Affiliate Payment Methods
Wednesday, October 11, 2006
Advertisers usually don't provide a large variety of payment methods for their affiliates. To be exact, 99% of the time there is only one method offered. Often the payments to top sellers are exceptions as advertisers give choices of how earned commissions are received.
There are pros and cons (for both affiliates and advertisers) of the commonly used payment methods:
Payment by Check
Pros: Small processing fee, Traceable payment
Cons: Slow, Can physically get lost, Mailing costs
Payment by PayPal
Pros: Fast, Free for advertiser, Traceable
Cons: Heavy transaction fee for the affiliate
Payment by Wire Transfer
Pros: Fast, Traceable
Cons: Expensive fees
Payment by Cash
Pros: well, it's cash
Cons: it never happens that you get paid in cash
