Affiliates, which do you prefer?

8 replies
If you're the affiliate of a recurring income product, which payment model do you prefer?

1) 100% commission, shared on a 1:1 ratio with the site owner.
Pros: Instant payment, no waiting for your affiliate payouts.
Cons: With a 1:1 ratio, you are essentially earning only 50%.

OR

2) 70% commission, paid out weekly.
Pros: Higher commission rate than the above option.
Cons: Have to wait for affiliate payouts.


Just want an idea of what you guys as affiliates will prefer

    Hi Sirius

    I'd go with option 2 (not that I am greedy or anything like that!)

    I'd go with #2. Waiting a week wouldn't bother me at all.

    In theory 2 - but sometimes people have problems with their payment systems so I'd probably go for 1 in reality.
