hi,

I have this $102 in my CB account, just money crawling in from dunno where, and stuck under CDR, and now they charge me $1 on 4 Jan, so what is it?... non-withdrawal fees?

Enlighten ME!

    It's called "dormant account charges". That's what they call it, anyway. I have a much ruder name for it, myself, but I can't post it here.

    They will continue to deduct $1 per pay period (two weeks) until you have a sale go through your account. And in 3 months' time that will go up from $1 to $5.

    Buy a $3 product, or have a friend/relative buy a $3 product through your affiliate link and that will re-set the clock and give you another 90 days.

    How many more credit-card sales do you need, to qualify for the Customer Distribution Requirement? (I ask because there can be ways around that one, too).

      Please excuse the observation that you've somewhat missed the point, here. The Customer Distribution Requirement is there to protect you.

      Without it, or something very like it, there'd be nothing to stop anyone from becoming an affiliate and earning their own commission, rather than buying through your link, so you wouldn't get paid at all and the system wouldn't work. That's what it's there for.

      Yes, you need 4 more credit-sales sales to go through, to qualify under the CDR.

      Note that that doesn't need to be 4 different customers - just 4 different credit-cards.

      There are some $3/$4 products available, if you find them in the Marketplace, and you can always ask friends/relatives with credit-cards to buy one using your affiliate link. They pay commission, too, so you can always give them most of the money back. Just a suggestion. At least you only ever have to do this once.
