Not saying that it does...just saying that since it doesn't make any sense for them to give me 70% while they are making pennies...then they are forced to find a way to make their money. I've had plenty of programs offer me high percentages over the years, and some of them do pay me those higher percentages. But I always tell them that I would rather stay at 50/50 so everybody is happy and everybody makes money. A good program should be able to make you great money at 50/50 and with a lot less worry about shaving or cutting off your rebills down the road. If everybody is happy and everybody makes money...it's a win/win.
I agree, i think 70-90% is just insane for payouts, unless the affiliate is innovative and really going that extra mile, but for a typical gallery submitter or tgp owner, I would be happy putting them at 40%

shit, how about that? a program that bases percentage of payout on a sliding scale based on quality of traffic? starting at 40% and going to 65-70%, taking all aspects of the joins into play, member retention, initial conversions, how much extra they require from you as the sponsor outside your typical tools, etc
