Phew – here’s my take on your questions :
Cookies are set for between 30 to 90 days usually. Each group varies.
Each group has their own rules regarding who owns the player – but usually each casino within the group is considered seperate. So if you’re the first person to send the person to THAT specific casino property then you usually get the cookie.
However, some groups don’t like players signing up to multiple properties and call them “bonus whores”. Some groups are OK with it.
Additionally, we’ve seen independant audits proving that several groups “cookie policy” simply does not work well at all – and many players are orphaned during the signup bonus (belong to no affiliate).
Check the threads written by J.Todd and the APCW.
This makes no sense to me – I’ve written several simple websites that use cookies and a login process to authenticate and display content – and I can tell you it’s relatviely easy to introduce a porcess that works 99.9% of the time.
Basically the whole process is deliberately shrouded in mist, seems purposely designed to fail to record cookies … in order to maximise uncertainty and increase the chance of affiliate free players.
:devil:
You should only expect 60%-80% of your players to be recorded under you – and I don’t expect a mass rush by casinos to “fix” a “problem” that works very well financially for them.
