 Posted: Thu Feb 20, 2003 11:46 pm - Revenue-share affiliate deals |
| _____________________________________________________________ |
There is a conflict of interest in the way casinos are currently promoted by most casino portal owners. The obvious one is that a portal owner will make more money from rigged casinos in revenue-share affiliate deals. If the casino being promoted is later found to be rigged, the affiliate is in a very difficult position because many players would have been robbed and the affiliate would have profited from players' losses. I think the legality is a bit questionable for U.S. affiliates too from what I read some time ago.
I'm trying out one of these affiliate deals at the moment which currently deals with some well established casinos (which you can see on the main page) but it's not likely that I'll be continuing with these sort of deals. The casinos are currently being generous with sign-up bonuses so I expect my account to be negative, anyway!
I know you can argue that the portal owner would lose trust if they promoted bad casinos, but it's not possible to know 100% that a casino is fair. Many websites such as MSN and YAHOO have these sort of casino affiliate adverts but don't you think the revenue-share affiliate should be jointly liable if the casino turns out to cheat players? |

The big firms like msn could'nt give a toss if a punter gets screwed. It's all about the advertising money and the way a big firm like msn will explain it to you along the lines of the casino won't be advertising for long if they re practising bad customer service let alone blindly ripping people off.
They have a point. |

Although that does'nt seem to ring true for certain portal owners.

| Well I've been trying to sort out something with the affiliate people. They said they read my emails but were trying to figure out how to do things before they replied. |
