Signups only paid if surfer stays 4+ hours

[Opti]

I doubt many (if any) of your surfers signup, never login, and then cancel within 4 hours.

Does anyone who runs their own paysite with CCbill or similar revshare billing ever see this happen?

The sponsor is just being upfront about what constitutes a scam signup to them imho... I would assume most PPS signup programs would not pay you if they detected that same thing happening. Probably by closing your account and refusing to even speak to you... they just don't declare it in the TOS so clearly.

I agree with you opti. This is used as fraud prevention, I would suspect.

In my CCbill stats I see quite a few that signup for trial memberships that cancel immediately after joining, knowing that they'll still have access for the full length of the trial membership. That's the reason I usually avoid promoting sites that pay a percentage and also have low priced trials.

Who are these surfers that pony up their Credit Cards but never even try to log into the paysites? But can still find the website link or CC processor needed to cancel within 4 hours?

Seriously.. do any of you guys really think you are sending genuine surfers that do that ever?

And if the customer has never received the goods... and have cancelled that incomplete order, are people saying that should equate to a signup to be paid out on? (maybe that sponsors TOS will answer that one as well)

Imho, Good Fraud Control = Good Management = More Profit = Less Reason To Risk Cheating Your Affiliates
