Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is the difference between Revenue Sharing and Pay Per Lead/Signup?

Revenue Share (RevShare) is paid on a sliding scale, from 20-30%, based on each month's gross sales. You will receive commission on all long-term spending by referred customers. A breakdown of the sliding scale is available here: RevShare.
Pay Per Signup (PPS) commissions are awarded based on the first qualified purchase per customer. Any amount above one dollar is considered to be a qualified purchase (Note: when a free signup converts to a paying customer, you will receive the $50 bounty). .
Pay Per Lead (PPL) is a one-time payment that is based on the region that the customer is referred from. Any free sign-up that is confirmed via email is considered eligible for a PPL commission. To sign up for a PPL or PPS plan, please check out our CPA program, HackLab CPA.

8. Where can I see how much traffic I have sent?

Traffic statistics are available under the stats tab in our member's area. You can view your stats broken down by date, user ID, tracking code, and device type

9. What are raw hits versus unique hits?

A unique hit is the number of individuals that click your ads/links, while raw hits are the total number of clicks all those individuals have made. Example: if you have 2 people that each clicked 10 times, then you would have generated 2 unique hits, and 20 raw hits.

10. Which should I use, the homepage link or the random webcam link?

The homepage link is great for showcasing all of the live models, and then allowing the customer to choose a specific model, and start chatting. The random room link will take your customers directly into a random live chat, thus reducing the number of clicks required to sign up and start spending.
