Maxbounty Review
.
Company Blurb: Since 2004, more than 11,000 publishers have depended on MaxBounty for revenue from CPA advertising. We are renowned for unparalleled customer service by dedicated affiliate managers and for our timely, never late payments available in multiple currencies through multiple methods.
.
Maxbounty has a solid reputation, and our experiences have proven that reputation well-earned. Aside from its score, which places it strongly within our list of top ten networks, you can see just what there is to like about Maxbounty below.
.
-Maxbounty has an industry-standard 5% referral bonus of which you can collect 20% or more if you join through CashBackAffiliates and input your tracking information in the members area. See instructions here.
-A phone interview is a required portion of the acceptance process. While some applicants might see this as a downside, it should give you confidence that Maxbounty is serious about weeding out the “bad” affiliates who are misusing the system. The more irresponsible affiliates who belong to a network, the lower the trust advertisers will have in the affiliate company itself. Since Maxbounty takes the time and effort to eliminate unethical affiliates, you can expect fewer chargebacks and a better overall reputation for Maxbounty. How does this impact you? Well, because Maxbounty has good bargaining leverage, you can expect higher payouts per lead. That’s music to the ears of someone who’s looking to make a living in the affiliate networking space.
-Maxbounty offers a large number of incentive CPL (cost-per-lead) campaigns. Most companies only have CPS (cost-per-sale) campaigns available for incentive traffic, but Maxbounty has several email- and zip-submit campaigns at any one time. This allows for a considerable amount of flexibility in your marketing strategy.
-If you have international traffic (that is, non-US or -UK), then Maxbounty typically has a fairly large number of offers available. They don’t have as many as some other networks, but their selection is reasonably large. Unfortunately, their default offer for traffic that they can’t use (traffic from countries that they don’t have an offer for) is something called “SurveyScout,” which is an absolutely terrible campaign and hardly ever converts (at least for the Editor writing this piece). In over 140,000 clicks, there has only been one conversion, netting just over $20. I don’t think anyone would call those good numbers.
.
Despite these small shortcomings, Maxbounty is a wonderful network that has a good reputation online as a legitimate business that pays on time. They pay out via check and ACH deposit (at certain revenue levels), but unfortunately do not have a Paypal payout option as of the time of this writing. Keep in mind that Maxbounty has become increasingly difficult to get into over the couple of years that they’ve been around. So, if you’re waiting to try them out, it might be better to go ahead and apply rather than wait, because the more popular they become with top affiliates, the more difficult they’re going to be to get into. We at CashBackAffiliates heartily recommend Maxbounty to everyone from the beginner to seasoned affiliate marketers.
Hello everyone. I am writing this to let everyone know that MaxBounty is the #1 affiliate network that I have EVER worked with. Every question I’ve ever had has been answered within 1 day, and your affiliate manager is just about always available for you. They also have the HIGHEST payouts i have ever seen. All of my payments have been on time, and they have great selection of offers to promote. And I mean a GREAT selection. I wish you all good luck using MaxBounty!
Awful company to work with. High scrub rate. Ban you for no reason right before payouts. Get your act together MaxBounty! I’ve worked with 5+ other affiliate networks and can only say bad things about yours.
Very unprofessional, read this — http://www.wickedfire.com/shooting-shit/89662-fun-chinese-applicant.html

They always paid on time, no problem there. Good and converting offers.
The problem was I had 4 AM under 3 months. When my best converting offer stopped converting it took ages to sort it out.
I had the traffic and the clicks but no conversions at all. They fixed it after 2 weeks but of course I switched to an other network similar offers in the mean time. A few days later Maxbounty pulled down that offer totally from the network..
They have good offers but not for my niche at the moment.
I happen to know the guys from MaxBounty very well. They taught me everything about affiliate marketing, they’re why I’ve got a career in this business. They even fronted my first $1000 to buy ads. All this B.S. about non-payment… that’s only from affiliates who’ve been booted from their network for cheating. Notice the same people who say MB doesn’t pay are the those who say they’ve been banned? I’ve been paid every month like clockwork for going on 4 years now. You can’t get more legit than MaxBounty. I’m glad they don’t pay the blackhat affiliates. It’s more for legit marketers like me!
