Bye bye affiliate industry! bet365 up for sale?

[footballaffiliate]

Can't imagine any new owners of bet365 will be as affiliate friendly as the best affiliate program in the industry. Like Skybet, Paddy/Betfair and many that have gone before them, small affiliates will lose here as any new owner looks to take as much profit as possible from their new acquisition

"The billionaire Coates family is exploring a potential sale of Bet365, the online gambling powerhouse they founded, in a deal that could value the business at up to £9bn."

Small Affiliates got shut down a long time ago - true they did keep honouring payments - its a big if though - the sale that is, some big Vegas Corp or Hedge Fund will probably snap it up

Hopefully it goes to IPO and operations including existing affiliate program remain in tact. If its a private equity buyout, shutting down the program would be a pretty quick and easy value
