Hi guys, is anyone here working with PPI affiliate programs (only Windows installs)?
How many installations do you get? GEO ? Price per 1k? Or is PPI dead for Windows devices?
We have tried many PPI affiliate programs, and they have only bots who dies after 2-3 days.
 
Which ones did you try? Installppi is converting shit, almost no paymout. Lots of flags from browsers and windows defender. Can't recommend.
 
Loved your profile picture very much
Reminded me of old windows 98 when i was baby :D

Hi biznosboos, could you please send me dm?
I wanna know more about your windows traffic, maybe we can cooperate.
My previous answer to you was deleted by moderators.
I can't tell the whole truth about PPI networks here.
 
The PPI space for Windows installs is definitely still alive, but it's gotten a lot more challenging to find quality traffic. What I've seen is that a lot of the bigger PPI affiliate programs have shifted their focus to mobile installs, so it's harder to find decent Windows traffic. The silo idea of targeting specific geos and niches might help, but it's all about finding the right traffic sources and being able to scale without bots ruining the party. I've worked with some PPI publishers in the past who were able to deliver decent Windows installs, but it was always a struggle to maintain quality and avoid those pesky bot farms. Pricing wise, 0.25 per install sounds pretty standard, but it really depends on the geo and the quality of the traffic.
 
did you notice any difference in bot survival rate when switching between different ppi affiliate programs
 
PPI for Windows isn’t dead, but it’s heavily saturated with low-quality traffic and short-lived installs.
 
Interesting. Let me know if anyone has an offer. I can get about 1,000 installs per day. Tier 1 is about 10-15%.
 
If anyone has quality setups only from the USA, contact me, I am ready to pay up to $5
 
If you have installs, we can work, but i need try test, reply dm

Hey we have dm for more...thanks
 
Windows PPI not dead, but “any country 0.25” is usually where the trash starts imo. Real clean Windows traffic with actual users staying 3-7 days won't be that cheap unless geo is mixed heavy with tier3. I’d ask for 24h/72h/7d retention and source split before even doing 50 installs, because a lot of guys just rotate the same bot farms between networks and call it fresh. Seen same thing last year, installs looked fine first day then 80% gone or flagged by defender by day 3... waste of time.

Yes tg- @divz0023
 
Yeah @SMM Junction is right about the pricing but there is another side to the 2-3 day death... a lot of times it is not even bots, it is just Windows Defender doing its job. If you are paying 0.25 per install, those vendors are using cheap, shared loaders that get flagged in like 4 hours. Once defender flags the signature, your "install" is gone. I tried running some silent setups last year and unless you crypt your file literally every 6-12 hours you are throwing money away. If you want actual retention you gotta pay for private distribution or buy the traffic and crypt it yourself, otherwise you are just buying dead stats.
 
PPI is not dead, but public PPI is mostly dead imo. 0.25 any geo sounds like mixed CIS/Asia + emu traffic, maybe some real users inside but you will spend more time filtering than earning. Ask for small live drip test, not 50 installs dumped in 10 mins, and check 72h retention + same machine/user activity after reboot. If they refuse source split or only talk “unique installs bro”, usually same recycled panel traffic.
 
the defender signature issue is the real killer here. if you are buying cheap network installs, they are just running your exe through a shared loader that has been scanned 1000 times that morning. even if you crypt it yourself, the moment it hits their system, their runtime bypass is probably already leaked.

if you want to make ppi work nowadays, you almost have to buy the traffic yourself (like pop under or search) and direct them to a landing page with a clean EV cert, or rent a private stub from someone who actually limits their user base. public networks are just a waste of budget, you're basically paying to train microsofts machine learning.
