Don't AFF selling a dating product that has very few or no women enrolled? Screwing surfers.

Don't they advertise on Tube sites sucking your traffic away from you? Screwing affiliates.

So surprise surprise they had a "glitch" in the programming.

If you swim with sharks you might get bit.

There was also some kind of involvement with Zango?

Paul, who said anything about a glitch, besides them, not me! This was all about their "safety valve" so they don't have to pay affiliates what they agreed to years ago

I almost made a post about this several days ago. If I didn't truly like Sagi I would have. I got fucked out of my arrangement as well. I'm testing other programs now to see who will make me more money.

Oh, and payments have NOT gone out. I switched my payout from epassporte to paypal. I haven't seen a dime from AFF in a month now.

I haven't dealt with Sagi a lot but I know Andrea has been great, but this isn't about the reps ability to their jobs and liking them, I've never questioned that. This is about AFF repeated ability to fuck affiliates and get away with it. And that alone is worthy this post.

Has them going public been completely taken off the table? If not stuff like this won't bode well for them...

no no its a glitch, it will be corrected in 48 hours :upsidedow


Interesting that they will use paypal. Seems risky since paypal doesn't allow anything adult related. I know it's not for members joining the site, but still payments being sent from an adult site.

V_RocKs 09-21-2010 07:48 AM
Payouts all fucked up for ePassporte switches.... Seems they delay you until the next payment...

goldfish 09-21-2010 08:06 AM
Oh great its fixed to bad most of my sales are gone, evidently they don't pay for reorders anymore...

"On our adult sites sliding scale we pay affiliates a cut of the initial orders and the renewals (when the member auto-renews). On our mainstream sites we pay affiliates on initial and reorders (when the member lets their membership expire and then orders again). Your account was on a very special cut where you got a percentage of all three order types, but with the safety valve in place on days where less than 5 initial orders come in you will get a percentage cut of initial and renewals based on the sliding scale payout."

Yet I just copied this from their stats page...
"As a percentage affiliate, you will get a percentage of all future orders and reorders by the 18748 members who have joined so far provided that your affiliate account is still active - we reserve the right to deactivate accounts who stop sending traffic."

I just love this change the rules on the fly so it makes the numbers work shit....

I received paypal last period but have not received the latest payout yet.

bolsex 09-21-2010 08:24 AM
I need to say that they paid me all money for Aug/2010 thro Check via UPS. Also my partners got their earnings thro Payoneer without problem.
This period was not sent out yet! No money in Payoneer waiting to be accepted from AFF.

The numbers you are seeing reflect sales in 2004-2005, the point of that image was to prove I never sold over 200+ membership when the higher payout was put in place... In other words the reason they are saying I got the special payout it BS.

I don't make nearly that now, in fact with this new "safety valve" I am getting $36.98 so far this pay period!

Agent 488 09-21-2010 08:30 AM
checks are fucking gay.

Babaganoosh 09-21-2010 08:39 AM
After this payout change conversion rates took a massive dive. Sorry AFF, I call bullshit. You guys must be having serious financial issues if you're willing to fuck one of your oldest affiliates and one of the few that has backed you up in the past through thick and thin.

Fuck the long story, this statement totally makes sense. Hope they resolve your issue fast and you get your money.


This is why i prefer PPS, these managers never stop kissing your ass.

This thread is getting ugly. I hope they aren't going to try to use the epassporte issue as an excuse to not pay all affiliates on time.

Don't say that too loud they will give you a special payout and then renege on it later! :winkwink:

Tempest 09-21-2010 08:55 AM
What does AFF care if you're not happy with them screwing you over.. They've been doing it for awhile now and yet people keep sending them traffic so clearly they've seen that affiliates are quite happy to be fucked over. Their model is one of extortion. Keep sending us traffic or we'll stop paying you and will slowly fuck you out of your rebills etc.

It sucks if you spent years building up rebills. But sometimes you have to take a stand and say fuck you back and just walk away.

Hmmm that's interesting. Two years ago I lost a LOT of rebills from an AVS company (not sure if I want to mention their name at this point). When I asked about the reason of the lost rebills, I was told that during one pay period I hadn't made any new sales and because of that I lost all rebills... They then wrote me that they would make me 'VIP webmaster' to make sure that something like this wouldn't happen again...

At the time I basically just accepted it, but now that they read this thread... Interesting...

That's what I am doing, standing up and saying fuck you, but walking away is not part of my personality! The 30 seconds it takes me to keep this thread going is no bother to me, in fact if it saves others from the same BS all the better.

Nevermind that it is now basically public record and who know where that might lead in the future....

Ahh but see the difference is I HAVE made new sales. Not saying what they did was right either just saying there is a bit of a difference here...

Thats the problem I am having is nothing converts as well, but I am working on a solution, I'll post it here when I get everything settled. :winkwink:

This is my problem too and why I like AFF. I used lot of dating programs! I didnt get NO ONE that could made at least 30%-40% of what I earn every period with AFF.
Anyway, Im still testing new sponsors and campaigns.

trannysphere 09-21-2010 10:38 AM
guys do you promote cams.com as well?

do you really need to get 50$ more on each sites let say cams.com and adultfriendfinder.com to get payout? i have $41 on aff and 20$ cams.com so i can;t get any payout and its there for years. damn

Robbie 09-21-2010 10:42 AM

push some more traffic, a few hundred clicks a day for a few months should bring you way over the payout limit. Use the cams.com cobranded tools, put it up, push a few campaigns, and you should be able to get confirmed spenders soon

Feel free to icq me on 104030, i will be happy to help you on your way

0% or 0.02% is not accepted!
exactly :2 cents:

we will pay our affiliates more than 100 million dollars this year alone. not too many adult programs can claim that.

and on that same note, we are fully audited by a third party. our numbers are soild. we can legally prove it
no comment on referring whales, but still have to be active in order to get paid?

say someone refers someone that makes over a million in sales, but you refuse to pay out the referal to that webmaster just because he isnt currently sending traffic, while you continue to profit off the person he reffered with no gripes.

:helpme

Forget a million in sales, $250k and counting should be more than sufficient!

mmm after the epass problem I requested a special UPS check!
The latest period was paid out on sep-8th, and the check was issued on sep-10th, so I think that your check will be emailed tomorrow? or maybe today!

Payoneer money was received because I got it for this latest period.
