I believe it is possible to manage it, and we tried until a year or two ago, but honestly it takes too much time and risk for us to accept chat traffic in PPS mode. And so now we accept it only for cpa/ppl free signups. In any case, chat or not, 4 out of 5 new affiliates in cpa/ppl are fraudsters but they just make fake free signups with fake emails and IP addresses for $3 each, so is ok, this is not as bad as 100 PPS signups = $8000 chargebacks, or even 100 signups = $8000 paid from minimum 100x$10 = $1000 deposited... you can't win against this... so just one of these loss chat cases screws a dozen of other worth ones, can't live with suspect and terror this way.
When you have a new chat traffic affiliate making 10-20 paid signups a day, that can end up very bad quickly. Chat traffickers always send us screenshots of what they say it is their sales stats in other programs, as proof they're good, then I tell them: ok keep with that other program if does that well
