Help · Traffic but no conversions
What counts as a conversion?
A conversion is a referred user's first qualifying purchase on Secrets AI. Free signups do not pay. Conversions start as pending, become approved once validated, and can be reversed by a chargeback.
A conversion is the first qualifying purchase made by a user you referred to Secrets AI, such as a subscription or a token purchase. A free account signup is not a conversion and does not pay. On RevShare you also earn on that user's later purchases, but the first qualifying purchase is what appears as the conversion.
Free signups do not pay
Many visitors create a free account first and buy later, or never. You will see clicks and possibly signups reflected in your traffic, but commission is only earned when a referred user pays. This is why paying-intent traffic matters more than raw volume.
How each model pays
- CPA: you earn a one-time payout of up to $70 for each qualifying paying user. CPA is geo-tiered, with Tier 1 countries paying the most. Your affiliate manager confirms your exact rates.
- RevShare: you earn 40% of every purchase the referred user makes for the lifetime of the account: subscriptions, renewals, upgrades and token purchases.
- Hybrid: a mix of both, available on request through your affiliate manager.
Pending, approved and reversed
Each conversion has a status in Everflow:
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Pending | Recorded, still being validated. Not yet payable. |
| Approved | Validated. Counts toward your next payout. |
| Rejected | Not payable, for example after a refund, chargeback or a quality check. |
Reporting → Conversion shows every conversion with its status, payout, country, device, sub1 to sub5 and transaction ID. Optimize on approved conversions: pending is a forecast, not a result. See Reporting.
In Everflow terms, a subscription is tracked as a Conversion, while a signup is an Event. That is why postbacks for payouts use the Conversion tracking type.
Chargebacks reverse commission
If a referred user disputes the payment with their bank or card issuer, the original purchase is reversed and so is the commission on it. This protects the program from fraud and is standard across adult offers. Conversion quality matters more to the program than raw conversion count: refund rate, chargeback rate and downstream engagement are all looked at. Traffic that produces many chargebacks is a sign of poor targeting or misleading creatives and may be flagged for review. A review is a standard quality check; you may be asked for source, placement or sub-ID detail, and payments tied to that traffic may hold until it closes.
What does not count
- Free signups without a purchase
- Purchases by users who did not arrive through your tracking link
- Purchases from incentivized clicks or misleading creatives, which break the program rules
