I have to agree with Greg and SICCash with this. I have seen this before on the other side of the fence. Back then, we would either send an email saying "Thank You for the business but we need to switch you to revshare" Or, before revshare, "Thank You for the business but we need to say goodbye". You have to applaud a program that does neither. They seem to be taking the time to work with less than profitable accounts.

While it is a program's responsibility to keep members, no matter what you do, certain accounts will send people that sign up but just don't stay. I have seen this with certain types of sites. It isn't anyone's fault...you just have to live with it.

So AcidMaX, you do have a choice. You can still do well at $20/sign-up or move on. I would think about what they could have done other than trying to continue making money for both you and them.

And, welcome to GreenguyandJim, Greg

I understand they are there to make a profit as well. Maybe I need to look at their TOS and see if it says they can drop my payouts at anytime.

However I disagree with you. If you are going to start a program then it needs to RETAIN! I look at what I do as SicCash buying traffic from me. Granted as I said I am still making .04 per raw and will continue to keep them on my link list, if I did this to a traffic compnay they wouldn't allow it. To me it just seems like a ploy to make a little more money to be honest. If they take $5 from quite a few webmasters it adds up. I don't know if the users are actually being retained, they very well might be, this could just be a way for them to make another buck or two. Now before someone thinks I am accusing them of that, I am not, just a point.

I also look at it like this. What about the other hundreds/thousands of clicks I have sent to SicCash?? Who says they didnt make a cross sale to another program with one of my clicks that they made $35 or something off of and I didn't see a dime. So even though I sent them signups that maybe didnt retain on their members areas they very well could have made money off the cross sales/up sells they have on the other sites.

Now upon checking the signups on SicCash this is what I found when visiting one of their mature sites. This is on the epoch join page.

Click here to signup for a 1 day No Charge Membership to Sloppy Fuck Flixxx - No Charge One Day Trial Membership. After 1 day, Membership renews automatically at $39.95 every 1 month.

Click here to signup for a 1 day No Charge Membership to All Nudes - One Day Trial Membership. After 1 day, Membership renews automatically at $34.72 every 1 month.

Both of those are checked by default. So not only would the user I sent (if he doesnt uncheck those) get charged $39 or so for the MILF site I was at , but also $39.95 to Sloppy Fuck Flixxx and $34.72 for All Nudes. This means the user would wind up spending $100 a month on porn with SicCash..and they cannot afford to pay me the proper amount for signups?

To me when looking at the cross sales, upsells on their sites they should definitely not be taking anyones payouts down.
