Promoting them leaves you open to: * Negative Carryover retroactively applied to 3 commissions months and forward * Players untagged when deposit is not immediate * Future casino closures with no tag forward to the next casino they open That's just the beginning.
Guard Dog's Reflections on the Impact for Affiliates: If you are promoting Unibet properties, please stop. Read the terms fully - these changes are only to help Unibet, not their marketing partners.

Unibet may also, in such circumstances, and without prejudice to any other rights it has, alter the commission structure whereby any monthly commission will be calculated with reference to the Net Revenue earned over the previous month(s) i.e. negative Net Revenue in one month will be carried over to the next month and then used to calculate the Net Revenue for that month; if the Net Revenue for that month is also negative, both sets of negative NET Revenues will be carried over again to the following month. In such a case, Unibet will notify the Affiliate of the proposed change in the payment of the commission, whereupon, the Affiliate will have 7 days within which to cancel the Agreement. If the Affiliate has not cancelled the Agreement within this period, it shall be deemed to have accepted the revised payment structure. Furthermore should any fines be incurred due to the Affiliates lack of compliance with subsection 4. i) xiii., and without prejudice to any other rights or remedies available to Unibet, choose to pass any such fine onto the Affiliate either by deducting from future commissions until the debt is settled or bill the affiliate for each breach they had incurred. k) As an alternative to the options available to Unibet which are set out in clause 4 (j) of this above, Unibet may, as a result of the Affiliates actions indicative of a breach of this agreement, elect to suspend any payment due to the Affiliate while it investigates any suspected breach. If it chooses to suspend the account for this reason, it shall notify the Affiliate at the earliest opportunity, informing it that doubtful betting patterns have been detected and that the account has been suspended as a result. If the Affiliate wishes to terminate its account in such circumstances, it may do so at any time during the suspension period. Unibet shall investigate the suspected breach, and shall inform the Affiliate of the result of its investigation no later than beginning of the second once-monthly affiliate payment days. If Unibet finds sufficient evidence to suggest a breach of the agreement, it shall terminate the Agreement forthwith, and the Affiliate shall not be entitled to any monies currently owing to it as a result of the breach. If Unibet concludes that no breach of the Agreement has occurred with respect to the activity of the Affiliate or its customers, it shall pay the Affiliate all monies owed to it and shall calculate an amount of Net Revenue for the period of suspension based on a average of the Net Revenue generated by the Affiliate in the preceding 3 months (or if the Affiliate has not been registered for 3 months, for the number of months that it has been registered for). If the suspension takes place within the first month, the amount that has been generated up to the date of suspension will be extrapolated, to provide a figure payable to the Affiliate for the period of suspension of its account.
