entainpartners.com - Any experiences good, or bad, you wish to share?

[antihacker]

Hello all,

A friend of mine is moving into the Portuguese market. The first program he has a question about is Entainpartners. I've never worked with them before, and for that reason would like to consult my fellow forum members to find out if anybody has any experiences, good, or bad, to share about them.

I see that some of the brands (Bwin, Partypoker and Gala) have rather bad history stories on the forum.

It's 2023. Has anything changed? Is it a safe and good program? Are these brands treating affiliates as they should?

Looking forward to your answers and thanking you in advance.

I just found this thread, and now am wondering, did they just rebrand and go on like they used to, or did they actually change more than just the name?

Hi - it might depend on who you speak to. Yes, they are a big successful gambling company, and they rebranded to Entain in 2020 I believe. But in my experience trying to work with them as an affiliate has been a nightmare & their communication is terrible. I would steer clear, but interested to know other affiliates current perspectives.

Clearly Entain have a bad reputation in our business. On the other side, speaking just for myself - out of more than 100 affiliate programs I've worked with in the past 15 years they are one of the very few standing that I still work with and get paid without any problems (putting aside the hard shave when bwin merged with Sportingbet but this is life). It quite depends on the market, if they tag you to a market that is interesting for them you will be treated better. It is same with most other bookies. As bwin is explicitly focused, licensed etc. on the PT market too I think it is worth a shot.

Have been ripping off affiliates and stealing player bases for years. The name change has not changed these crooks into saints. Why anyone would work with them . . .

[nwalker]

Echo what others say, you should steer clear. They'll close your accounts for no reason and steal your players. Rebranding didnt change them.

[antihacker]

Truly appreciate all of your feedback on this. Thank you all.

The absolute scum of the whole industry. Vile slimy people who will have their tongues deeply inside you when they are getting something, then discard you like a piece of **** when they feel like it. I would avoid these parasites at all costs.

My company is working with them several years. Yes, communication was pretty bad in the past but in the last few months it became much better. Can't say anything bad apart from that. One of the most important things is payments we haven't issues with them for years.

Based upon the facts other write here, and my personal experience overall for more than 2 decades in the gambling industry, I'm afraid I will have to answer you with a question.

The question being:

Are you sure? If they are shaving, you won't know just how much they have been robbing. If they keep you quiet, then for sure, with reputations this bad, you will be losing more than that you think you're earning out of your traffic in my humble opinion. I sure wish it is not like that for you, but apparently you will be the only one!

Another question, which company are you referring to, considering you are a content writer by profession? Did you write content for them?

Thanks for your feedback! Much appreciated.

I was thinking that. Yes. Thank you. Best way of putting it.

Reading on LinkedIn about Entain laying off hundreds of people. This is days after an acquisition of a company called Anstrom.

I don't recommend partnership with them, especially after everything I've read about them. Quite worrying and alarming!

After MGM decided not to pursue an acquisition, Entain shares dropped and has stayed low.

shockingly bad - they also have this duplicate rule - where if the player is at one of their other numerous properties - they wont pay for the player - even if you have sent it to them for the first time.

Avoid this bunch like the Bubonic Plague is my advice

They took over sportinteraction last year. pldr same sht as always

my affiliate manager went non-responsive (the best in industry - Richard)
emerged payment issues
emerged stats issues
commissions down
next month they go under entain platform (i was assured they will be independent; payments already handled by entain)
i expect robbery of all players in few months max

Exactly the same when they bought Coral, Gala, Ladbrokes.

Apart from Ladbrokes, was great brands. Same management went from very happy and helpful, to scumbags overnight.

Everything they touch, turns to shite.

[drifter8]

Never will recommend them - stealing players, non-responsive and in general you may find 0.001% of affiliates happy for some reason.

They are crooks and they are never feeling ashamed for doing bad and immoral things during the years.

[danwilliams]

yeah, there are always risks of shaving and I can't tell if they shaved us or not. Reading all the replies now I thing they probably did.

By company I meant the affiliate site I worked for
