FA closing Major Tom

[jopaa]

Just received this:

"Hi xxxxxxx ,

The Fortune Lounge Group will be closing Major Tom Online Casino on 23 April 2015.

The closure will be seamless for players, as their cash and bonus balance, all financial account details, loyalty points and loyalty tier along with game statistics and achievements will be migrated to a Red Flush Casino account, where they can even continue to log in with the same details.

We have identified that you have previously acquired players for Major Tom, and therefore we wish to inform you that you will continue to earn on your player’s active Red Flush accounts. "

What if these players already have an account at RedFlush?

Good point... I was under the impression, if a tagged player already has an account with say 1 of the FA casinos and signed up to another, the orginal tagged affiliate gets the player. However, given that MT and Red Flush, haven't always been under the FA/Digimedia umbrella, this scenario could turn into a "major" headache for affiliates.

Makes you wonder why they even bothered.

They only reason I can come up with is...Was MT brought into the Digimedia fold, so they could cross market their other brands to MT players? It seems odd going to all this trouble to not only intergrate a casino but also the affiliate program, to then close it a few months later.

Then again these downloaded casinos are starting to become dinosaurs. No flushing, 24 hour + pending and payments only made week days (excluding public holidays and weekends).

Compare to say Guts Casino... cashouts in under 2 hours, paid 24/7/365

I agree with that first paragraph... purchased for it's player base. It's not like that doesn't happen all the time (and usually screw over affiliates in the process)
