probably then it is like I have said before they do not need us anymore
If the truth be known, that's a more likely scenario at play, here, now.
Fact they've told affiliates next to ziltch; nadda; nothing, seems a fairly obvious conclusion, that either they don't care anymore (because they have our referred players) or they are not saying anything, hoping affiliates will keep sending traffic, which they can funnel over to Betway as direct type_ins and such...
Either way it seems a lose lose for affiliates and again, a win win for these casinos.
For what it's worth, the longer this keeps going round in circles, the more UK players Betway gets signed up. This doesn't directly affect me, least not in the UK picture. But it could affect me down the track. If Buffalo et al have now adopted a 'what do we need affiliates for' attitude.
If it was my livelihood on the line here and I had a UK targeted site, I'd be yanking banners and links. Better to save some traffic than waste it on a distinct possibility that any UK players sent to other casinos in this group, wont be tracked or mapped over to Betway.
Edit: Oh and for the record... Betway retroactively introduced NCO, not long after they split from Wagershare in 2013.

Reiterating these amalgamation and take-overs etc (imho) have been very well planned and in the pipeworks for ages. A cynical person may wonder... if the Betway's split from Wagershare, was the commencement of this large scale plan, which has now fallen in the laps of every affiliate who promotes these "other" casinos to their UK traffic.
