Rival Programs - Progressive Good/Bad List

[bb1webs]

I thought he started out okay but that's as far as I disagree with you .

in either case he certainly has ended up as less than he'd have preferred we think, is probably fair to say.


Well I'm surprised at lions but perhaps shouldn't be, they aren't very visible to affs.

I will be curious to see how many of our peers weed their garden and how many continue to list every place they can find (casino city gets no pass with me on this) .... their logic being they want to be a place that lists EVERY online casino.

I hope most affs are smarter than that. That they see that there is no gain to anybody who deserves to gain, by listing places which are only going to fuel the line of thinking with the sponsors who aren't undesirable to say "why bother? those other places are getting same treatment as we do".

Please everyone ... weed your garden.

I heard that! In the year and a half that I have been promoting Lion Slots I have never once been contacted by their affiliate representative about anything whatsoever...nothing, zilch...nada!! Piss poor service IMO of an affiliate manager!

I have always (since 2006) had all my 400 Group commission in one lump sum - all 4 casinos added together (not bundled).
Are you saying they individually pay you?

The way I understand it is they all live under one roof but the 2 pairs are separate like Guard Dog pointed out.

My best guess is payments are send all at once for convenience.

Last month I had a winner at Cocoa that would have wiped out all earnings if they were bundled but I still have earnings for the other 2, Tiv and Da'Vincis due.

Regarding Lion Slots, I've been pulling them as I read complaints at CM.

Personally, I've getting kinda tired of constantly policing all these programs on a continual basis.

I'm going friggin backwards here.

How strange!

What I have been told is that, the payments from all the 400 are handled together, for convince, by RIVALS payment processing. But each individual payment MUST be approved and the money paid to RIVALS processor by the individual casino, before any payment goes out.

I am only owed money by TIV. I guess that was my mistake, just promoting one of these casinos... Looks like if I had promoted more than just TIV I would have had a better chance of getting paid.

Still no money...

Agreed... Paradise8 and Cocoa, run by JetSet Marketing (as I recall) are being run well and the other 2 are just living off the fame of those 2 casinos. I will see what I can do to change the payments system - but it does involve quite a bit. I will have to have separate forums as well.

Thanks Andy. Your the best!

Got to say, I am really disappointed with John.

Yep - same here. All I have in my "Lion Slots" folder are some of their automated weekly/monthly report e-mails.
Still, I don't really mind since I am averaging $4,000 - $5,000 commission per month from them.


... in my dreams!!!
Actually I get a small, slow, steady trickle from them - not the worst Rival by a long chalk; not while we have the Rockbet Group, TiV, Club Vegas, Irish Luck & Tropica with their crap welcome bonuses...

Club Vegas....lol, I guess I've made about all of $18 with them in the past year but yet again no contact there either...I'm just wondering if some of these are ran by couch potatoes...

Thanks Bonustreak, I appreciate hearing that, especially since I just signed up to their program yesterday...

I always like to see reps take an active participation role here for sure and hopefully Erin will decide too as well.

Helloooooooo it's Erin In truth I would have posted my reply directly but I generally contact AGD personally so that I am sure they see my response and ask me direct questions if they have any.

I will certainly try to make a better effort to visit forums more often. Those of us accustomed to sportsbook affiliate marketing are new(ish) to the forum frenzy. Very few sportsbook affiliates are active on any forums so it's taking some getting use to now that we are treading deeper into casino territory.

(The secret concern about my spelling and horrible last name combined with the worry of potentially tragic auto-completion on words like function or share also make me a bit shy on forums - I can't lie)

This is also our company's second busiest time of year so while this conversation has been going on I have been in full on March Madness mode - completing the worst bracket in the history of basketball.

We are wide open to ideas and hope that reviewing these threads will help us continually improve our suite of products and program overall.

Thanks so much for your time and thanks Bonus babe for the shout out!

Hi Erin,

Welcome To The Forum! Do you think you guys will be getting more casino marketing tools that focus more towards your rival casino, as its not very visible on your site that you do have rival games.... unless I'm looking in the wrong place.

Hi Rhonda,
Thanks for your reply. It's great to meet you.

We will definitely be amping up our promotion of our Rival casino in the coming weeks and have loads more to offer in terms of creative and promotions. We'll soon be moving the download casino off the main site since a standalone will certainly convert better and will bring true casino clients to exactly where they wish to be.

Appealing to footballers and poker players, horsey bettors and casino clients from one source can be difficult as you can imagine. While cross-selling products is valuable, and residuals on other channels is attractive to affiliates, we prefer to shift our focus entirely to casino where our Rival site is concerned.

We won't be making the switch until March Madness is over however so even though my bracket is busted I still have to wait patiently for someone to win

Erin, babe I need to speak with you about some AGD stuff I will try and call you in the am. So glad to see you here and I know you will be back to see me very soon
