I think it's simply because you do forward someone on a website.

Also, imagine it's not Amazon but a much smaller website. Just bringing a client (someone who actually paid) is already a good deal.

So, I believe it's a totally fair commission rule.

I made it very clear that I have no problem with the commission paid:

The problem is disclosing random purchases. You can pay a commission without that disclosure.

Ah damn. I somehow misread your initial message. My bad.
