Anyone else have AWEmpire "charge back" all their $222 PPS sales at the last minute?
 
I was looking forward to a great payment from AWEmpire for the period of Jun 1 - 15. What I was surprised to receive, however, was a fraction of the amount shown in the statistics as recently as Friday. On Saturday I received a payment that was less than a 1/4 of what had been owed to me, and today the stats are changed to show it almost all "charged back."

To me it just seems strange that at the very last moment, when a payment is made, stats are suddenly adjusted with a massive unexplained "charge back." Suddenly $222 PPS doesn't look so good any more.

IllTestYourGirls 07-11-2010 01:23 PM

Really? Shit and I just started making sales with them

pradaboy 07-11-2010 02:38 PM

That does sound shady man.

candyflip 07-11-2010 02:44 PM

$222 PPS - did you really expect to get paid so much for so little? :1orglaugh

I see promos like that, so avoid them like the plague.

TeenCat 07-11-2010 03:01 PM

from 1:800 with shitty forums traffic two years back to 1:9000+ this year with seo and clicked traffic ... what a joke awe is ... bump for you to get this solved! :)

Sausage 07-11-2010 03:13 PM

I checked and while its not as drastic as yours, I had the same thing happen. Then again i am to blame, I heard they were dodgy and pushed them anyway.

CashOnClick 07-11-2010 03:31 PM

Never had a major problem with AWE, with my personal sites 1:200 ratio at worst, if you take the time to look into the $222 PPS campaign and how there system works you will understand why they can afford to pay that amount out and the reasons for doing so... That is why anyone that has been promoting AWE for a long period of time with any success will always stick to REVS and never PPS no matter what... unless you want to make a fast buck and fuck off...

No complaints here... Just speaking as I find guys that is all :)

It's happened again!? "Whoops...AWE Pressed the Wrong Button" :1orglaugh

Seriously though, even $70-$100 PPS promos was a lot back in the day. $222, especially given the current conditions of the adult biz and processing restrictions, is insane!

Makes one wonder how can AWE afford that - likely they can't and hence all the disqualified signups / credit reversals.

lmao, you promote a site that funds tubes, and this is what you are going to get. Fuck AWE. How many tubes does live jasmine pop under on? Nearly all of them.

What is the PSID's though ? .. I have looked into this also and found a couple to be genuine AWE staff PSID's and others to be just Affiliate accounts ?

Haha, why am I not surprised at all?

It's pretty safe to assume that most of AWE's top "affiliates" are internally controlled.

Companies do things like this because affiliates let them.

Does anybody ever ask for proof of chargebacks?

The timing of these seems very fortunate (for AWE).

korke 07-15-2010 11:22 PM

Same happen to me. I got 2 sales with there promo 222$. and now I see -484$ in my stats!!! wtf is happening. didn't received anything from support yet but I hope everything will be solved.

IllTestYourGirls 07-16-2010 05:38 AM

Just got a $40 charge back out of the whole 2 sales I sent them. Pretty high charge back ratio. I rarely get any charge backs.

Mickey_ 07-16-2010 05:57 AM

Please submit a support ticket via our affiliate area and it will be looked into.

Inter-Sex 07-16-2010 10:55 AM

So Mickey, you sig is huge, or my eyes are very....

korke 07-16-2010 09:09 PM

Mhh this month I had 5 PPS sales with them and 3 chargebacks. WOW this month just rockin for me... Considering that I had 2 CB in whole 2009 years this numbers are pretty sick.

:1orglaugh:1orglaugh

The sheep who fall for this promo shit ( Not directed at you korke) still boggles my brain.

korke 07-16-2010 10:48 PM

I dont pushed them more then regularly after this promo. just iframes in sidebars. so thats a little bit strange. And yeah it was nice to get 222 then 40$ signups :)
all those promos from Imlive with 300$ and awe 222$ sounded little bit fishy but if they want to do that why not :)

dynastoned 07-16-2010 10:57 PM

lol wow @ everyone in this thread that made sales got charge backs with this promo.

dav3 07-16-2010 11:11 PM

revshaaaaare!

TheSenator 07-16-2010 11:15 PM

My rev share whales will always beat your PPS.

TubeSubmitters 07-17-2010 12:10 AM

Same here, got chargebacks on the bonus signups, guess they pressed the wrong button...

Man is there a single site/program you do make sales with? Seems like every thread about a program you are there saying how bad they are, maybe the shitty ratios is due to shitty traffic?

LongBG 07-17-2010 01:01 AM

With a PPS like that, really... WTF were you expecting?

Adult is full of gullible webmasters.

Horny Joe 07-17-2010 05:28 AM

I still can't get over the tier1 referral I had, that made me almost $2,000 in one month and then.... gone! Reason: "he probably moved to another program...."

Problem is, awe is still my sexond best sponsor so I can't afford dropping them as no other cam prog makes any $ for me...

korke 07-17-2010 05:50 AM

:) ok half of you telling to use revs cause you will make big bucks with it. But I am comfortable when I get those shitty 222$ per sale. And I think the AWE is the winner if we pick a PPS. they get all the whales we sent that was the deal with this promo.

CunningStunt 07-30-2010 04:11 AM

There's no way they can legitimately pay $222 PS, even as a loss leader. If you fell for their BS you're a sap.

I tried and dropped them like a stone a long time ago.

This is merely an assumption on your part as you do not know the avg. user lifetime value. Again, these members are paying for live video chat services, not paying to see pictures/videos @ 29.99 per month. An entirely different game. No catch here, as long as the person you brought is new (matches the PPS requirements) and buys a package of at least 29.99 credits, we'll pay out $222 PPS. you can review the rules on this page: http://www.awempire.com/adult-affili...ster-benefits/ Any affiliate is free to do a test signup as long as they let us know afterwards. It's as transparent as it can get...

man what every thread? i posted maybe about three or four programs that are not making me money? man there is more than four programs, you have to know after 9 years on gfy :)

charlie g 07-30-2010 05:45 AM

It used to be the rev share was only for 6 months. Has that changed?

MrBottomTooth 07-30-2010 06:17 AM

I've sent 5714 uniques since the middle of June and made 4 sales, 3 of them were $222 sales, and one was for $40, but since there was something to do with a 111% promo it got bumped up to $84.

So that's $750 for 4 sales, with a ratio of 1:1429. Not too shabby I think for such a small amount of traffic and considering everybody and their dog was pushing them at the same time because of the amazing PPS promo.

Give them a try here if you'd like.:thumbsup

I'm going to switch to revshare after the promo is over to see how that works.

AWE's Lifetime+ was introduced last year.
Lifetime+ pays Lifetime rev share after new members (tracked on a DB level) plus14 day revshare after old members (tracked via cookies). The best of both worlds.

That's fine if someone was accusing you of basic shaving (not counting signups), but the issue in this thread is transactions that were reversed at a later date... :2 cents:

fris 07-30-2010 06:53 AM

ya sure offer 90,000$ pps doesnt matter if the company charges back

All ok here with the PPS promo. I was honestly expecting something shady from their end, but to my surprise, i gotta admit, all is ok. Hats off to AWE.

~Ray 07-30-2010 08:00 AM

I signed up. Thanks for the referral. Should do great

Kenny B! 07-30-2010 08:10 AM

This is why I pushed the I'm live $300pps and got paid on all sales and rather quickly too.

Half man, Half Amazing 07-30-2010 09:26 AM

Just know whatever money you made them was donated to the needy out there...the tubes and forums like pornbb. Way to go guys!

AWE is a bunch of d-bags, present company included.
