Вот это кидок! Ну русских это мало коснется, потому как AC никогда нас не любили, но западных просто обворовали - трафф, ребиллы.
Непонятно только одно - "new credit card processing regulations". Это или отзвук летних разборок или очередной пиздец от Визы.
В любом случае это очень плохо, потому что как ни крути AC был лидером. :-(

Ну в общем-то этого можно было ожидать после того как начались у них все эти изменения термсов и пр. А вообще конечно потрясающе сделали, не просто закрылись, а выбрали несколько сотен мастеров с которыми будут работать дальше
Цитата: | Dear Webmaster,
On November 16, 2003, Adult Check will replace its existing system with a new hybrid affiliate program. Adult Check will be removing your sites from its system due to new banking regulations. However, out of thousands of webmasters, you are one of only a few hundred selected to join Adult Check in this new venture.
The affiliate program will allow you to continue accumulating new sales with Adult Check at your current commission levels without the burden of having to build, host, and maintain an adult website. A new tour system has been setup that will allow you to push traffic and make conversions similar to other standard affiliate programs on the internet.
This new affiliate program provides you with a special opportunity to keep your rebills if you elect to join and meet the requirements of the Adult Check Affiliate Program.
Should you choose not to participate, final payments will be paid out pursuant to existing accounting policies for any sums due and payable prior to November 16, 2003.
Please read the following Terms and Conditions carefully. These Terms and Conditions define your future relationship with Adult Check, if you so choose to accept.
Participation Requirements:
To remain in good standing with the Adult Check Affiliate program, Webmaster must generate a minimum number of at least 10 Net Sales per pay period (after the ‘Scale Up’). "Net Sales" shall mean any combination of new Adult Check Gold and Adult Check Regular memberships sold during a pay period less any Chargebacks received during that Pay Period.
During the first two pay periods, the minimum number of net sales required will scale up (the 'Scale Up' period) to 10 according to the following schedule:
Pay Period Minimum Net Sales 11/16/2003 - 11/30/2003 5 Net Sales / period 12/01/2003 - 12/15/2003 7 Net Sales / period 12/16/2003 and beyond 10 Net Sales / period
If Webmaster meets the Participating Requirements and is in Good Standing, Adult Check will pay Webmaster pursuant to the Accounting Policies set forth below.
If Webmaster fails to meet the Participating Requirements, in any two pay periods within a three month period, then Adult Check, at its sole discretion may terminate Webmaster’s account. Upon termination, final payments will be paid out pursuant to existing accounting policies for any sums due and payable prior to termination.
Accounting Policies:
We send out commission checks to our affiliates twice a month. The first pay period begins on the 1st of the month and ends on the 15th of the month. Checks for this pay period are generally sent out by the 22nd of the same month. The second pay period begins on the 16th of the month and ends on the last day of the month. Checks for this period are generally sent out by the 7th of the following month. If the 22nd or the 7th date fall on any weekend or legal holiday then payments will be made on the next business day. Arrival time of your checks is dependent on the method we send it out, the season as well as the US postal system's time required to deliver in your area or country.
Old Rebills are rebills attributable to sales that occurred prior to November 16th, 2003.
New Rebills are rebills attributable to Net Sales.
Commission payments for Net Sales and New Rebills will be paid according to the schedule below:
Up to 10 Net Sales / pay period (Gold or Regular):
Adult Check Regular Sales: $10.50 Adult Check Gold Sales: $12.60
11 or more Net Sales / pay period (Gold or Regular):
Adult Check Regular Sales: $11.50 Adult Check Gold Sales: $13.60
Commission payments for Old Rebills will be paid according to Accounting Policies in place prior to November 16, 2003, exclusive of any Referral Bonus.

Chargeback Ratios: Webmaster must maintain acceptable chargeback levels. Adult Check, at its sole discretion, may terminate Webmaster’s account if their chargeback ratios exceed card association limits for two calendar months. Chargeback levels will change from time to time and shall be governed by the card association. Adult Check will provide ongoing statistics regarding chargeback ratios to each webmaster in its affiliate program.

Мой нехороший прогноз - следующими нас "обрадуют" NetVerifier или ProAdult. По-моему только они еще никак не отреагировали на нововведения Визы, а это дурной знак.

Пошли "круги по воде"
Цитата: | I understand that many are concerned with the major announcement from AC and a few other reseller programs, so I just wanted to let everyone know that we are on top of the Visa issues and have secured several Onshore and Offshore processors over the past few years and have been working to make sure NetVerifier will be here a very long time.
If you are unaware of the announcement please visit AVSFriendly.com There is a huge thread about it.

Небось тоже термсы новые зверские? Кто-нить пробовал с ними объясниться-договориться или уже поздно пить боржоми когда почки отказали?
