You could just pay out those accounts (that didn't reach the payout minimum you set) at the end of the year. That would be an honest way to handle things and prevent the problem you are referring to. It would also encourage small and beginning affiliates to try your program. The way you are doing things right now creates the impression of a company that is so desperate it will do anything to save a buck.

Don't take this as a personal attack, see it as a word of advice. Removing that clause from your TOS will do a lot more to save your reputation and even promote your company while "our lawyers approved it" style posts usually attract more negative publicity on the boards.
