Somebody always takes a hit. The question is who and how painful is it.
So the aff has to attempt to monetize the players that would normally be sent to the casino, pulls the property, and now the casino takes a hit.Both the casino and the aff have now lost one source of income until the player plays it all back. The casino takes the risk that the aff is happy elsewhere and won’t return.
The ideal solution fair to both casino and the affiliate is if none take the hit. But this is a difficult proposition to manage + there is scope for discrepancies. In this case the casino doesn’t carry forward the negative and absorbs the immediate loss in the books. The player is then ring fenced till the loss has been recovered and then start paying the affiliate as usual.
Point to note – the affiliate should also be compensated for his loss of revenue for the month when the player winning would have wiped out his earnings.
Probably MGS casinos have a similar system (Not sure if with the same policies or rules or how automated it is). I doubt if any program has a transparent and automated system like this.
But then the big question will come up if the programs are able to ring fence, would they start shaving?
