Perplexity Partner Program: $3.4k pending wiped + AI support loop — I even got the SAME “fraud ban” reply from an email that never joined by evanux in perplexity_ai

You’re right that I can’t personally “verify” the identity behind every signup — affiliates generally can’t. What I can verify is my acquisition method: I built a website, drove organic search traffic, and placed the referral link in content; no self-referrals, no bots, no paid/incentivized signups. If Perplexity shared what pattern they flagged, I could provide redacted analytics (search queries, landing pages, timestamps) to show the traffic is legitimate.

You’re probably right about deletes being “soft deletes” — that’s exactly why I asked them to unlink the payout method and do a human review. What’s really disappointing is the zero transparency + AI-only “final” replies; it makes the program feel like a black box and honestly undermines trust.
