Be Aware of Cross Promotion

[inspiration]

I have opened an accout at casino la vida.

When I entered the casino lobby there were clickable ad slides to :

xxhttp://www.clubredgaming.com/brands.asp
xxhttp://www.thegrandslamofslots.eu/

If redreturns had just 1 casino that would be ok but they have (2 casinos) redflush to and all traffic from the casino lobby to these promo sites is NOT tagged and affiliates get NO credit for that.

traffic goes to
xxhttp://www.redflushcasino.eu/?btag=NO_TAG_PRESENT
and
xxhttp://www.casinolavida.com/?btag=NO_TAG_PRESENT


Affiliates Be Aware of this !!

Hi guys,

There should be no links that leave the software. This is an oversight by the web design team and has been rectified. Thanks inspiration for picking this up.

Best regards,
Wayne

Yes Rick thank you very much for noticing that really significant oversight!!

Thank you Redflush for your fast response and for fixing this asap!

Sorry Wayne but the issue has not been solved yet.

The ad slide for grand slam of slots II is still linked to the related website.........

Carnival promo still has easy navigation to :
xxhttp://www.clubredgaming.com/promotions/Carnival/howitworks.asp

with redflush ads.

For the loyalty points there is a clickable ad in the promo box of the lobby to
xxhttp://www.clubredgaming.com/promotion/loyalty.asp
with easy links to
xxhttp://www.clubredgaming.com/brands.asp

I think you better think of a solution how to prevent players signing up at the other casino instead with no credit for affiliates.

I understand you are quite eager to use the red club gaming site for promoting the 2 brands but this WILL hurt affiliate earnings significantly if you offer promotions this way.

I suggest it is better to create a site for 1 casino instead of linking all to the redclub gaming site.

eg ClubLavida etc.

If you are not convinced that 50% of our traffic is now a write off look at the Cross promotion email with links to red flush casino (got this one today):

You are receiving this mail because you are signed up at one of these great establishments:

I can understand why they as a business have ads like this, because it is a business after all and if they brought in a player say from their own SEO they have every right to lead that player to the other brands they own. BUT that is not to say we as affiliates deserve credit if they are cross promoting so maybe they can find a way to differentiate between the original referral of the player to assure they are mapped over if the said player opens another account at the other brand.


I know that many of the companies we work for do this same thing but I never really checked to see if the referral went all way through.

In the case that I did bring the player and they login to lavida or redflush and get the links what Inspiration posted, than it is ME who did bring in this player and I want that player be tagged under me!

My questions to Redreturns are,
How long was this going on?
Will you do checks and map over players to affiliates?

On another note:
The side pop ups for players like
"did you play our free slot tournaments today" or " 20 free spins are on xxx slot wating" .... even if they are expired I got this message, and I get the messages not only one time, NO, I get one and the same message a few times even while playing.
This is annoying players, trust me.

Thanks Rick.

I appreciate all your posts and information. I take this stuff into consideration when I add sites ... cross promotion without proper tracking is THEFT in my opinion!
