AFFILIATE GUARD DOG TRACKS CHANGES IN AFFILIATE PROGRAM TERMS AND CONDITIONS
December 22, 2006

Posted by Sue in : General , add a comment

There’s a new dog in town. Affiliate Guard Dog is now up and running with a main purpose of tracking the Terms and Conditions of affiliate programs. Affiliate Guard Dog’s goal is “to aid affiliates in tracking the Terms and Conditions (T&C’s) at the time of signup and throughout the lifetime of the Affiliate Program. We are starting in the Casino industry which has seen a lot of retroactive T&C changes in the recent months.”

“In addition, Affiliate Guard Dog will monitor all Casino Affiliate Program’s (CAP) T&C’s for conditions which are considered predatory. All such conditions will be highlighted and described as to why they may be ‘taking advantage of’ the affiliate. There are many casino programs using such predatory terms in order to either not pay the affiliate for hard work done or to force that affiliate to place banners in specific locations.”

Affiliate Guard Dog provides tracking and reporting on changes in affiliate terms and conditions with email notification and rss feed. A forum is available to monitor programs currently being analyzed, suggest future programs for consideration and discussion on any program changes, possible repercussions and future direction.

CAP EURO FACES LAST MINUTE RELOCATION

iGAMING BUSINESS PRESS RELEASE

CAP Euro the biggest iGaming affiliate event ever to hit London has been forced to move venue at the last minute.

It’s not all bad though; the new venue (The London Olympia Conference Centre) has a bigger capacity, a much larger auditorium and is only 1.3 miles from the original venue Chelsea FC. In addition the organisers have promised to provide free shuttle buses from all the original recommended hotels that were located beside Chelsea FC to the new venue each day. However, if you did book your hotel through CAP Euro the hotels have guaranteed you can cancel your booking.

So how did this happen? Well surprisingly the Chelsea team actually took precedent over the CAP Euro event after the 4th round FA Cup game was announced it would take place on the same day as CAP Euro, and with a 50/50 chance of this happening CAP Euro was forced out of the venue. Suffice to say the organisers are now hardcore Arsenal fans!
Joking aside, we are determined to build upon the excitement and support CAP Euro has already received and with the stands now completely sold out it is looking even more like it will be the best iGaming affiliate event ever!

Keep an eye out because over the coming weeks we have lots going on including party announcements, free rolls for the ASOP, speaker announcements and much more.
If you have any questions regarding hotels, transport, logistics call or email Sasha Barker on +44 207 954 3459 or sasha@igamingbusiness.com

The Metro Philadelphia Newspaper established a weekly Wednesday “Gaming Section” in August of this year which publishes editorials containing Online Casinos, Poker and Sports Betting.

The largest daily newspaper in Philadelphia, Metro Philadelphia works to stay in touch with their readership. To do this, the paper considers the fact that a large part of their readership is young, internet savy and many visit casinos in nearby Atlantic City, not to mention the new slot parlors opening soon.

But they’re most excited to have just added Bodog.com as their latest full page advertiser and welcome any inquiries to join the next Gaming Section.
