PAW Sub-Affiliate Program

Jeremy · #1 07-16-2007, 02:02 AM

As many of you know (or may not know) the PAW Network has been growing at an explosive pace. Amazingly with all the emerging markets outside of the U.S., many of our new affiliates are from Europe and various other countries.

With that said, we are going to be launching a sub-affiliate program that will allow many of our affiliates promoting in these emerging markets to bring in others within your market. I am also thinking of launching a few different forums that are specific for the various countries, such as Germany, Dutch, etc. for those affiliates that don't speak fluent English. Likewise it will give affiliates the opportunity to discuss issues in their native languages that directly affects their countries.

We are looking to bring in a few affiliates from these emerging markets to lead the push and capture these new affiliates. These affiliates will be the moderators of the new forums and can essentially be "the man" for affiliates in that country. And as you can imagine, these affiliates will be put on nice sub-affiliate revenue plans.

If you are an affiliate and fluent in another language within an emerging market, this is a golden opportunity to make a lot of money through our sub-affiliate program.

Back in the old days, I was able to send so many new U.S. affiliates to rooms like PartyPoker, it was ridiculous. But really that is because poker affiliate marketing was just blowing up in the U.S. at the time, the good news however is that our industry is doing just this in the other markets right now.....as is poker in general.

I don't have all the details worked out yet, but the coding is almost done for it. Please PM me if this is something you would be interested in.

And for U.S. affiliates, the sub-affiliate scheme can be lucrative to you as well. My personal business model for the last few years has always been 50% sub-affiliate revenue versus straight affiliate revenue. Trust me, it's a fun and easy way to make some nice $$.

Again, just PM me if you are interested in partnering with us on this. Likewise we can set you up with your own language page here at PAW to send your traffic to.

This sounds really exciting! Any idea when this will go live?

So far the response to the upcoming launch of our sub-affiliate system has been great. I just wanted to update you guys, and gals waiting on the hard launch of this.

Our development team is working feverishly on this system and has it as their #1 priority.

Hopefully I should have more comprehensive update for you towards the end of the week. Thanks for your interest. If anyone has any specific questions or wants to get on the list for their specific country, please shoot me a PM.

Likewise, any suggesstions or ideas for the sub-affiliate system, just post them here or contact me directly.

Are you planning on using the url (like partypoker) or the manual/email (like fulltilt) method for sub sign ups?

Jeremy · #5 08-06-2007, 04:37 PM

We are planning on having both a unique URL and a referral code for each affiliate.

The beauty of this system also is that we control 100% of it. So let's say you recruit a new affiliate and for some reason it doesn't track to you. We can easily just go in and attach the affiliate to you. Unlike when a player doesn't track, we need to get with the rooms affiliate dept. and then see if they tracked to another affiliate. This can be a pain.

I imagine the tracking URL's is the best way to do it however. And then there will be a field for all new sign-ups that asks if they have a referrer code.

If we recruit an affiliate to the PAW network, are we recruiting them to the entire network or just a certain room? Seems to me it wouldn't be worth it as much if it was just one room, because if they sign up here and then decide to promote 2 other rooms on the network, you're just handing free affiliates to PAW...

Lookin forward to hearing your ideas...

lipaonline · #8 08-18-2007, 07:43 AM

i think (but i'm not Jeremy

, this affiliate is just for one room (with your tracking code), each room have a unique tracking code, room does'nt know who you are...
And you can use PAW for all rooms except one if you want...

but if you're thinking about sub-affiliate, of course it's for all network.. why it will be else ??

... we'll se what will the sub-program be...

Yea I apologize on the delays getting the sub-affiliate program launched. The programmers are working on it, however I want it to be perfect before rolling it out.

The good news is that it is NOT just for one room. If you send us a new affiliate, you will get a % of every dollar that affiliate makes, regardless of what rooms they are promoting on our network.

Essentially you will have a specific url to our program as well as a refferal code. Also since we run 100% of this program, it will not be hard to manually add an affiliate to your account if for some reason they didn't enter you as a refferer or didn't use your url.

Most importantly though you will get paid a % based on all the rooms your sub promotes, not just one or too. The sub-affiliate tracking will be from PAW, not any specific rooms.
