Just send them to another site and pocket all the revenue and don't split it. Or any other number of scams you can pull.

True it'll show in the numbers eventually but why waste all that traffic to find this out? And most affiliates don't bother paying attention that's why they do it and get away with it.



The problem with that reasoning is they are usually the next ones to fuck you because they've demonstrated they don't give a shit about you. With PPS you take the money and run. It's no big deal. You pull links and move on. Rev share is different. Sending traffic to a revshare program is a calculated investment as well as a gamble. That's the way I look at it. Again, 98% of CCBill programs are revshare.
