Focal Click have changed their terms and conditions in such a way that affiliates will actually benefit from the changes made. What a unique concept! In recent times too many programs have changed in an effort to increase their bottom line while holding the affiliate hostage. Kudos to Focal Click. It is very much worth your time to show Focal click how you feel by promoting their properties. Keep the good quality programs alive!

Negative balances (your referred customers win during the month) will not be carried over to the following month.

It is at the management’s to review accounts on a case-by-case basis and recalculate earnings if there are no more than 3 separate distinct and unique players playing for that month if circumstances deem necessary. If your customers lose money in one of our properties, but win in another, you will still earn your commission based on the Adjusted Gross Revenue of the property in which your customers lost. If you have an ECash Direct account with ECash Direct (UK) Limited, your earnings will be credited to your ECash Direct by the 15th day of each month. If you don’t have an ECash Direct account, your check will be in the mail by no later than the 15th day of each. Please, we will not mail checks until youhave earned at least $250 in referral fees. Referral fees will be based upon our good faith calculation based on our statistics.
