New Trend - Hidden admin fees

[allfreechips]

I add a lot of brands to my network, and the old days of what is the percentage are long gone. Now its operator fee's, Processor fee's ID check fee's Taxes and more! But when I ask to break these down to gte to my percentage of losses it gets "funny" sometimes

Ranged of 5-15% for a lot of them and "Owners will not disclose admin fee's" is the new WTF line.

So they are at least admitting to skimming now! No full disclosure no additions period, and if they will not disclose these fee's then im sure ill never see real stats.

Obfuscation all over the place. Every brand. Different at each one, but they all screw you one way or another.

This is one thing that irks me, because most affiliates, even when you explain that other programs deduct fees, they still only look at the percentage figure they are being offered.

You could ask the affiliate manager how much commission you'd make from a $100 loss on whatever percentage they are paying. That way you can see the true revshare percentage and go from there.

it's not new.. its been going on a while.. some prgrams really think if uou send them 50-100k in profit per month you will be happy with 2-5k, but whils affiliates keep sucking it up because they are scared to lose a client base, more programs will take advantage..
