““Net Gaming Revenue” or “NGR” means all monies received by Company from New Customers as placed bets, less (a) winnings returned to New Customers, (b) issued bonuses, (c) net balance corrections, (d) administration fees, (e) fraud costs and chargebacks. For the avoidance of doubt, all Net Gaming Revenue amounts mentioned above are only related to New Customers referred to Company Websites by the Affiliate Website(s).”

Test signup and deposit is made from the Country ‘Canada-Vancouver’ since Serbia is one of the restricted countries at the casino.
Date of deposit: 19th January 2024

We deposited 0.00055 via BTC.

We started playing some slots with our balance of 0.00055 BTC

Eventually, we lost all the funds and checked the earnings report:

For the deposit of 0.00055 BTC / €20.84 NGR was €15.13

To summarize, the Effective Net Gaming Revenue (the amount of money deposited and lost) is 15.13/20.84=72.60%.

Finally, multiply the advertised revenue share rate with the Effective NGR to see your real revenue share rate, e.g:

• 25% = 18.15 %
• 30% = 21.78 %
• 35% = 25.41 %
• 40% = 29.04 %
• 45% = 32.67 %
• 50% = 36.30 %

Thanks for the audit! Not as bad as I thought compared to similar Affilka programs. Still not sure if we are enjoying a "special deal" in terms of deductions as I couldn't match our numbers anywhere near. Although only 5 months of cooperation and very restricted stats make it difficult to verify.

Hey! You should ask your affiliate manager(s) to open up more stats. Any decent affilika program will honor this request. Cashouts sum, Casino Bonus and Deposits sum are a few that can give a better perspective.

Thanks for the tip! Perhaps I should make it a standard to ask these stats to be added every time a new Affilka account is created. It's funny how there used to be almost full transparency and integrity back in the days when the whole industry was like the Wild West. Now with more regulation and corporate shit somehow these standards have vanished...

 

[Jetman]

Yes I agree with you. It has become a very slippery landscape, especially for us, as affiliates. There are way too many brands popping up that promise you certain admin fees and rev share %, only to screw you over afterwards. I have a zero tolerance policy these days. I check the stats very often and when I see weird deductions or revenue share that is not in line with what was promised, I instantly blacklist the brand. Thats the only power we have.

Yes you are correct, its a good measure to ask for detailed stats in advance, as you are then in a good position to bargain, since they want to be promoted on your site.

You got to be shitting me?! If a program doesn't display these, then they're doing so because they're hiding stats, or at least, have the idea to, if or when they decide to.

If I found out a program I'm working with didn't display these basic, and expected stats, I drop them.

If you work with Affilika brands, you need to ask for additional stats because most of them do not have them straight off the bat! I am just stating how it works with them. But I agree it would be much better if it would be something that is sorted from the get go. And yes I agree, its not transparent.
