So, please don't call the offer as email submit because CPA company is deceiving affiliate, they said it'll convert after the email submit. Please call it as conversion after address submit and ton of co-reg offers.

Recently this has been the case with me, I am not talking about Peerfly but it's another another network they shave me right after the leads are added to my Balance. I got really furious because, everyday I noticed a change in my balance but I was not sure what was wrong with my balance (Kept changing). Then I sent an email to the Affiliate Manager, and she explained this by saying these are the advertisers who do these stuff for bad leads.
The question is what if the leads are not bad ? Who's gonna judge the legitimacy of those leads, the advertisers? even if the leads were bad,they were not deliberately done by the publisher and as an advertiser you cant expect all leads to be 100% good or legitimate. It's part of the game. It's sad but true, that publishers seem to have very little control over this.

Jason's a nice guy but his take on how email submits work is a crock of shit. The "shaving" on email submits (without confirmation pixels) is generally advertisers not paying for duplicate addresses and the reason switching affiliate networks for the same submit (used to) get around that (for a while) is the advertisers only dedup'ed against the same publisher or broker.
With that said, if I'm an advertiser, I'll only keep those leads that are profitable for me, it's so little work and profitable, if the lead doesn't complete co-reg offers and bunch of survey, I'll just shave it. Damn lol, it's good being an advertiser.
What kind of offer are you running? If it's something like an email submit, some networks will admit to shaving, by calling it a "self improving offer" which will determine the quality of your traffic in the backend, for example if your users only fill out the first email submit, and none of them continue with the other offers after first page, that would be low quality traffic.

Correct.They can set how much to shave.I have read a lot about this and have find that they shave 10-15% on average.

I am like this nowadays.
NIce I was going to post a pic of a shave head what a dent in it to show how most of the lower level network shave but thought it was in bad taste.
