I do wish I could reward this move with some exposure, but I just can’t bring myself to do it.
The latest in a long line of affiliate reps at CPays is now calling me every week, looking for placement. It sounds like I’m not alone in having had issues with them in the past.
My issues were all for small amounts of money fortunately, because I never landed any huge players during the time I promoted them.
My issues:
- They made a small deal with me for a no-risk placement. I was prepaid an amount, and my commission was to be the higher of that or the actual results. When the position did very poorly, I ended up with the prepaid amount as a negative balance carried forward for months. Since the deal was made over the phone instead of by email, I had no luck enforcing it. (Lesson learned.)
- At the time, I was making money with New York Casino, until they were taken over by CPays. Of course, once they merged, my separate account there was sucked into the negative balance at CPays.
- Once I finally dug out of the hole between the two combined accounts, of course they didn’t automatically pay me. Instead, it took a couple of months of emails to get them to pay me.
- As it turns out, the month they delayed had negative revenue. Did they pay me the total delinquent amount before the negative month? Of course not. They paid me the total after the negative month had reduced it. It wasn’t a negative carry-over, it was a negative push-forward!
- Does it bother anyone else that they are the only program who sponsors CAC events that doesn’t put any contact information other than their website address on their advertisements?
