Payout bump
In plain English
What does Payout bump mean?
An increase in the per-conversion payout a network grants an affiliate who delivers volume or quality.
Listed payouts are starting points. Once you send consistent, clean conversions, ask for a bump; networks have margin to give and would rather keep you than lose you to a competitor offering more. Quality (approval rate, chargebacks) matters as much as volume.
