I just noticed on Cash Kaboom’s affiliate site it says:
The site owners have decided to run regular sales on all sites. Affiliates will only receive earnings from full price membership. We apologize for any inconvenience.
I tried to contact them but no reply. I read that as you wont get any credit for sales anymore as they decided to run their “sales” on all sites. Just warning to anyone who still do promote them.
They have been doing that since Oct 2018. Each month they list which of their sites will have sales so affiliate webmasters can disable our links if we want to. This month is the first month since Oct 18 that they are not listing any site sales.
We have discussed this issue before too. See https://www.gaydemon.biz/forum/webmaster-discussion/294764-cashkaboom-warning
No this is different. I always check what sites they have a sale on and remove them. But now they are saying they will have sales on all sites.
What does that mean concretely? Does that mean that if you refer any sale to any of their sites, it will not translate into a new sale for you, just for them - correct?
If that is the case, why would anyone continue to promote them?
I have made only 2 sales this month with them, which is way below what I usually make with them.
Same. I think they are simply taking all the sales now. They just don’t care.

That’s too bad. They’ve always been one of my best converting sponsors. And a significant source of income.
Affiliates will only receive earnings from full price membership.
This quote is strange. As far as I know, all of their sales have always been “full price membership” sales. I don’t think they ever had any trials. Most of their members rebill for a very long time… I have had people rebill for several years after the initial sale.
So, what is actually different now? Which sales are “full price membership” and which are not? It would be good if someone from Cashkaboom could chime in to explain.
Will share my info here. Last year there is 990 submits (by NATS) and 1 sale
Usually it’s 3-50 submits per sale (depends on paysite landing page)
And yes, their sites are always on sale. Also they stopped sending affiliate mailing, and I’d say they don’t want us, affiliates, as a part of their business anymore.
Don’t really get why they keep NATS online.
Yeah enough is enough, I’ve removed all links and redirecting traffic.
Same and I’ll do it for every single program that does shady shit like this.
FWIW, I had a sale notification from CashKaboom yesterday.
Here’s how they are operating their sales – They replace the NATS affiliate links with plain Verotel links that don’t credit a sale to the affiliate. But they do not do this on every page of every site.
For example:
Breeder Fuckers – main page (/index02.php) has no affiliate join links since April 1, 2019. Most newer model pages that have come online since April 2019 (ie. /joe.php) do not have NATS links either. Older model pages still have NATS links and still credit sales.
CMNM – CK has been having regular sales months or 5 day sales weekends where the NATS join links on the main page are replaced. Deep linking is not an option, as there are only 8 pages outside of the members area and they do not have NATS joins links available.
Brutal Tops – main page (/index02.php) has no affiliate join links since Feb 1, 2019. There are pages you can deep link to that have NATS join links (ie /index10.php) that should still credit sales.
Casting Room – The join links on the main tour page are NATS links for now. This is a recent development. Until recently, they were non-NATS join links on the main page even though no sale was being advertised. In the event the site is on sale, there are no deeper pages beyond the main tour page to link to.
Strip Search Hell – normal NATS join links on the main tour page
Yeah but you have no idea when they will swap it out so would have to go back and check all the time. That’s no way to do business.
