For the avoidance of doubt, an internet user shall not qualify as a Lead for a Site if that user has previously registered an account with that Site.

Such players shall not, however, be counted when calculating Commission associated with cost-per-action ("CPA") trackers or hybrid trackers with a CPA component and shall not contribute to any tranche associated with progressive revenue share schemes.

4.3 A "Money Player" is an internet user that qualifies as a Lead in accordance with clause 4.1 above, and in addition:

(i) in respect of CPA trackers and where there is a CPA component in a hybrid tracker: (i) is promptly verified and approved by the Company in accordance with all applicable regulatory requirements (including any applicable age or ID verification); and (ii) meets any other qualification criteria determined by the Company, that differs per territory and per Site, which is based on the minimum deposit that such person makes into their account with the relevant Site and/or the minimum number of bets made by such person on the relevant Site; or

4.4 Neither you nor any of your relatives (or where the person entering into this Agreement is a legal entity, neither the directors, officers nor employees of such company or the relatives of such individuals) are eligible to become Leads or Money Players. Should you or any of your relatives attempt to do so the Company may terminate this Agreement and retain all Commissions otherwise payable to you. For the purposes of this clause, the term "relative" shall mean any of the following: spouse, partner, parent, child, or sibling.

4.5 The number of Leads per individual household computer, tablet device and mobile device is strictly limited to one.

4.6 You acknowledge and accept that the Company's calculation of the number of Money Players and amount of Net Revenue shall be the sole and authoritative measurement and shall not be open to review or appeal. The Company shall notify you of the number of Money Players and amount of Net Revenue through the 888 Africa Affiliate Site that is located at https://partners.888africa.com. It should be noted that the Affiliates Site is intended for informational purposes only, on an "as-is" basis, and is not to be relied upon for any other purpose, including calculation of Commission as it is provided on a dynamic basis. In case of discrepancy between the data provided through the Affiliates Site and the Company's records, the Company's records shall have priority.

4.7 To ensure accurate tracking, reporting, and Commission accrual, you are responsible for ensuring that the Links between your Affiliate Websites and the Sites are properly formatted throughout the term of this Agreement.

5 Commission

5.1 The commission payable to you under this Agreement is as set out at https://partners.888africa.com (the "Commission"), and may be modified in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. If the scheme that applies includes a revenue share component, you will receive the applicable share of Net Revenue

5.2 “Net Revenue” means the total of Stakes less winnings, adjusted for bonuses, local gaming taxes, chargebacks and administration fees. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall be under no obligation to pay any Commission with respect to Money Players who are at any time blocked or suspended by the Company for any reason (including for reasons of fraud or any failure to validate the end-user account). However, for the purposes of calculating the Net Revenue, the Company may still deduct any or all charges or expenses attributable to blocked or suspended Money Players.

5.3 You acknowledge and agree that a different payment scheme may apply to other affiliates who are already being paid by the Company in accordance with an older or alternative payment scheme or in other particular cases as determined at the Company's sole discretion from time to time.

5.4 Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement, any Commission containing a revenue share component that relates to revenues generated on the Betting Sites shall only be payable for a maximum period of 12 months from the date on which the applicable internet user qualifies as a Lead and in any event only during the term of this Agreement.

5.5 You shall be solely liable for any tax, charge, or levy imposed on you in respect of your receipt of any sum due and payable under this Agreement by the relevant authority, and all amounts due and payable by the Company to you hereunder are inclusive of any VAT, tax, charge or levy which may be imposed on such payment and the Company shall be under no obligation to increase such payment in the event such tax becomes applicable.

Any such amount deducted and withheld by the Company shall be deemed paid to you for all purposes hereunder.

5.7 In consideration of your provision of the marketing services in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, the Company shall pay you the Commission on a monthly basis, within approximately 30 days after the end of each calendar month. Payments of Commission shall be made directly to you as per your preferred payment method from an approved list of payment methods and to the account detailed by you as part of your application process (the "Payment Account"). It is your responsibility to ensure that the details provided by you are both accurate and complete and the Company will have no obligation whatsoever to verify the accuracy and completeness of such details. In the event that you provide the Company with incorrect or incomplete details or you have failed to update your details and as a result, your Commission is paid to an incorrect Payment Account, the Company shall cease to be liable to you for any such Commission. Without derogating from the foregoing, if the Company is not able to transfer the Commission to you, the Company reserves the right to deduct from the Commission a reasonable amount to reflect the required investigation and additional work including without limitation the administrative burden created by your having provided incorrect or incomplete details. Should the Company not be able to transfer any Commission to you for 6 consecutive months as a result of any incomplete or incorrect details of your Payment Account, or for any other reason beyond the control of the Company, the Company reserves the right to withhold any such Commission and will no longer be liable to pay such Commission.

5.8 The Company reserves the right to request that you provide the Company with written documentation (such as for example a current bank statement with respect to payment to a bank account) verifying all your beneficiaries and details of your Payment Account at any time, including without limitation upon registration, to comply with the Company's policies with regards to its legal and regulatory obligations or and when you make any change to your Payment Account. The Company is not obliged to make any payments until verification is completed to its satisfaction. If the Company believes at its sole discretion that you have failed to provide it with such verification, the Company retains the right to terminate this Agreement immediately and you shall not be entitled to receive any Commission which has accrued to your benefit up until such time or thereafter.

5.9 The Company reserves the right to take action against you and/or your Money Players should you or any Links used by you, or Money Players show patterns of manipulating and/or abusing the 888 Africa Affiliate Scheme in any way whatsoever. If the Company determines that such conduct is being undertaken, it may withhold and keep any Commission payments that would have otherwise been payable to you under this Agreement and terminate this Agreement with immediate effect.

5.10 Where Commission is payable on a revenue share basis as set out above, the Company will not apply a negative balance carry-over policy (the "Policy"). The Policy provides that: (i) in calculating the total Commission amount owed to you in a calendar month, the Company shall calculate all Commissions, both positive and negative, generated by Money Players via the Sites; and (ii) if at the conclusion of a calendar month the Commission generated by Money Players via the Sites is a negative amount, the Company shall consider such negative amount from the Commission calculation as zero.

5.11 The Company will generally apply the Policy to its brand website, however, it may not do so at its sole discretion in certain cases, including without limitation, in the event that you have failed to generate any new Leads for a period of three (3) months or more.

5.12 The Company hereby retains the right to convert the commission scheme by which you are, have been, or will be paid.

5.13 The Company 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.

5.14 If the Commission to be paid to you in any calendar month is less than $100 (the "Minimum Amount"), the Company shall not be obliged to make the payment to you and may postpone payment of this amount and combine this with a payment for a subsequent month(s) until such time as the total Commission is equal to or greater than the Minimum Amount.

5.15 The Company reserves the right to reduce your Commission relating to a specific Site in the event that you fail to generate any Leads on such Site or through an account associated with such Site, for any three (3) consecutive calendar months.

5.16 The Company retains the right to review your activity under this Agreement for possible fraud, whether such fraud is on your part, the part of a Lead or Money Player, or the part of a Sub-Affiliate. Any review period will not exceed 180 days. During this review period, the Company shall have the right to withhold any Commission otherwise payable to you. Any incidence of fraud on your part (or the part of a Lead, Money Player, or Sub-Affiliate) constitutes a breach of this Agreement. Any incidence of fraud constitutes a breach by you of the Agreement and the Company retains the right to terminate this Agreement immediately and retain all Commission otherwise payable to you and will no longer be liable to pay such Commission to you. The Company also retains the right to set off from future Commissions payable to you any amounts already received by you which can be shown to have been generated by fraud.

5.17 For the purpose of this Agreement and by way of example only, the term "fraud" shall include, but shall not be limited to: (i) the encouragement by you or a third party of bonus abuse on the part of the Money Players; (ii) a chargeback executed by a Money Player in relation to their initial deposit; (iii) collusion on the part of the Money Player with any other player on the Sites or any website owned and/or operated by a Group Company; (iv) the opening of an account in breach of the terms of this Agreement; (v) the offering or providing by you or any third party of any unauthorised incentives (financial or otherwise), to potential or existing Money Players; (vi) creating or using a single Link intended to be used by a single Lead; (vii) any use by you or a potential Money Player or a Money Player of any software program, robot or external aid, which is endowed with artificial intelligence, to play real money games on the Site; and (viii) any other act by you or by a Money Player which is reasonably understood to have been committed in bad faith against the Company regardless of whether or not such action has resulted in any type of harm or damage to the Company. In the event of a suspected activity on your part (based for example, on the detection of numerous Affiliate serials with only one or very few accounts on each), the Company shall have the right to immediately block your account and forfeit any past and future Commissions which have accrued to your benefit.

5.18 You acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not be liable to pay to you any amounts which relate to revenues generated from Money Players from any products or services provided by the Company or any of its affiliated entities or commercial partners other than the sport and casino products which you advertise via the Links. The Company shall not be liable to you for any amounts which relate to revenues generated from activity relating to any user account other than the user account registered with the particular Site promoted by you in which the respective user qualified as a Lead and Money Player.

5.19 Your affiliate account is solely for your benefit. You shall not allow any third party to use your account, password, or identity to access or use the 888 Africa Affiliate Scheme and you shall be fully responsible for any activities undertaken on your account by a third party. You will not reveal your account username or password to any person and you shall take all steps to ensure that such details are not revealed to any person. You shall inform the Company immediately if you suspect that your account is being misused by a third party and/or any third party has access to your account username or password. For the avoidance of doubt, the Company shall not be liable for any activities undertaken on your account by a third party or for any damages that may arise therefrom.

5.20 The Company reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to immediately cease any or all marketing efforts in certain jurisdictions and you shall immediately cease marketing to persons in such jurisdictions. The Company will not be liable to pay you any Commission which would have otherwise been payable to you under this Agreement in respect of such jurisdictions.
