Due to some confusion and the 2 affiliate programs (Commission.bz and Partner Earnings) merging into a new program called CommissionKings we had 2 certification threads showing, one as ROGUE and one as CERTIFIED. AGD member @B. Scott Taylor pointed this out. While we were trying to make changes and update the threads the certified section we created was deleted along with all threads and discussions in this section. For full transparency please see the full conversation of posts below:

This is the same brand as commission.bz that works for betonline and was added to the rogue list last year for retro-enforcement of new (lower) betting commissions. They just changed names. Add them to the rogue list. They have ripped off many people with their rule changes.

Does the affiliate managers name look familiar?
Frank Castle
BetOnline Affiliates
CommissionKings.ag
Yes, it should. Because that is the name of the character from Marvels' "The Punisher". If this isn't a sign of rogue affiliate operations I don't know what is. Who's is the casino manager? Tony Stark?

Hmmm I just found this forum yesterday and was searching for the various affiliates I am with (newly also). Not the post I wanted to see for searching Commission Kings.

Hey buddy, I would steer clear of them. They keep changing rules so that they don't have to pay. The most recent one: They promote a few brands, Betonline and Sportsbetting.ag. They are owned by the same company. Now they instituted a rule that they keep your commission separate for each brand. So, even if you hit the $300 minimum threshold for a payout (new rule as of a couple years ago) but the $300 is not all under one brand, you get no payout. So you can literally have $550 sitting there in your account that you cannot touch because neither brand has gone above $300.
They keep changing the rules to make it harder to get money out and they keep changing rules to keep more of your money. They are as rogue as it gets.

In the top right corner of this page is has these items checked as "No" but this is not true:
1) Have Retroactively Changed T&C's? YES they have.
2) Have Negative Carryover? YES THEY DO.
Is affiliate Guard Dog on the take? BetOnline was marked Rogue last year and now they are not?

Thanks for the info. I've been on BetOnline for years as a user, and I get quite a few Referrals (refer my friend type of thing) which is great, but then theres the 5X roll over. I figured I'd switch to promoting via an affiliate deal to get just straight money, sounds like though the Commission Kings aren't so great from what you're saying. I might just switch back to the Refer a Friend program for them and focus my affiliate efforts on other sports books. Bovada via Betting Partners has been my other one where I used to get a decent amount of Bovada refer a friend bonus funds, would rather just earn cash via being an affiliate. Luckily I havent earned anything on Commission Kings yet that Id have to care about losing.

@B. Scott Taylor - hmmm you right, seems we might have gotten things confused. We are dealing with many programs and when they rebrand, change terms etc things can be missed. Need to be on the ball!
We are looking into it.
