Why the anti-Playtech feel on here?

This followed a plea bargain with the district court in Tel Aviv.

So did he serve those 18 months, or was it commuted to some pissy good behaviour bond or something similar. Adding, I would have thought anyone convicted of insider trading, and those other related convictions, he would also be banned from company directorship for literally years, if not a life ban.

I wonder how much his company (Playtech) have indirectly stolen from affiliates over the years. Guess enough to live a life of luxury, 3x over or more.

He's not the 1'st online gaming identity to come up against a court for insider trading. Can't recall the software (casinos) but it was proprietary. The director (banned from trading for 10 years in Canada), simply handed the company reins over to his daughter, but clearly he was calling the shots.

While on a role... I believe one of the owners of Golden Palace ran foul of the law too. Then there's the owner of Virtual Casino Group.

Aside from that, affiliates having to place 100% trust in program, is just too temping for anyone whos moral and ethical compass is broken, to shave...just sayin. We deal with such honest people in this industry, don't we :rolleyes:

I would love to promote Playtech, but I am having a hard time finding any brand using Playtech and having both a trustworthy casino and a trustworthy affiliate program.

Apart from Focal Click, the only other top-notch Playtech operator is Bet365... but they have NCO :(
I once went 2.5 YEARS in the red with then, but touch-wood, I only had 1 negative month last year.

Genting seem OK too - but again, being sports-based, they have NCO as well now (added Jan 2016).

I've pretty much given up on all other Playtech-based casinos apart from those three.

As @LandofOz said, Focal Click is also the only playtech group we have listed.

Focal Click don't have a mobile casino and also take forever to add the newest games to their portfolio. In my book they're not great at all and I have promoted a lot of Playtech brands.

I used to promote Bet365 casino to my SA players with great success, plus I trusted them. iAffiliates was a good program for me to back then too. But Playtech seemingly lost some of their South African payment providers and that's when Bet365 pulled out. Since then all Playtech programs have been outperformed by RTG programs. I still earn from iAffiliates and EuroPartners although my trust level for these two programs is extremely low. :(

Still until 2013/2014 I remember very big earnings with playtech casinos programs, then the players stopped playing, and the sending new players started to border the miracle, and new registrations did not bring depositors, so I abandoned entire playtech software.

The last thing as I checked all program with casinos powered by playtech has unfriendly terms, with the exception of Focal Click, but I not sent many players there.

Good reading. Honestly Playtech does not belong to my favourites as well. Games are not bad, but conversion sucks..
