Maybe a sponsor would be willing to go 50/50 on the Acacia costs based on your sales as an affilaite. For example (I'm ignoring the processing fees etc to make it simple) -

Kingfish is an affiliate and he sells 10 memberships for October @ $20 = $200

Kingfish has earned himself $100 and has earned the Sponsor $100.

The sponsor gives you $50 which is half of what you earned for him so you can put this toward paying Acacia. Maybe Acacia will offer you a monthly payment plan to pay off your $1,500 LOL

Ok this is just an example but it is unfair to expect a sponsor to fork out the whole amount.
The 2% is from GROSS revenue, so even if you are in a 50/50 split, and despite the fact that you lose 50% to your affiliates/partners - you still pay 2% on the gross revenue, not net.
