Got banned by peerfly today!

You heard it right, just today.

Since incent and peerfly was merged, I got really difficult conversion with an offer (Luke emailed me 6 days ago telling me that my pay for that offer has just been bumped from 1.6 to 1.8. Davey also told me that I am running good leads and wanted me to scale things up). I then promoted that offer and deactivated all the other competing offers. I let it run for a week and I just got 1 conversion - true. The stats also tell me that there was no impression (not click) on that 1.8 offer for the past two days when I had a custom tracker on my redirect page and tells me that the page has been accessed 100+ times in two days and weeks before they (my custom tracker and peerfly's) had pretty close stats.

Now being frustrated with the situation, I got to change that offer with other offers with high epc and click throughs. I tested out using my purchased content locker (being confident that it'll cover my tracks) just to try things out (i have no intention of running a non incent offer for an incentivized traffic for good) or to test whether I will be getting any impressions from my traffic. And I was suppose to check my account today and gave me a huge surprise. My account just got suspended. And worse, they didn't send me any email telling me about the status of my account. I know that some folks are being sent and email for warnings about their account but is it peerfly's standard not to let their publishers warn about the status of their accounts?

I love peerfly and had been using decent and clean traffic to drive to the offers they have. But for the past two weeks seems rough with pf considering their merging of incent.ly and peerfly. It should be cool if they will consider to reactivate my account and tell me where I did go wrong. Please don't tell me that I should be using other networks like adworkmedia because I am having terrible conversions with them.

Hope the Peerfly boys are reading this and has something to say about it.


Have a great day!

So let me get this straight.

You used non-incentive offer on a content locker and expect to not be banned? Or you used an offer that allowed incentives? Your explanation isn't very clear. I'd get in touch with someone maybe PM the guy on Warrior Forum I've seen him around there. I'm pretty sure that's where I heard about it.

Yeah kinda confusing ? They don't ban accounts without any real proofs

That's it. It's not so clear why they have banned me. That is the situation and they didn't even care to send me an email. I ran a non incent offer to test if I do get impressions because the incent offer that I am running didn't get any impressions for the past 2 days.

I was suppose to remove that offer today and check whether I am getting any impressions.

Click to expand...

You're right. I'm waiting for their reply though. I will check him at wf..

looks like they found out that you were using the offer on a content locker.

I've been with Peerfly for a while - I would get intouch with Luke and see what he says about your banning. That sucks though!

post it in warrior forum .. they are very active there !!!

This sucks hard.. I was just testing it if I am getting any impression.. but instead an immediate suspension came unexpectedly...

Incent traffic is pretty much junk traffic. Using it on an on incent offer is a sure fire way to get the boot.

well.. it did worked using incent.ly for a while.. then suddenly, I didn't receive any impressions for more than two days!

Now, I didn't do anything stupid and the traffic is just the same. It was just there was no impression and I have set up a custom tracker and yes it says there had been clicks received but at peerfly dashboard there was none... What do you think where they doing before I was banned? And that particular offer was actually active... strange...

But anyway... I just created a new account from them and approved without any problem.

The compliance manager Cory is a member on this forum...

Yes Cory is a member.. we have talked via email and I think he only reads the first sentence of every email I sent.

peerfly will ban members with proper proof only dude

Yeah right and I hate the word "proof".... it's similar to poop.

try to find a cloak script before you decide to promote non incentive offers using incentive method

They have one of the best custom tracker around. Even if you blank it, they will see it.
Better contact luke or cory in skype for faster transaction.

They ban accounts with Proof. I don't know why didn't you get your mail.

I would just contact Luke via skype to settle down this issue. hope he helps you in this case

Luke said that Cory is the "man" for compliance... Anyway... I'm done with them.. But I have another account from them but doesn't use it as much anymore.. Doing well with another network! I have moved on....

Since you have got in touch with them, they will let you know what had happened. I was also banned by them due to incentive offers, I used.
