Consumers have always used prepaid cards, it's nothing new, and there's nothing odd about that. What is odd is that when 2 affiliates push the same site, one on rev share and one on PPS, the PPS affiliate has 3-5 times as many prepaid joins as the revshare one.
I see your point. But that fact is a given and needs to be part of risk management. On the contrary some programs get customers spending 10k on cams for the cost of a 3 Dollar free signup payment to an affiliate. I guess we agree that prepaids are not the issue, but poor risk management in some companies.
