What Do You Find Is The Best Affiliate Program?

[WinYourWayKyle]

Hey All,

I am just wondering what is the best affiliate program that you promote. If you use revenue share or CPA, which one has the best conversion ratio and best player retention rate? I would like to hear what you all have to say about this?

I would have to say that Brightshare is my best converting program. Before the new law came into effect, I had new player sign ups every month (at least 1-5 per month) and the retention is good. I have several loyal players that spend upwards of over $1,000 a month, but of course now things have changed and revenue is definitely down, but it is still my best performing program. I get paid via the revenue share method.

My next best program would be Fortune Affiliates, and before Casino Rewards changed to the wagering model, that was a great converting program for me, but now you can hardly make anything with that program.

IMHO, Pearl Gaming is the best Affiliate Program because they provide very simple tools to build every aspect your web site(s). They also provide amazing support. Not just on technical issues either. If I ask an Affiliate Manager, hey how can I get more traffic? They'll check my out web site and come back with specific ways to raise SEO and stuff to add or change around. I love the personalized service

wagershare model has its place. Pesonally I feel video poker pages are the place. any game you can spend hours playing with not a lot of change in bank roll . ...... is going to do better with wagershare model than say somthing that goes thru money quickly.

just my 2 cents.

getting around that: CR is tops in aff attentions.

Are we all just voting for the one that produces the most cash then?
Or (in one case) the one we work for?


Or are we going to try to look deeper ...

Then it's BET365 for me ...

Why?
Sports / Casino / Poker / Games in the one e-wallet.
Multi-lingual site ...
Good snail mail pack sent out to depositing players ...
Great stats updated daily showing clicks, deposits, turnover ..
Plenty of banners to choose from.
Good text content provided too.
Quick to pay ...


Ok - they don't take american players - but marketting to American's is illegal remember ...

I operate a poker review site, and I find that the best support comes from Poker.com because they offer alot of webmaster tools that you can use to boost your performance not only with Poker.com, but also with any of the other sites you promote. The best money making program though, is Party Poker. You can make up to $200.00 per player in CPA and the player only has to earn 5 Player points (about 20-25 raked hands).

For conversion per visitor, for me right now it's Vegas Affiliates although a few others are coming up.

If I had to pick one group that does sports/casino/poker in one ewallet, I would pick Intertops hands down.

Personally, Bet365 just never did it for me and I felt that there support was a little lacking for the US Affiliates.

I think that Intertops needs improvement in their reporting....(ok a LOT of improvement)...but Roman stands ready to work with us as has always been available to answer questions quickly and efficiently.

I have never felt that I was treated differently because I may not have been producing the big numbers for them for whatever reasons...(I mention this because I have always felt that was one of the problems many affiliates are faced with at some properties.)

This type of question is asked frequently, and each time it is asked there are different answers from different people each time, mostly because different themed sites getting traffic from different places will always show different results. Only thorough testing will give you the best for each individual site.

Asking this kind of question is always good though, because it gives a good indication of starting points to look at and test from.

If you are looking for a great product with way above average support then look no further...Betfred

Obviously I am biassed but if I did not believe in the product I would not be here right now.

Our casino is becoming more and more popular each month and attracting high rollers. We have great support on both sides of the fence, customer 24/7 support and equally important on the affiliate side. I am sure there will be people to back me up on this but both myself and Sam are here and more than willing to help you guys and gals out.

Betfred is certainly a good site Martyn.


Very good on affiliate suport and interesting promos ...

But there are a few things about intergrated reporting that could stand a revisit - and the customer retention numbers are still only average - we can't seem to get that linear growth there ?

You are definitely in my top 5 UK Programs though !!

I would have to say CasinoProfitShare and Inetbet.

Both of these have awesome affiliate and casino support and seem to be able to pay affiliates on time.

Even with the present U.S problems so many casinos/affiliates seem to have with getting affiliate payments out period much less on time. CPS and Inetbet have not been late/extremely late yet.

Jon at CPS is awesome and very friendly and always answers mail and is willing and able to resolve any problem at any time.

I can't say enough about the affiliate managers or Casino support teams they're just awesome.

Thanks Gooner, we are currently in the process of sorting out a new affiliate program which offers all our products in one place. Reporting and everything else will be nothing less than friken awesome!

I am going to try and coin a new phrase cos i hate the "one wallet" term!

If you have any suggestions I may go with it?
