Do affiliates get money from how much the person signed up through them loses or through all their deposits?
How long are we tied to the affiliate.
And do the affiliates get less if we withdraw wins?
Just wondered.
There are many deals out there, some are Revenue Share only and promise super high shares like 60%, 50% and 40% and some are lower like 20% or 25%. What this means is that say a player loses £100, the affiliate will receive the said percentage of that loss once that loss has been calculated as a net amount. £100 is the gross loss, the actual amount lost by the player. The casino will then deduct their own operating costs out of that. They will take the fees they are charged for Tax, Banking, Game Provider Fees, Bonuses, Loyalty, Jackpot Fees and also Admin costs. After all that an affiliate is presented with an amount that is deemed the profit from that £100 loss. Typically, it will be around £30, sometimes as low as £20 or even £10, yes, really. It is that amount you are then given your share of. Some people, usually the ones that just jump on the bandwagon, actually truly believe that an affiliates 30% share of someones £100 loss is £30, when in fact, it will range anywhere between 90p and £9. An affiliate will be promised this revenue share on their players “for life” but again, that isn’t really true. Many casinos will stop paying once the affiliate stops promoting or dips down to a barely existent new customer level, it is easier to say that an affiliate will receive those payments for as long as he/she continues to provide players to that casino.
If working with revenue share, an affiliates commission due is £1,000 for the month, its the last day of the month and someone hits a wild line on DoA, for say £3,000. The win is then subject to all the same deductions in reverse and the amount is then removed from the affiliates £1,000 commission due so yes, when players win, it has the opposite effect on the commission due, affiliates cannot go negative, like they won’t owe the casino money if their account says for the month -£879 for example, the commission due will just be £0.
