Maybe I posted in the wrong thread, but I thought it can be interested to all members, and I'm open for discussion.
The main question is: what's the best way to calculate aff. earnings?
Now we are dealing with several models (developing our aff. program) and I must admit it's pretty hard to choose the best one. So, I would like to invite affiliates and players to discuss it.
Conditions:
- 35%-45% rev share for life;
- no NCO;
- bonuses given to players are not deducted from affiliates' earnings;
To be honest - the last one is still under discussion, because it's pretty obvious that sometimes casino's earnings will be less than affiliate payments. For example, if player deposits $100, receives $200 bonus and then loses it all - affiliate payment (in case of 45%) will be equal to 300*0.45 = 135, which is more than casino actually earned (player deposited only $100).
We consider the following models:
1. Payments are calculated as [Deposits - Withdrawals] * [aff %] formula, which is calculated in the end of every month.
This one would be the best IMO, but there is always way for possible fraud. For example, player registers through aff. link, deposits $5000 and plays just a little. In the end of the month we will pay aff. earnings depends on player's deposit. In the next month the same player submits a w/d losing about $200 or so, and affiliate is just closing his account, leaving us with losses. He even may not to close it, since we will have No NCO, and just wait until negative balance is vanished.
2. Payments are calculated as [Bets(wagers) - Payouts] * [aff %] but it's pretty the same as #1
I would like to hear your opinions.
Thanks in advance!
