If you are then I can understand why you would ponder this. The sponsors of course realize that they can make a buck or two on totally new webmasters who get lucky sending one or two members but they don't give it a second thought I betcha. No, the main reason is of course that there HAS to be a minimum payout. I don't know how it works in other countries, but here if I want to cash a check it costs me $10 (see we've already set a minimum). Some pay out as low as $20 and several per sign up programs even bother to send you a $30 check. However the bottom line is there has to be a minimum and the fact that a lot (most) make it $50 just makes good sense in my book because then I would get out $40 of that and that would almost make it worth a trip to the bank?........
you make a good point, didnt realize about how you have to pay to cash a check where you are from. Im an affiliate for a few main stream sites, most don't have minimum payouts. (I've received checks for under $2 dollars before) But i guess the bottom line is that it will make the sponsor some extra money.
