Another Record Breaking Month Yet Again at Rewards Affiliates

You guys have done it yet again! You’ve gone and broken the record for the biggest month ever… AGAIN! The success of the program continues to grow with each month becoming even bigger than the last. Affiliates have been working extra hard and it looks like the hard work is paying off in a big way. Congratulations once again for a record breaking month, and cheers to breaking more record months in the future!

New Search Creatives Function now has Pre-Set Searches

As you all know, we are continually updating our members area to make it easier for affiliates to obtain the marketing tools and information they need. That’s why we have taken the new Search Creatives function to the next level… We have added Pre-Set Searches. This means you no longer have to retype keywords that may not retrieve the results you’re looking for. Instead, click the drop down menu and choose from one of the Pre-set Searches that we provide for your convenience. These searches will be regularly updated as new games become available, new promotional banners become available, and seasonal banners come into play.

This function proves to be an asset to the banner farm and I am sure that all affiliates will love to use it.

For the specifics:

If you make a selection from the ‘Pre-Set Searches’ drop down menu, it will override any other options you submit (like keyword and casino).

However, once you select a preset search … then submit … it will automatically fill in the keywords and the casino and show you the results… Now if you want to further refine the search just leave the preset downdown box alone and use the normal form input fields to modify the search.

and finally, if you don’t want to use the pre-set search box … just leave it on the default “Enter your keyword OR select one of thes…” … and it will ignore that field

Your First Hour is on the House Promotion – HUGE SUCCESS AGAIN!

Just like the original Free Spins promotion at Casino Classic, the success of the ‘Your First Hour is on the House’ promotion at Captain Cooks Casino has been tremendous!

We’re heading for another record breaking month and the promotion has just made the record even higher for us to beat next month!

The main rule for this competition (that I previously mistook) is that if the player had participated in the Casino Classic free spins promotions, they must make a deposit at one of our casinos before playing Captain Cooks free spins to be eligible to participate.

Terms and conditions can be found at: http://captaincookscasino.com/freehour-terms.asp

Your linking code will look like this:

Replace affXXXXX with your affiliate id.

A few banners are available here now, with more being available throughout the week.

GOOD LUCK

New Bonus Structure for Players

Most of you already know that we have commenced a new bonus system for the players. All the information we have can be found just below in the email that we have sent out to all players. If you have any questions, feel free to email Ryan or myself.

Hi #FirstName#,

I’ve got some good news for you – there has been a big change at the casino which will mean that it is now a lot easier for you to control your money.

You’re going to love this new system! From now on wagering requirements will only apply to your bonus money and you will be able to withdraw your own money at any time.

Before I go into any further detail about this new system, I want to reassure you that this will be a totally smooth transition for you and will require no effort on your behalf. The only time you will even notice a difference is when you go to withdraw.

Although your cash will appear as before, it will now be held in two separate accounts in the following way:

CASH ACCOUNT + BONUS ACCOUNT = TOTAL BALANCE

Don’t worry – it’s not as complicated as it might seem! Your CASH ACCOUNT will hold all the money you deposit at the casino, your BONUS ACCOUNT will hold all the money we give you for free!

HOW ?

Ok – here are the nuts and bolts:

All free bonus money given to you will be paid into your BONUS ACCOUNT. Ie:

Purchase $200 and receive $50 FREE:

$200 into your + $50 into your = $250
CASH ACCOUNT BONUS ACCOUNT TOTAL BALANCE

When you start playing at the casino, the money you use to place bets will come out of your CASH ACCOUNT. You can still withdraw any amount from this account at any time.*

You can wager your total balance at any time.

As you meet wagering requirements, the money from your BONUS ACCOUNT will move to your CASH ACCOUNT in increments of $10.

Once you have met all wagering requirements on your BONUS ACCOUNT all your money will sit in your CASH ACCOUNT for you to play with or withdraw as you please.

When you view your credits in the bottom left corner of the casino software, this will reflect your TOTAL BALANCE. (CASH ACCOUNT + BONUS ACCOUNT).

*Please note that should you decide to withdraw any money from your CASH ACCOUNT before meeting wagering requirements on your BONUS ACCOUNT, you will lose any and all credits in your BONUS ACCOUNT which will then be set to $0. We suggest you meet wagering requirements before withdrawing your money.

A more detailed account of the new system can be found on terms and conditions. Also go to the FAQ’s for more information.

New Play-4-Free Site

In turn with the other goodies in store for the first part of 2006, as promised, we have developed a site you can promote to your players where they can play for free. The site has links to Golden Tiger Casino which link to your affiliate id.

The linking code will be in the format of:

http://www.play-4-free.com/default.asp?aff_id=affXXXXX

where affXXXXX is your affiliate id. To even further increase your conversions with this fantastic news site,

New Payment Method – Now Available

As Rewards Affiliates continues to grow, we would also like to grow the choices you have to get paid. This is why we have decided to add MoneyBookers to our list of payment methods.

MoneyBookers has no fee and payment is instant. What does this mean for you? No more waiting days for bank transfers or weeks for checks to arrive. You have access to your money as soon as the payment has been processed.

MoneyBookers is now available in your profile! To change your option to MoneyBookers please log into the affiliate site, click Profile > Bank Details, where you will be able to select MoneyBookers from a drop down menu.

Heading for the 3rd Huge Month in a row at Rewards Affiliates!

January and February proved to be the biggest months ever here at Rewards Affiliates, and you guys are continuing to break the records! It looks positive that we will be breaking last month’s record again this month – 3rd month in a row – which means next month the record will be even harder to break. I’m confident that you guys can only keep bringing us up and that we will all continue to break the records for the months to come.

Good luck guys!
