Some CCBill questions, about rebills...

10-27-2011, 05:12 PM

In the affiliate side on the view program details, theres a section for:
Recurring Subscriptions: Payments for Rebills End After: (Zero) rebills

Does that mean the site doesn't pay for rebills? Some sponsors have that set at unlimited. Some at 9999,some at 365. Some sponsors are saying they have a 50/50 revshare program, but have this set at zero, so is it by accident or is that purposeful deceit? How can you revenue share without paying for rebills? They should change their signup pages to say one time payout. Anyone else ever check those because i had promoted several that i noticed to have the zero rebills thing after the fact. Thoughts?

I don't know, but since noone more knowledgeable replied, I'll hazard a guess. Often, in a database or software where you have a numeric limit, zero is used to represent "unlimited". Zero may in fact mean unlimited rebills, but the system stores a number there, so it can't accept a word such as "unlimited".

That's just a guess, a possibility, since no one replied with a knowledgeable answer

Zero could also mean zero rebills.

Its been so long I can't remember for ccbill. I thought they displayed the text "unlimited".
My current merchant account, which only I see shows 0 with description 0 means unlimited.

I have a suspicion if you are an affiliate that means 0 rebills.

What i suspect also but it not that there are not any rebills with certain programs that bother me its that they advertise 50/50 revshare or something similar. Can this be control on a per affiliate basis? For example a little while ago there was a thread here talking about a program that had great sales and rebills, but when i look at this program in the back end it says (zero)...

Don't quote me, but if I remember correctly, if it is setup as a % and has 0 it means all rebills.

For some reason I have that stuck in my head but am not 100% sure. It's been awhile since i've been in the program setup side of CCBILL.

I think you are correct. I remember the same thing being discussed in the past. The answer was that 0 is correct, meaning there is NO limit to the potential rebills. If it said 3, then that meant that it would only rebill a possible 3 times...

So zero is correct.

I was gonna go and have a look at the programs I'm with, knowing a specific one that has no rebills, but after 5 minutes fucking around with their wanky system gave up. Christ, what was the criteria for the new look - make it as awkward as fucking possible to see a list of your programs?

Lots of bad information here. It should read "Payments for Rebills End After: (Unlimited) rebills". If it reads zero there is a good chance you will NOT get credit for rebills!

Now there was supposedly a bug many years ago which resulted in some programs showing this incorrectly when it was first changed but we are talking 2006 or 2007.

You should contact CCBill and the program owner for confirmation of any site which reads "Payments for Rebills End After: (Zero) rebills". You should also consider disclosing it here so others can check their own settings.

You don't like my posts? Put me on ignore or fuck right off. I'll say what I want.

"Payments for Rebills End After: (Unlimited) rebills", is certainly one for unlimited rebills.

Zero means you don't get credit for rebills.

I have: Payments for Rebills End After: (Unlimited) rebills

On 3 I know rebill.

Could be a database error though and 0 means unlimited. But isn't displaying proper, or the sponsor you are mentioning is a piece of shit.

Just found 1 which has this: Payments for Rebills End After: (Zero) rebills

Probably a 1 time join, or a shit company. Or perhaps BOTH!

It's nothing personal I wasn't calling you out or anything but I am fairly sure because I've seen it before and remember reading all the different discussions on it over the years. I also am an affiliate of nearly 500 ccbill programs and I monitor them carefully so I usually know what is normal and what is unusual.

Jel- in the old affiliate admin it is under tools and then I think something like show program details. I forget the exact wording.

OK, sorry mate

Being honest, I had my panties in a wad, from something else that was posted on another forum, so sorry if I sounded 'In Your Face' so to speak...

I simply do remember this exact same thread though - From a few years ago, and it got really heated - Then ccBill came in, and said what I remember... But hey... I could well be wrong...

This is the exact reason why I am 100% self Sufficient these days, and dont rely on any sponsors at all..

Peace

It sort of is, but isn't, although I've now found it, I have to go to "View today's transactions", whereas I'd expect it to be a link in that dashboard (where I currently see a news feed). Once you know, it's easy, but navigation sucks cock upon initial login.

Anyway just to check what the program that gives no rebills displays... oh fucking hell lol, I click on Tools and get an error

An error has occurred. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Apologies for my delalyed response. Couldn't have said it better myself. That issue mentioned above was actually 2004 though.

My biggest issue is not the fact that they dont pay on rebills, its the fact that some that dont pay on them advertise a 50/50 revshare program. I did some digging and found a thread daizzy posted showing lots of ccbill programs that were intentionally or unintentionally configured incorrectly. http://gfy.com/showthread.php?t=9736...cbill+programs

Yes, a complete cunt's trick that sullies the CCBill name in my opinion.

I would love for CCBill to be able to take more control over people using their system.
