January Mid Month Poll – How’s Business?

I voted excellent – and that is true for signups and deposits. But I do have some winners again in programs that bundle. I am starting to reconsider my opinon of some bundling places, even if the bottom line is sometimes excellent.

Other times it’s not, and I am getting too old for ths s#!t. Now I’ll have to spend all month climbing out of a hole and hope to make a profit in the end.

It’s too much like gambling itself when they bundle – the house always wins, and I stand to lose very frequently. Might as well just bet my month’s income on red.

Despite some recent statements about which programs I like, my tolerance for this is starting to run thin.

winners are killing me….im trying to shift back to more POKER related

Totally agree with worldpeace and Dominique. I am new to this business, started only 2 months ago, and have just a few customers. All of them in a program that bundles. The winners are killing my profit second month in a row! One player in particular. Every time he loses a $1,000, he puts in another $2,000 and wins $3,000! It has been repeated 3 times within 20 days. If not for a good reputation of this affiliate program, I would have suspected a fishy business going. Started to look for me it is more profitable to play at a casino than to become its affiliate!
It is a surprize for me to know that even big guys like gamesandcasino.com with such a huge variety of affiliate programs and casino options can get in the red once in a while. Btw how often does it happen with established businesses, if it is not a secret?

It happens randomly – it is as much luck as the player has.

It tends to reverse itself eventually with most programs – but with bundling programs the chances that it reverses itself are much smaller.

The casinos have the budget to absorb these things easily, affiliates in general do not.

hello, what do you mean by “programs that bundle” ?

also is it only some affiliate programs that let you see how much single players have deposited & won/lost

my best casino pays me weekly
good for januari sofar

bundle: different casinos into one paying account

ahh i see – thanks for the reply

I have been doing alot of searching for the right affiliate programs to join recently- i did come accross some that had multiple casinos which offered no carry neg carry over from casino to casino, so if you did get a big win in one it wont affect the other(s) – one of the programs im with Ad-richs does this

I just started out a month ago, and I have the same problem with people winning. This is from one Casino with 12 active players and the losses is not neg after eatch period:

Period 1: $ -70.99
Period 2: $ -149.31
Period 3: $ -207.42
Period 4: $ -214.93

Is this normal?

Edit: The losses is my losses (15% share)

I am a newbie but I think it is normal (as far as you trust your affiliate program!). As Dominique mentioned, it is totally random. You never know how will you finish this month- in the red, or with a nice paycheque.
A couple of days ago my few existing clients were winning, and my balance was – $3,500. I even contacted my affiliate manager inquiring about three suspicious winnings in a row by one of my players.
Today, I am back into the positive territory after some players lost big. A couple of them are extremely active, playing practically every day (slots and table games). Within the last month each of them lost over $3,000!
So it is pure luck. Who knows, maybe tomorrow I will be in the red again? At least, I have prepared myself for that.
