Poker Stars - Affiliate Question

CoolDog · #1 11-12-2006, 02:00 PM

Hi all, can someone tell me if PokerStars allows one affiliate ID for multiple sites?

I tried emailing PS and no reply yet.

Thanks,

CoolDog

Yes, been doing it for years.

Thanks.

You said you have been doing that for years; I thought their affiliate program was fairly new?

No they have had it for awhile...just have never changed it. Which is much needed.

Put Jeremy on it, 150 CPA baby!

Trust me we are trying to negotiate a deal with them. In fact we were there for a few days and then it got shot down (as they all do) from the bosses above.

Lord knows their player value is high enough to offer attractive CPA's. We are still negotiating though.

There should be changes there in a few weeks, but CPA deals for a wide number of people under one umbrella like this are not very attractive to a cardroom. If I was a cardroom I'd not be excited about a situation where 9 out of ten (or any percentage) of the group were legit but 1 out of ten could be sending fraud players or spamming of some kind. This would impact the pricing of the whole deal, and also tends to drive the affiliates with better quality players out of the deal because the fraud/spammers are bringing down their value. If you can make a deal that everybody likes that's nice but the added complexity may be a headache some cardrooms will be happier to avoid.
