10 Other factors to consider when selecting an affiliate...

1. The size of the affiliate and the length of time they have been in business.

2. The number of rooms offered by the affiliate.

3. The number of employees working at the affiliate.

4. The response time to inquiries. (An affiliate with a few employees can provide rapid round the clock answers to your questions, while a single person shop might only respond once/day or less)

5. The cashout methodology. Is there a monthly minimum? When do you receive the $$?

6. Does the affiliate offer regular tracking updates?

7. Is the affiliate advertising on 2+2 or a rakeback directory/watchdog?

8. Does the affiliate clearly detail the added value you will receive for high volume play on their website? (ie higher % for specific performance targets)

9. Is the affiliate continuously working with the poker rooms to increase your rakeback%? (The largest affiliates will be doing this as the rake by their players increase, and the best will be returning this extra to their players)

10. Does the affiliate offer any extras, like private tournaments or coaching, that further adds value to the relationship?
