Searching for Gambling Affiliation review, any help ?

Not sure if this company is good to work with.

Thanks

I prefer to work directly with the programs instead of using a third party.

Rick,

Why would that be?

Do they charge a commision or they are just not worth the hassle?

Thanks?

I work with them. Can't go into results, but they are trustworthy, and won't rip you off, if that's what you were wondering.

If Schalk trust them then I trust them..

However I doubt they can offer You more then what You could get directly since they are going to want a cut.

Thanks mate

With these 3rd parties, the program usually pays their cut, so it shouldn't hit the affiliate.

>> Can't go into results

what do you mean ?


Do they offer Rev share as well or just CPA ?

The main concern for me is tracking, reporting, honest and do pay.

[CK - Schalk]

I can only comment on them from an affiliate PROGRAM's point of view.

They do seem to be honest, so I'm sure their reporting is fine (for affiliates), and I don't see you having any problems with payment.

Once again, I don't have any experience with them from an affiliate's side, but I can say that they do seem like a stand-up company from the dealings I have had with them.

What is the benefit of using them as a service though and not directly? If a webmaster has some pull a 3rd party should not be needed and negotiations are pretty common in my neck of the woods.

Schalk, You still owe me a Turkey!

Ok,

As an affiliate, you may prefer the reporting tools / payment methods / affiliate backend they offer above the in house system of the program itself.

It may also be that you like having all your affiliate accounts consolidated into a single account, or just that you prefer a single point of entry for all your accounts. (A benefit of this is that if you earn below the payment threshold for a specific brand, it gets added to your total earnings accross brands and can be paid out.)

It also means you have a single point of contact for all your affy needs, so you don't have to chase 50 different affiliate managers when you need something. You tell one, and he can chase the others

Perhaps you have worked with them before and trust them more than a program / brand that you would like to try out.

If they have good affiliate managers, they could certainly help you optimise your campaigns and thereby increase your earnings. Remember, they can see conversions and earnings data for numerous affiliates, accross numerous brands, so would be able to suggest the best fit for your sites, based on previous results, whereas in house program managers would push a single brand (or group of brands) on you.

If they have many registered affiliate partners, they have some good negotiating power with the brands as well, and can faccilitate some really good deals as well as cool promos. I get what you are saying about single webmasters with pull, but for the programs it would be about volume. You're not using one of these 3rd parties to get to one aff

The only downside is that you are not dealing with the program itself.

Support can take FOREVER, especially if your working in the ridiculous time differences that we are, and they won't be able to give you as many insights and tips into promoting the brand as an in house manager could give you.

And yes, dealing with the program itself does give you a lot more room for negotiation.

I probably wouldn't reccomend it to experienced affiliates, who are comfortable with the clutter of 200 aff accounts, and don't mind negotiating with your managers yourself, but I think it's a handy way for newbies to get a good deal, and get into the swing of things without all the chaos and clutter

Hi just discovered this forum and it seems full of useful info!

RE: Gambling Affiliation

I also came accross them and thought they'd be a good for someone starting out in casino/betting Affilate sites (like myself). I emailed them and they told me they do not take any cut of your % from the cash you earn, which is cool.

What i was wondering is, if you sign up to them and show ads for a few sites , but then decide later on to deal straight with the sites themselves, would you be able to just transfer away from GA, or would you be somehow tied into them for all future payments?

What do you reckon Schalk or anyone else?

[universal4]

You would likely have to rejoin the programs directly and any players you have currently would likely NOT transfer to the direct account.
