RA News :: March 2010

Hey there Affiliates! All of you in the northern hemisphere must be HANGING for summer which is just around the corner for you.. I'm actually starting to become depressed already that summer is on it's way out here in Oz. We have about a month or so left of decent weather until the cold comes.. you guys would probably think it's a treat, our winter. The lowest it gets is about 14 celcius. Probably not that cold compared to some of the countries in the northern parts of Europe or North America, but it's cold for me! Give me 40 celcius every day with 0 humidity and I'm the happiest girl in the world. There are a few more goodies this month. We have finally finished the long awaited IM-Pop that we promised late last year, not to mention that I'm pretty excited about our beach volleyball and bbq towards the end of March for the Down Under conference. We will definitely be making the most of what's left of our summer. This year is absolutely flying by already. I'm seriously getting scared to close my eyes because when I open them it may be October already! Have a great month and I'll see you in April Renee Renee@RewardsAffiliates.com The MSN-Like Pop we have been promising you is finally here! For those who are out of the loop so to speak, the IM Pop is a small popup window that looks very much like an online alert from MSN which advertises the casino promotions. We have been testing this one for quite some time and have found the conversion rate on these babies is unbelievable. It's no surprise considering that if you see an online alert on MSN you automatically look to see who it is, right? So it gets people looking at it. This tool is available in English, French, Italian, Spanish, German Danish and Norwegian at the moment with more languages on the way. If there is a language you'd like, please let us know so we can get it for you You can find the tool accompanied by an example by logging into the RA site under Marketing Tools > IM Pop. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on affs@RewardsAffiliates.com iGB DownUnder is a niche event organised by iGB Affiliate Events which focuses on the Australian, New Zealand and Asian market as well as opportunities for local affiliates outside these locations. iGB DownUnder guarantees up to date and informative content on the Asian and Australasian iGaming markets, a new look expo, unique networking opportunities, the Affiliate Series of Poker and as always it’s FREE for affiliates to attend. Rewards Affiliates will be sponsoring the Wind Down Session on Friday March 26th at the beautiful Bronte Beach, hosting a beach volleyball day and traditional Aussie BBQ. As for any event where we need to feed you (and don't forget the alcohol), we need to know how many people will be coming, as well as any extra notes (allergies etc). Please let us know by RSVPing here by March 23. We're looking forward to seeing everyone there! With the iGB Down Under show almost behind us, the Prague SuperShow is creeping up slowly behind it. This show has been designed to get all aspects of the industry under one roof, essentially bringing together the likes of ICE and the LAC. Those who attended the shows in London back in January will know that they were HUGE, so this show is expected to be absolutely MASSIVE... and the best part is that it is free for EVERYONE! The Prague SuperShow will be held in Prague on May 25-28. If you plan to attend, please register at www.igamingsupershow.com then let us know so that we can organise a time to chat With the "religious holidays" almost upon us, we just wanted to let you know that we will be out of the office from April 2 and returning on April 6. Of course you can always get us on the blackberries for anything urgent. Happy long weekend We have had so many affiliates ask us if we are on Twitter that we finally decided to see what all the fuss is about and now we are FINALLY on Twitter!

Great tool, I have installed the pop on the CA and UK-club pages. Thanks!

You're welcome!

It's pretty cool eh?

I'm interested to know who else is using it and if anyone has any languages they would like to request?
Cheers
