The Affiliate shall engage in good business practice and comply with all applicable laws and regulations. In specific, all of the</ins> content of the Affiliate Sites and the Affiliate's marketing activities must be professional, proper and lawful under applicable laws, and in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
<br><br>

3.6 The Affiliate may not purchase<ins>, attempt to register,</ins> or register keywords, search terms or other identifiers for use in any search engine, portal, sponsored advertising service or other search or referral service and which are identical or similar to any of <ins>the</ins> Company's <ins>and/or Mr Green´s</ins> trademarks or otherwise include the word <ins>"</ins>Mr Green<ins>"</ins> or variations thereof, or include metatags on the Affiliate <del>Sites</del> <ins>Site(s)</ins> which are identical or similar to any of <ins>the</ins> Company's <ins>and/or Mr Green´s</ins> trademarks <ins>and/or the Website.</ins>

Payment of commission
<br>
4.1 The Company shall pay the Affiliate <del>a</del> commission <del>of 35% calculated on the net revenue generated from new customers based in the European Union and referred by the Affiliate Sites</del><ins>as specified below</ins>. The commission <del>shall be paid for continuously</del><ins>is based on the number of New Customers</ins>, <del>for</del> as <del>long as the new customer holds an account at</del> <ins>defined below in this Clause, who access</ins> the Website <del>. Net revenue is</del> <ins>via clicking</ins> the <del>gross revenue generated from a player's bets and losses (</del><ins>tracking links on</ins> the <del>game win) less banking fees, license fees and bonus fees from game win. The fees are a total of 28%</del><ins>Affiliate Sites. "</ins>New <del>customers</del> <ins>Customers" shall</ins> mean customers of <del>the Company</del> <ins>Mr Green</ins> who do not yet have<ins>, and have not had</ins> an account with <del>Company</del> <ins>Mr Green</ins> and who access the Website via <ins>clicking the tracking links on</ins> the Affiliate Sites, properly register and then make real money transfers at least equivalent to the minimum deposit into their <del>Website</del> <ins>website</ins> account<ins>.
<br>
4.2 The commission granted by the Company to the Affiliate will be calculated as a percentage share of the Net Revenue generated from the New Customers referred by the Affiliate Sites. Net Revenue is the revenue generated from New Customer's real money bets less real money won during that same calendar month less any applicable taxes or levies less a fixed fee of 28%.
<br>
4.3 The size of the commission (the Affiliate's percentage share of the Net Revenue) for each month depends on the total number of New Customers which has been referred to the Company by the Affiliate Sites during that same calendar month as specified in the commission structure as set out below: Number of New Customers per month Affiliate's Net Revenue share 0 - 1 25% of the Net Revenue 2 - 4 30% of the Net Revenue 5 - 14 35% of the Net Revenue 15 - 29 40% of the Net Revenue 30 + 45% of the Net Revenue
<br>
4.4 The Company will pay the Affiliate commission on a monthly basis for New Customers during the term of the Agreement. The size of the monthly commissions for all New Customers referred to the Company under this Agreement will, however, correspond with the size of the commission for the current calendar month, for which the commission is to be determined in accordance with what has been described above. Example: During the first calendar month of this Agreement, three (3) New Customers are referred to the Company by the Affiliate Sites and the Affiliate therefore receives a commission of 30 % of the Net revenue shares. During the second calendar month, only one (1) New Customer is referred by the Affiliate Sites</ins>. The <ins>size of the</ins> commission <ins>(the Affiliate's percentage share of the Net revenue) when only one (1) New Customer is referred</ins> is <ins>25 %. The second calendar month the Affiliate therefore receives a commission of 25 % for the New Customer of that calendar month, as well as for the (3) three New Customers from the previous calendar month. During the third month, six (6) New Customers are referred by the Affiliate sites and the level of commission is 35 %. Hence the third calendar month the Affiliate receives a commission of 35 % for the six (6) New Customers of that calendar month, as well as for the four (4) New Customers which have been referred during the two previous calendar months.
<br>
4.5 The Affiliate understands and accepts that the size of the commission (the Affiliate's percentage share of the Net Revenue) will vary from time to time depending on how many New Customers are referred to the Website by the Affiliate Site(s) during each calendar month.
<br>
4.6 The commission is</ins> cal</div></div></div><br> <div style="border: 1px solid #666666; width: 80%; background-color: #0099cc;"><div style="background:none repeat scroll 0 0 #ECEDDC;color:#000000;"><div style="clear:both;text-align:left;"><h2 style="font-family:Arial Black,Arial Bold,Arial,sans-serif;font-size:1.4em;"><img src="https://www.affiliateguarddog.com/partner/rss_manager/images/goodtc_bg.jpg"> Affiliate Payments</h2></div><div style="clear:both; margin-top:-10px; background-color:#F6F6EE; padding: 10px;text-align:left;border-top: 4px solid #999;">4.7 Payment of commissions shall be made <del>as per</del> <ins>by</ins> the payment method chosen by the Affiliate in the application process. The minimum payout level is 100 Euro <del>, if</del> <ins>except in</ins> the <ins>case where the affiliates selected payment method is a U.S bank account. In the payment method is a U.S bank account then the minimum payout</ins> level <ins>is 500 Euros. If the commission</ins> is lower <ins>than the minimum payout level,</ins> the commission will be transferred to the <del>next coming</del> <ins>following</ins> month. <del>If an error is made in calculating the</del> <ins>Excess</ins> commission <del>,</del> <ins>amounts received by</ins> the <del>Company reserves</del> <ins>Affiliate shall upon request be immediately repaid together with annual interest at a rate which by 6 percentage units exceeds</ins> the <ins>reference rate 3 month Euribor. The Company shall have a</ins> right to <del>correct such calculation at</del> <ins>deduct</ins> any <del>time and will immediately pay out underpayment or reclaim overpayment made to the Affiliate</del><ins>possible overpayments in previous months from outstanding payment obligations.</ins>
<br>
4.8 If the Affiliate disagrees with the balance due as reported, it shall within a period of <del>thirty</del> <ins>fourteen</ins> (<del>30)</del> <ins>14)</ins> days send an email to the Company at <del>pernilla.rutgersson@mrgreen.com</del> <ins>affiliates@msl-limited.com or such other email address as notified in writing by the Company to the Affiliate</ins> and indicate the reasons of such dispute. Failure to report within the prescribed time limit shall be deemed an acknowledgment of the balance due for the period indicated.
<br>4.9 The Affiliate agrees to <del>return</del> <ins>immediately repay, together with an annual interest at a rate which by 6 percentage units exceeds the reference rate 3 month Euribor</ins> all commissions received <del>based on</del> <ins>by</ins> fraudulent or falsified transactions, or when the traffic generated is illegal or contravenes any provision of these terms and conditions, plus all costs for legal causes or actions that may be brought against the Affiliate.
<br>
4.10 The <ins>commission is inclusive of any and all taxes, including but not limited to value added tax. The</ins> Affiliate is <ins>solely</ins> responsible for the payment of any and all taxes, fees, charges and any other money payable or due both locally and abroad to any tax authority <ins>and/ or any other authority</ins> as a result of the revenue generated under this Agreement.
<br>
4.11 The Affiliate, acting in a private capacity, further undertakes to self-pay <ins>any applicable</ins> social security contributions on the remuneration received under this Agreement.
<br>
4.12 The Affiliate, acting within a business activity, is required to provide <del>an F-tax card or other</del> proof of company registration such as a VAT-number <ins>to Company as further specified from time</ins> to <ins>time by the</ins> Company <ins>at its sole discretion</ins>. Otherwise, the Affiliate is considered acting in a private capacity and clause 4.7 directly above will be applicable.
<br>
4.13 All payments shall be made in Euro or in such other currency that may be determined by <ins>the</ins> Company and regardless of the currency of the Affiliate's home country.
<br>
4.14 The Company has the right to withhold any and/or all payments to the Affiliate if the Affiliate is in breach of any of the provisions of this Agreement. <del>If for whatever reason the payments made</del>

A link to the full terms changes are here:

Mr Affiliate_terms_scrubbed.html

If you are currently an affiliate of Mr. Affiliate, please review the terms. We will be De-certifying Mr. Affiliate until which time we can re-review the full set of changes. At this point there are too many suspect rules above for a continued certification.

NOTE: In talking with Mr. Affiliate, the commission structure has stayed the same since June. The terms were updated to reflect their commission structure only.

There are no commissions structure changes to any Mr. Affiliate affiliate.
