Mr Green to add quotas

Dear Affiliate

Mr Affiliate is pleased the announce the implementation of a brand new commission plan which will come into effect on the 1st of June 2012.

The premise behind the new plan is to ensure that your hard work is rewarded with extra revenue. We appreciate the hard work you do which is why we want to reward you accordingly. Mr Affiliate wants to give you the opportunity to control your own revenue which is why we are offering you up to an amazing 45% revenue share.

Our brand new revenue share model is based on the amount of new depositing players that you deliver to Mr Green and is detailed below.

Amount of FTD's Revenue share %
0-1 25%
2-4 30%
5-14 35%
15-29 40%
30 + 45%

Mr Affiliate has done a careful analysis of our affiliates to create a fair and achievable tiered revenue structure. So how does this new commission plan work?

You will get a corresponding percentage of reward based on the amount of first time depositors you have in the current month. The Net Revenue is then calculated as a percentage from the total Net Revenue generated by all affiliated customers in a month.

It’s important to keep in mind that rewards are recalculated on daily basis therefore you can see updated rewards daily in your statistics. Monthly Payment are then generated at the end of the month based on final reward calculations. In the new month revenue share calculations will start again based on the number of FTDs you refer in that month.

What do you all think? The minimum % is 25% though which isn't bad - I'm not happy about it to be honest but not as bad as others.

I think it REALLY SUCKS!

Currently the terms are 35% for all players.
Current T&Cs:

4.1 Company shall pay the Affiliate a commission of 35% calculated on the net revenue generated from new customers based in the European Union and referred by the Affiliate Sites. The commission shall be paid for continuously, for as long as the new customer holds an account at the Website.

If it is to be applied retroactively:
This change will cost smaller affiliates (like me) to lose at least 5%, but more likely, 10% of my commission.
This SHOULD also land Mr.Green in the Rogue pit!

PS: Don't forget, NetEnt fees of 15% are also taken off Gross revenue before your commission is calculated, so the 25% Net is only 20.8% of Gross (after bonuses, charge-backs etc. removed)

Yeah it sucks.. It's the same crap Ladbrokes gave us. Worst of all they bring it like it's a change to our benefit.
New depositing players.. ridiculous.

[Guard Dog]

It will land them in the rouge pit if it is retroactive. I think the title is wrong, though... where are the quotas?

The message I received says that you have to opt in to the new model.

Dear Affiliate

Mr Affiliate is pleased the announce the implementation of a brand new commission plan which will come into effect on the 1st of June 2012. You have the option to remain on your existing commission plan or opt in for this new one.

I'm not sure why that important bit of info was missing from the email posted above.

that part is missing in the email I received as well.. strange:

etc etc etc

The OPT in part is missing in my email as well. They have most probably segmented us after X FTD's we generate monthly which in my opinion is a really sh*tty move from their side. If they do this they should treat everybody the same (but we all know that isn't the way when it comes to affiliates). Also giving less than a months notice is bad as well. In my opinion they should let all old affiliate accounts choose to opt in or not.. but at the end of the day it's their business and they choose their partners/friends for the future.

I will make sure to voice my concerns directly to their affiliate department... I hope that you all do it so we can make a change.

I was also not given the opt in to continue on with the currant plan, so they are enforcing predatory changes to me!

[Guard Dog]

Same here and I have contacted them about this. It certainly appears that they have 'favored' affiliates with whom they want to be more careful. However, breach of contract really isn't an option.

[KasinoKing]

Yep - I didn't have the "op in" part in my e-mail either.
Looks like big affiliates get the choice to stay on 35%, the rest of us get screwed!
