Yes, Cassava, and yes they have a bad reputation. But that is from some years ago. I have been with them for six years and never had an issue. Affutd on the other hand are still ripping off affiliates.
TBH just because a program has never scammed doesn't mean it never will. The best way to avoid getting ripped off is to go for cpa payments if you can.

If you're looking for gambling affiliates I'd go for the Poker sector. Bet365 are good and I haven't had problems with 888, what was the scam?
I have had many of issues with the and I certainly would not taint the name of my own websites by promoting their shyte. And it is not all in the past.
Yes I would agree Bet365 are a good site and affiliate program. You get a good player sticking rate with them.
Fair enough. I can only go by my own experience.
I don't like the Bet365 terms, unfortunately.

Hey mdsurf,
I am a partner in a gaming affiliate. As a broker, we actually receive a better net revenue rate than people who actually deal directly with the gaming site. Obviously our business model is to give you a better rate than dealing with the site and keep a small %.
We represent over 15 gaming sites and have been around for over 10 years (this means we pay affiliates-- lol). Our primary focus is poker which is probably lucrative lifetime revenue sharing deals, but we do also have several casino and sports book sites. We're familiar with most of the tax and legal issues which arise across the countries.
I'd be glad to give you some pointers. Obviously it would be nice if you were interested in our products but even if you decided to go with another product I'm always down for helping people because I've found it produces general good will in the industry and produces referrals even if I can't help you specifically.
About the other comments:
888 -- We carry 888 but they only offer CPA on poker, and their affiliate rates are low. I feel there are other products which are better for the consumer and also produces more net rev. However if you are just convinced 888 is the product for you, there are other skins under 888 which are the exact same network software (basicly a 888 license) which pay better net revenue.
Bet365- Excellent skin-- However again, you will get a better rate going through a master affiliate/broker like us than going to the site.
Also its important in gaming to be mindful of the affiliate and network rules when advertising, breaking these rules are probably more severe than in other types of affiliate system because these networks can levy fines on the site. Basically when a site gets fined, they will take it out on the affiliate and this usually results in losing all of your future commissions on previously acquired clients.

there is not the best but a list of many very good. It depends if you are focused on one section (sports or casino or poker). If you are interested about all, of course you can find a lot. You can make decision to have few or have more. About what I read in this section, I see that all that post don't have experience and they say you only about they direct experiences not about the brand. I agree with philvegasone but not about severe rules and taking out on affiliate if result in losing... sounds strange... maybe its network works in such manner... Need always to read carefully terms and conditions and after, need to choose...

I'm most familiar with poker, but believe me there is definitely severe penalties. One time we were caught making an offer which was not sanctioned by the gaming network, this costs the site we were working with 10,000 USD. Of which we ended up paying 1/2 the costs (5000 USD) to the site to keep our affiliate with that site.
One of the large affiliates we know whos poker players produce around 20 million gross revenue a year for the gaming sites was completely banned off ongame ("for life" although actually about 7 years later he finally got them to take him back).
I've gotten cease and desist from sites and networks for using "non-sanctioned or illegal spamming techniques" in emails.
Not trying to scare people but like annihuls said, definately read the terms, and think carefully if you break them. Now that being said, the terms are usually ridiculas so you got to kinda learn where and when you can break them and how. Some areas are NO GO, and other areas they won't enforce.
I can back this up, and it's especially true with Ongame network skins and where rakeback is involved. During the few years that I managed an ongame skin we got hit by multiple $5k and $10k fines and, needless to say, whenever it was an affiliate whose actions resulted in a fine we took it off their past and future earnings (as I'm sure all other operators out there do).
There are few CPA one time payment poker networks.
Under the table rakeback is still very popular, especially with Stars/FTP having the monopoly they have.
If you are looking for poker deals, the best thing to do is to get in touch with someone who runs rakeback site, you can workout a deal with them. Try places like 2+2 forums. Or just try some of the popular rakeback sites like raketherake.com , pokervip.com they all have referral programs.
