Things to watch out for in these small programs:
1) do you get exit traffic credit to other sites in their program?
2) are there any "outs" on their tour leading to places you don't make money? This happens a lot with amateur sites
3) are the members areas good enough to recur?
can you think of anything else to watch for?

But aren't these concerns present in Pay Per Sign up progs as well? Do you trust PPS any more than Partnerships? Maybe with partnerships [at least the ones that use a 3rd party processor with affiliate viewable stats] you trade exit/upsell/cross sell traffic for transparency. With PPS it may be the other way around.
