Exactly. There is a contractual obligation to pay affiliates what they're owed. The only legal way out is bankruptcy.
Otherwise, it's theft. The affiliate could have sent the join instead to a competing website and received the money for it...
It's no different than hiring a contractor to fix your house and refusing to pay for it... Affiliates are 'contractors' hired to generate traffic and sales..
