Aren't the payouts on 15th of each month?

[livefree247]

Hey livefree, I think they may be doing the budafest thing. That may be why he is not responding. I also hate the $200 min thing. Do you use moneybookers? How do these guys pay you?

Hi Puma, no moneybookers for USA just wire ACH and QT

Ben,

If an affiliate is being paid via Moneybookers; Neteller or a similar web wallet I honestly can not understand why C-Planet places a *$200 min on payments.

Many affiliate programs have a min $50 payment to web wallets. IMO that's a fair bottom line. But $200 is outragious.

The problem becomes ever more frustrating when I add up the 10 or so programs that I have $90 or so sitting in that do not meet the $100 min payment threshold; just like the C-Planet payment threshold.

Add all these up on a monthly basis and it's around $1,000US.

As an affiliate I feel people shouldn't have to endure such limits, when they have sent aff programs players.

In so far as your comments:

If you want to improve stats you should spend time on SEO , links , PPC , offline promotions and building a big data base.

I can't answer for anyone else but going on my stats they don't warrant me pushing your brand harder because frankly they don't convert ****!

And whilst I'm here...What you said to livefree247 IMHO was way out of line!!! It's about one of the most arogant things I've ever read from an affiliate manager.

FFS cut the girl some slack...Obviously $188 means jack to you...Guess that's easy for someone who receives a salary

Just so we're on the same page, it's the affiliates job to send the casino traffic. It's the casino(s) job to convert this traffic into depositing players.

*Of course if I was paranoid I could well think that my traffic is being cross marketed to and this is why these stats are so pathetic.

Oh and the traffic is decent; it's highly targeted. In fact for every other casino I promote on the site, I earn an average of $300 p/m with each program just on that site alone.

So obviously the issue lays with Oasis Casino's inability to convert my traffic. Or as I said previously my traffic is being cross marketed to and I'm not being credited with these players.

Either way something just doesn't add up.

Anyway I think the C-Planet $200 threashold sucks and if the truth be known it's in place to screw over affiliates.

I'm sure that more than a few affiliate webmasters give up on your program, pull your links and will never meet the $200 threshold. Which basically means another win win for another affiliate program.

Gotta agree with you there. the $200 limit is a bit harsh especially for smaller affiliates. programs want affiliates to spend more time on SEO and such things to send them traffic but wont give them a cent unless they make 200 $$ ? Maybe affiliates could afford to spend some money on SEO if they didn't have to wait for a lousy 200 payment. Pay the lady ( livefree ) already and stop wasting our time with petty policies like min payment amount.

[livefree247]

Hi Guys,

sorry for the late update. I was paided on the 28th and the only reason

why was I made over $200, $206 to be exact...lol

Jun 1, 2009 - Jun 30, 2009 Total:$188.66

they never paided me for this commission

it was carried over to July, I then made $17.45
that brought it to $206.11 which I received 8/28/09
and I must mention my last payment was either wrong, or c-planet is no longer paying the ACH fee because my account was only credited $179. and these guys do not respond to my emails or Pm's I have sent from here about this. it seems to me they just don't give a ****, and if that's the way I'm going to be treated, I won't promote them anymore...I'm making crap anyway.

[livefree247]

Hi, I must also add that most RTG Casinos have a min payment of $200

[Rushmore Ben]

Hi Dave,

1. I stand by what I said to livefree247, I do think she should spend more time growing her business, if you find this arrogant then I have been accused of a lot worse.

2. As for your profanities, I do not take offense , you have every right to rant and rave.

3. You did point one thing correctly that I am an employee, as such i did NOT decide on the $200 min, but I will pass your suggestions forward to the owners.

4. If you feel we are not converting, then please feel free to promote other brands instead, your advertising inventory and traffic are precious so you must do whats best for you.

Regards

Ben

About the $200 minimum.. I don't think it's high at all for a wire/ach payment. I really don't expect any program to send me a wire for less than that. Considering the cost and problems that can arise. I do think that minimum could be lower for QT payments though.

Also, if fees come out before you receive a wire, remember that sometimes there's a financial institution in between there send and our receive that tacks on a fee. It works that way with Intertops I know.

I have that minimum with Fortune and Rewards for all payments.

One other thing I wanted to say about Ben. He's always been responsive to any emails I've sent. I don't expect a reply on the weekends and don't have to email him often. But I always get a prompt reply. Thanks for your reply today Ben.

[Former Member 14]

Hi Daera,

A $200 min payment on a wire is to be expected.

But not all affiliates are in the USA. Those that aren't may receive their payments via a web wallet for example. These services don't attract the high costs associated with QT or bank wires.

Therefore IMHO there is no reason why C-Planet should have a $200 min for affiliates who received payment via a web wallet.


Cheers



Dave
