I'm not speaking of your program here but we do tend to get pissed if we get fifty cents while there is a $40 pre-checked cross sale on the form or the member's area is loaded with cam and VOD upsells. If you're running a clean program without that stuff then we tend not to get upset. Some still hate it though because of the potential for abuse. How do we know the sponsor isn't emailing the people who didn't convert to a full join again after the affiliate cookie expires and grabbing the sale for themselves? Affiliates now exist in a culture of expecting to be cheated. It's made for a lot of distrust. It's easier to just refuse to send to trials on revshare rather than investigate and have to trust someone.
