What the headline terms mean in practice
The published numbers are only useful when you understand the conversion event, attribution, application friction and promotion constraints behind them.
The referral generally needs to become an eligible purchase. Compare the payout with product price, conversion difficulty, exclusions and reversal rules rather than reading the commission in isolation.
60 days gives more than a month for the referral to convert. That can help with considered purchases, but the governing attribution model still matters.
Low-to-moderate — 2–3 business day review. Treat eligibility as a separate question from whether the commercial terms look attractive.
Traffic-source, trademark and geography rules are not fully public in the reviewed material; verify them before using paid promotion or making region-specific claims.
