Co-op affiliate

Unabridged · #1 10-01-2005, 03:02 PM

would it be possible for a bunch of players(enought to become a really high volume affiliate) to get together and start their own affiliate and then refer themselves? then pass out all the rakeback to themselves?

There is a huge problem with that. Who is going to make the payments and what is their incentive?

Well they will just have to trust their friends. Obviously I am affiliated with this forum, but to say that you can trust all affiliates to pay and not your friend's is kind of silly. It takes a lot to get a good reputation as an affiliate. And that only comes with time.

Of course, I would want player's to come through us, but I wouldn't say their friends have no incentive to pay them if they do it on their own.

Yes. One of you should signup at www.affiliateEV.com and then setup all your friends with accounts. We will pay the 1 person all of the money at the end of the month, and then he can split it up evenly between all of you (based on your play). I know a few players doing this same thing and it works out well.

I had this idea in May. I even started workign on it, but my own bad run in poker took all my time away. I had a website all set up and a ton of ideas behind it. No time...
