[BUSINESS] minimum payments even legal?

[fetishnews]

One of the big mistakes newbs make (I did it too) is to register at a lot of sponsors, never make enough to get the minimum amount met each pay cycle.

If you are making sales it never comes up only the small webbies get butt hurt over this

ok as a program owner, i can tell you that you HAVE to have a minimum payout and you have to stick with it. Otherwise you get people asking you to pay out silly amounts like $25 cos they made one sale

We set ours at $100 and we NEVER close a live affiliate account no matter how little its making. The money is always there when they eventually reach the target

Like any affiliate system, 80% of your sales come from your top 20% of affiliates.

The rest is spread out across thousands of smaller affiliates who might only make the occasional sale every now and then. But because we have such a high rebill ratio (we do 3 times more rebills than we do sales) then the occasional sale is often all they need to make some good money. So, to us its worthwhile keeping these small affiliates on board no matter how few sales they send
