Dear All,
Due to another big group of fraudulent affiliates abusing our CPA model, VIP Profits has decided to no longer offer CPA as a regular commission option.
We are now taking the same course that many other programs have already taken and offer CPA on request only and after a screening process.
It bothers me that this step has to be taken, but we are left no other choice.
Current affiliates on CPA will stay on this deal, however, all will be monitored and screened again to make sure those with bad intentions will be filtered out.
Therefore, sincere affiliates have nothing to worry about, but others do.
VIP Profits always has and will continue to pay affiliates on time and for the correct amount.
I simply refuse to pay out ANY affiliate that is not practising out of good faith.
Also, I rather spend $500 to not pay a fraudulent affiliate that I supposedly owe $50!
That is a sound decision.
I am glad to hear it.
This business model is just a pain in the axx for everyone. (including moderators who have to deal with complaints launched by fraudsters).
Good going!
Yes – it is a good decision.
But it’s too easy to tar affiliate fraud as the resason. Perhaps you should be validating and vetting affiliates BEFORE they join anyway?
The reality is that it is customer behaviour (bonus hunting) that you are complaining about and that will remain under a rev-share model too.
:popcorn:Not screening affiliates to the bone upon sign up is a choice VIP Profits has made in the past and with good reasons, which I will not go into now.
This has nothing to do with bonus hunting players, but affiliates that are abusing the CPA model intentionally! I am talking about over 50 “affiliates” here;
Bonus hunting is not necessarily done with bad intent. This is a known phenomenon.
THowever, thEse guys are cheating and stealing from us and that is criminal behavior!This is not possible under a rev share model.
I now exactly what you are talking about, Mario.
It is best not to get too explicit so not to put ideas in some people’s heads.
