Independent iGaming affiliate standards registry

Last updated 2026-08-14

Casino affiliate programs pay publishers a share of the revenue, or a fixed fee, for every real-money player they send to a licensed operator. This page is the full AffSafe registry of iGaming affiliate programs: every entry is scored by working affiliates across six categories — customer service, RevShare commission, licensing, promos, affiliate-manager access and payment methods — and nothing on the list can buy a higher position.

The commercial models are consistent across the vertical even when the numbers are not. A RevShare deal pays a percentage of net gaming revenue for the lifetime of the player, typically 25–45%, and rewards affiliates whose traffic retains. A CPA deal pays a one-off amount per qualifying first-time depositor, usually between €80 and €350 depending on market and deposit threshold. Hybrid deals combine a reduced CPA with a smaller lifetime percentage and have become the default in newly regulated markets such as Brazil and Ontario.

What separates a good program from an expensive mistake is rarely the headline rate. It is the contract detail underneath: whether negative carryover resets monthly, how administrative and bonus costs are deducted before your share is calculated, whether the operator holds a licence in the market your traffic comes from, and how quickly a real person answers when a postback breaks. Every listing below records those terms so you can compare them side by side rather than discovering them three months into a partnership.

Programs enter the registry either by applying through the submission form or by being added by our registry desk when affiliate reports reach a reportable volume. Scores are recalculated as new verified reports arrive, and a confirmed unresolved payment dispute suspends a program from the rankings until it is settled.

How to choose a casino affiliate program

  • Check the licence against your traffic

    An operator licensed in Malta but taking players from a market it is not permitted in exposes you, not just them. Match the licence jurisdiction to where your audience actually is.

  • Read the carryover clause first

    Negative carryover means a losing month follows your balance forward, so a single high-roller win can zero your income for a quarter. Programs that reset monthly are worth several percentage points of headline RevShare.

  • Ask what is deducted before your share

    Bonus costs, payment processing, gaming duty and 'administrative fees' can remove 20–30% of gross revenue before the split. Ask for a worked example on a real month.

  • Test affiliate manager response time

    Email before you sign. A program that takes four days to answer a pre-sale question will take longer when your tracking breaks and money is on the line.

  • Verify the payment schedule in writing

    Net-30 from month end is the norm. Confirm the minimum payout, the currencies, the methods and who absorbs the transfer fee.

  • Prefer programs with independent standing

    Safe Mark certification means the program passed a nine-point audit covering licensing, payment history, contract terms and dispute handling.

Frequently asked questions

How do iGaming affiliate programs work?
You register with the program, receive a unique tracking link, and place it on your site or campaigns. When a visitor clicks it, deposits and plays, the program attributes the player to you and pays either a percentage of that player's net gaming revenue, a one-off CPA, or a hybrid of both.
What is a casino affiliate program?
It is the partner scheme run by an online casino or its network, allowing independent publishers to promote the brand for commission. It is performance-based: you are paid on depositing players, not on clicks or impressions.
How much do casino affiliates earn?
Earnings scale with the quality and volume of depositing players rather than traffic alone. RevShare rates in the registry run from 25% to 45% of net gaming revenue, and CPA payments from roughly €80 to €350 per first-time depositor depending on market and deposit threshold.
Should I take CPA or RevShare?
CPA suits paid traffic where you need predictable payback within the campaign window. RevShare suits SEO and content traffic that retains for years. Hybrid is the sensible default when you are testing a new operator and want cash flow plus upside.
What is negative carryover?
If a player wins more than they lose in a month, the program's revenue for you is negative. With negative carryover, that deficit rolls into the next month and is deducted from your earnings. Without it, the balance resets to zero each month.
Are gambling affiliate programs legal?
Promoting licensed gambling operators is legal in most regulated markets, but advertising rules differ by country and often require age-gating, responsible-gambling messaging and, in some jurisdictions, registration of the affiliate itself. Check the rules of the market you send traffic from.
