Am I required to use the TrafficZ nameservers? Clients are required to utilize the TrafficZ name servers for several reasons. There is some level of latency when domains are simply redirected to us; therefore, end users may take longer to arrive at our site and others may not arrive at all. Our infrastructure is fully redundant, so our clients can be fully assured that users get to their domains and have a rewarding experience when utilizing our name servers. In short, they are required to use this method for the purposes of speed and reliability.

What compensation programs are available? TrafficZ is pleased to offer clients a dynamic revenue share compensation option.

The default base revenue share is 50 percent. Although clients' revenue shares may increase, their revenue shares will never fall below their base revenue share. Also available to TrafficZ clients is a flat revenue share option. With this payment method a client's revenue share remains static. Clients are paid a fixed rate of their gross revenue regardless of their domain's traffic-conversion rate.

Net 7 means that at the end of each calendar month, revenue is issued to clients within 7 days (given the minimum revenue has been generated on the account). TrafficZ reserves the right to delay payment to clients until it has received compensation from its upstream providers.
What is the minimum payment amount? TrafficZ issues payment to clients on a monthly basis, given their account has generated at least $25.00 USD. This amount may be increased per the client's discretion by emailing our Client Relations department at support@trafficZ.com.
