Epoch terminating sponsors

tickler · 2009-01-14, 01:39 AM

I don't really like the way this is sounding, and it looks like affiliates might be SOL as far as revshare goes.

I guess I'm going to end up spending most of tomorrow reviewing a lot of my sponsors.

Xbiz says they should have more information coming.

Epoch Sends 24-Hour Termination Notices to Several Adult Clients
An anonymous source exclusively told XBIZ that within the last six months several large adult affiliate networks have received termination notices from Epoch, an IPSP, stating it will cease providing processing services within 24 hours for unspecified reasons.

Letters would make all active members, rebills void within one business day.

I'm guessing that very very few of these programs are revshare. Just a hunch.

If you are an affiliate with any of these, as of yet, unnamed programs you've probably already been paid for the initial sale and any rebills to date, but future rebills for those sales billed through Epoch will have been cancelled.

My best guess is that Epoch was probably not the primary processor for these programs, but a second or third option in their billing cascade. So even if you were promoting them using revshare the majority of sales would most likely not have been through Epoch.

All purely speculation at this point based on the limited info posted. The "more info tomorrow" noted at the end of of the story has since been updated to later this week. I don't think we'll ever know for certain who was terminated, but we may get some better hints as to why.
