I believe the max an affiliate gets for poker is 25%. I have never heard of any affiliate getting 40% on Bovada, at least from rev share just from poker.
I find it hard to believe Bovada would not let you withdrawal your balance just because your affiliate started being a chode. If that has happened to ppl its probably bcuz the affiliate had started making mult accounts on his/her own and it was the actual affiliate complaining. Bovada is smarter than risking their reputation on that.
There also no real incentive to keep the rev share (rb) if they expect you to keep playing. All they would be doing is making a tiny amt in the short term amd goving up lots of money in the long run. How are any of these deals any worse than a large affiliate doing "rake races"?
Not really. I won't post the full email cause i have no reason to damage the affiliate but i quote...
"For BetOnline and Bovada, since there are no rakeback or vip deals to be had anywhere, I offer anyone who signs up through me 50% of any commission that is paid by the affiliate. This usually equates to around ~20-25% rakeback, depending on the volume and stakes played. In addition, on BetOnline there is a $2,000 deposit bonus, or any amount lower than that if you don't want to deposit that much, but just keep in mind it needs to be cleared before you first cashout (someone people try to cashout right away after just playing a few hands, but it's in your best interest to clear the full amount first of course). With your new Bovada account, that will also come with a new $1,000 deposit bonus. For my higher volume players on Bovada/BetOnline, they earn an extra $300-$800/month, and I can pay that amount monthly directly to you on Paypal, Venmo, Black Chip Poker, or Intertops.Making a new Bovada account isn't that big of a deal and I've had several players do it so they can take advantage of the extra rakeback I can offer. It does need to be under a new name and email, however since they allow wire payouts people are generally able to still link their own bank account. If not, the worst case scenario is simply having the person you use sign over checks to you. It can be any trusted friend, relative, etc. Many people use cousins, parents, whomever you would be most comfortable with. Remind them the money/check never touches their own bank account so there is no record or implication to them (even though none of this is illegal it can worry some people), they simply sign it over to you.
edit: can a mod delete my post tomorrow as i might need this affiliate in the future. thanks!
