    This will be looked into. We have some larger delays than usually due to Christmas time.

    The anomaly detection system is monitored. Right now there are literally like 2-3 new fraud websites detected a day. They are checked manually and verified to be fraud.

    Will be checked shortly.

    Yes, we did have a total stall in the main database cluster, sorry for that. I was alerted about the issue and notified our oncall DBA right away.
    There also was a notification on our technical status twitter account: https://twitter.com/PopAdsTech

    Networkwide rates are fairly stable.

    Please be aware that your request is not the one and only request we have pending. Right now there are around 700 tickets waiting for reply.
    Also be aware that due to Christmas we are not working at full throttle (plus, there have been a number of technical issues in the back that required my attention recently).

    Are you going to verify my account and traffic? It's been nearly a week and I still can't withdraw. It should not take this long to verify, as you would see major anomalies with our traffic if we were not legitimate. This is absolutely absurd.

    It took longer as my employee did not unblock your account(as he has confirmed that what our system has detected is not a mistake). This means I have to look into it myself and just haven't had time recently.
    Please explain why Firefox, Internet Explorer or Edge all opened less than 1% of ads.
    About 98% of ads were opened from Google Chrome. This is not a natural distribution.

    Thank you for the reply. This is a very easy question to answer :)

    We offer importable "cookies" for two of the over 100 trial services that are listed within our index. The cookies can "only" be imported with a program called EditThisCookie, and with the "Chrome" browser. Don't believe me? Here's video proof directly from our YouTube Channel that has over 8,700 subscribers in 6 months of having the new website up and running.

    You will also notice we rarely have any mobile users, this is because cookies aren't supported within a mobile platform. I suggest you take a look at the locations of our clients also, as we're ranked under 4,000 in Mexico and 78,000th in the world.

    Still don't believe me? Here's several videos from ordinary people showing how the method is performed with the CHROME browser.. and it just so happens to be they are from Mexico as well.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mkPlrWuKk7s&t=1s

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GbFpN-ZKAlk&t=128s

    And here's a cheesy knock-off competitor I found scraping the internet.. http://www.cookiesnetfl1x.com

    Now will you please enable my account for withdrawals? This is getting ridiculous..

    Sorted.
    Yes, I have just unblocked your account for withdrawals, thank you for providing all the details.
    And no, I do not consider this ridiculous. I hope you can agree with me that seeing nearly 100% Chrome traffic is not something normal to see.
    Your website type is very unusual and what you have posted was not instantly obvious after checking your website.

    One important thing: if you restart traffic, it is very likely that our system will block you again. The thing is that I am unable to whitelist anomaly unless the anomaly is active.
    As you have stopped traffic, the old anomaly has been archived. In case you get blocked, please PM me asap so I can whitelist you properly.

    Thank you for your prompt response. After considering your perspective on the situation, I can see how it would be extremely difficult for one to instantly understand why such a high percentage of visitors are strictly utilizing the Chrome browser - and I wanted to apologize for any disrespect you felt.

    I am looking forward to working with PopAds and hope we can do business together for a very long time.

    Thank you Tom!

    Regards,

    Thomas

    from 1~1.15 $ to 0.60 ~ 0.75 $ , the worst part is the amount of T1 traffic even increased and overall visit to websites.
    It used to be 30% USA , 1~3% UK , 1~3% CA now 40% USA , 5~7% UK , 5~7% CA and rates got worse :confused:
    Either they lost some advertisers , some advertisers decided to pay less or they started taking higher cuts.

    Not sure about PopAds anymore.

    You can just change it in that very place :) Just click on your current PayPal email, delete it, enter new one.

    Depends what period you are comparing. If you are comparing last year's december to this december then yes, you will see huge drop and it is related to market conditions.
    2016 wasn't good for our market, lots of advertisers reduced rates, many of them have disappeared from the market.
