Paying international publishers has become (in my opinion) one of THE WORST part of running an affiliate network

ok i am sorry but I need to rant, I’ve been running an affiliate network for almost five years, and when we started, the hardest part was recruitment and traffic quality. Then it moved to fraud detection being one of the hardest parts. Now it’s actually paying our publishers (which is the part of the business I assumed would always sort itself out) Paypal eats fees on both ends and froze two of our top publisher accounts last month for “review” with no explanation given (I mean come on!). Wize has been our backup but they hit limits at higher volumes. Swift is dead in my opinion, half of our publishers are in Nigeria and Indonesia and literally cannot receive a Swift wire and the ones that go through take like five business days. Stablecoin payout requests started small last year and now it’s about 30% of our top publishers asking. We’ve been hesitant because the AML side is genuinely scary if you don’t get it right. If you’re running a network and you’ve found something that works for cross border payouts at this scale, i’d love to hear about it.
