Question for serious affiliates

[Webzcas]

Great thoughts here, wanted to ask if you guys would consider working with a third party if all of the above criterias were met, if not, why?

I've always worked direct with the program connected to the casino/poker/sportsbook rather than through a super affiliate site such as Brand Conversions.

My reasoning is that I prefer the direct route to the casino/poker/sportsbook in question. I also like to meet in person the operators before I start promoting a particular site.

The only exception to this rule is Income Access. But at this moment in time, I do not promote any of their properties.

Thanks @Engineers @KasinoKing @lots0 for sharing the requirements All of them are quite important for me and for any affiliate in the market.

(...) My question to you is what are the 10 (or any other number ) most critical factors in your decision to work with an affiliate program. (...)

- NO "second hand" stats (I do not work anymore with resellers aff programs for this)

I only work with aff programs with ugly managers.

Currently my preferred look is:

I will give you my top 2:
1: Customer support from the affiliate program to the affiliate.
2: A casino that is going to take care of the players, stand by their word, give the bonuses and promotions that were offered and make timely payouts.

How far down on the list are netentertainment casinos for you guys when it comes to promoting them. Good/bad?

Hey Engeneer.

what do you mean by affiliate friendly T&c?
What would you accept and what is out of question?

He means (I think) terms that are acceptable to the Certification Team here. There are plenty of terms NOT accepted and plenty that we read and feel there are open loopholes for affiliate programs to 'stiff' affiliates with.

Typical big-time 'no no's' are:

1. Minimum Player Rule - You must bring x number of players per month, 3 months, 6 months, ect.. in order to receive commissions, receive x%, etc..

2. Minimum Activity Rule - You must have x number of depositing players per month (similar to above)

3. Minimum Activity Rule (another variation) - You must have x number of clickthrus... blah blah blah

4. Minimum Withdrawal - You must have $2500 (high number) in commissionable earnings to receive your affiliate payment.


There are a lot... those are only a couple of the glaringly obvious.

I never thought that i wil find casinoaffs on AGD.

Affiliate friendly terms? First rule is to pay commision , so casinoaffs will be not accepted :-)

Personally, alongside affiliate friendly terms i'm looking for AMs that are communicative and responsive when i make suggestions. They don't need to agree with me on everything, but i also don't want to have to send a mail a half dozen times before i get a responce. Actually i've got to say that i'm really impressed with the Boyle affiliate team just now. I've brought two issues regarding their operation to them in the last 8 weeks and both have been dealt with very very quickly. I can say for sure that many other programs would have ignored the feedback i gave.
