PPS refers to ” Pay Per Sign Up ” model of affiliate payment.
Basically, it means if you send a customer to a sponsor, and they sign up for that membership site, you get a flat fee paid to you.
IT DOES NOT MEAN that you get any further revenues, if that new member renews their membership, after their initial sign up period has expired.
In many cases, PPS is usually higher than the actual membership sign up price, and if you select this method of affiliate marketing, you may want to insure that you get credit for sales, based on console traffic, or ‘ exit consoles ‘ that may exist, when a customer leaves the sign up page, without signing up.
When choosing either this payment model, or the RevShare model, you need to know some important facts. For example, what is the ” member retention rate ” for the site? This is critical because if the site has a HIGH retention rate, then PPS may not be a good choice for you.
On the other hand, if the site has a really poor retention rate, then PPS is the obvious choice. Though it should be noted, that sites with really bad retention rates, and high PPS payouts, may not last long, or you may encounter some serious payment issues.
