What is the 888.com Official Affiliate Program?
The 888.com Official Affiliate Program allows you to promote the 888.com group brands, Casino-on-Net and Pacific Poker, for a performance-based commission. You may promote our brands in various ways, including by placing links to our site on yours, promoting us off-line through CDs and flyers, and many more, as long as they comply with our Terms & Conditions.
 
What do I get paid for?
Your commission is performance based, this means that the 888.com Official Affiliate Program will pay you for referring “Real New Money Players” or a share of the revenue your “Real New Money Players” generate.
 
Does it cost me anything to become an Affiliate?
No! It's absolutely free to join our Affiliate Program. There is no charge to apply.
 
How does the Affiliate Program work?
The Affiliate Program allows you to make money by referring players to our website. You do this by placing our links on your site. As an Affiliate, you can select how you wish to earn your commission.
We have two different plans:
CPA - Per Sign Up Plan: you will be paid a guaranteed amount for every New Depositing Player who opens an Account and makes a Real Money Deposit to their Account;
Revenue Share - Gross Revenue Percentage Share: you will be paid a commission that is a percentage of what the house makes from the Players referred by you. The commission is based on the Players' contribution to Monthly Gross Revenue, for the life time of their Account - i.e., the more your players play, the bigger your check.
 
Which payment plan should I choose?

As an 888.com Affiliate, you can create tracking codes of any of the following commission types:

Pacific Poker PER NEW MEMBER PLAN (CPA):

Monthly Number of New Pacific Poker Members

Amount You Earn per each New Pacific Poker Member

1-10

$150

11+

$200



OR

GROSS REVENUE SHARE SCHEME:*

Pacific Poker’s Gross Revenue per Calendar Month

% of Gross Revenue you receive

$0-$10,000

25%

$10,001+

30%

*Commission for the first month is 88.8%, no matter how much revenue was generated!



For these purposes the term "Pacific Poker’s Gross Revenue" shall mean the sum total of all Real Players' contributions to the "rake" the New Real Players were involved in while playing at Our Site, less any credits, bonus or promotional amounts given to these  Real New Players, chargebacks or any uncollectible revenue attributable to the Real New Players. A New Real Player's contribution to the "rake" shall be determined by multiplying the quotient obtained when dividing the actual amount to a hand contributed by the New Real Player by the total bet of each hand, by the total "rake" of the hand in question. We hereby retain the right to convert the commissions to be paid to you hereunder from a per Real New Player basis to the Gross Revenue share scheme, as we shall see fit.

 

Casino-on-Net PER NEW MEMBER PLAN (CPA):

Monthly Number of New Casino-on-Net Members

Amount You Earn per each New Casino-on-Net Member

1-20

$200

21-40

$250

41+

$300



OR

GROSS REVENUE SHARE SCHEME:*

Casino-on-Net’s Gross Revenue per Calendar Month

% of Gross Revenue you receive

$0-$10,000

25%

$10,001–$30,000

30%

$30,001-$70,000

35%

$70,001

45%

*Commission for the first month is 88.8%, no matter how much revenue was generated!



For these purposes the term "Casino-on-Net’s Gross Revenue" shall mean the sum total of all of a Real New Player's bets while playing at Our Site, less the winnings of a Real New Player, less any credits, bonus or promotional amounts given to a  Real Player, less any chargebacks (including amounts paid as a result of credit card abuse or fraud, or paid to a Real New Player by Cassava to settle a claim involving the allegation of credit card or other abuse or fraud) or any non collectable revenue attributable to a Real New Player. We hereby retain the right to convert the commissions to be paid to you hereunder from a per Real New Player basis to the Gross Revenue share scheme, as we shall see fit.


We suggest the Per Sign Up plan if you are not sure your players are big players, but if you know they are big, then go for the Revenue Share, because the bigger your players, the bigger your checks.
