Hi Slotplayer,
I have addressed this discrepancy before (see quote from past post). The difference between the 2 reports you are looking at is due to poor naming conventions on behalf of our reports. The “net profit” in the Traffic summary is more of a “gross profit” number, as it does not take into consideration: bonus amounts, chip drops, or bad debt.
The size of this difference can vary depending on how many bonus hunters are coming in off your account, how many registrations and therefore $5 bonus chips given, how much bonus we decide to give away as special promotions to new or existing customers, etc. We obviously do not pay commissions off of bonuses lost back to the casino.
The “Net profit” in the earnings report, is a true net profit number as it takes all of these things into consideration and adjusts accordingly.
If you still have questions about this let me know and we can discuss.
Cheers,
Nick

Hey Rick,
The Net Profit you are seeing in the Money Report is showing the true Net Profit.
I am working to have the profit shown in the Traffic Summary fixed. While it states that it is “Net Profit” this isn’t the case. It does not take into account: bonus amounts, chip drops, bad debt. What it should be labeled as is either “Gross” or just “Profit”
I hope this explains the discrepancy…. if you have questions let me know.
Cheers,
Nick
