Great post, Iva ... which I'm sure will hit home for a number of our fellow JVNP 2.0 Partners.

I think it wise to have specific terms and conditions when it comes to JVZoo affiliate payment, instant vs delayed, as well as affiliate approval, in general, but it does not mean that you have to automatically deny approval for potential affiliates based on lack of JVZoo sales or low sales retention/high churn rate.

If they do not meet the minimum requirements, number wise, you could ask them to reply with additional possible qualifiers (EX. sales made on other platforms, their partners and other known associations, explicit details of how they intend on promoting your offer, etc.).

You can set the bar as high or low as you like, instant vs delayed, and by simply asking that some basic qualifiers be met, you'll be able to approve the majority of affiliates.

Cheers,
