Hello AGD community,

Today we present to you the real revenue share audit report for Royal Partners.

Test deposit was made at thier brand Sol Casino.

Affiliate Reporting Platform: affilka

Admin fee figure found in terms and conditions/or on website: admin fee 0% is stated in the affiliate program T&C
“Clean Net Revenue
means the Net Gaming Revenue less: commission fee for payment systems, royalty fee, the share of jackpots that your players had and administration fee. Administration fees refers any other taxes. The currently charged administration fee is 0%.”


Test signup and deposit is made from Country ‘Serbia’

We deposited €20 via Skrill and took a welcome bonus of 100%.

Our funds with the welcome offer were €40 and we started playing some slots.

Eventually, we lost all the funds and checked the earnings report:

For the deposit of RUB 1327.16 via Skrill NGR was RUB 942.28

To summarize, the Effective Net Gaming Revenue (the amount of money deposited and lost) is 942.28/1327.16 = 71%.

Finally, multiply the advertised revenue share rate with the Effective NGR to see your real revenue share rate, e.g:
  • 25% = 17.50 %
  • 30% = 21.00 %
  • 35% = 24.50 %
  • 40% = 28.00 %
  • 45% = 31.50 %
  • 50% = 35.00 %

If the "Admin Fee" is currently 0%, then they must be reaping that fee and calling it something else, because... The TRUE % earned for each tier, is the same as or very close to, the same tier %'s other affilka programs are running at, who, deduct a "Admin Fee" from affiliate GGR.

Either way, it's just another inflated advertised BS marketing, to hide the true crappy commission %'s.

No thank you!

Hello AGD community,

First of all we’d like to thank Guard Dog for making and sharing the audit report for Royal Partners. We really appreciate that.

Since there might be some questions regarding the outcomes we’d like to clarify every point in advance.

We don’t average the percentage we’re subtracting while calculating the CNR (Clean Net Revenue) as it’s individual for each of our partners.

The percentage depends on the following factors:
- The game provider which slots were played by webmaster’s leads
- The payment system and the currency that were used
- The share of the jackpot that falls on the driven players

Since all these factors are individual for each of our partners we consider it inappropriate and unfair to subtract a fixed percentage while calculating the CNR.

That’s why we’ve implemented the new statistics section where each of our partners can see all the expenses that fall on the driven players in one place.

We’d like to remind that all the subtractions are described in Royal Partner’s Terms and Conditions.

Let’s have a look at the screenshot once again:

According to it, we can see that the Payment fee stands at 5% (66,36 RUB of 1327,16 RUB dep amount) while the Royalty fee for the game providers is 12% (318,52 RUB of 2654,32 RUB Casino GGR). The Jackpot share is 0% as there weren’t any. The total amount of bonuses received is 1327 RUB (which is NOT real money and was substracted 100%).

We’d like to reming how the CNR (Clean Net Revenue) is calculating at Royal Partners:

CNR = Bet Sum - Win Sum - Bonuses - Payment System Fees - Royalty Fee - Jackpot Share (in this very case the latter is 0%)

This case's statistics:
CNR = 4051,82 - 1397,5 - 1327,16 - 66,36 - 318,52 - 0 = 942,28 RUB


All these calculations are visible in the statistics section for each of our partners while the general formula can be found in Terms and Conditions.

If we do a simple math then it becomes clear that we follow our principles of transparency and openness and have no hidden fees for our partners.

Hope the explanation will help!

If you have any questions feel free to talk to us.

Best,
Royal Partners

Advertising X BUT then only paying Z.

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there is nothing open, nor transparent about it.

Below (bold) are the % tier levels, of which, your program, takes; removes; garnishes; deducts (call it what you like), but either way, and reiterating, whatever your program advertises is NOT what your program pays:
  • 25% = 17.50 %
  • 30% = 21.00 %
  • 35% = 24.50 %
  • 40% = 28.00 %
  • 45% = 31.50 %
  • 50% = 35.00 %
Other programs manage to pay commission tier %'s on what they advertise, so lets not try to Spin Dr this into anything other than, affiliates being taken for a ride.

Reiterating... No Thanks!

P.S... FYI, I've been doing this for 23 years. Can't blind me with BS.
