Well, I figured out at least partly how the payout is made. As always, I signed up for one of the sites before pushing it to my surfers. Right after sign-in, I am presented with another trial membership site and a few more sites in the email confirmation
"As an added bonus, you can take all 3 sites for FREE.
This is an exclusive offer only for new members. Enjoy!
SPECIAL ONE TIME LIMITED MEMBER BONUS. NO GIMMICKS.
100% FREE.CLICK BELOW TO JOIN ALL 3!!".
FREE as in Free trials that rebill, that is.
So, it looks like this business model isn't so revolutionary after all.
Same old premise...get the surfer to join as many sites as possible. Count on him forgetting to cancel at least one or more trials. If they don't forget, then get them on the sneaky "trial must be cancelled at least 24 hours before end of trial" clause found a few hundered words down in the T & C.
So the surfer still has a very good chance of getting at least a couple of rebills they weren't counting on.
I'm not saying this won't make webmasters a ton of money. I am saying that, if you jumped on this like I did because you thought this might finally be giving the surfer a fair shake...well sorry to disappoint.
