Question About Affiliate Program

[gaystoryman]

Am wondering, what do you all do when you sign up for an affiliate who advertises say using ccBill and then when you go check the join page, find that yes they do go thru ccBill but then also list iBill as a choice as well as other means, of which your affiliate ID is useless?

First of all you should email them to find out what type of linking codes they are using, a lot of programs offer seperate billing processors but only 1 type of link code because that link code works with both processors

Well, when you click on their webmaster referral link, it takes you to the ccBill sign up and that is the referral code they give you... there is no mention that they use iBill or others in their webmaster info...

but worth an email i suppose... just seems awfully unethical to me that they even advertise only using ccBill and don't even hint at using iBill..

CCBil could be their main processor and iBill their backup so from that point of view it would make sense that there is no need to mention it as all a surfer should see in theory in the CCBill join page

not trying to be difficult Lee, but... the surfer goes to the join page and has to decide on choosing iBill or ccBill... so there is no way that they are using iBill as a backup... it is clearly visible that the surfer makes the choice...

they have 8 gay sites, 2 of them do this, 2 i have checked don't... they go directly to a ccbill sign up page..

so am rather wondering just what kind of stunt this is?

[Lee]

Ah didnt realize thats what they were doing.

Shoot them an email to find out if you are being credited with joins from both processors then
