Which payout model pays the most?

CPA — highest upfront cash

Fixed commission per qualified action (deposit, registration, purchase). Best for media buyers who need immediate ROI to fund the next campaign. iGaming CPA can reach $200–$650 per depositor in competitive GEOs.

RevShare — unlimited lifetime value

Recurring % of every dollar your referred user spends — forever. A single high-value player can generate passive income for years. Top programs offer 45–60% RevShare. Best for SEO affiliates with long-term traffic assets.

Hybrid — balanced earning

Combines a lower CPA with ongoing RevShare. Covers short-term traffic costs while building a growing passive income stream. Ideal when you have consistent volume and want both cash flow and long-term upside.

How to maximise affiliate earnings

  1. 1

    Negotiate rates directly

    Public rates are a starting point. Once you can demonstrate consistent, quality volume — even 20–50 conversions per week — contact your manager and request a bump. Programs routinely grant 10–30% higher rates for reliable affiliates.

  2. 2

    Target high-value GEOs

    Tier-1 GEOs (UK, Germany, Canada, Australia) carry the highest CPA rates and lifetime player values. Traffic costs are higher but so is ROI on quality placements. Tier-2 markets like Brazil or Poland offer a balance of volume and rate.

  3. 3

    Stack RevShare portfolios

    Every RevShare player you refer continues paying you. Ten players generating $50/month each adds $500/month passive income — compounding year over year. Build RevShare assets alongside CPA campaigns to create an income floor that grows without additional ad spend.

  4. 4

    Use sub-affiliate referrals

    Several programs (MelBet Partners, among others) offer 3–5% sub-affiliate commissions. Referring other active affiliates generates a perpetual income stream with zero traffic cost beyond the initial introduction.
