Home >> BetUS Affiliates
With very little nudging from the AGD Certification team, BetUS has removed their minimum player rule!

The net revenue plan (25-35% net revenue) commissionable earnings will be earned for the life of the customer, on all transactions contributing to the affiliates monthly NGR, for as long as the affiliate remains a member of this affiliate program and actively promotes BetUS according to the following :
You will be paid commissions for the lifetime of your player as long as you refer at least 5 legitimate depositing players during each 3 month rolling period . If any 3-month time period should lapse in which you do not refer at least 5 players , you will forfeit the right to any future commissions on players referred previously and your affiliate account will be closed . Your affiliate manager is always available to help you develop a plan for success , and exceptions can be made at the manager’s discretion.

From the terms and conditions, it would appear that Neteller is no longer a payment option for affiliates. That would really surprise me, though, but please check with your affiliate manager.

Payments are effected by Neteller , Check, Moneybookers, Bank Wire and into a Sportsbook or Poker account.

BetUS have also updated their SPAM terms. This is a great move which will help them gain a better reputation in the long run.

We do not tolerate spamming of any kind by our affiliate partners. If spamming by an affiliate is brought to our attention we will give the affiliate one warning (if judged to be a minor case). After one warning and rules on spamming has been given to the affiliate, if the activity is not ceased he/she will be permanently banned from the program. Under no circumstances may an affiliate send email blasts including a direct link back to any page on BetUS.com using a direct reference to the brand (i.e. www.betus.com/ats/123456/) as this is considered brand infringement (see TCs). The only links permitted are those using the new encrypted token provided on the BetUS Partners site. (i.e. record.partners.betus.com/12345648679). For more details refer to Legal Responsibility, #8.

BetUS have updated their FAQ, appropriately, with rules against spamming. This is great news and all programs should adopt this level of spam-laws.

3. What is your policy on spamming?

BetUS has a brand new affiliate website. With that website comes a few changes to the existing terms and conditions. All changes are outlined below.

9. Self Referral: Affiliates are permitted to establish player accounts a player account with our client properties BetUS and wager real money on any game offered. However, BetUS policy prohibits affiliates from registering these accounts with the their player account under their own affiliate sheet.

Should the affiliate close the month with a positive balance (profit), payment will be issued to the method selected if it meets the minimum requirements and commissions will be paid on the positive balance threshold.

BetUS adds a SEM Policy to their terms and conditions which strictly forbids usage of their brand name in PPC and URLs. In addition to this, they are outlawing the usage of site scrapers to access their own information for usage on an affiliate website.

Search Engine Marketing Policy (SEM) Policy – Affiliates engaging in Search Engine Marketing to include Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and /or pay per click advertising (PPC) to promote www.BetUS.com are not authorized to utilize or bid on keywords incorporating the ?BetUS? trade name (A.K.A. branded terms) or any variation there of.

It appears that BetUS has removed ACH as a payment option for affiliates.
TERM UPDATED
Payments are effected by Neteller, Check, ACH, Bank Wire and into affiliate’s a sportsbook or poker account.
Summary: You can see, from the updated Terms and Conditions, that ACH has been removed as an option for affiliate payments. Some wordsmithing was also completed to show that BetUS WILL transfer funds into a casino account (sportsbook or poker).
BetUS have mad a small addition to their terms in regards to sub-affiliates. All affiliates promoting BetUS in a tiered manner may wish for clarification to this new addition.
TERM ADDED
Sub Affiliates will be reviewed and accepted or rejected at the discretion of the Affiliate Program management.
Summary: While we are sure this is for clarification purposes, it begs the question: ‘Do I need to monitor BetUS to ensure my sub-affiliates are being credited?’
