Jerkmate review: affiliate payouts through CrakRevenue

Jerkmate’s three payout options

• Pay per sale: $40 to $150, triggered on every credit card submit, with no initial purchase required. Jerkmate asks new users for a card at signup without charging it.
• Pay per lead: $2 to $25 per double opt-in email signup. CrakRevenue’s cam page says up to $20, Jerkmate’s own page says $25.
• Revenue share: 30% of every dollar a referred user spends, for life.

The rate inside each range depends on your traffic, geo and strategy, and CrakRevenue’s terms require you to keep individual payouts confidential. Some reviews quote euro figures or a separate “pay per spender” tier up to €275, and one lists a $50 minimum for PayPal. None of that appears on Jerkmate’s or CrakRevenue’s own pages.

How CrakRevenue pays Jerkmate affiliates

CrakRevenue pays in US dollars twice a month, from $100 by MassPay, Paxum or PayPal and from $500 by bitcoin or wire. PayPal is available in the US, Canada, the UK, Australia, Germany, France and Hong Kong only. Bitcoin is not paid to Nigeria, Pakistan, Indonesia or Sri Lanka, among others.

The default term is Net 30, paid on the 15th or the last day of the month, 30 days after the period in which you reached your minimum. Net 15 pays on the same dates 15 days sooner, and Net 7 pays on the 7th and the 22nd with a $500 minimum. Transfers take at least 48 business hours, and billing changes must be made five business days before a period closes.

How chargebacks hit Jerkmate earnings

Every chargeback is debited from your balance. In a February 2021 BlackHatWorld thread, an affiliate sending clean search traffic said chargebacks took a tenth or more of his Jerkmate revshare, more than on his other CrakRevenue offers.

If CrakRevenue suspects fraud, it deactivates the account without notice and holds payments, and you have seven days to prove you did not commit fraud. Leads from the wrong targeting or device type are not paid.

CrakRevenue rules that can cost you your balance
