Referral bonus system is actually an advertisement system. It is the strongest advertisement system employed by gambling companies. This means that some parts of the money the company should be burning on promotions is channeled to referral bonuses. In a real life it is not a waste of time and according to Paxmao, it is not a favour the gambling company is doing for you. It is the reward of work done and people who knows how to convince others to play in their favourite platforms benefits from this.

Affiliate Marketing is one powerful marketing tool in online business for many companies. What online casinos did was to take it to the next level by giving a high percentage of referral bonuses than any other business? This is the only reason why everyone wants to venture into this business. There has been a rise of influencers who are trying to promote an online gambling platform as they are actually targeting the referral bonus. My opinion is that in the AI anyone can become an affiliate marketer for a casino if they have a plan in placed.

It is a shame that bonuses are not really considered seriously by the sites, as if they were something optional or just a gesture of good-will. A bonus is an agreement for someone influencing their friends or other people and promoting you image. That is not free and it takes time so if the site then scams or re-thinks is reason enough to provide public feedback and negative trust.
You are right the referral bonuses are payments for individual efforts at the end of the month and the casino is not in any way doing you a favour and they are paying you for your efforts because is not an easy task to build a referee network and they must also be actively watered for you to be able to get a good amount in referral earnings and commission and this is more also about teamwork.

So referral system takes a lot of participants but the only way the casino may do play a favour is when the bonus comes in the form of a welcome bonus,  that way the casino is doing the player a favour but even at that casino still imposes higher wagering requirements on welcome bonuses.

There is this saying that you can force a horse to a river but can't force it to drink from the river and same also applies here in referral bonuses as you can get one to use a particular casino and also your referral code or link but might not get to deposit or even wager and most of the casino requires you to get those you refer to first register, make deposit and then wager before one could claim these bonuses and if you'll agree with me that isn't an easy task especially in a country like mine.
More reasons why it shouldn't be considered a waste of time because it varies with different gambling sites therefore your statement shouldn't be generalised because there are still some recommendable platforms I know that offers good referral bonuses as well as double the amount of deposit upon registration.
 However claiming of referrals bonus is optional, and shouldn't be considered an issue because I've not seem or heard any sites that's made referral compulsory condition because this bookies are aware that not everyone would have a good referral strategy or would be interested in the bonuses that comes with it, so if you fall under such category it's best you just avoid it and not conclude it's a waste of time, cause there are several people that in need of such bonuses likewise there are good sites that offers good services when it comes to referrals, however what you might find very difficult to tackle could seem less stressful and easy to the next person, it just requires you have be very strategic and social media has made it more easier to be able to attract and convince people to participate in this, most times all you need to do is to copy your referral link and post on your various social media pages or groups.

I got your points  very straight mate but if you don't mind, can you atleast list any of this bookies which reference to their terms of referral bonuses?
If yes then I will be so glad and extremely  dedicated to reading your article about it because I personally would love to try those bookies as well but for the main time, I'm not against referral bonuses but the truth  is that the terms of claiming  this bonuses are extremely  too difficult and almost impossible  to claim because how on earth will I bring in people and after they deposit and wager, I will also be required to wager the bonus I received before being able to claim those bonuses?
To me this like just chasing the clouds and I personally wouldn't have to be involved with referral  bonuses  no more.

It is a shame that bonuses are not really considered seriously by the sites, as if they were something optional or just a gesture of good-will.

I'm sorry to say but referral bonuses are typically optional and very much dependent on the participants but where I have issues with the bookies is the fact that these bonuses seems almost impossible  to claim especially  for the common managed player and should be reviewed

For shady sites then it might happen but for those legit ones then they would definitely be paying up if you do able to hook up someone to play on the site and would make out some deposit. Yes, its true that the amount  might not really be that so big or bonus but its better rather than on having nothing at all. We know that there would really be those people who would really be liking to affiliate or would really be spreading out
their links just for them to introduce the site on where they're playing on. Not all would really be that so serious about it because inviting someone is really that pain in the ass.

Ref bonus or affiliate bonuses arent really that something big on which other people would really be having those kind of false assumptions on how big it might be. If you do have tons of
people had been invited then it might be.

Do you know why many people think that affiliate programs do not work and they are a waste of time! Because they tried it and failed to gain any profit from it.
They failed but this is not because those programs do not work, rather, it's because the don't know how to make them work.
Most of them share their links on popular groups, forums.. but they forget that most of the followers of those groups are not interested in gambling. They Wil simply skip your link and even if some of them will click on the link and register on the casino, only one or two will make a deposit.
But if you target a gambling community, even if it's smaller in numbers, then you will have better chances to get more loyal referrals
So many people fail in running affiliate programs, and it's because they haven't found a method that works for them. They only know how to spread their affiliate links on forums, popular groups, or social media, but they may not have found good ways to promote, so they can't make money from affiliate programs. It will depend on what you want to promote, where you share the affiliate link, and what methods you can use. One has to keep trying and looking for ways that are different from others so that it can make them successful in affiliate programs.

Maybe this is really what we have to do, keep trying. I, for one, have dropped the idea years ago, but seeing your post I started thinking "Why not?". I have almost 3k followers on twitter so I can try to spread my ref link. But this is what happened:

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/07/10/ZTIaC.png

I tried several times with the same result. Maybe twitter won't allow you to tweet your ref link? After adding a space here "https: //freebitco.in/~" it worked, but then it's not exactly a link, right? There are 6 views in the first 5 minutes. Let's see how it turns out.

You may add your referral link in PROFILE page. There you get an option to add WEBSITE link. Just put your desired link there and it'll be shown in your profile page. If you share your link via on that sites referral share button, it'll be shown up on twitter.

You can use a redirect link that can hide your referral link so that Twitter allows it. I heard some friends use it on social media such as Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram. But I didn't try it because I don't have many followers like you.

Getting 6 views in the first 5 minutes is good so that you can repeat it to spread your affiliate links for the next few days. But remember that using affiliate threads requires finding ways that work for you, so you need to try different ways until you succeed. Good luck.

Referral bonuses is ain't such of a waste of time if you have a good number of audience in your social media handles and you know how to make good use of those followers to your advantage by virtue of good marketing strategy employed. If you're a good influencer promoting any brand won't be of difficult same as getting your bonuses, cause the more referrals you bring in the more bonuses accruing to you.

However, there are persons that are not good at marketing but for the bonus attached they struggle to get along in doing it only to end up not working out well, maybe not being able to meet target within the timeframe given, it then now seem like the referral bonuses chase is nothing but a waste of time.

That is the exactly the point why casino link their payouts to the amount of money gambled by your referees and not only to the number of people that sign up at the casino through your link. In case the casino would only reward how many people you bring to the casino, without taking into consideration the amount each gambler plays for. Then there would be no real need to target a specific group of people that are interested in gambling. You could ask anybody to only sigh up one time through your link and never actually gamble at the casino. The casino is not going to make any money through that and wouldn't reward us for the referrals. That is why it’s so important we bring people to the casino actually want to gamble and can afford to spend money at the tables. For people that don't have a big presence in social media or are streamers, it might be hard to attract a largen number of referrals to a casino. For me it only worked out to bring some of my friends to a casino where I already know before that they are going to gamble more regularly. If you play on multiple different casinos then you refer your friend to one casino, and let him refer you to another casino so you both can profit from it. Or you could just split all the rewards you get from the referral, which would give another incentive for your friends to gambler through your links.

If you have a good skill in affiliate marketing, you will not see it as a waste of time.

For people who have taken affiliated marketing to the next level, referral bonus will never be considered a waste for them, because they have worked their self out in other to build a system where they have lot of members waiting for them to just drop a link which they could follow and register either airdrop or gambling bonus. For that of the gambling those who have enough followers to some point those gambling site pays them for their referral without necessarily demanding them to wager all the amount before they could be able to withdraw their funds, in such cases referral might not be a complete waste of time but a great opportunity for affiliates Marketer's to earn from gambling platforms.

I don't know what level one will need to attain before they would allow them withdraw  their referral  bonuses without letting them.wager it first because it will be an exciting one if it was just possible to withdraw referral  bonuses  without having to wager them.
Referral  bonuses  aren't waste of time and one thing we must know is that, nothing good comes easy and referral  bonuses aren't exempted as it also requires alot of work and effort for one to claim referral  bonuses. Anyone wanting to get involved in claiming  this bonuses should be aware that  they aren't free and efforts must be put into it .

The second factor that may affect his earnings also is when the casino decides to lower the amount in percentage payable to referral rewards because of included in their terms and conditions that the casino has the final say as to what the commission will be at the end of the month.
A reduction in the user's referral commission is something I think we have had and discussed about it some on this forum and this board some time ago...

The thing is, like we always say here most of the time, one thing that is constant in life is change "we must understand there was never a time a company made it permanently impossible to adjust their affiliate/referral commission system, just like gambling, sharing referral links should never be considered a major source of income, else, when such a thing happens that the casino decides to lower their commission due to maybe having  enough customers already, the user who is involved might end up going from one casino to the other in search of greener pasture on casino referral, this is not ideal in my honest opinion.

I use to know one guy who have to share a good percent of his monthly earning on his downline so that their can wager more and he earn more income, and this helped the ops to generate a huge referral commission every month but the amount he earns differs monthly and the factors range from how much active wager he accumulates and the activeness of his downlines.

The second factor that may affect his earnings also is when the casino decides to lower the amount in percentage payable to referral rewards because of included in their terms and conditions that the casino has the final say as to what the commission will be at the end of the month.

There is no assurance of financial gain while using affiliate marketing. Those who dismiss it as useless because of past failures are blind to the system's complexities. Spreading affiliate links around like wildfire is like an archer shooting blind and then blaming his bow when none of his arrows strike their objectives.

If the bow isnt producing the desired results, maybe the archer should rethink their technique instead of blaming the tool. True, the results of marketing to a group that isnt interested will be less than stellar. The outcomes will be much improved if you carefully target a smaller, engaged community. Still, if you only consider this aspect, you're missing out on something crucial: the offering's quality. No matter how favorable an audience may be toward a given category, conversion rates will remain low if the product or service itself fails to excite or convince them. Affiliate marketing success requires matching a desirable target demographic with a valuable product or service.

Good marketing skills must be possessed by someone who wants to become an affiliate of a site. And not many people have that ability. Some time ago, I followed an influencer on his social media, he was a person who rose because of some of his joke content. After a while I followed him, and when I saw the stories he made on his social media, I found out that he was also an influencer promoting a gambling site, and I noticed he was getting a lot of new users. One of the things he did was that when someone won on the site he was promoting he made a new user win through his story too, well from there I saw that it was a form of strategy he did by taking advantage of someone's victory, indirectly some people might be more interested and register on the references he spread.


But then we must know that an affiliate program comes with a lot of tasks because sometimes for you to be able to earn a good amount in your affiliate commission you need to have wagered and also those who registered with your referral code need to have wagered a lot during the space of time.
Yes indeed, one of the conditions for referral bonuses to enter our wallet is that they (the referred) must deposit some money and must play, otherwise, no matter how many new users we invite it will not produce anything. But usually in gambling, most people who sign up will play and that's what always happens. I rarely or never see someone who signs up on a gambling site but they don't play at all. At least they deposit once and play there.



"Marketing skills" are essential for affiliate marketers. Not everyone can play this game, and that's okay. Isn't it fascinating how social media influencers have perfected their promotional tactics? The influencer you mentioned uses humor to garner followers and then gently promotes gambling websites (an fascinating, if unethical, strategy). Yes, his marketing skills are unique. Your observation that he capitalizes on new winners to attract users is a common approach. It worked this time, but what about the consequences? What happens when wins stop? What happens when new users enticed by easy wins lose? These questions tarnish this "strategy."
Everything always has a consequence, and it cannot be eliminated in any case.
Then he took advantage of new users who won big and posted it on his social media. I'm also pretty sure a lot of people signed up and lost on the site he was promoting, but he never made the same story on his social media.
You see, every influencer who promotes something will always bring up the positives, like in this case the win. they never bring up the negatives that make people not interested in something they promote.
Influencers are people who are indifferent to others, as long as they can make a profit.
