Affiliate programs allow webmasters to earn revenue simply by directing traffic to online merchants via links and banners placed on their sites. This type of program is an ideal way for webmasters to earn money without having to set up an e-commerce infrastructure.
All of our merchants are fully licensed in their jurisdictions. At the present time, online gambling is not restricted in the United States or our other markets. Furthermore, affiliates function as marketing partners and earn revenue from advertising only, similar to portals that host gaming advertisements.
All of the promotional material that you place on your site in conjunction with the BrightShare program is embedded with tracking technology. When one of your site visitors clicks through to a BrightShare Network casino site, he/she is tagged with a special identifying code.That tag remains with the player throughout his/her lifetime with the casino enabling you to earn credit for all of that player’s activity.
Tags are special codes which are attached to all your banners, emails and other promotional material. The first time the player visits the casino, tracking software captures and logs his/her referral code. These tags identify players as having come from your site and enable us to track your commissions. BrightShare provides all affiliates with unique tags. To ensure functionality, each affiliate must use the exact tags provided. Altering the tags could result in a loss of tracking and subsequent loss of revenue.

We pay via online wallet.
BrightShare calculates commissions at the beginning of each month for the previous month's activity, and makes payments before the 20th of the month.
You can view all of your statistics online. Simply login to your BrightShare account and select the period you wish to view. You can view ALL casinos or each casino separately.
Your monthly commission is based on the net profit generated by your referred players, multiplied by your affiliate share. Net profit is calculated as total amount wagered minus the following: total amount paid out, promotional bonuses, progressive jackpot contribution fees and chargebacks.
Your commission is based on a player's losses at the casino.
Net losses are subtracted from the total new revenues you have generated for that month on a per group basis. However, a negative new revenue/net loss balance is not carried over to the next month.
As an affiliate, you benefit from a player that you refer for as long as he/she continues playing. The player is marked with your unique tag and as a result, all of his/her losses are tracked to you. This is referred to as "residual" or lifetime income.
Our statistics are updated every two hours, based on availability of data from the gaming servers.
Yes, we have the capability to record Flash account activity linked to your player.
While we allow you to send promotional mailings to subscribers on your double opt-in mailing lists, we do not allow spamming. Spamming creates a negative image of our clients and our program. If we are notified that an affiliate has been sending spam, we will lock the affiliate’s account until we can fully investigate the allegations. Affiliates who engage in repeated spamming will have their accounts permanently closed. During registration, affiliates are required to read and agree to our Spam Policy. Persons wishing to report spam can mail us at spamreport@brightshare.com.
Once you have been accepted to the BrightShare Affiliate Program you will receive a unique banner tag and a login and password. Use the login and password to enter the members' menu and select what you need from the wide array of marketing resources available for each casino client. You will receive notices of new graphics and marketing resources or changes in a casino's sign-up offer. All promotional banners and text links are served and updated by us, in order to optimize your player conversions, while save you time.
This is applicable only for affiliates who select to serve their own banners and text links. Upon notification of promotional changes on clients’ sites, these affiliates must update all banners, graphics and text within five business days. While occasional delays are understandable, affiliates who repeatedly ignore this requirement will have their accounts closed.
The casinos that we serve are dedicated to preserving the respectable image that they have worked hard to develop. As such, they do not wish to be associated with any site that contains material of an adult nature.
To close your BrightShare account, send an email request to our support desk. Please ensure that you provide us with your affiliate ID, your first and last name, and your residential address. We require this information for security and account confirmation purposes.
