    A new deal, it looks like. They haven't transferred over most of the players to BAS anyway, so that wouldn't work fully. I will find out.
    "We noticed you had an affiliate deal with 5dimes and would like to make the same deal with you."

    BAS do appear to have all the affiliate data, for instance my registered email, name and agreed rev share percentage details. No doubt they have it all.

    Maybe I jumped the gun too fast. I should have waited I signed up and they are giving me %20, 5% less then I was getting with 5 Dimes. I may wait till I get that email or send them one asking.

    20% was the standard rate. Like you I was on 25%, but I had to make a strong case even to get that. 5D were trustworthy (lol!) and not making deductions so 25% from them was worth 35-40% from elsewhere is how I rationalized it. I didn't push it after that coz it certainly earned well. I know nothing about BAS. Just reading SBR, it seems they don't accommodate the whales 5D did, which is a huge negative. Why take 20 or 25% from them when far better firms are paying 40%? Just coz BAS use the same software doesn't mean they are anywhere near as good as 5D were. Also, what tie-in to 5D do they have? I wouldn't want to promote a firm that has any common management that 5D had since the death of the founder / owner / sole manager. They might just cave when the going gets tough, like 5D appear to have done.

    They don't have any tie-ins, but lots of guys seem to like the interface 5D used. Finding a good book for Whales seem to be tricky. Bovada is always a shu-in, but many bettors already have them or been tracked already. What book are you guys looking into for Whales?

    No.1 promoted is Bovada, but also promote Bookmaker. I have been reading here Bovada is good for whales. I think they are good but not for whales? I think Bookmaker is the one but they are tricky. I did fall out with them maybe 15+ years ago when they changed the rules to 10 active in a week and then gave them another go a few years ago. Been fine ever since. It can be hard to sort things out with them to get started, you need to catch them on a good day.

    As for the 5D interface, it is old, basic and hasn't changed since day one. It harks back to the first days of the internet but it is fast, works and people only want to bet, not look at pretty pictures. It proves the key to a good book is just taking the bets, decent lines and being honest. Forget the bells and whistles.

    Did they ever change the 10 in one week? I thought it still applied? I had a falling out when they started that as well. I can make some $$ with 4-5 a week. 10 a week to start can be hard.

    do not forget that 5dimes old interface tracks 100%, unlike the sh1t tuned softwares of 2020

    good news for the poor guys like me with monies trapped at 5dimes: they pay out slowly but they do pay what i read on forums

    Yes, it still applies. I am well past that problem now. When I restarted with them I had to wait to cash out until I had enough active players. My traffic was better by then than 15+ years ago so I knew it wasn't going to be a problem.

    PS: I think they really don't want to deal with small affiliates tbh.

    I got paid last week after maybe five or six days.

    I had a small amount credited to my account on Monday. Requested a withdrawal Tuesday and haven't yet heard, but that's only 4 days.

    As you say, so far so good. Everyone's getting paid at the moment.

    If they pay now I think they will keep paying. It makes no sense to half-scam people (ok, maybe it makes sense in women logic, keep fingers crossed, apparently they think they can go on with Canada).

    Ok, I got a reply from BAS. It is a fresh start. Nothing carried over at all from 5Dimes apart, it would appear, from the same rev share deal. At 25% that may have been just about acceptable at 5Dimes but it certainly isn't anywhere else. As I say, I don't know anything about BAS and SBR's ratings are based on who pays them the most, not on anything credible. The guy has some BS sales line that also puts me off. I'll give BAS a miss for now.

    First I got a phone call from Max, I wasn’t available to take the call so he left me a message. I called back and was on hold for quite awhile and the gentleman I was speaking with gave me no indication the program was shutting down. Then I got an email from Max and mine didn’t say anything about coming back. I was told people who didn’t have a US address had to go, simple as that. I had about 25 registrations with them, but I was almost always in the hole. I did love 5Dimes though and Max was always cool with me. I always felt promoting 5Dimes gave my website more credibility. My question is, is Sportbet still part of the 5Dimes group. I wouldn’t mind if they broke off from 5Dimes and went on their own, thats another book I really like and the design is cool (in my opine).

    Buddy, I think you mean the other way around. People with US had to go. I have a question, if you don't mind. I send Max an email as well today. Have not heard back yet. How long did it take him to respond to you. Also, When you called were you able to talk to him? I was thinking about picking up the phone and trying today, but didn't. Can you still reach him by Telephone?

    Thanks,

    John

    I am not concerned at all about 5Dimes paying out. I always felt they were a solid organization and Max was very good to have as an affiliate manager.

    I see you posted this several days ago, Im sorry I didnt see it sooner. Max called me on a Saturday I believe and I called him back on Sunday. I forgot the guys name I spoke with, but I was on hold for about 10 minutes, but he got on with me like every two minutes and each time he said Max wasnt picking up. So the last time he came on I told him Id call back, but I didn't. I emailed Max later on Sunday night and Max got back to me on Tuesday. Im not worried at all about the payouts. Everytime I called prior to this happening I always got the help I was looking for. I think the affiliate and sportsbook staff are stand up ppl. In the last email from Max he told me to let him know when I requested my payout which I did today.

    So whats the deal between the two. I just signed on as an affiliate with BAS. I already replaced 5Dimes and thought it may be good to have an ace in the hole in case my replacementdoesnt work out. So I log on today to the affiliate site and it looks like 5Dimes. Is BAS a good sportsbook and is it good to affiliates? The terms seem ok. 5Dimes had the 5 monthly player rule but that was never a problem. Are BAS and 5Dimes connected? Jazz Up folks; talk to me!

    I just wonder why people here (and on AGD) are worried about not getting their payment from 5Dimes.

    Why does anybody worry about potentially losing a one-month payment when they lose their affiliate account forever? Or was everybody on CPA?
