Whats the most profitable model: wager share or revenue share?
In the long run the revenue share is more profitable. In the short run you may have months where you earn zero.
Actually, as I’m sure many affiliates who are on the new wager model will attest (c’mon guys, back me up here), the Wager Model will earn more money annually for about 98% of affiliates.
You have to fit a very specific profile (which almost nobody satisfies) to earn more on the RevShare model … why the heck do you think we brought it out? The company is large enough to be able to offer a program like this. You don’t see many other programs offering this (yet) because you need to be large enough, from a cash flow perspective, to be able to pay affiliates even when your paying players (i.e. when players win… hence how you don’t get zeroed out when a player wins on the Wager Model).
This model is more expensive for us to run … it’s not a cost savings measure … don’t you think if all aff’s started earning less they’d just go in the other direction and push somebody else? I think as we continue to buy up the competition, i.e. integrity and now our more recent acquisition … I think you guys have to know that this company is in this for the long run & as traditional forms of media are harder and harder for casino’s to get involved in … that means we’ll be even more reliant on affiliates over the long term. You guys are a huge part of our business … and the company doesn’t want to ever jeopardize that. Period.
Maybe the underlying principle has gone unmentioned in all of this … this model was brought forward with full 35% profit share so we can pay affiliates more than the next guy AND provide the detailed player level stats … if we’re paying more and giving you more info, then we think in the long run affiliates will send their traffic to us instead of the next guy …
BJF, I’m not just being contradictory for the sake of it … you are one of the few affiliates who do earn more on RevShare … so I can understand your point of view (and you are correct for your account, but let’s face it … not everybody sends the specific type of players that you do – in fact, there are only about 6-7 of you guys).
So, to 98% of affiliates … you will earn more annually on the True 35% Wager Model.
I was thinking of staying with the revenue share for existing players, but am now staying with the wager share , I am already FAR beyond what I have ever earned with the revenue share and that is in just 9 days and I have had some nice months with rewards.So I will just stay with the new system.
same for me so I will keep that as well…
I am very happy with my results…
This month alone was worth switching for.
I noticed a ton of wagering by one person and it turns out this player won enough money to wipe me out.
Except for the fact that I get paid for all this wagering and get to be happy for the player AND myself. Definitely nice.
I personally like the old Rev. share system, I made $175 with the old system versus I think $4-5 bucks, I am a new affiliate alltogether and my players seem to lose there $500-$1000 very fast I think I am just an extreme example. I think if you have big time high-rollers for players, *possibly* Rev. share is better.
Hi,
I have been switched to the wager model.
I have one doubt… I usually had some good earnings from sub-affiliates in the revenue-share model.
In this new wager model what percentage will I earn from my sub-affiliates… currently i have 0$ in the sub-affiliate earnings… thats why im askingThanks,
GSHi all,
I’m back in the office and trying to catch up. I need a damn teleporter to get me to and from conferences. hehe …
On this issue … I had a look at your stats and last month was definitely abnormal for sub affiliates… So, Thanks for the heads up … we’ll have a look and get back to you shortly.

GSHi GS/All,
I titled this post ‘Happy Easter…’ because as I alluded in my previous post I thought something looked a bit abnormal. I was right.
Given all that took place over the past couple months here … i.e. lots of development, new stats, new payment model, testing, A’dam conference, aztec & phoenician acquisition, & more … it looks like the sub affiliate payments were actually drastically overstated. The error was caused by conflicting variables between the revshare and wager model. It is now fixed, so it was a one time thing.
So, to those who got extra coin for their sub affiliates … it’s yours. Happy Easter from RewardsAffiliates. Thanks for your loyalty and for helping us test during this transition period.
Hi,
Thanks for the info.
But i still would like to know what percentage will I earn in the Wager Model from the sub-affiliates?
Thanks,

GSSame as before, 5% of the sub affiliate’s earnings.
i think now when 35 percent is out . i prefer the 50$ per player model at least you get somebucks from your player not the understandable 5 percent :dajudge:
Kinda interesting here…
You have one person saying that they have made more money this month, but you have also have several people (myself included) saying that they made less (in my case a lot less, so much so in fact I quit the CR affiliate program over it) and you even have a few that say they are making the same amount.
Ryan, I really don’t see how you can justify statements like “…the Wager Model will earn more money annually for about 98% of affiliates.” Do you have any solid numbers to support that? Or are you adopting the method of repeating somthing untrue over and over till everyone believes it?
On this forum, in the several different threads about this subject, more people have stated that they made less by an almost three to one margin (yup I counted).
I only have one question if this statement is true “This model is more expensive for us to run … it’s not a cost savings measure …” If CR were concerned about us affiliates making more money why not just up the percentage on Rev share? Whould that not have been cheeper and easier and made ALL the affiliates happy?
don’t you think if all aff’s started earning less they’d just go in the other direction and push somebody else?
Some affiliates (like myself) are already doing just that and I’ll lay odds that more follow in the next few months.

And that is how it should be.
So which program did you replace CR with and why did you choose that particular one?
