Re: how PPS should work vs revshare, assuming the affiliate is not doing anything fraudulent (I'm not of course)

PPS is like getting an upfront average of what your traffic can produce. You may bring in some whales that rebill for a year, and you may bring in some jackwads that chargeback after 2 days. With PPS, the program comes up with a price per sale that makes them feel comfortable with the risk to reward.

Revshare is simply a partnership split and whatever happens, happens to everyone involved. Get a whale, everyone gets a piece, get a chargeback, everyone gets a piece.. etc
