Predatory Terms

The response, by Focal Click's affiliate manager - Re: Predatory Terms

In regards to the predatory clause, I understand your concern. However, this is only used in these cases.

1. Say an affiliate has 2 players. In actuality this affiliate has a customer that has multiple accounts with 2 or more casinos. They loose $5K in one casino and then win $10K in another. Focalclick would have to pay on the losses and then zero out the wins. At this point, FC looses $5K and is still paying out to the affiliate. In this case, if you as an affiliate don't have 3 or more customers in the account, they cannot justify paying.

2. In the case where an affiliate has 1 customer in their account. The customer looses $5k in January, then wins $20K in February, and then looses $1K in March. If this is the only player in the account, Focalclick cannot justify paying in March, since overall they are down $14K on this player. They cannot justify paying on that players losses for March . If they have more customers in the account that are playing, Focalclick would pay.

These instances are rare and only happen once in a while, but they do happen. Focalclick can't justify paying on 1 customer in an affiliate account that is up on the casinos over the period of several months.


OUR RESPONSE: AffiliateGuardDog.com feels that this response is acceptable and certainly gives us a better feeling about the predatory clause (above). Thank you, Mark, for explaining how this rule would be enforced. The term is still considered a minor infraction and will remain listed as predatory. However, Focal Click T&C's are not (as a whole) predatory.
