No, absolutely not. It is free to sign up,
free to promote and free to use our standard promotional materials.
As an Affiliate, you can select how you want
to get paid. We have two different plans and here is how they
differ:
a). Per Sign Up Plan means you will get paid
a guaranteed amount for every Player that opens an Account
and makes a real money deposit to their Account; or
b). Gross Revenue Percentage Share means you
will get paid a commission on what the house makes from your
Players based on their contribution to Monthly Gross Revenue,
for the life of their Account, i.e., the bigger your Players,
the bigger your check. How Big? Click
here to see the potential.
Gross Revenue is calculated as the sum total
of all Players' contribution to all "rakes" the
Players were involved while playing at the Site, less any
credits, bonus or promotional amounts given to Players, chargebacks
or any uncollectable revenue attributable to the Player. For
more details, see the Affiliate
Agreement.
A Sign Up Bonus Code is 3 to 12 digit code
that you select in the system. You can have one code or many.
It can be numbers and/or letters and look something like "4Poker".
Each code is unique and is assigned to a particular Affiliate;
hence, when a Player signs up using one of your Sign Up Bonus
Codes, we know to credit you for that Player.
Each time you activate a Sign Up Bonus Code
or Tracking URL, you can select what type of bonus offer you
want associated with it, or none.
PLEASE NOTE: Bonus Amounts given to Players
are deducted in the calculation of Gross Revenue, and all
Bonus Amounts are subject to Release Requirements which must
be met before any Player can play with or cash out the Bonus
Amount so as to prevent abuse. See PartyPoker's Standard
Promotional Offer Terms & Conditions for more information
on Release Requirements.
If you are promoting offline using a Sign
Up Bonus Code, we strongly recommend that you use a special
promotional offer in your marketing material to encourage
Players to enter your code when signing up. If they do not
enter a code, we will not be able to track the Player back
to you.
If you are using a Tracking URL for online
promotions, you do NOT need to offer your Players a special
promotional offer to sign up, although it will help encourage
Players to join (your conversion ratios will increase); however
the Bonus Amounts given to Players are deducted from the calculation
of Monthly Gross Revenue so be cautious.
Players
enter their Sign Up Bonus Code on the Open Account screen
which is the same screen where they first select their AccountName
and Password to the site. Once entered, the system will automatically
record the code to give the Player the Bonus Amount when they
make their first real money deposit to their Account.
Players can use his/her Account to play the
free games, but must make a real money deposit in order to
play the cash games or tournaments. You will only receive
payment on Players that open an Account and make real money
desposit(s) to their Accounts.
A Tracking URL is used for online promotions.
It looks like this http://www.PartyPoker/index.htm?wm=2000616
and you link your banners or text links through it. Each Tracking
URL is unique so when a Player enters the site through one
of your Trackers, we credit that Player to your marketing
account.
When using a Tracking URL, there is no reason
for the Player to also enter a Sign Up Bonus Code because
we automatically know it came from you.
A
Sign Up Bonus Code is to encourage Players to sign up and
make their initial deposit, whereas a Deposit Bonus Code is
to encourage Players to make additional deposits. Unlike Sign
Up Bonus Codes, the Deposit Codes are entered on the Deposit
Screens, not the Open Account Screen.
Generally Deposit Bonus Codes are only used
internally by PartyPoker to mail to existing Players to
stimulate deposits and increase actions at the tables.
You can activate as many Trackers as you
want. To activate multiple Trackers, you will need to first
sign up as an Affiliate at http://www.PartyPoker/affiliates/sign_up_form.htm.
Then go to Affiliate Login at http://www.PartyPoker/affiliates/login.htm
and login using your Affiliate ID and Password. Click 'Activate
Additional Trackers' and simply complete the form and submit
to activate your Trackers. Each time you activate a new Tracker,
you can select a particular payment type and a particular
bonus offer for each Tracker.
A Sub-Affiliate is someone other than you
(or a company in which you are a majority stockholder) that
promotes PartyPoker underneath you and that you get credit
for.
To register a Sub-Affiliate underneath you,
login to the Marketing Section of the website at http://www.PartyPoker/
and click 'Register Sub-Affiliate'. The system will automatically
send the Sub-Affiliate an email with his/her tracking information
and report access.
Your Sub-Affiliates will get paid the standard
rates, but you will get an additional 20% of what we pay them.
We will automatically send your Sub-Affiliate their payment
at the end of each month, and also add the additional money
into your payment.
Easy, our state of the art marketing system,
allows you to login anytime, from anywhere, and see your statistics
in real time, right up to the minutes. You can run the reports
tracker by tracker, or in summary, on a daily, weekly or monthly
basis. See how your Sub-Affiliates are doing too. To access
your stats, go to Affiliate Login, login using your Affiliate
ID and Password and click ‘Reports’
By default, we will send you all your payments
check-by-mail, however upon request, we will pay you by wire
($35 fee), PayPal, FirePay, or deposit to your PartyPoker
Account. Just ask us. Payments are sent within 15 days of the
close of each month. For example payment for January 1 -31,
will be sent to you by February 15.
Payments less than $50 will be held over
until the total due you is more than $50 and then sent to
you.
Yes. We can custom order CDs for you, with
your unique Tracker embedded into the software. We charge
you only the actual cost of having the CDs made. In addition,

– or we can custom design special promotional items
just for you. For a complete listing of banners, fliers, and
other promotional materials, go to Affiliate Login, login
using your Affiliate ID and Password, then click 'Banners
& Promotional Materials'.
