Best "Big Casino"

[Hazo]

So I'm looking for an option to give my players and I haven't found what I am looking for. I'm going to add Bodog but they are the biggest brand I will have.

I also have Millionaire, English Harbour, Rushmore and Cherry Red. While these are great options for a newer casino player they woudn't know who the hell they are.

So I need a "big option." I'm thinking something like Bet365 or similar. I haven't heard form those guys since they sacked one of my favourite AMs.

So who would you recommend that comes into this category?

You can give the BestCasinoPartner brands a shot, GoldenCasino.com, OnlineVegas.com and GoCasino.com

Shoot me a msg if you have any questions and I'll be glad to answer them for you

I have been talking with Riyaz.

Anyone else have any recommendations or AMs have something to offer me?

Rewards has 19 casinos and blackjack ballroom and capt cooks have a ton of press due to all the progressive wins.

No usa though.

Hazo, Bet365 is a very good choice and they DO cross-promote so you can get additional revenue beside casinos (they don't take US players though).
You could consider Paddypower and Virgin too, they are well known in UK and Ireland and also Ladbrokes. Most of these have land-based presence too, so brand awareness is high. (But the other side of the coin that a lot of players have account with them already.)

Bodog is ok for your US traffic, but they don't accept Canadians and they carry over negatives, so it might be a bit risky

Thanks Sipka,

I have emailed Bet365 manager because I don't have an Am since he got sacked an noone has contacted me. Ladbrokes has virtually no affiliate program from what I hear. I don't know much about Paddy or Virgin in terms of how well they convert so I will have to look into them.

Does anyone have any experience with Party Casino? I have pretty much heard 0 about them ever.

Hazo, try Geof from Bet365 here on CAL or PAL if you don't get answer through email, usually he answers on the same day on workdays.

Regarding Partycasino I think the well-known Party Poker brand can push the casino too, you can try them, if I remember right they "can" carry over negatives, but I'm not sure, should check.

You can promote Ladbrokes directly (Ladbrokes Affiliates) or through Income Access, I think both options are OK. They have a forum on CAP and what I see they are quite active there, so I guess they will be active by answering emails too.

Geof was the AM I had that was let go. Oh I just remembered I have a contact on MSN for Ladbrokes. I will have to ask around some more though on their history etc. Same with Party - sucks if they have negative. I already have Bodog with that and that's more than enough. Bet365 have it too

Thanks for the recommendations.

Still looking for some more options though.

I just cant get over how difficult Bet365 makes it to withdraw your commision. First you have to login to the affilate area and generate a invoice. Then print out the document and sign it. Fax it to the affiliate department and if everything is ok, they will send the funds to a Bet365 player account. And wow, now you can withdraw using all their regular player options.

Did i mention that the first time i did this i forgot to actually sign the document. About three weeks later i emailed them and asked what was going on. They had recieved the fax but because i didnt sign it they just threw it in the garbage. (even if you have to login to the affiliate area to print the document)

Well, i had to repeat the process and sign the document and fax it again. Too bad i didnt have a fax machine or a scanner at that point so i had to go to the post office for the second time. Anyways, i stopped promoting them right away and encourage everyone to do the same until they actually want to pay their partners. Rant over
