I've been working with Admitad for about a year. Looking at the performance of other webmasters, prepared in advance a big bag for the money:). Because I kind of have targeted traffic to articles with links to affiliate programs, plus affiliate programs with very high commissions like online courses.
In short, as long as all the income is safely placed in my pocket, the bag is not needed for a long time.
But! I've started with a penny income, but slowly, month after month, the monthly check is increasing. Especially when the traffic of the site through which I drive traffic to the offers, has grown.
The good thing is that payouts can be scheduled in advance. I do not care whether I should wait a week or two, as long as I am confident that they are guaranteed to come.

My advice to newcomers. In the description of the programs the average conversion is indicated. Personally, my conversion rate has always been below average. At first I was worried, I was looking for a catch, but then I realized that you can not count on a serious income, if you just stupidly send visitors to the affiliate program. They will come, look, and leave forever. Therefore, it is necessary to offer promotional codes, somehow motivate, convert casual visitors in affiliate programs in the targeted audiences. And so on and so forth. Option: We sit, and the money come, doesn't work here.
When you start realizing it and tune in to work, the money really come in:).
