Enrollment as an affiliate in the Superior Share Partner Program. You will
have to register as an affiliate by completing the online form. By
downloading a banner and placing it on your website/s, you are deemed to
have agreed to be bound by all the terms and conditions set out in this
agreement.
This agreement details all the terms and conditions of membership to the
Superior Share Partner Program, designed to reward website owners
(hereinafter referred to as the Affiliate) for directing new customers to
the participating casino merchants, (hereinafter referred to as the
Merchants or the Clients as the case may be) through its Affiliate Program
agent Superior Share (hereinafter referred to as Superior Share).
Whenever Superior Share terms and conditions modify, all affiliates will
be emailed with information about corresponding changes.
-
Responsibilities of the Affiliate
- As Affiliate you are responsible for promoting the merchant by
implementing the advertising, banners and tracking URL's on your
websites, e-mails or other communications.
- You will present only approved content and topics on your site.
Content that is deemed unsuitable will result in the affiliate
agreement being terminated.
-
Affiliation Guidelines
- Only approved and properly tagged creative materials, supplied
by us from time to time, may be used to promote the merchant.
Advertorials and personal endorsements are allowed but all
materials not designed by the merchants needs to be approved in
writing; such approval shall not be unreasonably withheld.
- You may not modify any banners or other creative material
supplied by us without the written prior consent of Superior
Share.
- By agreeing to participate in the affiliate program, you are
agreeing to download banners, text or promotional material and
place it on your site, utilize it within e-mail, direct
marketing using your affiliate URL or print. These methods are
by which you may advertise on the merchants behalf.
- Banners and links may not be placed within unsolicited e-mail,
unauthorized newsgroup postings, or chat rooms or through the
use of "bots". Traffic generated illegally will not be
counted.
- We will terminate this agreement immediately if there is any
form of spamming or if you discredit the merchants or Superior
Share through false advertising, written or uttered words.
- You shall not make any claims, representations, or warranties
in connection with us or the merchants and you shall have no
authority to and shall not bind us or the merchants to any
obligations.
- Without our prior written approval, you will only use our
approved banners and links and will not alter their appearance
nor refer to us in any promotional materials. The appearance and
syntax of the hypertext transfer links are designed and
designated by us and constitute the only authorized and
permitted representation of our merchants sites.
- You will not knowingly benefit from known or suspected traffic
not generated in good faith whether or not it actually causes
Superior Share or the Merchants damage. Should fraudulent
activity arise through a person directed to a site via your
link, we retain the right to retract the commissions paid to you
at any time. Our decision in this regard will be final and no
correspondence will be entered into. We reserve the right to
retain all amounts due to you under this Agreement if we have
reasonable cause to believe that such traffic has been caused
with your knowledge. Even if you have not knowingly generated
such traffic, we reserve the right to withhold referral fees
with respect to such.
- Affiliate must not alter form fields or scripts in Superior
Share supplied marketing materials which are designed to collect
contact information from players, in an attempt to hijack such
information for affiliate or advertiser's own use.
- Affiliates are prohibited from playing at any of the casino
websites promoted by Superior Share through their own affiliate
link or from the affiliate link of an associate who shares all
or part of the commission with the affiliate. This shall include
any individuals or playing groups from which an Affiliate
receives compensation or remuneration from of any kind. In the
event of violation of this section, Superior Share and the
respective website that has been played with shall have the
right to void all play and eliminate any earned commissions
applicable from such play and eliminate the Affiliate from our
Affiliate program and void any future play at the casino
websites.
-
Purchase Processing
- You are only responsible for directing customers to the
properties.
- Only properly tagged customers can be assigned to an affiliate.
Should an affiliate tag be improperly inserted into the
affiliate site or not properly received by the casino server the
resulting customer registration and purchases will not be
assigned to the affiliate. Therefore it is the responsibility of
the affiliate to ensure that all links are properly tagged.
-
Revenue Sharing & Payment
- Superior Share, as agent for the Merchants, will pay out a
revenue share on the Commissionable earnings generated by each
customer, as defined by the merchant.
- Commissionable earnings are calculated as the merchant's profit, less charge-backs, complimentary money, free money offers and other incentives offered to the customer. No admin fees are applied while calculating the commission earned by affiliates.
- Charge-back: A credit card holder discovers
irregular transactions made on his/her Credit/Debit
Card, which were not authorized by him/her. The
credit card holder then requests his/her bank to
reverse these charges. Charge-backs relate to
fraudulent use by a third party of the credit card
holder's card or card number.
- Should the player process a charge-back, the
disputed or charged-back revenue generated by
yourself will be forfeited and therefore deducted
from the total balance due to you for the current
month.
- Should this deduction of the accumulated revenue
exceed your current amount due, your balance will
then revert to a negative balance, and you will have
to earn revenue to cover the charge-back before you
can start earning revenue again.
- Unlike with a player making a big winning, which
only lasts one month, a charge-back will stay due
till the revenue generated by your other players has
covered the amount due.
- We understand that this might be frustrating to the
Affiliates, but it has to be made clear that the
casino can only pay out a percentage of their
profits, not fraudulent revenue.
- Complimentary Money, Free Money and other
incentives refer to those amounts credited to the
account of customers. As they have not purchased
these amounts we cannot pay commissions on these
amounts.
- Commissionable earnings are defined by the deal agreed individually with an affiliate manager in advance.
- Negative earnings are NOT carried forward and the affiliate
will begin each month on a zero balance. Should the affiliate
close the month with a positive balance, commissions will be
paid on the positive balance. Should the affiliate close the
month with a negative balance, this balance will NOT be carried
forward to the next month, unless the negative balance is a
result of a charge-back.
- Commissionable earnings will be earned for the life of the customer, on all transactions the customer undertakes at the merchant, for as long as the affiliate remains an active member of this affiliate program.
-
Payments will be done by bank wire, BTC or USDT the following month of the commission owed. Affiliates will have to request their payout by writing to their account manager. Sending fees will apply. For bank wire, invoices will have to be produced by an affiliate partner. An affiliate needs to have at least $2500 on balance to pass the minimum threshold for bank wire; $200 minimum withdrawal amount is applied for BTC and USDT payments.
-
Progressive Jackpots Contributions on Rival brands
- As a Superior
Share affiliate, you will share
the progressive jackpot contributions at the
revenue share percentage set in your account.
- Upon a completed
cash out, the affiliate will receive credit to
offset the withdrawal after the affiliate's portion
of the seed is accounted
for. As soon as the progressive win balance reaches
10% or less of the jackpot
won,
- ALL our affiliates will receive their proportional share of the loss.
- All Jackpot
losses, from any players that hit any of our
Jackpots,
will be distributed Prorata to all affiliates within
our program. Once again,
according to your proportional rate of contributions
within our Casino.
- Please note that
the Prorata system, gives credits for
player losses back to all affiliates of our casino.
This prevents the lottery
of one affiliate reaping all of the progressive
contributions from a
win.
-
CPA Terms
If you are promoting Superior Share casinos on a Cost Per
Acquisition (CPA) basis, the following terms apply:
- Superior Share, as agent for the Merchants, will pay out an
individually agreed upon CPA amount for acquired customers, as
defined by the merchant.
-
Acquired customers are determined as depositing players who deposit an amount equal to a minimum baseline of the agreed CPA amount.
- Charge-back: A credit card holder discovers
irregular transactions made on his/her Credit/Debit
Card, which were not authorized by him/her. The
credit card holder then requests his/her bank to
reverse these charges. Charge-backs relate to
fraudulent use by a third party of the credit card
holder's card or card number.
- Should the player process a charge-back, the
disputed or charged-back revenue generated by
yourself will be forfeited and therefore the CPA
amount cannot be paid to affiliate.
- We understand that this might be frustrating to the
Affiliates, but it has to be made clear that the
casino can only pay out on non-fraudulent revenue.
- Complimentary Money, Free Money and other
incentives refer to those amounts credited to the
account of customers. As they have not purchased
these amounts we cannot consider these amounts as
deposits.
- Superior Share reserves the right to move CPA affiliates into
our revenue share program if it is determined that the bulk of
their referrals are players who abuse the casino promotions.
-
Policies & Confidentiality
- The merchants assume ownership of the customer at point of
first contact with the visitor. You, as affiliate, act as a
referring agent for the merchants. We reserve the right to
