Carbon Affiliate Program

Yo Yo Yo my homie affiliates ! So you want to know just profitable the affiliate program is over at PDC Poker/ Carbon Poker. Well this page will focus solely on the Carbon Poker Affiliate Program, more precisely on the revenue share or MGR program. You may not know that Carbon Poker offers one of the highest revenue share programs that you will find anywhere accross the world wide web... 40 %, with no negative carry over. On top of this, because the Carbon client offers casino games, the 40 % extends to sidegames. Our results show that on average more income will come from the sidegames than from actual poker play. So when you are advertising the carbon poker room, we recommend that you also promote the blackjack, roulette and other casino games available.

Rev Share Over CPA

To be honest, the value proposition of the carbon poker revenue share program seems unequaled. Usually, only the top tier affiliates can have percentages as high as 40%. The more players you refer, the higher this percentage is. We'll let you know why we prefer revenue share over CPA. MGR is a win win proposition for the casino and you - and this is what affiliating is all about when you think about. It's just good business. If you refer horrendus players to Carbon Poker that deposit 25 dollars at a time and are bonus freaks do you deserve a high CPA ? No of course not, it's all about sharing a piece of the poker pie. On top of this, you need to learn how to think long term. If you're referring 15 players a month to a room and all of a sudden you lose your rankings in Google due to some penalty or algorithm refinement your income will plumet to 0. If you were on MGR and had a decent player base, these players can keep on raking for a long long time. Your bottom line will still be affected but your business will still be profitable so to speak. Here is perhaps the biggest reason to switch to MGR though. If you use CPA your payout will always be capped. You may think, who cares / what's the big deal ? After all if you have a CPA program of 200 dollars and you refer crappy microstakes players, you will be making a nice profit. The problem is that you will never profit from a big money player, or a "whale". If you refer a semi-professional who players high stakes no limit and have a fixed CPA you can be passing on thousands and thousands of dollars in equity a month for a very long time. Lastly, the top reason we prefer MGR is the excitement factor. You're also trying to find that big player and striving to send quality players to the poker rooms. In our mind, this is what poker affiliating is all about - providing and referring value to poker sites. This is what you do to make a living.

Carbon Poker Player Pofile

So what kind of player does Carbon Poker attract ? Well, once thing you need to know is that Carbon Poker has world class freeroll tournaments. Because of this a lot of your sign-ups will never materialize as real money players (or RMPs) because players don't have bankrolls. You can decide whether to target these players or avoid them, it is your call. As part of a balanced affiliate approach we recommend referring a lot of these players. Although you may not reap immediate rewards from your efforts, long term some of these players will get jobs/ bankrolls and start depositing. If you have fifteen thousand of these freerollers it will definitely be a long term asset. The sencond type of player are the microstakes players (very common). These players deposit between 25 and 75 dollars and will be your bread of butter along with the freerollers. Usually they are inexperienced players and so can't guarantee a long term source of income. On top of this they are often susceptibe to tilt and will often lose their entire bankroll on a couple of hands of blackjacks. These players still have value, but life time on rev share they are in the low double digit range, although a dedicated and serious players can generate more than 100 dollars. The recreational player who has disposable income. Usually these players have jobs and like to play at the small stakes. They often have poor bankroll management skills and deposit from 100 to 400 dollar at a time. These players are very valuable and can generate hundreds of dollars lifetime. I've had some of these generate more than 100 a day, but because these players have bad BK management, they often go bust soon. This class of player is actually is more and more prevalent and makes promoting carbon poker worthwile by itself. The final class are the solid poker players that get rakeback and deposit 500 dollars at a time. Believe it or not, there a decent number of these that play at Carbon Poker and also dabble in the sidegames, making the carbon affiliate program very profitable indeed.
