FictionNet:
OK, so the casino manager just got back to us with the following info. I then personally saw the reports, and the following is accurate and resolves your question:
1. First, it appears you may have confused the 25 US dollars and 25 Pounds Sterling likely because you set up 2 different accounts – one at Cirrus Casino (the US version) and one at CirrusUK (the Sterling version). In the US Cirrus you took and played a US$25 free chip, and played it down to 59 cents remaining. This account (Cirrus US) was NOT set up under your affiliate account so whatever you did as a player in this account does NOT show up in your affiliate stats.
In the CirrusUK casino, you ALSO set up an account with the same username (casinobeacon) and took a 25 Pound Sterling free chip, which HAS NOT BEEN PLAYED AT ALL – there is STILL a full 25 Pounds in your play account at that casino. This account WAS set up under your affiliate link, and thus the stats show what they show (see number 2 below for the explanation of this.)
2. The reason your affiliate stats show a negative 7.50 Sterling is as follows: The free 25 Pound chip you took appears to the system as if it was paid OUT of the casino (which it is, since you have not played it at all, and it is still in your playable balance).
So financially the system sees this as 25 Pounds out of the casino, which at a 30% revenue share is EXACTLY minus <7.50> Pounds. Assuming you played the entire 25 Pounds and lost it all, the stats would show a ZERO, as we explained earlier that it should, since the system would see the TWO transactions cancelling each other – the 25 Pounds OUT and then the 25 Pounds back IN. If you want to verify this, go ahead and play the 25 Pounds down to zero in your CirrusUK account and you should see the stats show this back at zero balance for the affiliate.
Hope this all makes sense. Glad to be able to get an answer fast for you.
By the way, as a little token of our respect for your efforts, I will personally credit your affiliate account with an extra $50 on your first payment in recognition of the 25 Pounds you spent on this exercise.
I hope our responses, and our efforts have demonstrated something positive for you, and I hope you will feel comfortable to proceed to make some money together with us…
