Within ~ 3 years my sites (not one) was exist in Google top in Argentina, Chile, Mexico e.t.c. In Argentina -in top-3. Some days i had ~ 1,000 visitors from this countries.

Results is extremly poor. Only several FDP per year. Are lot of sign-ups, but no RMP. As i know, the big problem is payment methods.

Second - affiliate managers qualification. Many brands accept traffic from this countries, but within 5 years i know only one affiliate manager who explain me that LATAM have problems with payment methods. All other used phrases like "Players from {random LATAM country} convert very well in our brands".

Some conversion i have in Casino Caliente MX, licensed regulated Mexican brand. Not very good, small deposits, but little be better than another brands. But i close affiliate account after blackmail. Casino Caliente have affiliate program - the same as EuroPartners (Playtech). They tryed to apply they dirty Israel tricks for me. Tryed to hold my payments in EP and ask more players. As a results Israel buisness mentality turned win/win partnership to lose/lose partnership. But sorry, this is another story...

So as results i don't know brands who make convert LATAM players well. With one exception - Miljugadas. This was local Argentinian brand, that have very good ratio on Argentinian traffic. If i understand right


But i worked with Miljugadas only two or three month. Federal Prosecuter office in Buenos Aires close this brand and site. Owners under investigation.


Now i see more brands that declare to targeting on Latam: Betway Latam, BP Latam, 1xbet and its whitelabels...But now i preffer to targeting on another countries and now have little amount on Latam traffic.

About this Poll. I understand that you missed some small Latam countries. But why you don't include Brazil - the biggest country in Latam? With 205M population?

Thank you very much for your comments Moolight Cat. I can see an increase number of operators and affiliates wanting to target Latam and I was wondering if they have been able to overcome issues like payments.

One affiliate mentioned to me at the LAC that Casino Caliente was the only one that converted for him. I appreciate you sharing your experience, this may help other affiliates.

I was mostly interested on those specific countries, but I added "Other, please specify", so please you are welcome to use that option too and share your experiences on those countries.

Thanks again!

Yes, but keep in your mind, that Casino Caliente is accept only players from Mexico. And as i say before Miljugadas, had good ratio for Argentinian players. But now they are under federal investigation.

You can use the iGamingDirectory.com website to see the top affiliate programs based on the traffic the online gaming sites they represent receive.

In Latin America, bet365 Affiliates is number one. Number two is the NetHive Affiliate Program, driven by the fact that they represent caliente.mx.

I edited the poll to add Brazil as an additional country. I think it makes particular sense to include it, especially since In know back in February 2017 edition of the GPWA Times Magazine we identified it as one of three emerging markets in Latin America. The other two countries identified as emerging markets were Mexico and Columbia, both of which were already included in the poll. You can see the GPWA Times Magazine article here for more background information on why these specific countries were singled out: Emerging Markets in iGaming.

Morning Oren,

I was sure you would be targeting Latam since your site is multilingual. Please do share with us any interesting developments you read about the regulations.

Have a great week!
