Hi all,
As for the deposit amounts being shown: I completely understand why some of you want this … the wager model is big and scary and you all think in terms of revshare. So it makes sense that you want a revshare metric to compare against.
As I’ve said in the past this isn’t something I’m personally against.
That said, the company has made the decision to move to the wager model – no news there – but the underpinnings of that are in fact that the company wants affiliates to focus on bringing people who wager a lot. As a result, the company doesn’t want to display the deposit amounts because people will get caught up when one month’s wagering doesn’t work out to the exact average it should when compared against the deposit amounts. As we’ve all gone over many many times in this forum … it will work out to the 35% over time. It might be all the time, you might have one month this way and the next month the other.
So as long as you focus on bringing players that create a lot of wagering then you will be very successful with the RA program.
I know that isn’t what some of you want to hear. I would also hazard a guess that I’ll get snappy comments from those who don’t yet understand this model – or haven’t given it a chance to even out – as they will be frustrated and feel that it’s all big sham and yet another conspiracy theory.
I know the wager model is a new relatively new concept and we’re all afraid of change/the unknown. However, as you can see, there’s more than just Dom standing up for this model and how it works. Summer is over and numbers across the board are reacting accordingly. Watch the fall and it’s very likely you will see what the others are experiencing.
I’m going back to my vacation. Cheers Guys!
