How can you NOT expect problems with a Rogue listed affiliate programs. Have you read their terms? Here’s some:
“Unibet may change all or any part of this Agreement at any time(even without prior notice to the contracting party)..”
Therefore they can change your terms whenever they want, however they want, even without telling you.
Here’s another:
“If Unibet determines, in its sole discretion, that the Affiliate has engaged in any of the foregoing activities, or Unibet detects any doubtful betting patterns, suggestive of any unlawful activity, or a breach of any obligation of the Affiliate under this Agreement – including, but not limited to, patterns that suggest that the referred player(s) in question is benefiting from money back or incentives from the Affiliate to compensate for their losses; and/or a consistently low number of referred players is active on the site; and/or 50% or in relation to Sportsbook or live casino, more of the total stakes in any monthly period is being bet on a single outcome by all referred players (such as arbitrage, including arbitrage in a team format where safe bet calculations have been given to players by their Affiliate) -, Unibet shall: have the right to suspend any payment due to the Affiliate while Unibet investigates any suspected breach, and/or have the right to alter the commission structure (notably by carrying negative revenue from a month to another), and/or have the right to withhold payment of any commission due to the Affiliate that has been derived from the purported breach, and/or have the right to retain on the Commission until the debt is settled or invoice the cost incurred by a breach to clause 4.9.13 by the Affiliate, and/or have the right to terminate the contract immediately, and/or pay to the Affiliate all money owed if the investigation made by Unibet leads to conclude that no breach of the Agreement has occurred.“
Here’s what has happened to you. Kinda sucks but this is what their terms are, and it when you go promoting them this is the risk you take.
@Nik0 There are other various terms that kinda screw up your commission, I particularly “love” this one:
New Depositor means a new customer who: has created a new Unibet player account, registering immediately and directly after have been led by his last click/refer from the Affiliate Site or Advertising Space to one of Unibets websites.
This one is also excellect:
“The tracking of a player is to his player account, not to the player himself. As a consequence, if a New Depositor creates a new player account by signing up to: a different brand within the Unibet group, or a new domain due to licensed market regulations, provided that Unibet was not authorised to migrate the players accounts to the new domain, the new player account will not necessarily be linked to the Affiliate.“
This is how new players can go missing etc, you get the idea. So yeah to make the long story short, they have simply enforced their terms on the OP.
