its called shaving and/or pre checked cross sales....

do the math:

membership = $39.95
payout = $250.00
profit= -$210.05

yes, makes total business sense because we know that members typically rebill for 12 months or more... LOL

Not impossible when you make the $250 payout requirements hard to find/follow...such as the fine print stating you must contact the sponsor for every sale made on that day immediately...

So who wants to sit at their computer all day waiting for that one sale?

your kidding right? Do you know how many fucking people will have their grandma sign up and maybe the dog, they would get caught shaving on that day with all the people that knew they clicked the right links,
This thread alone is one reason why they do it

Welll.... if adult companies know they are going to make money from their associates then why not pay them like a one shot sign up fee $ 250 to get them going... like putting some if it toward buying traffic... they would earn it back in short order and have tuns of webmasters going out of their way to promote such a company...

Well just an idea

Then you'd have people signing up just for the signing fee and leaving the sponsor for dead on the highway. With some program owners I've talked to, theres usually between 5-15% of real active affiliates who promote and send traffic to a program, the other deadbeats are usually surfers looking for extra content without signing up.

Go join, then check your CC statement. ;)

edit: I guess I'll be fair. This is only true with some sponsors, not all.
