Shuffle.com iGaming Affiliate Program - Possible Scam

[AussieDave]

The GPWA have, today, announced Silver sponsorship from Shuffle. However, reading what the actual affiliates are paid, is, to me, a major concern, and a topic, best to add here, hopefully to help affiliates NOT get shafted.

Instead of the usual ReveShare. Shuffle is paying on Theoretical Edge. Which basically means, Wagering.

However, things start to become funky, when, one crunches the numbers.

According to the site: hxxps://shuffle.com/affiliate, the Theoretical Edge they pay out on is 0.1. Therefore, if an affiliate is being paid 25%, they earn an AMAZING $0.025 cents (2.5 cents), per $100 wagered.

Even at 45% which Shuffle claim is their biggest commission % on offer, an affiliate would only be paid, $0.045 cents (4.5cents) per $100 wagered.

While some program do pay on Theoretical Edge (wagering) they pay a fair %. $1.30 on slots is a fair deal. $0.025 to $0.045 is anything but fair. It's a major rip-off!

The following is a direct quote from the Shuffle.com affiliate page.
(they do not have a dedicated affiliate program)

Earn 10%+ of net revenue from the house edge for every bet made. Take money from Shuffle, not your friends. Earnings are based on theoretical house edge (0.1 Net Theoretical House Edge Wagered Amount).

A scam is about all this seems to amount to. Shame of the GPWA for even allowing this program sponsorship!
