Poker Room .com ?

I am going to wait til they start paying for our players when they play casino games. Then I will promote them.

send your players to partypoker or empirepoker

excerpt from terms and conditions for pokerroom.com:

5.5. The Referral Percentage will be paid out for a maximum of 3 years for each player. This is calculated from the players first deposit date.

the 3 year rule is bullocks and you know it.

I have talked with every single poker room online and from my involvement in online casino promotion a player who has been with me for 3 years or more happens more often than you should think.. sure they might try other places but more than often I see my players come back to the place they started out.

and to rob this from me is just crazy… im making you enough money already. Both party and empire can make it profitable so should your company.

Quote:
terminate your payments for referred customers within 60 days, if you have not met their requirements.

Well I get a flat fee + 25% and so does a few others i know but never have I heard about people getting “fired” other than if they abused the payment structure.

Then again why listen to me… thanks god the other poker rooms seem to be able to understand the affiliate game and the worth of our work!

This is a biz and we are here to both make you money but also earn our own paycheck and your affiliate structure as it is now is quite frankly a big insult/slap in the faces of superaffiliates…

but good luck non the less!

Hi,

I’ve promoted PR for some time now. I’ve put up with the obvious bs about not getting paid for the casino games; and it has hurt PR’s positioning considerably on my sites. I would’nt even list it all if not for the fact that it is a no-download poker room.

because of that fact; only only because of it; I will continue to keep PR listed; but if you ever want a shot at premium ad placement on any of my sites will need to

1. give me credit for the life of the player, not 3 years. that is a deal breaker and its not further negotiable. There are just too many places that WILL happily offer that deal; and that’s a true partnership.

2. of course, give me a % of losses on casino games played by players I sent. Do that; and you will actually start to get traffic interested in playing your higher house edge games. I’d be a complete moron to ever consider listing you on any pages with traffic looking to play casino games with no further explanation necessary as to why.

Other than that I think PR has been okay. They pay on time, i’ve received no complaints from players about the place (which is also ultra-important in my book).

So you guys ever decide to do the right thing, and you might be, no I think I can say you WILL be pleasantly surprised as to how taking the high road pays off in the long run.

thanks for listening

The 3 year limit is a deal breaker.

Everyone else offers the player for life, why would I accept a deal where all my work is useless after three years?

That is a no go.

Can we get assurance of life-time partnership with the affiliate?

Yes sir you can.

I assure you that every player I send will be our partnership for life.

What more do you want?

I can send that same player to a dozen other places that will jump on my offer, why should i settle for 3 years?

we all know poker players have very long lasting relationships when they find a site they like; so come on, a person would have to be a complete moron to choose to send a player to a site that is only willing to pay you for what may be only 20% of the time the player stays there; less even.

No, the 3 year thing will be what keeps PR from competing with the bigger sites like Party poker that offer the standard lifetime deal.

This is a no-brainer. Please do not insult our intelligence by rationalizing-away the point.

as for whether we will be your partner for life or not;

aside from the fact that hey: I have 100 depositing players, would you like them to be signed up and playing at PR? If you would like this to happen, please agree to splitting the rake with me for the lifetime of the player’s accounts; and further more I will take only 30% of the rake, not half:

to which you either agree or disagree. If you agree, I send the players. If not; I send them somewhere else that is willing to agree to the standard:

to which any smart operator is going to jump on.

but setting that aside for a second; (meaning that future signups are just that; future; we have made no agreements past that last group of players I sent you)

but keep in mind that there is no logical, intelligent reason for an affiliate to drop a program unless they are caught cheating, try to change the rules midstream without my agreeing to it, or somehow mistreat the players I send them; or for not producing.

Hey if you guys aren’t turning my traffic into players, then what good am I to you anyway? And vice-versa. So that part of things will take care of itself.

There is just no reason to ever consider dropping a sponsor who pays on time, and converts within an acceptable ratio, unless they try to crap on us somehow. And there’s plenty of that out there so all the more reason to be loyal to the places that are loyal (meaning fair) to us.

so if that’s all that was holding up this parade, then get the terms changed and lets see if you don’t suddenly get an increase of traffic from doing nothing more than the right thing.

Its not often you get the chance to do the right thing…. AND make more money.
