    Tossing Rival To The Curb?

    How many are thinking of taking Rivals off their sites? I have seen many redirecting traffic to other software providers, selling domains and sites over the last few days. We all know there is a serious issue with Rival and payment processing. We are going to think hard about this ourselves and start removal of the small casinos first. The ones left will be the ones that do not depend on Rival itself to process their money.

    I haven't seen reason to shut out the Rivals that I have on my WagerWitch Blog Free Bonuses yet.

    Please clarify the facts for me.

    Right now - your post is the very first one saying anything about removing them that I have seen....

    I don't have the facts yet - so - PLEASE POST THEM ALL here.

    THanks!

    I would love to hear more on this asap.
    The only one I never liked was that Irish Luck one from the past thing they did in making someone hit that progressive slot last year.
    Thanks Bonustreak for telling us to keep our eyes open on more things to come.
    Let the cat out of the bag and tell us more.

    I removed most Rival casinos from my sites due to low conversions, low player value, and because most of my high-value players were banned. I still have a few Rivals left on my sites, but I certainly won't be giving them homepage exposure anytime soon.

    I am also very disappointed in them. I still carry them because my players want them, but they are more of a customer service than a profitable thing for me.

    Yeah, I thought she meant the casinos were shutting down, etc.

    What is problematic is the centralized support they have. It leaves a lot to be desired. And some of the casinos are not prepared to pay the progressives in one batch, which seems quite odd to me.

    That's another good thing about Box24 Casino, they use their own in-house support team and also pay their progressives in full too....
