Actually, this is a typical arrangement in some cases. If you can reach a certain threshold, all your transactions will be bumped retroactively. But it's generally spelled out in advance.
Everything with any network is on a case by case basis I think. There's some standards for weeklies and wires. But this is more of an exception type thing. So if you want something it's always best just to ask. If you have a good reason you might get what you want. Other times you won't Remember all anyone can say is no. Nothing ventured nothing gained.
Same as Smax and Geofferson here at NB. We can make exceptions when the situation calls for it but best bet is to talk to your AM and explain why you think this is a good idea. Good way to set goals sometimes.
We've actually got a couple of offers that are set up like this based on lead volume. Send over 100 get a retro $0.20 increase, 500 $0.40, etc. Advertisers way to get more traffic.

I agree with the people that say it never hurts to ask and to also build a good relationship with your network and AM specifically. When you bring it up, provide a scenario that it would provide value to the network and to the advertiser.
I have had scenarios to provide affiliates with a retroactive payout bump in a particular month if they hit a certain amount of transactions/revenue, more as a reward.
Whether you get it will also depend on the advertiser for the offer. If the advertiser is not cool with it, then the network might be hard pressed to take lesser margin if they don't have a good reason to. However, if the advertiser is happy with your volume and quality, then you can use it as a way to grow.
And who says everyone's out to screw affiliates over? Hmm...

A good network takes care of you. I once dropped a new offer and got 4000 clicks and $0. I noted it to my AM, they pulled the offer (yanked the sucker), and credited me $1000. Now that's a partnership.
I personally find the only time to ask for a retro upgrade is if you normally get a larger paybump on all offers, and you happened to try an offer that rocked, but was on the cheaper payout, and you use it for leverage to your AM to do more. It's a simple game you play e.g. "Listen, I will hit this offer super hard if you can bump up the rate and take care of my initial tests".. usually they will.
Don't nickel and dime though. And follow through on your promise to your AM. Dont get a retro paybump and try another offer, reward your AM, and remember its a partnership.
