It's my understanding that "Scrubbing" is declining a bunch of credit cards based on a database they have in order to prevent fraud. It has nothing to do with shaving. When sales get bad, some people assume that processors like ccBill are scrubbing harder, i.e. declining more CCs.

The problem with CCBill sites (where you use the ccbill type link) is that they're cookie based, which means that a percentage of potential sales will be lost for affliates. Like anything, it all comes down to how much money you're making. I've got CCBill sponsors that convert 1:2000+ and other that are 1:150.
