US Affiliates

I am from the US and thinking about launching a casino affiliate website with a partner in Europe.

Any other restrictions or disadvantages of making it a US based website, besides not being able to become a Neteller affiliate?

Depends on what state you run your business from.

There are several states that have laws that cause affs problems in getting paid.
Washington State in particular has harsh laws, along with New York and Delaware.

You want to make sure that whatever programs you decide to go with, that they will be able to PAY YOU.
There are many many programs that can't or won't pay affs that have anything to do with the States... no matter what.

You know anything about Florida, as I am not exactly sure where I should be checking to make sure there is no state law against receiving affiliate payments.

After some more research I did notice that most Microgaming casinos are not available for US affiliates. Not sure about Playtech yet, but imagine it is a similar situation.

@lots0 is 100% correct. Research your state and double check with each company to make sure they pay out to your state. BetOnline and Affractive are on this forum and are reputable companies.
