I can't imagine a reasonable person would ask an affiliate to send traffic in advance of an approval. We just want to know where and how our site would be promoted.

Affiliates are the first exposure to new surfers that will be visiting the sponsor site. If they do not make the right impression, then why bother having them? Unless you are running a niche site, you have no idea how screwed up some affiliates can be with regard to the way the present the material. Our site makes a LOT of our revenue from rebills. If the site is not sold properly, then members do not stick because their expectations were not met. In the worst cases, they chargeback. Since we don't let chargebacks just slide by and because we investigate each one of them, this costs us time which is certainly money.
