Before being entitled to start any acquisition campaign for us you should get your account approved and get a written approval from your personal account manager. We may reject your application or terminate this Agreement for breach with immediate effect, if we determine, in our sole discretion, that your marketing methods (including websites, emails, applications, all as indicated in your application) (collectively the “Affiliate Sites”) are not suitable for any reason, including, but not limited to, inclusion of content on your Affiliate Sites that we deem is in any way unlawful, harmful, threatening, defamatory, obscene, harassing, or racially, ethnically or otherwise objectionable, which by way of example only, might mean that it contains (i) sexually explicit, pornographic or obscene content (whether in text or graphics), (ii) speech or images that are offensive, profane, hateful, threatening, harmful, defamatory, libelous, harassing or discriminatory (whether based on race, ethnicity, creed, religion, gender, sexual orientation, physical disability or otherwise), (iii) graphic violence, (iv)politically sensitive or controversial issues (v) any unlawful behavior or conduct; (vi) fake or misleading content, including fake news; or (vii) false claims, testimonials, endorsements or any similar content.

Further, Sharp Connection LTD is strongly committed to the protection of its end-users from all types of malicious, harmful or intrusive software and maintains a zero-tolerance policy in this regard. Therefore, we shall reject your application if we believe, in our sole and absolute discretion, that any of your Affiliate Sites are designed to distribute or promote or allow the distribution or promotion of any spyware, adware, trojans, viruses, worms, spybots, keyloggers or any other form of malware. You shall have no right to appeal any decision to reject your application.

2. Protection of Minors. In accordance with applicable legislation, persons under the age of 18 are not allowed to register with or play on our Sites. Our Site is not designed to attract children or adolescents, and we take certain measures to block underage persons from registering with the Sites. Therefore, we shall reject your application if we determine, in our sole and absolute discretion, that any of your Affiliate Sites are designed to appeal to minors and, as such, are not suitable for the Affiliate Program.

3. Links and Promotions. In the event of your acceptance to the Affiliate Program, we will make available to you, banner advertisements, button links, text links and other links as determined by Sharp Connection LTD which shall link to the Sites (the “Links”), which you may display on your Affiliate Sites, provided you abide by the terms and conditions of this Agreement. In using the Links, you agree that you will cooperate fully with us in order to establish and maintain the Links. If during the term of this Agreement you wish to place the Links on websites other than the Affiliate Sites which you have previously reported to Sharp Connection LTD and which Sharp Connection LTD have approved (“Alternative Sites”), you shall be obligated to request and receive Sharp Connection LTD permission for the placement of the Links on Alternative Sites. You may not modify a Link, unless you have received prior written consent from Sharp Connection LTD to do so. In the event that we determine that your use of any Link is not in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, we shall be entitled to take such measures as to render inoperative the Links used by you. You may not advertise the Sites in any way not approved in advance by Sharp Connection LTD including, without limitation, the use of spam e-mails. In addition to your use of Links you may promote the Sites by means of the publication of bonus codes (each a “Promotion”). Your activities in relation to a Promotion shall be strictly in accordance with Sharp Connection LTD relevant guidelines as such shall exist and be amended from time to time. You may not market or promote the Sites and/or use any of the Links and/or Licensed Materials on any website, software, application or portal which (i) in any way which infringes the intellectual property rights of any third party; and/or (ii) provides any unauthorized access to copyrighted content. In the event that you are in breach of the foregoing we may terminate this Agreement immediately and notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, we may retain any commission otherwise payable to you under this Agreement and we will no longer be liable to pay such commission to you.
Your offering of a Promotion at any time shall be conditional on your receipt of our prior written approval for the Promotion and in the event that you do not receive our approval in relation to a Promotion, you shall not be permitted to receive any commissions generated on account of a Player (as such term is defined below) who has become such a player in any manner connected with the relevant unapproved Promotion. You shall refrain from marketing the Sites in any way which might compete with our own marketing efforts, unless you have received prior written approval from us in such regard. By way of example, the following activities will be considered to be activities, which if undertaken by you, would compete with our own marketing efforts and are prohibited hereunder: (i) the placement of Links on any Internet sites on which we place advertisements for the Sites; and (ii) the promotion of the Sites by you by way of keyword advertising with Internet search engines. Your breach of the foregoing provisions will constitute a breach of this Agreement, and Sharp Connection LTD retains full authority to (i) terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of such breach (without derogating from any of its rights under any applicable law or agreement, including this Agreement, in this regard), and (ii) retain for its own account any commission arising as a result of such competitive activities that would otherwise have accrued to your benefit. In relation to pay-per-click (PPC) and keyword bidding it is hereby made clear that you may not advertise or purchase or register keywords, search terms, search engine ads or other identifiers for use in any search engine, portal, sponsored advertising service or other search or referral service, which are identical or similar to any of the Sharp Connection LTD or any of the Group’s (as defined below) trademarks or trade names from time to time or include the words ‘Sharp Connection LTD and ‘Betiton’’ or any variations of each of these words, or include metatag keywords on the Affiliate Sites which are identical or similar to any Sharp Connection LTD or any of the Group’s trade marks or trade names from time to time. Your breach of the foregoing provisions will constitute a breach of this Agreement, and Sharp Connection LTD retains full authority to (i) terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of such breach and cancel affiliate commissions (without derogating from any of its rights under any applicable law or agreement, including this Agreement, in this regard), and (ii) retain any commission arising as a result of such activities.

4. Referred Players. A “Player” shall mean an Internet user without a prior account with any of the Sites operated by Sharp Connection LTD who accesses any of the Site directly through the Links, creates a new account and makes a deposit on a Site. Neither you nor your relatives are eligible to become Players and should you or they do so you will not be eligible to receive the relevant commission. For this purpose, the term “relative” shall mean any of the following: spouse, parent, partner, child or sibling. The number of Players per individual household computer is strictly limited to one. Sharp Connection LTD ’s measurements and calculations in relation to the number of Players and the relevant Net Revenue and Gross Revenue figures shall be the sole and authoritative tool for such measurements and calculations and shall not be open to review or appeal. We shall make the number of Players and the relevant Gross Revenue and Net Revenue figures available to you through our Affiliate Program information site. To permit accurate tracking, reporting, and commission accrual, you must ensure that the Links between your Affiliate Sites and the Sites are properly formatted throughout the term of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Players who received a first money transfer into their account from a third party shall not be counted for payments associated with click-per-action trackers or with progressive net revenue share schemes, also commonly referred to as “cashback” or “incentive”.

5. Revenue Share based Commissions.

Definitions – for purposes of this Section 5, the following terms have the following meanings:

“Casino Oriented Player”shall mean a Player who first registered to the Site through the Casino tab available on the Site;
“Sports Oriented Player”shall mean a Player who first registered to the Site through the Sports tab available on the Site; and
“Bingo Oriented Player”shall mean a Player who first registered to the Site through the Bingo tab available on the Site.

For the avoidance of doubt, a Player’s orientation for the purpose of determining its remuneration scheme shall be determined by Sharp Connection LTD at its sole discretion based on the section (i.e. Casino, Sport, or Bingo tabs) through which the Player has made his first registration on any of the Site, regardless of the products played by that Player following his registration. Once a Player’s orientation has been determined by Sharp Connection LTD, either as a Sport, Casino, or Bingo Oriented Player, the relevant remuneration scheme shall apply.

The remuneration scheme, such as a share of the Net Revenue generated by the Player from all the Casino, Sports, and Bingo products and services, on an aggregate basis (the “Revenue Share”), Cost-Per-Acquisition (the “CPA”), or a combination of both (the “Hybrid”), shall be discussed with your personal account manager and will be subject for approval by the Sharp Connection LTD management.

Under our CPA remuneration scheme, you will be entitled to receive a certain one-off CPA commission (as shall be separately agreed between us) for any new Player you direct to any of the Sites, provided always that such Player meets our “CPA Criteria”, the principles of which are set out below.

CPA Criteria – unless otherwise agreed between the parties in writing, a Player will be considered as meeting the CPA Criteria, only if such Player: (i) has deposited a certain minimum amount of deposits to its player account (the “CPA Minimum Deposit”); and (ii) for Sport Oriented Players, if such Player has made the CPA Minimum Deposit set out in section (i) above, and provided further that such Player has placed on the Sites a certain minimum sum of settled bets with odds of 1 or above (the “Minimum Settled Bets”). Note that CPA deal must require a certain specific baseline (deposit threshold) to get qualified. On top of the baseline, a first time depositor must at least bet a total amount of 8€ in order for the affiliate to get a qualified CPA commission.

Example : A first time depositor, deposits an amount equal or bigger than the base line required (minimum deposit treshold) but doesn’t place at least 8€ of total bet amount and cashout, the CPA will not be triggered.

Note that as a matter of fairness: Baseline and Minimum bet requirements are accumulative, meaning that baseline can be hit with several deposits for the affiliate to trigger the CPA commission. Same for the minimum bet requirement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, you will not be able to generate any Sport Oriented Players in the United Kingdom, in respect of any Player who registers or provides the CPA Minimum Deposit during either the Grand National or Cheltenham Festival horseracing events (and for the avoidance of doubt we will not pay you any commission with respect to such Players), unless otherwise agreed by us in writing in your commission plan. Further, without limiting the generality of any other term of this Agreement, we reserve the right (i) to change the CPA Minimum Deposit in your commission plan in our discretion during such events; and (ii) to direct you in writing to cease any or all marketing efforts in the United Kingdom during such events, and you shall immediately cease marketing to persons in the United Kingdom for the duration of such events, and we shall not be liable to pay you any commission which would have otherwise been payable to you under this Agreement in respect of the United Kingdom.
Any Affiliates under CPA- or Hybrid- deals shall be subject to a probationary cap of 25 Players, if not otherwise specified by us (the “Probationary Cap“). Once you reach the Probationary Cap in terms of Players generated by you, you shall pause the traffic you are directing to the Site until final validation of the deal by us (“Final Approval“). Please note that if the Probationary Cap is crossed without our Final Approval, we will not pay you any commission with respect to the Players exceeding such Probationary Cap.
Following Final Approval, all CPA- or Hybrid- deals shall be further subject to a daily cap of 10 Players, if not otherwise agreed by us in writing (the “Daily Cap“). Please note that if the Daily Cap is crossed without our written approval in a given day, we will not pay you any commission with respect to the Players exceeding such Daily Cap in the same day.

The CPA Minimum Deposit and Minimum Settled Bets figures, as well as the CPA commission amount, shall be agreed between the parties in writing as part of the application process, and are subject to change by us at any time and from time to time by providing notice to you. For further details please contact us by skype arnaud.serour

6. For these purposes, “Net Revenue”shall mean, as applicable: (1) the monthly sum total of all Players’ purchases of bets, less the winnings of Players from both the Casino and Sports products, plus (2) the total bingo bets multiplied by the Rake (defined below) of the specific bingo room (with (1) and (2) together being the “Gross Revenue“), less any further credits, bonus or promotional amounts given to Players, less any chargeback (including amounts paid as a result of credit card abuse or fraud, or paid to a Player by Sharp Connection LTD to settle a claim involving the allegation of credit card or other abuse or fraud) or any uncollectible revenue attributable to a Player less gaming tax as percentage. Following are the tax deduction for Casino: Germany 5.3% turnover, Austria 40% GGR, UK 25% GGR, Ireland 23% GGR, South Africa 15% GGR, other countries under MGA 2% GGR. In regards to Sport activity tax: Austria 3% turnover, UK 16% GGR, Ireland 3% turnover, South Africa 15% GGR, other countries under MGA 1.5% GGR and less fixed administration fee equal to 25% in Germany and 22% for the rest of the countries, which was accumulated prior to applying such deduction.

“Rake” shall mean the fee charged by us to Players to participate in a particular bingo game.

It is hereby clarified and agreed that applicable local gaming taxes shall be calculated as per the respective Gross Revenue share of each party while the Affiliate share of such tax shall be borne by the Affiliate and deducted from its part of the Gross Revenue at the rate in force on the date payment is due. All commissions shall be paid to you on a monthly basis, within approximately 30 days following the end of each month. Invoices received by us are rotated in a payment cycle which commences on the 1st of every month, and will be finalized by the 20th. Invoices must be received to us by the 10th of every month; failure to follow this procedure will result in the said invoice being settled in the next payment cycle. Payments of commissions shall be made directly to you as per your preferred payment method elected by you as part of your application process. In the event that you provide Sharp Connection LTD . with incorrect or incomplete details in relation to your preferred payment method and Sharp Connection LTD is not able to transfer the commissions to you, Sharp Connection LTD reserves the right to subtract from the commissions due to you an amount of money to reflect the required investigation and additional work created by your having provided incorrect or incomplete details. Sharp Connection LTD shall be entitled to set-off from the amount of commission to be paid to you any associated costs related to the transfer of such commission. In the event that the commission to be paid to you in any calendar month is less than €200 for SEPA bank account or €1000 for swift payment, Switzterland and Isle of Man (the “Minimum Amount”), Sharp Connection LTD shall not be obligated to make the payment until such time as the commission is equal to or greater than the Minimum Amount. Sharp Connection LTD retains the right to review all commissions for possible fraud, where such fraud may be on the part of the Player or on your part. Any incidence of fraud on your part constitutes a breach of this Agreement, and Sharp Connection LTD retains full authority to terminate this Agreement immediately in the event of such breach. Further, in the event that Sharp Connection LTD deems that fraud has occurred, either on your part or on the part of a Player, you shall not be entitled to receive any commissions which have accrued to your benefit at such time whether such commissions were generated through fraud or otherwise.

For the purpose of this Agreement and by way of example only the term “Fraud” shall include, but shall not be limited to:(a) the encouragement by you or a third party of bonus abuse on the part of any Player;(b) a chargeback executed by a Player in relation to their initial deposit; (c) collusion on the part of the player with any other player on the Sites;(d) the opening of an account in breach of the terms of this Agreement; (e) the offering or providing by you or any third party of any unauthorized incentives (financial or otherwise), to potential or existing Players; (f) creating or using a single Link intended to be used by a single player; (g) any other act by you or by a potential Player or by a Player which is reasonably understood to have been committed in bad faith against us and/or any company in our Group (as defined below) regardless of whether or not such action has resulted in any type of harm or damage; (h) an artificial simulation of an installation; (i) the encouragement by you or a third party of simulated installation processes; (j) transfer of the installation process to a third party without previously consulting, notifying and receiving our prior written approval; (h) traffic detected by our partner and plateform provider Aspire Global and its Risk Department.

In the event that the commission for any calendar month results in a negative amount, such negative amount shall be applied to the commission calculation, and set-off against future positive commission amounts, in the next calendar months, until the negative balance has been fully extinguished. You are urged to provide accurate details in regard to the manner and information relating to your preferred method of receiving commissions and Sharp Connection LTD shall not be held liable for your delayed receipt of commissions or money transfer to the details provided in your account due to your provision of inaccurate details. We reserve the right to modify these Terms and Conditions and, thus, to amend this agreement between us at any time.
