Way back in the day, anyone could enter the rakeback market.  All you needed was an excel spreadsheet, an aptitude with PM’ing, and some hustle and drive.  Back then, rakeback providers had a relationship with their customers.  If the customer needed something, the affiliate would deliver.

It changed somewhere along the line.  It changed because players became focused on the promotional money they were eligible for.  While sites like Raketracker focused on customer service and were less concerned about sheer volume, sites like RaketheRake poured money into promotions.  Players may or may not realize that freeroll promotions are designed to sign-up new players and rake races are designed to reward the highest generating players.  Affiliates are aware of this.

But what happens to the mid-generating player in the middle?  He thrives with a rakeback relationship because of personal attention and customer service.

Ultimately, a quality rakeback site must have all of the above elements.  Personal attention, customer service, promotions - both freerolls and rake races, as well as on-time payments, stats, room selection, good affiliate website, and easy sign-up.

That’s why Poker Affiliate Solutions offers its publishers the ability to instantly offer $40,000 in promotions.  In September, it will be significantly more.  That way, an affiliate with only one or two players signed-up can be part of a huge promotional series, yet still give the personal attention the player needs.

In working with Poker Affiliate Solutions, you can publish poker room offers in three different ways.

1. Using a subdomain of Poker Affiliate Solutions.

When signing-up with us, you can choose to have a .pokeraffiliatesolutions.com website. You can name it whatever you choose, we host it, and you manage it through the backend stats area and content management system. This is a fully functional rakeback site that you can refer players to and be paid for the revenue they generate.  Here is an example.

2. Using a subdomain from your existing site.

If you have an existing poker related or rakeback site, the PAS system allows you to automatically set-up your rakeback site to exist at http://rakeback.yoursite.com. Note, there is no www and you can substitute any term you want for “rakeback”.

In order to have your rakeback site match the look and feel of your existing site, you need to contact us to make sure our design team is aware of the work that needs to be done. Our turnaround time on this matching work is between 24 hours and one week.

If this is the method you choose, you will also need to set-up a subdomain. You can get the instructions for this on our How It Works page. Instructions are also found immediately after you sign-up. When using a subdomain, it is up to you to obtain hosting for your main site.

Two examples of a subdomain in use are Deuces Cracked rakeback and Leggo Poker rakeback.

It is up to you how you drive traffic to your rakeback site located on your subdomain. Leggo Poker’s main site is an excellent example of how to do this.

3. Using a Full Domain Name

Any domain name you own can be set-up to be your rakeback site. It is simply a matter of pointing the domain to the correct nameservers.

Under this option, we host your entire site and you make changes to it via our Content Management System.

Instructions for pointing your nameservers can be found after you sign-up.

An example of a partner using a full domain for his rakeback site can be found here.

If you have questions with any of this after sign-up, we would love to help you.
