      Note that, for most offers, the types of payouts and revenues will have the same metric (an offer will have RPC and CPC set). However, you can create an offer with different types of revenue and payouts.

       

      Example:

      An offer that collects revenue per impression but pays affiliates at cost per sale (CPS).

      Note: After setting up the payout and revenue double-check the settings to avoid unnecessary consequences which can be the case of losing your profit.
