Title:Mecca Affiliates Terms take a turn for the worstDate:September 15, 2009 3:08 pm


Mecca Affiliates has taken their Minimum Player Rule and turned it into a 1 month rule… This means, no new player for a month…. you get a lower revshare percentage.

TERMS UPDATE, Commissions, Minimum Player Rule

6.9.1 If the Affiliate does not refer any new depositing players in a period of one (1) month, the revenue share percentage shall be 25% until such time as the Affiliate refers one or more new depositing players.


6.9.2 The Company reserves the right to set limits for a change the requisite minimum level of activity on affiliate accounts. Such minimum activity levels will be continuously reviewed and the Company reserves the right to terminate this Agreement if the Affiliate activity does not reach the minimum level. Such level shall not be unreasonably high and shall reflect the Company’s intention of avoiding accounts where the revenue does not cover the Company’s internal costs for maintaining the account and the payout procedure. If the Affiliate does not refer any new depositing players in a period of three (3) months, the revenue share percentage shall be 25% until such time as the Affiliate refers one or more new depositing players.


TERMS UPDATE, Commissions, Payment Method Fees

6.3 Payment of commission shall be made as per the payment method chosen by the Affiliate in the application process. If an error is made in calculating the commission, the Company reserves the right to correct such calculation at any time and will immediately pay any underpayment to or reclaim overpayment from the Affiliate. If the Affiliate selects Neteller as payment method, the Affiliate agrees to pay the fee associated with payments via this method.


Summary:This term is predatory on 2 levels. First off – there is the minimum player rule which reduces commissions (even though their main website mentions that their commission rate is 35% (for life). Second – they have retroactively changed their contract and are in breach of their own contract as such.

Mecca Affiliates have added a payment minimum for UK Bank transfers as shown below.

REMOVED TERM, Commissions, Minimum Playment for UK Bank Wires

The minimum is £100 for non UK bank transfers.


Summary:Mecca Affiliates now has a minimum for UK Bank Transfers. This is probably just clarification as we are confident they had a minimum previously. Good move to make it part of the T&C’s, though.
