8.1 The Commission structure, unless otherwise agreed in writing by the parties in accordance with paragraph 9.11, shall be as follows:

New Customer/month	Affiliate’s Net Revenue share
0-5	25%
6-15	30%
16-35	35%
36+	40%

8.2 Commission shall be paid by the Company to the Affiliate in accordance with the percentage thresholds set out in the table at paragraph 8.1, which shall be dependent on the number of New Customers which sign up to the Operators Website via the Affiliate Website in accordance the Agreement in that relevant calendar month.

9 Payment

9.1 The Company shall pay the Affiliate the Commission. The Commission shall be deemed to be inclusive of value added tax and all other applicable taxes.

9.2 The Commission is calculated at the end of each calendar month and payments shall be made between the 5th-10th of the following calendar month, provided that the amount due exceeds €50 (the “Minimum Threshold”) or equivalent. If the balance due is less than the Minimum Threshold, it shall be accumulated and carried over to the following month and shall be payable when the total Commissions collectively exceeds the Minimum Threshold.

9.3 Payment of the Commission shall be made in accordance with the payment method chosen by the Affiliate in the Affiliate Application. If an error is made in the calculation of the Commission, the Company reserves the right to correct such calculation at any time and will promptly pay out any underpayment or reclaim overpayment made to the Affiliate on becoming aware of such error.

9.4 High Roller policy: In the event that a Customer has obtained a cumulative win of 7,000 Euros on any of the Operator’s Websites in any given calendar month, such Customer shall be deemed a High Roller. Where the Commission earned from an Affiliate in relation to a High Roller/(s) is a negative amount in any given calendar month, we shall have the right to carry forward the negative amount and offset it against future Commission generated under such Customer until such negative Commission has been fully set off against future positive Commission. If there is more than one High Roller, the negative balance carried forward will be split proportionally between them.

9.5 The Affiliate’s acceptance of the payment of the Commission shall be deemed to constitute the full and final settlement of the balance due for the relevant period.

9.6 If the Affiliate disagrees with the balance due as reported, it shall notify the Company in writing within thirty (30) days of the date of receipt of the Commission and state the reasons of the disagreement. Failure to notify the Company within the prescribed time limit shall be deemed to be considered as an irrevocable acknowledgment of the balance due for the period indicated.

9.7 The Company’s decision on the attribution of a New Customer to the Affiliate shall be final and binding.

9.8 The Company may in its sole discretion withhold the payment of any balance to the Affiliate for up to one hundred-and-eighty (180) days if the Company needs to investigate and verify that the relevant transactions comply with the provisions of the Agreement.

9.9 No payment shall be due if the Company has reasons to believe that the traffic generated by the Affiliate is illegal or is in breach of any of the provisions of the Agreement, or is otherwise “bad traffic”.

9.10 The Affiliate agrees to return all Commissions received based on fraudulent or falsified transactions and indemnify the Company for all costs and losses incurred in relation to such transactions (including, but without limitation, legal fees and costs).

9.11 The Company reserves the right to set limits for a minimum level of activity on an Affiliate’s Account. The Company shall notify the Affiliate of any such threshold at the time of accepting the Affiliate’s Application and opening the Affiliate’s Account. Such minimum activity levels will be continuously reviewed and the Company reserves the right to close any Account that does not reach the limit. Such limit shall not be unreasonably high and basically reflect the intention of avoiding accounts where the revenue does not cover the Company’s internal costs for maintaining the Account and the payout procedure.

9.12 The Affiliate may, at the sole discretion of the Company, be provided with the opportunity to restructure its commission structure. Examples of alternative commission structures could include a Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) Module. However, and for the avoidance of doubt, only one type of commission structure for the same product may be applied at the same time. Therefore, once an Affiliate accepts the Company’s offer to apply a new commission structure, different to the standard Commission Structure detailed in the Agreement, the Affiliate hereby agrees and understands that the new proposed commission structure shall replace his existing commission structure in its entirety. Notwithstanding the above, the Affiliate’s obligations assumed under the Agreement will still continue to apply to the Affiliate even if a new commission structure is applicable.

9.13 The Affiliate shall have the sole responsibility to pay any and all taxes, levies, fees, charges and any other money payable or due both locally and abroad (if any) to any tax authority, department or other competent entity as a result of the compensation generated under the Agreement. The Company shall under no circumstances whatsoever be held liable for any such amounts unpaid but found to be due by the Affiliate and the Affiliate shall indemnify the Company in that regard.

10 Affiliate Website(s) and the Links

10.1 The Affiliate expressly acknowledges and agrees that the use of the Internet and the Affiliate Program is at the Affiliate’s own risk. The Company makes no guarantee in relation to the accessibility of the Operator Websites at any particular time or any particular location and the Company shall not be liable for any Commission or any other payments in the event that a New Customer is prevented from signing up as a result of any such issues with access to the Operator’s Website.

10.2 During the term of the Agreement, the Links shall be prominently displayed on the Affiliate Website(s) in accordance with what is agreed between the Company and the Affiliate.
