You inadvertently bring up a significant issue. More people now are bankless and they are using those prepaid cards. Rev share isn't quite the same deal it used to be unless the sponsor is using long term cookie tracking and/or consumer-affiliate linking based on email addresses or such. How many of these people with prepaid cards will join once, cancel, then come back next month or in a few months? The affiliate often is getting nothing but the initial.
It seems to me it isn't the affiliate who wants their cake and to eat it too but it is the sponsor. An affiliate used to be able to choose PPS to not have to worry about this situation since they would be compensated up front at a flat rate. But now those prepaid cards are rev share only which means the join-cancel-join again in two months cycle is all the more likely. If a company wants to be ethical in doing this then they need to match the customer's email and/or address to the affiliate whereby if the customer comes back within a year or whatever the affiliate still gets their cut. Fair is fair.
