Ive seen the info that one month of using HOQU will cost $500!! Well, thats going just a bit too far. The most expensive CPA networks now have a $300-400 monthly subscription fee. In my opinion, HOQU has inflated the prices too much.
Apparently, you fell a victim to the black PR campaign of HOQUs competitors. The service wont have any subscription fee, it will be absolutely free for both partners and advertisers.
