Calculating fees as an affiliate

[reachstan]

Hi guys , I am starting a coupon website , consisting of coupons of local retail vendors. what is the most appropriate way to charge them fees? and in the way it is lucrative to them to sign up with me.
-upfront pricing monthly , annually , or per coupon commission or something better?

do give your suggestions!

Why don't you try to see what your competition is doing and emulate them?

If you are in contact with the local vendor work out a % when the customer redeems a coupon somehow?

Nbbrad's idea is the most fair, but you would have to trust the vendor completely.

Maybe you can work out a deal where they pay you for putting up the coupon for a certain number of days? Kind of like advertising? Do you think any of them will be amenable to that?

Are you okay? If you want to make money with a "coupon site" you'll need to know the big players in the space. Charging vendor? What are you talking about? Do you even have a URL so I can shit all over it?
