Ah, I'm finally learning the terminology of "fronts" and "portals." No wonder I couldn't find it when I searched.

Pam712, I found your old post, if anyone else is interested, it's at:

There were a few posts that made me ponder. You guys said that these affiliate programs (whether front or portal, as far as I understand, it doesn't matter) have the following risk. Say you get a lot of referrals going, and you are making a lot of money, but when one or two high winners come along, you lose most if not all everything. Does this mean that ALL accounts under the affiliate is equated as ONE?

I was assuming each account had a separate profile. I might be using wrong terminology again, so please bear with me.

I'm interested in G-FED, so I'll give an example (if I am mistaken, please correct me). Affiliates make money from the net revenue, which is equated as Actual Deposits - Winnings = X. The lowest percentage to G-FED is 35% (but they take 11% away for fees, so I guess it's 24%), so then it would be X * .24 = My Pay (provided that X is positive).

Isn't the above equation done for EACH account? If so, why does it matter if one or two winners have a negative? If I have been mistaken all this time, then they sure are sneaky because it all sounded as if each account is separate. So basically if a person you referred wins, they take it out of your total account? What if you already ordered a withdrawal? You have to pay them back???
