If you're having issues with the percentage of trials converting, IMO you'd be better off reducing the PPS payout and making revshare more attractive.

I can get $1-$4.95 for a trial signup at my revshare sponsors, and I get my percentage for the life of the membership. IMO there's no point in revshare that doesn't give me a cut of recurring memberships, and no point in PPS that pays out less than $20-$25.


We could potentially do a PPS but I am wary of doing that since it invites a higher affiliate fraud level. I am not sure how much we would be able to pay - though I would fare to guess it would be less than what others do... still I say the same thing which is we would only do what is fiscally sound and open to audit.
