Is this legitimate grounds for a sponsor not paying an affiliate?

I dunno if it merits you not being paid. Saying that tho, 50% chargebacks is fucking high. Aren't you supposed to be at 1% with CCBill?

Depends. Did you send 2 sales and get a chargeback?

Or did you send 100 and 50 charged back?

exactly, over how many sales ... ?

This was over a year ago, so I guess chargeback % wasn't as big of an issue in this industry. It was one of those sponsors with the "free trials" but has fine print stating they will be charged $20 for another website as well.

These particular chargebacks are the only ones I have heard of that came through traffic I sent anywhere.

It was only 4 sales

4 sales. 2 chargedback or 4 sales and 4 chargebacks?

Its only $40 or $80. Maybe there was a minimum amount before getting a cheque ??

4 sales 2 chargebacks @ $70 per sale. My minimum is $50.

I have talked to them about this. 6 months after sending the sales I contacted them and they told me my account was put on hold for no appearant reason. They also said my check would be sent "next week".

6 months after THAT... still no check. Contacted them again, and that's where they told me my account had a 50% chargeback rate. It's been about another 3-4 months since then and I'm thinking about contacting them and asking to at least send payment for sales which didn't result in a chargeback.

Does that sound reasonable?

unfortunately, i don't think they have to be reasonable. also, you only sent 4 sales. i don't think they are really concerned with you.
