I apologize if I have you confused with someone else.

My points were:

(1) A lot of standalone programs depend upon NATS to be able to do their accounting. Maybe you think that makes them small time, but enough programs use NATS that I think NATS should make it more feasible for those sponsors to make payouts in a way where they can keep track of them.

(2) The payout thresholds were set at a time when sales were more robust and it was reasonable to expect that affiliates would reach those payout levels in a timely fashion. Now that those amounts are less realistic for affiliates to reach in a timely fashion, perhaps the break levels should change to keep up with the times.

NATS is very good program .. it has nothing to do with nats... like john said you can set your min payout to 1 cent if you want to.... nats is very trusted and very good backend ...

that being said... your saying that payout min are to high right and that they should be lower so that say if it's 10 bucks then you'd get paid on your 1 sale every payperiod right?

look at google adsense ... if im not mistaken the min payout you can get is 100 bucks right? if anyone keeps up with the times it's google right?

like I said it's program owner discretion as to the min payout they will pay... 100 bucks is common cause i'd say 60% of affiliates won't reach the min payout.. then the program owner does not pay... he profits all the way around... very common in adult.. mainstream, anything really... you can't just cry cause you can;t collect your earnings until you reach min payout.. I know it sucks.. we have all been there .... but it's in place to keep the profit up for the business...
