Affiliate-hold share is not EPC vs refund
Held commission $ ÷ total commission $ make hold %. Type both.
Pair: Affiliate-hold share on Traffic. EPC: EPC vs refund rate. Pending: pending-payout share.
What you type
Held commission $ — BuyGoods affiliate commission dollars still held in the window.
Total commission $ — All commission dollars (held + released) in that same window.
Hold % = held commission $ ÷ total commission $ × 100. Chase hold rules when hold % is fat — do not invent a hold chip.
What not to do
Do not invent hold %. Do not mix EPC gaps into commission $. Do not treat Digistore refund share as hold share. Do not average every affiliate when one owns the hole.
