Commission Options

Rewards Affiliates will pay you a commission for players who register an account at one of our Group Member's websites (the "Sites") through your referral link (a "Player"), depending on which one of the following options you choose. At the time of joining the Affiliate Program, you must nominate which option you have chosen.

Option number 1: $50 CPA Model
$50 for every referral who signs up and deposits $100. We will pay you a onetime fixed fee of $50 for each new Player you have referred that has opened an account at one of the Sites and made an initial deposit of $100 or more.
-
Option number 2: Wager Model
Percentage of revenue the Player you refer wagers at one of the Sites. On this payment model you will earn 35% of the margin on each game type per bet generated by a Player, regardless of win or loss.
Wager model commission will be calculated in the following way:

Option number 3: Revenue Share Model

Commission % |
0 - 10 |
25% |
11 - 20 |
30% |
21+ |

Revenue Share will be calculated in the following way:
(Casino Profit) x Commission Percentage = (Total Loss – Total Payouts – Non-Cash Items – Applicable gaming taxes and gaming fees) x Commission Percentage
"Total Loss" refers to combined total loss at all casino brands.
"Non-Cash Items" refers to the value of free credits or bonus money handed out to players by the casino or any other direct costs incurred to maintain the loyalty of a Player.
The Tiered Revenue Share Model does not carryover negative balances due to player wins, and is available only on new accounts.
Number of purchasing players is not accumulative and resets at the beginning of each month for all players.
- In the event you negotiate a tailored commission option with us, should you fail to adhere to the terms agreed between us in writing, you will be reverted to the prior commission model you were on before switching to a tailored commission and you will be paid the commission rate of such prior commission model for all Players referred under the tailored commission option.
- You will not be permitted to switch from the Revenue Share Model to the Wager Model and vice versa, unless authorised by Rewards Affiliates in writing. An affiliate can however have a Wager Model account as well as a Revenue Share Model account.
- Webmaster Referral Commission: 5% sub-affiliate commission will be paid to you based on the Net Commission (as defined in Section 1.1 and related subsections) from players sent by Webmasters that you refer to us directly.
- We reserve the right to implement a thirty (30) day rollover period for any large jackpot wins.
- The Rewards Affiliates tracking system will be the sole method for determining the payments and will be binding on both parties.
- We will provide you with a password and login name for up to the minute monitoring. Please note that any data displayed in your account intended for informational purposes only, on an "as-is" basis and is not to be relied upon for any other purpose, including for payment. Such data is provided on a dynamic basis and may change. In case of discrepancy between the data provided through your account and our records, our records shall take precedence.
-
Payment
- All payments and amounts mentioned in this Agreement are in US Dollars.
- Subject to the identification requirements outlined in paragraph 2.8, we will send payment by the 7th of each month, however, the date of receipt is determined by multiple factors and, as such, we will not be held responsible for processing times after the fact. No transfer for less than $200 will be issued (unless you request that we close your account) so the amount will be carried over to the next payment period.
- If you choose the $50 CPA Model and the majority of your referrals are promotional hoppers (identified as Players who only play for a small amount of bets and then cash out with all or part of the promotional bonus either within or outside of the promotional rules), we reserve the right to fully pay you in accordance with option 1 for the first casino account registered by a Player only, and switch you to payment option 2 and pay you from the date of switching over a percentage of the Player's wagering in accordance with the terms and conditions. In this event, any Player you already received commission for under payment option 1 will not be included in your ongoing commission outlined in payment option 2.
- If you choose the 35% Wager Model commission option and your account is found to only be sending Players who have an extremely high bonus to purchase ratio, i.e. where the bonuses are more than 500% of the deposit amount, or only claiming no deposit bonus offers, we reserve the right to automatically switch you to commission option 3 being Tiered Revenue Share Model. This change will be retroactive and your account will be adjusted to reflect the change for the whole month in which the change has occurred and thereafter.
