payment methods taking AGES

[pokertramp]

hi Becky
Are you all trying to find a new way to pay US affiliates? I get paid via player account and for Nov. commissions, by the time I got paid and cashed out via check, I just received the check last week. It took til almost mid January to get my November earnings. And this month I still have not been paid via player account and now I probably won't get my December earnings til mid Feb. There must be a quicker way to get paid, I don't mind waiting til mid month or even end of month the following month, but not 6-8 weeks. That's just not right. I know it's not your fault or Ricks, in fact Rick is fantastic with helping me out at all times. I'm just wondering if there's anything in the works or if the affiliate group can pay directly so we don't have to wait as if we were players. I do play sometimes and don't mind the wait for winnings, but earnings should be looked at differently.
thanks

Hey there,

Apologies, I am actually not part of Betting Partners so I don't know the answer- I encourage you to direct your questions to Rick (for anyone else, please contact your dedicated Betting Partners affiliate manager).

Sorry I cannot be of more assistance,
Becky

hi Becky
I don't quite understand how you are a rep for Betting Partners, but not really with Betting Partners, forgive me, but to me, it makes no sense.

[TheGooner]

Rebecca is NOT a rep for Betting Partners - but for the "Bodog brand" (whatever that is these days?!)

Here is the corporate speil :

BodogBrand is about marketting and selling the image of the Bodog Brand.

Bovada.lv Bodog.co.uk, Bodog.ca, and Bodog88 are all seperate licensees of the bodog name / brand working in different parts of the globe.

BettingPartners are a separate organisation that seem to do the affiliate work for some of the Bodog / Bovada licensees.

So that's about six different groups ...

What I REALLY think has happened ...

Basically, after talking tough for five years and being a "bigshot" during various DoJ activities it appears to me that Calvin Ayre started to get the cold sweats about a year ago and has been rapidly trying to distance himself from the actual gambling activities of the brand he created.

So Mr Ayre and his entourage sit on the sidelines making little asides and comments on CalvinAyre.com - while claiming that they have absolutely nothing to do with the actual operations of the Bodog / Bovada gambling establishments - or the payment of money to gambling affiliates.

It's smoke and mirrors I reckon - but so far they're sticking to the script.


The upshot is that if you want discuss BettingPartners affiliate payment activities - you have to do it directly with BettingParters either via email with your affiliate manager - or via the messaging facility on the BettingPartners website.

DISCLAIMER :
I have nothing to do with Calvin Ayre, Bodog, Bovada, or Betting Partners ... other than providing affiliate services and getting paid on time. The obvservations above are my own - based on the experiences of last three months.

Ellen, my payments come as check via FedEx every month. It is paid direct from the affiliate side. Your AM should be able to change your payment options from "Player Account" to "Check via Courier". Usually I see the truck pull up around the 15th although she has not come down the driveway yet for last month's payment.

hi Chips
I had no idea that option was available. I cashout of the player account using check via fedex, but with not getting paid til the 15th (which I still have not gotten paid for this month) I do an immediate cashout, and the check doesn't come for 3-4 weeks. So by the time I get my earnings it's 6-8 weeks.
I will ask Rick if he can change my payment option to direct payment via check.

Anyone get paid yet from Betting Partners? I still have not gotten paid.

[TheGooner]

I got my November payment via wire about the 13th of January (it was a month late - possibly due to changeover?)

[Breakfastman]

I received my november payment per wire yesterday (19th of Jan). Also a month later than normal.

[baldidiot]

Has anyone received their dec payment? My balance updated around the 15th but no payment was issued (moneybookers).

EDIT: Received

And BOOM - the US Doj agrees and publicly indicts Calvin Ayre today ...
I guess that's put a big cramp in his playboy lifestyle ...

[BeckyCA]

well, not exactly...take a look at Calvin's statement and some more info & updates about the indictments and seizure at his media site, CalvinAyre.com.

hi Becky
Is this going to affect anything with affiliate payments? I am expecting a check from bovada, the 15 business days it takes to process, is up tomorrow...will I have a problem with this check?
Thanks

Hi there,

I don't work for Betting Partners or Bovada so I would suggest contacting your affiliate manager if you have any questions about payments, but I can tell you that the bodog.com domain seizure/indictments have nothing to do with BP or Bovada.
