Joeldysmith Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Hi, I wonder how can a casino offering their profit share in huge amount (more than25-35%)? I think our senior here can give me a great answer. I think the best options for the fair casino is to give a share depend on their house edge or giving a lower profit share (should be below house edge ). Am I right?

The revenue share given to casino affiliates is based on the generated profits on a monthly basis. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeldysmith Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Yes. I understand that they count them base on monthly basis. For ex: XCasino is offering 60% casino profit on their monthly revenue with most of casino games have a house edge below 5 percent. If this casino has 2 major affiliates, 1 affiliate has manage to generate 200,000.00 usd while the another affiliate generate -190,000.00 usd. So total profit for casino is 10,000.00 usd. This casino will pay their first affiliate with 120,000.00 usd while their profit is only 10,000.00 usd. This is a lost for them, right? And in the long term if they share more than 50% of their profit, they will lose their all money to affiliate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Casinos track down the revenue generated by the players coming from particular affiliate. If let's say casino X got 100 players during the month from affiliate Y, Y receive let's say 30% revenue share and those 100 players generated 10000 net profit during the month, then Y will get from X exactly 30% of 10000 = 3000. Simple as that. cocopop3011 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joeldysmith Posted December 4, 2014 Author Share Posted December 4, 2014 Hi Valdes, Thank you for your reply. No, i think it's not that simple. Let us say there is two major affiliate group. One group is generating profit for the casino, while the others give a negative profit to casino (total casino profit is 1000 ). The first group give 2000 profits and the second group -1000 profits. Then the casino didn't pay only 30% x 1000 = 300 But rather pay 30% x 2000 = 600. ( I believe the distribution is not totally random and the casino is fair ).

Th3 Runn3R Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 This topic made my eyes swirll It doesn't make any sense. Your way of thinking (Joeldysmith) how it works doesn't make any sense because if you were right in the end there's no online casinos left. I think you're wrong because there are a lot of online casino that still running since their establishment. For example : microgaming casinos Crazy Vegas etc, this casino is more than 5 year old and still running. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hajnrih Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 A casino is never in minus. The affiliate site gets his revenue from the net profit like Valdes said. If an affiliate site has 0 profit for the casino they get 0 money. Most of casinos don't carry a negative balance for the affiliate sites. So every month is a new beginning for the affiliate site. If a casino has 10 000 net profit from an affiliate site they will payout the commision of 20, 30 50,60 % from the net profit the affiliate site provided to them. So they are always in plus. Net profit is deposits - withdrawals, - no deposit winnings etc. The casino is always in Plus. That's a fact! Luciana 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then the first group will get 30% of the net profit of 2000= 600. And the second one will get a big fat zero and this only providing the fact if the casino affiliate program is not applying something called "negative carryover".

However, you should be in aware that your last statement is correct ONLY if you mean that the casino will be ahead in a long term. Cause I know dozens of cases when a casino was on a loss for a month or two and when I say on a loss I mean down with a quarter of a million.

ValDes Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Yes and affiliate site was rarely on a 0 profit for 2 moths in a year My dear Macedonian friend, let me assure you that the affiliate business is NOT an easy task at all! Especially in the last couple of years when the competition became not just serious, but even ferocious. Let alone the insane big profits which most people just dream about all the time. It takes not just months, but years to create and develop a successful website in terms of casino affiliation and this process requires enormous amount of time, efforts, money and decent people and ideas of course. If you still have some doubts you could try to yourself. We could even help you at the beginning , you are a neighbour after all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luciana Posted December 4, 2014 Share Posted December 4, 2014 Hahahaha rakija in the bottle of Johnnie Walker, what a trick Na zdravje, ziveli, cheers, salut! PS. There's an ocean of affiliates and ocean of online casinos. That's a tough job, everybody want a piece of cake in this industry! And also it's hard to be creative nowadays, when sooo many things already exist. I think that for running your casino you need to have a looot of money to pay the winners, good strategy, retention program and management. For your affiliate site, some money, but more time to write, examine, make deals, new ideas.. simply to grow with content, visits, trust etc. That's just my opinion.
