Negative Carryover

[leporello]

I'm a new casino affiliate interested in promoting the Bodog brand. However, I'm not too keen on promoting rooms with negative carryover. are these terms negotiable?

Negative carryover doesn't scare me. IMO, as long as there is a "high winner" or "high roller" policy to protect the affiliate from a huge winner then you are fine.

It doesnt scare me, I just dont like the higher variance associated with it. There are plenty of excellent programs out there without negative carryover. However, because Bodog are a strong brand and US friendly I wouldn't like to ignore them...

I am sure that the Bodog folks will respond to this The post notifies them immediately and they are good people over there.

I would guess that negative carryover is not negotiable unless you are a very large affiliates, but that is just a guess. It never hurts to negotiate your own contract with them - just make sure it is exactly that.... a contract (and signed).

leporello, the bodog affiliate program does have a negative carry-over. From a business perspective we understand that there are pro's and cons to our terms and conditions, but feel that its correct for our business model. With that said, we understand that many affiliates have unique situations and we are always open to discuss anything with current or potential partners. If you want to discuss anything further, please feel free to send me a PM.

I go through a dance with bodog all the time - I get negative, I pull all the ads, I get positive, I put them up again, at nauseum.

I don't normally bother, but I do like the program as a whole, other than the carryover.

This has seriously crimped the revenues we could be generating though.
