Inactivethey made deposits? if you’re on CPA with them, i’m sure there are other req’s…just checked the FAQ for you and it says:
“What minimum requirements exist for me to receive my CPA Commission?
For CPA commissions only, we have the following minimum requirements: $50 deposit & 250 raked hands at $0.25 and do not include tournament hands”
so maybe that’s why?
i always pick revshare myself…CPA is unfair to both the aff and the casino IMHO

Inactivei understand about the requirements but paradisepoker is denying that my players didnt sign up under me

InactiveOK, you need to drop Paradise right now.
We had an 85 post message recently about their unfairness in stats and over 10 people were complaining.They were recently taken off of CAP because they are owned by Sporting Bet, a company who routinely screws their affiliates over.
Seriously, get them off of your site. It is not worth it to promote them.

InactiveOh, and eventually, you’ll get an email back from them telling you that things are alright, maybe that your players had signed up eariler for an account, and so that the problem is on your end.
Don’t believe them.

InactiveHere is the long thread Kevin mentioned.
Many people here at CAP have had problems with Paradise — read the long thread and you’ll see….
It is true, Paradise was decertified recently because they are owned by Sportingbet.
(Sportingbet has been blacklisted on my site, by the way).One other tip — if you’re looking to replace Paradise with a different poker room, don’t bother with Absolute Poker. I recently had someone deposit $100 there, and I made only $0.34. Yes, that’s right — 34 cents from a $100 deposit. You can probably do better elsewhere.

Inactivefukin stephen, i want beat his ass right now. i am heated. I found out that more than 2 players signed up under me!!! Most of you guys probably know that sharkseatfish.com is my first website and coming from a person who doesnt know much about HTML. This project took so much effort and time (and it’s not even done) and I finally sign up a cople of players…..now THIS! I have signed up total of 4 players! (official number) and I get nothing! Not even an acknowledgement! Stephen emailed me back a couple of times saying that he will have a talk with the IT. Now he no longer emails me back. I’m going to tell my clients to cash out tomorrow! paradisepoker could burn in hell!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

InactiveI for one haven’t had any problems with Paradise. Have a couple of players there and make consistent monthly revenue from them. They always pay without issue too. For the record, I am on revenue share, not CPA, so maybe that is the issue as Fuze was suggesting.

InactiveI know i have players signed up under me but my statistics shows no players at all. They promised $50 free chips to new players and a lot of us have got mails that tell us that we will be credited in x hours.. No one has got any chip at all. The banners i used contained the name “bluff”
There is to many things that tells you to something is wrong!

vladcizsolMemberParadise is definately headed into the abyss. Cut your losses and promote another poker room with a better track record regarding affiliates.

Ummmm with all due respect if I were an affiliate manager and you posted things like this on public message board I would not email you back either. I can understand your frusteration with Paradise and there is nothing wrong with that or deciding not to promote them anymore, but how about a little professionalism.
Do you think Bill Gates responded to the fellas of google last week when MSN.com’s PR dropped to a 2 with how he fukin hates them and wants to beat their asses.
I’m not sure if your new to the industry but with all due respect 2 players is a small sample size and is no reason to get bent out of shape even if somehow they didn’t get tracked. Drop Paradise and move on, there are plenty of rooms to promote.
Language like you used at the beginning of your last post is immature and unproffesional in a business environment. Not many people are going to want to do business with you if posting stuff like that on a public message board is your idea of conflict resolution. Just my 2 cents.

BUT – 2 missing players are two missing players. There should NEVER be missing players, because if you find two of them missing, who knows how many are missing in everyone else’s accounts?
So, while that post could have been a little more professional, the content stands, and all these other affiliates agreeing that there is a problem – I would assume there is a problem.

InactiveI’m fairly new to the poker side of things and have been promoting paradise fairly heavily with their $million freeroll. The last couple of months i’ve had one sign up on rev share from about 50-80 downloads a month. They deposited $1000 and appear to have played only once, to me someone who deposits that much isn’t just a casual player and would have thought they would play a bit more!
Having read this thread and the long one i’ll be dropping Paradise first thing on monday morning.

InactiveWell I am going to have to defend Paradise Poker. I have talked with stephen many times and he always answers my questions and helps me out. But I do think their tracking is not very good. It is tough not being able to see how many people actually opened an account….I can only see downloads and new deposits..

InactiveHave you ever considered you good relationship with paradise jokesters. Some good affiliates don’t have such relationships. I agree with most Paradise Poker is burnning and I always have proof for dishonest affiliates. the greeker39
P.S I admit I am small player in all of this but I am dropping Paradise asap.

InactiveI will give Stephen credit, but not Paradise.
Stephen would do well to find a better poker room to work for. Think about it Stephen – think about who you work for and their track record. Do you really think they will do right by you in the long run?
Either a business is honest and values it’s partners and keeps it’s contracts, or it isn’t. Your employers are not. Sportingbet is guilty of criminal conduct, breach of contract to be precise. They have defrauded hundreds of affiliates.
They have done so using a minimum of 3 properties. Do you really think they will do right by Paradise because Stephen is a nice guy?
Already they are embarassing you with faulty tracking, having to explain and evade over and over… I haven’t forgotten our conversation in Vegas, Stephen, even though it was cut short and I never got to touch on some of the issues, you did tell me some interesting things.
Sorry, I cannot back Paradise, and neither should you. It’s not even like Sportingbet can’t afford to set things right, they just don’t want to.
Anyone who knowingly, after reading all the information here on this message board, becomes an affiliate of sportingbet – well, I don’t know how else to help you.
