These are ccbill sites. The affiliate costs are taken out before the webmaster (site owner) gets the check.
With nats the teptation is to spend the cash. I suspect many nats hope that affiliates do not hit the pay-out-level such as $100. There was a time many would pay out even at $10. Setting a level at $100 or so means that many small affilates will not hit that, and so the website can keep all the cas. The problem is that some do make a lot of sales.
PS.
I note the ccbill site quoted charges $34. So if the affiliate gets say $16 it leaves the website owner £16 or so. From that you have your costs.
7% of $34 is not going to make you rich unless you get a lot of sales.
The affiliate has costs too, but these are much less than the site owner.
