Affiliate Business's MUST KNOW TERMS

Minimum Payment Amount How much you have to accumulate before you will get paid. Most programs set a minimum standard for the amount of earnings you have to accumulate before they will pay you. There are various reasons for this minimum threshold. Some programs claim the lengthy and expensive process of writing checks and mailing to publishers can only be afforded if the publisher make over a certain amount of money. In other words, it's not worthwhile to write a check and mail it over if the value of the check is only a couple of bucks. Just about every affiliate programs have adopted this tradition and have set some amount of minimum payment standard. One situation you should beware of is when you do not reach the program's minimum payment amount and you decide to drop an affiliate program, you will forfeit all your existing earnings. All the efforts and time invested will be tranformed into what the economists label "sunk costs" (investments that fail to earn any profit).
