New "Flexible Loyalty Clause" is the best feature of all the revenue share programs now. Some weeks you will be able to withdraw 100% of earnings with NO PENALTY! This is good for members and for the company.

For those who don't know Flexible Loyalty Clause, this is Tony's announcement:
"We have some exciting news here at PIFT. We are making a major change to our program in regards to the 50/50 Rule / HIT and RUN Clause. The 50/50 Rule has gotten quite a bit of negativity associated with it and in some cases members would like to be able to withdraw more than 50% of their earnings at times and not be heavily penalized for doing so.
Well, we are not completely eliminating the 50/50 Rule, but we are changing things up a bit. We were the first to come out with Flexible Surfing and now we are going to be the first to come out with a Flexible 50/50 Rule / HIT and RUN Clause. We will be the first Revenue Sharing site to make it a flexible rule and rate.
We are renaming it to a more suitable name as well. It is now called the Flexible Loyalty Clause! We will no longer be calling it a 50/50 Rule / HIT and RUN Clause. You can read all the details on it below! The info and chart below will also help many of you understand exactly how our program works and how the calculations are made. We still get a lot of questions on this and hopefully this will make it clear.
Flexible Loyalty Clause: Rewards members for rolling over a percentage of their Revenue Share earnings each week. Our Loyalty Clause percentages will vary from time to time based on revenue of program, amount of withdraws from previous week and other factors . We have put the Flexible Loyalty Clause in place so that member may be able to withdraw a higher percentage of their earnings from time to time without getting a heavy penalty for doing so.
Here are the most common percentages we will be using: 50/50, 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, 90/10, and in some weeks we may allow 100% withdraws without any penalty!
For example: If our Loyalty Clause for the week is set at 60/40, that means you can withdraw up to 60% of your Revenue Share earnings that week without a penalty. The other 40% or more if you don't withdraw the entire 60% would be rollled back over into your Ad Levels to increase your total Ad Level balance. If you withdraw more than the 60% of your earnings, then your new Ad Level balance will be reduced by the amount you withdrew over your limit."
I requested some revenue share today. When you are in the Withdraw Request section it plainly tells you what the Flexible Loyalty Clause is for the week. (50/50 this week) This is a great feature and will help members a lot and give them flexibility in their strategies.

"Hello,
Just wanted to send a quick update as to what's going on with the new script and what we will be doing over the weekend.
Free Status, Missing Ad Levels, and Commissions
There are some of you that were at the Pro Upgraded Level in the old site and are now listed as a Free Member.
Just want to let you know not to panic. We are having to put your Levels in Manually. Once we put them in your account will be at the Gold Level and you will see your Ad Level balance.
If you are at Gold Level and missing some Ad Levels, they will be added soon as well.
Commissions are being added from the old system and some have already been done.
We would have had most of you already done, but we have been getting quite a few tickets from Members that can't log in.
So, we have been taking care of them and moving your info over at the same time. Plus taking care of some minor issues here and there.
But, you will be taken care of. We have your information. Also earnings aren't posted until Monday, so your earnings will not be effected in any way.
Surfing Stats
Many of you have sent tickets stating you had already surfed your 50 sites for the week. We were not able to carry this info over to the new script. So, if you can surf again that is great. If you can not surf don't worry. We are going to make it a non-surf week and you will still get your full earnings.
So, if you want... Just take a break for the weekend and let us catch up. Come back Monday, check your earnings and go from there.
New Purchases
We had a few members ask if they can still make a purchase since their info hasn't been transferred yet. Yes, you can make purchases. We will simply just add what you had to it. Also, upgrades are automatic now.
We've had a great week so far, even with the script change. So, earnings again will be great as always....
Thats about it for now. Again thanks for being patience. This new change is really what we need to take us to the next level and offer everyone better support and a better program for everyone to earn money in.
