Valid lead— what it means in affiliate marketing
A lead that passes the quality check: reachable contact details, right geo, matching the offer's criteria.
Validity is the advertiser's definition, and it belongs in the offer terms before the traffic starts. Where it is left vague, the dispute is only a matter of time.
