I would describe it as something that lowers the actual $/click the sponsor is bidding for my traffic.
For example:
SponsorA gets 100 clicks from me and brings in 3 sales. He could pay me 90PPS for the 3 sales or he could shave 1 sale and pay me 60PPS instead.
If he pays me 90 he is paying me .90 per click. If he pays me 60 he is paying me .60 per click. If he wants to have leaks that lower his bid or check processing fees that lower his bid per click to me... that's all his problem. If he pays me too little he loses my traffic to someone else who pays me more.
Here is the mind-blowing part. You are getting EXACTLY the same deal explained above... you just pretend you are not, and sponsors pretend you are not. In reality you get exactly what someone actually pays you and you send exactly the number of clicks you know you sent. All the rest is nonsense.
Send clicks, calculate actual $/click, decide where to send your clicks again next time. It's MATH. Up to, could, should, would, I wish, it would be nice if, etc... are all nonsense terms in the affiliate business.
