CCBill sales

My affiliate sales are 35% down compared to 2 months ago. I even have more affiliate accounts now. Am I the only one?

Ever since I moved from CCbill to Verotel my sales have jumped by 100 % without an increase in chargebacks. CCbills scrub rate used to be terrible and it is now worse. Thank goodness I don't get those stupid declined emails anymore

No one with an affiliate program is going to admit that sales are down, they don't want to scare away affiliates. If sale totally stopped they would say they're having a "record month".

Unfortunately that does seem to be true, you end up just ignoring them

My thoughts are that there can be many reasons for traffic/sales going up or down. I had mentioned this on here before, but if you are concerned that the billing or tracking portion of it is not working, you can test it out with your own card. It would give you the same perspective as a surfer?

I heard some rumors from other people that sales have dropped because of the new recent rules. Not every ccard from every country gets accepted that quick anymore. Therefore it's no use if it's really true to test it with my own card. My card is like gold

While are overall sales have increase, the number of decline emails I get from ccbill is nearly 1 for every two sale. This is a recent trend that I have been noticed over the past few weeks. I'm getting about 30-40 declines a day, where I used to get 2 or 3 on avarage. Now, in ccbills defense, out traffic is much higher then it was a couple months ago, but I still do not think its up enough to justify the declines we get everyday. I know I dont speak for everyone, but within the circle or programs we do business with... this is the trend they are experiencing also.

CCbill took on a ton of new business when Globill went down. I'm wondering if they had to increase there scrub rate to balance the large influx of new business. Also, there seems to be little discussion on ccbills part regarding the upcoming Visa regs and how they are effecting us.

Just curious

I had AC/EGS Pay and CCbill on my pay sites and most of my sales came through AC.. Since that closed, sales haven't moved over to CCBill.. They've near enough stopped and the declined email % has gone up !!!

And my AC/EGS affiliates did better than any of my CCBill ones.. This pisses me as I've used CCBill since early 99..

I have noticed a a definite increase in the number of declines over the past two weeks - and fewer sign-ups. I finally bit the bullet and paid the Visa fee, but according to CCBill, Visa acceptance has been taking longer lately - usually 14 business days.

This is just depressing - my sales dropped when lancelot went down and I switched to GloBill - they increased after awhile, but never to the same level. Now it is happening again - I'm just praying that the addition of Visa will truly improve sales...

there should be decline reasons listed, where you can drill down to see the specifics

if you have concerns about your sales, feel free to contact your sales rep or myself (so that I can get you in touch with somebody)
