Do you care about sponsors' reward points ?

Personally i dont give a fuck.....
Accumulated rewards points cause only problems what to chose, often complications or delays with placing the order and problems with shipping internationally ( but i know US webmasters dont have the last problem though... ).
So overall I'd rather see the sponsor paying $2 more per join instead of offering any reward points...

How about you ?

Its more $$$ for the sponsor.

Just like industry rebates. Not everyone will remember to send them in, etc. etc.

Free money for them, compared to upping the payout

It's something that's nice to have but the bottom line is what matters first.

More money will definitely do. Points are pretty cool, but anybody would ofcourse prefer money over points.

there extra, why does everyone think reward points are equivalent to giving more cash, there just extra for webmasters to keep promoting

Of course, everyone wants money instead of points, anyone knows that, the idea is that this system can always be stopped (without altering payouts) while a decrease in payouts would sound bad ...
