2. Affiliation Guidelines

1. Only approved and properly tagged creative materials, supplied by us from time to time, may be used to promote the merchant. Advertorials and personal endorsements are allowed but all materials not designed by the merchants needs to be approved in writing; such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.

2. You may not modify any banners or other creative material supplied by us without the written prior consent of WagerProfits.

3. By agreeing to participate in the affiliate program, you are agreeing to download banners, text or promotional material and place it on your site, utilize it within e-mail, direct marketing using your affiliate URL or print. These methods are by which you may advertise on the merchants ? behalf.

4. Banners and links may not be placed within unsolicited e-mail, unauthorized newsgroup postings, or chat rooms or through the use of "bots". Traffic generated illegally will not be counted.

5. We will terminate this agreement immediately if there is any form of spamming or if you discredit the merchants or WagerProfits through false advertising, written or uttered words.

6. You shall not make any claims, representations, or warranties in connection with us or the merchants and you shall have no authority to and shall not bind us or the merchants to any obligations

7. Without our prior written approval, you will only use our approved banners and links and will not alter their appearance nor refer to us in any promotional materials. The appearance and syntax of the hypertext transfer links are designed and designated by us and constitute the only authorized and permitted representation of our merchants sites.

8. You will not knowingly benefit from known or suspected traffic not generated in good faith whether or not it actually causes WagerProfits or the Merchants damage. Should fraudulent activity arise through a person directed to a site via your link, we retain the right to retract the commissions paid to you at any time. Our decision in this regard will be final and no correspondence will be entered into. We reserve the right to retain all amounts due to you under this Agreement if we have reasonable cause to believe that such traffic has been caused with your knowledge. Even if you have not knowingly generated such traffic, we reserve the right to withhold referral fees with respect to such.

9. Affiliate must not alter form fields or scripts in WagerProfits supplied marketing materials which are designed to collect contact information from players, in an attempt to hijack such information for affiliate or advertiser's own use.

10. Affiliates are prohibited from playing at any of the casino websites promoted by WagerProfits through their own affiliate link or from the affiliate link of an associate who shares all or part of the commission with the affiliate. This shall include any individuals or playing groups from which an Affiliate receives compensation or remuneration from of any kind. In the event of violation of this section, WagerProfits and the respective website that has been played with shall have the right to void all play and eliminate any earned commissions applicable from such play and eliminate the Affiliate from our Affiliate program and void any future play at the casino websites.

3. Purchase Processing

1. You are only responsible for directing customers to the casino site.

2. Only properly tagged customers can be assigned to an affiliate. Should an affiliate tag be improperly inserted into the affiliate site or not properly received by the casino server the resulting customer registration and purchases will not be assigned to the affiliate. Therefore it is the responsibility of the affiliate to ensure that all links are properly tagged.

4. Revenue Sharing & Payment

1. WagerProfits, as agent for the Merchants, will pay out a revenue share on the Commissionable earnings generated by each customer, as defined by the merchant.

2. Commissionable earnings are calculated as the merchant ? s profit, less charge-backs, complimentary money, free money offers and other incentives offered to the customer.

1. Charge-back: A credit card holder discovers irregular transactions made on his/her Credit/Debit Card, which were not authorized by him/her. The credit card holder then requests his/her bank to reverse these charges. Charge backs relate to fraudulent use by a third party of the credit card holder's card or card number.

2. Should the player process a charge back, the disputed or charged-back revenue generated by yourself will be forfeited and therefore deducted from the total balance due to you for the current month.

3. Should this deduction of the accumulated revenue exceed your current amount due, your balance will then revert to a negative balance, and you will have to earn revenue to cover the charge-back before you can start earning revenue again.

4. Unlike with a player making a big winning, which only lasts one month, a charge back will stay due till the revenue generated by your other players has covered the amount due.

5. We understand that this might be frustrating to the Affiliates, but it has to be made clear that the casino can only pay out a percentage of their profits, not fraudulent revenue.

6. Complimentary Money, Free Money and other incentives refer to those amounts credited to the account of customers. As they have not purchased these amounts we cannot pay commissions on these amounts.

3. Commissionable earnings will be subject to commissions as calculated using the tiered commission tables in force from time to time.

4. Negative earnings are NOT carried forward and the affiliate will begin each month on a zero balance. Should the affiliate close the month with a positive balance, commissions will be paid on the positive balance. Should the affiliate close the month with a negative balance, this balance will NOT be carried forward to the next month, unless the negative balance is a result of a charge-back.

5. Commissionable earnings will be earned for the life of the customer, on all transactions the customer undertakes at the merchant, for as long as the affiliate remains a member of this affiliate program.

6. Payments are made 5 business days after the close of the preceding month. Payments are effected by Neteller, PrePaid ATM, Money Transfer, Check, and into affiliate ? s casino account. It is the responsibility of the affiliate to select the method of payment. Unless otherwise stipulated all payment swill be made by Check.

5. CPA Terms

If you are promoting WagerProfit casinos on a Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) basis, the following terms apply:

1. WagerProfits, as agent for the Merchants, will pay out an individually agreed upon CPA amount for acquired customers, as defined by the merchant.

2. Acquired customers are detemined as depositing players who deposit at least 125% of the agreed CPA amount.

a. Charge-back: A credit card holder discovers irregular transactions made on his/her Credit/Debit Card, which were not authorized by him/her. The credit card holder then requests his/her bank to reverse these charges. Charge backs relate to fraudulent use by a third party of the credit card holder's card or card number.

b. Should the player process a charge back, the disputed or charged-back revenue generated by yourself will be forfeited and therefore the CPA amount cannot be paid to affiliate.

c. We understand that this might be frustrating to the Affiliates, but it has to be made clear that the casino can only pay out on non-fraudulent revenue.

d. Complimentary Money, Free Money and other incentives refer to those amounts credited to the account of customers. As they have not purchased these amounts we cannot consider these amounts as deposits.

3. WagerProfits reserves the right to move CPA affiliates into our revenue share program if it is determined that the bulk of their referrals are players who abuse the casino promotions.

6. Policies & Confidentiality

1. The merchants assume ownership of the customer at point of first contact with the visitor. You, as affiliate, act as a referring agent for the merchants. We reserve the right to refuse customers (or to close their accounts) if necessary to comply with any requirements we may periodically establish.

2. By opening an account with a customer, that person or entity will become our Customers and, accordingly, all Client rules, policies, and operating procedures will apply to them.
