ASUSA (Brightshare) Closing

[arkyt]

So what becomes of all the thousands of accounts that are and will be marked "inactive" ... if/when MGS reenters USA market - will all those accounts be lost?

If they do not plan to maintain a database that will keep us in the picture - I would imagine they will be marketing to all of our players pushing them to another casino which will accept their play. One word - ROGUE

Dear Brian,

We regret to inform you that due to processing changes, All Slots USA and its affiliate program are closing their doors.

Rest assured, you will be paid for any revshare you've earned since the last payment cycle up to today, April 20th. Please make sure your payment information is updated during the next 30 days, in order to receive your funds. We can currently pay you through the following methods: Bank Wire & QuickTender (UseMyWallet).

It has been a pleasure working with you, and we wish you all the best in your future endeavors. If you have any specific questions, please email us at affiliates@allslotsusa.com

Best regards,

Hmmmm does that mean they are going to delay March payments another 30 days too? Its the 20th still havent gotten paid for March. How the hell would these people get by doing work and then when its time to get paid they are told sorry - no checks this week.

Hi everyone, <O</O
<O</O
At this point we don’t see any potential to re-open All Slots USA. However, should All Slots USA be able to re-open its doors in the future and continue to serve the US market, all players will be tracked to their original banner tag.


Regarding March earnings, payment is in procedure, all affiliates had contacted Janet in the past and did update their payment method will be paid accordingly.
<O</O
Thanks,
Janet<O</O

At this point we don’t see any potential to re-open All Slots USA.

I wouldn't have expected that - more likely I would expect All Slots to load for all those players if/when they came back - so the questions is will all USA players at ASUSA be re-mapped over to All Slots?

[universal4]

Will we be paid according to the stats that show in affiliates.allslotsusa.com or according to the stats that show in Additional Earnings Report contained within the Brightshare stats.

I have a player that generated activity at AllSlotsUSA that did not show at Brightshare but does show in my stats at AllSlotsUSA.

I was under the impression that all revenue should have shown in the Brightshare backend.

As an affiliate of Brightshare for many many years, I have never been given a link to nor access info for the All Slots USA stats site. All along I thought stats were being tracked through Brightshare. I sent support at allsotsusa for info on how I can access to see if there is anything there.

I hope that someone will receive my email there and let me know what to do.

I knew that microgaming was going to wuss out of the US as always... LOL!!!

When Jackpot Factory / Brightshare created the spin-off ASUSA they put out forum post asking affiliates to submit payment details ... I honestly think they did that hoping that many would not supply the info - I say that because Brightshre and ASUSA were/are one in the same - they already had all that info - there was no real need for anyone to have to supply it to them ..... and here they are again asking for affiliates to send them payment details.

Brightshare = ASUSA ...

I really hope that they maintain all a connection from affiliate to all USA affiliate referred players - if they reenter the market one day and market to players I referred I'm going to be more than a bit upset - I'll be making the evening news somewhere!

[arkyt]

Where is the GPWA ?

Is this practice acceptable to the GPWA?

[theGman]

Incredible - absolutely incredible is all i can say . 10 years of work passed onto other people in a hearbeat - What do Brightshare have to say re this is more intriguing. It also does not say a lot for the Ecogra certification of Affiliate programs but i guess we knew that already .

Things are very silent at Fortune Affiliates re this issue as well. In addition if you are wanting a response from this fictional Janet Edwards person , you are going to be waiting for days - she or it seems to take at least a week to get back to the most trivial of questions

[kwblue]

Arkyt -

It is a holiday weekend, but am confident that Brightshare will respond to the email sent to them about All Slots USA. We are all a bit upset over this issue (especially forwarding all of our hard-earned marketing to another company so that they can profit from it). They are a Platinum Sponsor at AGD and this is not tolerated for our sponsors as you know. I'm sure Michael feels the same way and will respond after the holidays.

I'll try to keep this thread current with any information I find out from them.

I had no idea there was a spin off of Brightshare for All Slots. I wasn't reading forums regularly for quite a while.

...How can I access the stats there?

It is unfucking believable how shoddy communications are between aff programs and affiliates. LoL I've sent them a steady flow of traffic all this time and made zero ZERO since the UIGEA - my fault for being on hiatus, but still...........
Time to take Brightshare casinos off due to lack of performance.

I'm still listening to anybody who can tell me what programs perform the best for North American websites.

[techwoman]

Fergie-

They think posting is all they need to do to communicate. I don't frequent the forums and I am sure that many others don't have the time to live in them either. There is no excuse to not email affiliates on EVERY change all the time. Or they were just hoping that not all would see it. I stupidly assumed that the they were tracking that in Brightshare.

I emailed them and also hope that they read this forum. I tried my login for brightshare and that didn't work. This is the page I went to and tried
http://affiliates.allslotsusa.com/

The forgot password only takes you to a form email.

[Fergie]

Yup. I went to that url and tried my brightshare login, then tried the forgot password link.
Not designed to easy for us, is it?

[techwoman]

Did you write to them on the form email? I have no idea if they will answer them, I submitted mine a few days ago and no word. I do realize this is a Holiday Weekend, but they sure found the time to send the players out the email with the Jackpot Capital link!! I got one as a player!!

[Fergie]

I don't expect to hear anything till next week, cuz of the holidays. I sent in the form, but didn't write anything on it. lol
I thought it was a standard thing and i would have my info emailed to me.

Brightshare = ASUSA ...

Hi,


Please note that BrightShare and All Slots USA Affiliate Program are two separate entities, I would like to remind you all that for the benefit of our affiliates, we worked out a rev-share agreement with them when they opened and they have continued to pay our affiliates accordingly.

We have made several attempts to contact Janet from AS USA Affiliate Program, but I suspect we will only hear from her after the holiday weekend. I ask everyone to please be patient and I am sure we will all get satisfactory responses.

Thanks,
Liyu

[arkyt]

Please note that BrightShare and All Slots USA Affiliate Program are two separate entities,

ASUSA and Brightshare are BOTH under the Spiral Solutions umbrella and I've got a laundry list of loose ends that tie together quite well!

I ask everyone to please be patient and I am sure we will all get satisfactory responses.

There will be no satisfactory response to ASUSA sending players invitations to join Jackpot Capital without any credit to affiliates! That is 100% unacceptable!

[theGman]

Please note that BrightShare and All Slots USA Affiliate Program are two separate entities

Hi Liyu

Yes they are two seperate entities owned by the same people - or the people who own Brightshare have direct influence as to what happens.

Please dont insult our intelligence. There have been some very strange goings on at Brightshare in recent times and one must now start speculating as to why Lloyd left when he did. I regard this as being on a par with the Grand Prive tactic . It is blatant outright theft.

[GCG]

Here is an email asking referred US players to sign up at JC.

The affiliate code is fairly new and the same found in 2 emails, it seems affiliates will lose out again.

Thanks Brighshare for not informing affiliates and probably going around us again, you are showing a lot of credibility lately...........
