No, absolutely not. It is free
to sign up, free to promote and free to
use our standard promotional materials.
You do not need to have a worldtexasholdempoker.com
Account to be an Affiliate.
As an Affiliate, you can select
how you get paid. We have two different
plans:
- Per sign up plan
means you will get paid a guaranteed amount
for every player that opens an Account
and makes a real money deposit to his
or her Account.
- Gross revenue percentage
share plan means you will get paid
a commission on what the house makes from
your players based on their contribution
to monthly gross revenue for the life
of their Account. In other words, the
bigger your players, the bigger your check.
The Poker gross revenue is
calculated as the sum total of all players'
contribution to all rakes the players were
involved in while playing at PartyPoker.com,
less any credits, bonus or promotional amounts
given to players, charge backs or any uncollectible
revenue attributable to the player. For
more details, see the Affiliate
Agreement.
We make all Affiliate payments
into your Affiliate Account by the fifth
of every month. To receive a cash out, login
with your Affiliate ID and password and
request a cash out according to your choice.
Cash out options include NeTeller, iGM-Pay,
paper check by FedEx, and paper check by
postal mail. You can also transfer funds
from your Affiliate Account directly into
your PartyPoker.com player Account.
Our state-of-the-art marketing
system allows you to login
anytime and check your statistics. You can
run your reports tracker by tracker (or
in summary) on a daily, weekly or monthly
basis. See how your Sub-Affiliates are doing
too! The reports are updated every day.
To access your stats, go to Affiliate
Login, login using your Affiliate ID
and password, and click Check Stats.
We pay all your affiliate accruals
directly into your Affiliate Account. To
receive a cash out, go to Affiliate
Login, login using your Affiliate ID
and password, and request a cash out using
any of the cash out options.
A tracking URL (or tracker)
is a specific web address used for tracking
online promotions. An example of a tracking
URL looks like this: http://www.partypoker.com/Downloads/3104047/PartyPokerSetup.exe.
You link your banners or text links through
your own unique tracking URL. Since each
tracking URL is unique, when a player enters
PartyPoker.com through one of your tracking
URLs, we credit that player to your Affiliate
Account. When using a tracking URL, there
is no need for the player to also enter
a sign up bonus code because our system
automatically knows it came from you.
A sign up bonus code is 3 to
12 digit code that you select in the system.
You can have one code or many codes for
different promotions. It can be numbers
and/or letters and look something like "4Poker"
or "WinNow123". Each code is unique and
is assigned to a particular Affiliate; hence,
when a player signs up using one of your
sign up bonus codes, we know to credit you
for that player. The bonus code is NOT case
sensitive. For example, a bonus code such
as 'POKER' is valid as "POKER" (upper case)
or "poker" (lower case) or "Poker" (upper
and lower case).
We strongly recommend that
you use a special promotional offer in your
marketing efforts to encourage players when
signing up. This will significantly improve
your conversion ratios (play money players
who make a deposit and become real money
players).
Each time you activate a sign
up bonus code or tracking URL, you can select
what type of bonus offer you want associated
with it, or no bonus offer at all.
There are three types of bonus offers that
you can choose from:
- 20% up to $100 bonus
- $25 bonus
- Free entry to the
Please keep in mind that bonus
amounts given to players are deducted in
the calculation of gross revenue, and all
bonus amounts are subject to release requirements
that must be met before any player can play
with or cash out the bonus amount so as
to prevent abuse. These restrictions or
requirements are contained in the offer
itself and/or on a supplementary disclaimer
page. See PartyPoker.com's standard
promotional offer terms & conditions
for more information on release requirements.
Players enter their sign up
bonus code on the Open Account screen in
the PartyPoker.com software, which is the
screen where they first select their AccountName
and password. Once entered, the system will
automatically record the code to give the
player the bonus amount, if any, when they
make their first real money deposit to their
Account. Please note that if you are promoting
offline using a sign up bonus code and if
players do not enter your code, they will
not be tracked to you.
A sign up bonus code is to
encourage players to sign up and make their
initial deposit, whereas a deposit bonus
code is to encourage existing real money
players to make additional deposits. Unlike
sign up bonus codes, the deposit bonus codes
are entered on the deposit screen of the
Cashier, not the Open Account screen. Generally
deposit bonus codes are only used internally
by PartyPoker.com to send to existing players
to stimulate deposits and increase actions
at the tables.
