The only thing I can think of is that when you're doing mad volume, you're not just getting paid commission on sales. its brand marketing at that point, you're getting paid CPM or monthly media buys.
these super-affiliates do so much volume that it might be worth it for chaturbate to buy it at a loss because what's their alternative? stripchat or another competitor will buy the traffic.
I know for sure that these cam sites buy pops in large volumes at a "loss" because they're buying brand awareness. you and me couldn't participate in that game because we need positive ROI to make it work. but chaturbate's like....probably a billion dollar company....they have a massive marketing budget and they can't really expect an immediate positive ROI.
so....brand marketing? its the only thing I can think of.
and yeah, they're probably saturated enough that its tough for small affiliates to make real money off new signups. Colmike won that game years ago before shit got saturated LOL. But they still have to buy shitloads of traffic to maintain brand awareness.
