    Exclamation 1st Partners (formerly Rockstar Partners and Megapartners.io) - scam alert!

    Attention! Rockstar Partners, previously known as Megapartners.io, has changed its name and platform again; this time to 1st Partners.


    For all interested and involved: at one time Megapartners.io defrauded many partners and players - they quietly disappeared from the market without paying commission (including Megaslot, BitStrike, BetSomnia, etc.). This has already been discussed on the GPWA and AGD forums.

    After some time, the people responsible for Megapartners.io became active again, this time under the name Rockstar Partners to start their thieving business from scratch. Of course, they had previously stolen the commission and referred players.

    Today we learn that Rockstar Partners has already changed its name and platform to 1st Partners, thus continuing its thieving business. Be careful who you work with, so you don't regret it.

    What's more, 1st Partners aspires to be a sponsor on the GPWA and AGD platforms to build trust again... just ask yourself at whose expense...

    Hi again! Why are you linking us to Megapartners? We have never been them, and they are us, you are trying to mislead everyone. For what purpose? As for the players, as I said earlier, we got an empty base. Yes, the old players returned, but they either registered again or contacted our support service to restore access because they could not log in using their old credentials. I repeat, we have no connection with Megasport and have never been connected, except purchasing Betsomnia ( just name and domain becase we made re-design and other things ). Regarding Rockstar. Yes we are ex-Rockstar Partners cause of trademark dispute.

    If you have acquired a company (casino) that has liabilities, then unfortunately you have to settle them. This is a general rule of law. If you did not know about it, then you can have your claims against the seller of the casino, but you still have to settle the commission.

    I'll give you an example: if you bought a flat from someone with a debt, then unfortunately, you have to cover that debt.

    Another example, you bought a product that turned out to be stolen... unfortunately, you have to return it to its rightful owner in the name of the law.

    It is your fault for not properly checking the 'merchandise' prior to transaction.

    We understand your concerns regarding the situation and would like to clarify a few important points.
    According to the terms of the agreement between our company and Megapartners, all affiliate commissions up to and including August 2024 were paid to partners by Megapartners.
    Following the completion of the deal, the Betsomnia brand began operating under our affiliate program — Rockstar Partners. As part of the agreement, we received an "empty" player database, as the technical transfer of player data from one platform to another was not possible. This limitation was both technical and legal, and was clearly established in advance as part of the deal.
    We anticipated that such questions might arise, which is why Megapartners was responsible for informing partners of the transition details and for ensuring that all due commissions were paid prior to the brand’s migration to our platform. These were the agreed-upon terms.
    If you believe your rights have been violated or if our explanation does not satisfy your concerns, we are open to a professional dialogue and welcome the opportunity to jointly explore possible solutions or alternatives.
    At the same time, we would like to emphasize that the dissemination of unsubstantiated claims that may harm our business reputation could lead to legal consequences.
    However, we are confident that this matter can be resolved amicably with your cooperation and a shared commitment to fairness.

    They promised to fix the problem, but it turns out they chose to ignore us.

    - no payment
    - no contact
    - nothing...

    Nice approach...

    We are still awaiting payment for invoices from December and January. Can you provide an update about when we can expect payment?

    Our AM left the company. Always a good sign.

    Yes, it's 1st.Partners. Met them in Rome at Sigma. Always naively think if they can afford exhibiting they can afford to pay people. But I guess they used up all their budget on the booth.
