What you get in your scenario is 52 cents on every $100 wagered. This is an always positive number for the affiliate, but slightly risky for the house - I know of instances where a $100 deposit has been put through $10000 in wagers... that's $52 for the affiliate, and if the player has money left the house takes a bigger loss.
On the other hand, this may make a lot less money for you if you happen to have players who constantly lose LOL. You can almost view it like a poker rake. And keep in mind the house index on blackjack will not be higher than 2%.
Vanessa, are there ever any deductions for any reason (such as chargebacks)?
Pros: You will always make money every month.
Cons: You will not make a lot of money every month.
I'd have to put that calculation on some of my existing figures from other programs - using an average of 3% - to see how it works out, but really the fact that you always make money is a big plus if you don't like the possibility of a goose egg at the end of the month.
