Affiliate Sign-up: We are proud to offer some of the highest affiliate payouts in the industry among competing ad networks. We welcome you to create an affiliate account and compare our rates with others. We strive to provide the highest possible payouts to affiliates.

Merchant Sign-up: Allow us to advertise your website via our network of affiliates on a Cost-Per-Action (CPA) model. Our ad rates are significantly lower than other networks, allowing your ad dollars to go where it should... in the hands of the high quality affiliates generating your leads, resulting in more traffic for you.

JP Sauve was so disgruntled about the treatment he received from affiliate networks - as an affiliate and as a merchant - that he decided to start his own affiliate network, MaxBounty.

He has a dream - fair payouts for affiliates.

"I've seen most networks keep half the amount I could pay for a lead, some even more, giving affiliates a very watered down payout," JP says.

"We ran a CPA (cost-per-action) campaign with one particular network paying a total cost of $1 per lead. They offered their affiliates only 40 cents CPA, pocketing 60 cents for themselves out of every lead. That's ridiculous, almost criminal.

"I know of someone running with a big network right now paying out $40 per sale of his product, and the network is paying out only $22 to the affiliate. The affiliate does all the hard work generating the sale, takes the risks, and more often than not he doesn't walk away with his fair share of the profits."

JP says the idea behind MaxBounty is to pay affiliates as much as absolutely possible - with no set-up fees for merchants, and network rates of between 15% and 30% depending on the offer.

"So far the merchants are all people that I've done business with over the years," JP says. "I tell everyone in advance that while our network rates will be lower, we don't want them to simply pocket the difference. We want that money to go to the affiliate."

He says two of his merchants were so gung-ho about the idea they've offered to pay more than they are to other networks running their campaigns.

So far a small number of merchants have signed up. A handful more have shown interest.

"Right now it's freebies and sweepstakes campaigns, as these are the people I've worked with before. Next are financial and educational offers, again people I've worked with. From there, who knows? We'll list any offer that'll provide a good return for our affiliates," he says.

"It seems that finding merchants will be no problem ... The real problem will be in getting the affiliates. Unless we can get a half decent volume of affiliates, the dream won't happen."

Here is an important note I found on the site:
MaxBounty has a generous webmaster referral program. You can make 5% of the earnings of any webmaster that you refer to MaxBounty for their FIRST YEAR.

Unfortunately, Mr. Nabaza has not provided a complete description of the situation. I am not going to begin levelling accusations at him, though. To prevent a my-word-against-his scenario, I simply ask that you go to your favorite browser, and search for MaxBounty. The reputation of my company will stand on its own. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you.

Yes, they are indeed scammers. They terminated my account for no apparent reason. I tried contacting them about the situation and they never responded. To top it off, they canceled my account the day of my payment, which I never received of course. I lost over $700 of hard work, I can't believe the company still stands. Don't waste your time with them guys, it's indeed a scam. If you earn a little, they will love you, if you earn something noticeable, they will terminate your account and keep all your earnings without paying you anything at all.

So.... I started with maxbounty about a month ago, I was still having some programming issues with my website so i backed off of promoting anything from them for about 2 weeks, when I did promote their stuff, i started an adwords campaign for an offer of theirs that was on my website, I spent $518.90 on that adwords campaign and I earned roughly $1,800.00 from that campaign promoting IRS tax debt consolidation (something that I have promoted before with other networks, and already had an extensive opt-in list for that niche). the last day of the pay period i got an e-mail that said they had terminated my account due to fraudulant leads, I contacted my affiliate manager and he told me it was out of his hands, and I havent heard anything from the compliance department, need-less to say maxbounty will be hearing from my attorney, and I hope they have a good attorney because im going to be sueing them for alot more than $1,800.

Hi there, What you say: MaxBounty terminated me... they are scammers... What you would say if you were honest: I have found various ways to cheat affiliate networks and steal commissions from merchants. Typically, I'll go through my affiliate link over and over again and fill out the offer myself. It's easy cash really and these are GOOD leads because I'm typing them in myself and I know what I'm typing!!!! But the other day, MaxBounty found out I was filling out all my own leads and terminated my account because they said I was being fraudulent. I DEMAND payment for these fraudulent leads because I worked hard filling in fake data all by myself and deserve to get paid for stealing leads. You should all support me in my efforts to steal commissions. Just ignore the fact that my actions lead to reduced CPA rates for legitimate affiliates. Oh, also ignore the fact that my fake/fraud leads even get some merchants enough to pull campaigns away from legitimate affiliates too. So even though I hurt you, please support me in being upset with MaxBounty because they terminated my fraudulent account. Steve Sauve MaxBounty

I'm hoping to get going with MaxBounty next week upon completion of my new website, (supposing they approve it,) and while it is scary to read around the 'net various folks saying that they got terminated on pay day or thereabouts, Steven seems genuine in his desire to explain terminations when really pushed. (Good on him.) Too many people fill out there own offers or alternatively provide incentives for offers they are not allowed to do so for - this is what has happened in every ban I've seen up until now, and I did my research (thoroughly) before choosing them as my network of choice. I wish those terminated would tell the truth as to why - it might make them look bad but it could win them *some* sympathy. Not much, and not from people like me, but other idiots who try to scam the system would probably feel bad for you. Tools. Everywhere.

I was promoting max bounty for IRS debt consolidation. I only used banner ads on my blog which happens to be the number one site in google for a search term related to IRS debt. I was earning rather well with a couple of leads per day then I log in to my account and all my pending commissions were gone and they refused to pay me. They didn't ban me and even said I could continue to run the offer if I changed the quality of my leads. Now I can't control how well a person who finds my site via google and clicks on a banner ad of their own free will and fills out an offer fits what the advertiser is looking for. So basically they screwed me out of a few thousand dollars and think I'm dumb enough to keep letting them do it.

Cashlizard.com and Maxbounty.com are two of the most reliable affiliate networks out there. I have had no problem getting payments from both.
