1. I’d like to see affiliate managers that have some authority. Too many casino owners have puppets for managers (not the manager’ fault) and they are basically banner suppliers and payment processors. If we can’t work with the owners we have to work with the managers and sometimes the messages don’t get through clearly. For example, getting stuff like minimum payment amounts changed and spam problem resolved, seem to take forever to happen if at all.
This isn’t a criticism of the affiliate managers, it is a criticism of the control freak owners who think they know affiliate marketing and clearly don’t.
2. I’d like is creatives that don’t mention bonuses. Too many programs have only bonus creatives and for those of us that don’t push them, it’s frustrating.
3. Prompt payment, however, more importantly, payments within the specified time frames. I dont care if it comes on the 15th of the month, just make sure it’s to me by the 15th.
4. More methods of payment. Not just cheque or NETeller. Have some of the other online payment systems as well.
5. A clause in the T&Cs whereby they must notify changes by email and not expect us to read through them to find the changes.
6. No termination based on not enough sign ups. If we send the visitors they must convert, it’s out of our hands and I don’t like my residual income depending on how good they are at converting new players.
These are in no specific order, just me ranting a bit.
