6 Payment

6.1 the payment plan which shall apply to the affiliate shall be either of the plans detailed in this clause 6.1 (or a hybrid thereof) as shall be agreed to in writing by the parties on a case-by-case basis, provided that the default payment plan which is to apply in the absence of any agreement to the contrary shall be the revenue share plan.

a) Revenue share plan – this shall be the percentage of the net revenue arising from new customers and payable monthly to the affiliate in terms of this clause 6.1a.

The company agrees to pay the affiliate a commission based on the net revenue generated from new customers referred by the affiliate s website/s and/or other channels permitted in writing by the company. new customers are those customers of the operator who do not yet have and have not had a betting account with any operators website and who access the operator’s website via the tracking link and who properly register and make real money transfers at least equivalent to the minimum deposit into their operator’s website account. the commission shall be deemed to be inclusive of value added tax or any other tax if applicable.

Net revenue shall be calculated in accordance with the following formula:

bets (-) wins (-) administration fee (-) paid bonuses (-) transaction costs & chargebacks (-) applicable gambling taxes and vat (-) Jackpot_Contribution

For the sake of clarity, it is expressly stated as follows:

The administration fee is a value which contains the license fee, game provider fee, platform fee and other costs associated with running the business.

Bonuses, in this case, means paid bonuses to the customer, not granted bonuses. the difference is that a paid bonus is a type of bonus money where the customer has actually reached the wagering requirement and/or has received the funds on his/her real money wallet.

The gambling tax is monies paid in the form of betting duties or taxes payable by the operator to the authorities. the gambling tax does solely apply to revenues being generated from within the relevant jurisdictions and will be charged at the given rate of taxation of the respective gambling authorities.

The net revenue share percentage is determined by the amount of new depositing customers referred by the affiliate within the month the revenue share is paid to the affiliate and is calculated as follows:

Number of new depositing customers – Revenue share (%)

0-50 – 25%

51-100 – 35%

100+ – 45%

The amount of commission earned when reaching a tier will apply to all customers, also those referred to reach that tier.

b) CPA payment plan this shall be a “one-time” fee paid by the company to the affiliate for each new customer who does and has not had a betting account with any operators website and who accesses the operator website via the links and who properly register and make real money transfers at least equivalent to the minimum deposit into one of their operators websites betting account.

The one-time fee shall be determined on a case-by-case basis.

The affiliate accepts and understands that no further payments, fees and/or commissions beyond the one-time fee shall be due to the affiliate.

6.2 the commission is calculated in the beginning of each month and shall be calculated on the previous month. the affiliate agrees that only invoices turned in from the date they receive a notification from the company until the thirteenth of the same month will be held accountable for the payable commission, provided that the amount due exceeds 300 for bank wire transfers(minimum threshold). if the balance due is less than the minimum threshold, it shall be carried over to the following calendar month and shall be payable when the accrued balance exceeds the stipulated minimum threshold. any invoices turned in before or after these dates will be deemed null and void.

The company shall endeavour to effect payment of the commission due in terms of this agreement by the twenty-first day of each calendar month.

– For the sake of clarity, it is expressly stated that, should the net revenue generated from the new customers introduced by the affiliate in any given month fall below zero (“negative net revenue”), such negative balance shall not be carried over to the following month for the purposes of the calculation of the net revenue and commission for that same month. (exception: individual players who win more than euro 5000 in a single month are excluded from the “no negative carry over rule”. such players are isolated until they become “positive” players again.)

– The affiliate agrees to notify the company immediately by means of email to finance@cashmio.com & affiliate@cashmio.com if any changes to their vat status and/or bank details including if they become vat registered or if their vat registration number changes, cease to be vat registered or sell their business, or part of their business.

– The Affiliate agrees that the vat (if applicable) shown in their affiliate account for the payment covered in this agreement, is their output tax due to the relevant tax authority.

– The affiliate shall indemnify on demand and hold harmless the company and/or the operator from and against any and all losses, demands, claims, damages, costs, expenses (including, but not limited to, consequential losses and loss of profit, reasonable legal costs and expenses and vat thereon if applicable) and liabilities suffered or incurred, directly or indirectly, by the company and/or the operator in consequence of any breach by the affiliate of this clause 6.2 or as a result of the affiliates vat status being different from that notified to us via email finance@cashmio.com.

6.3 the affiliate accepts that the payment of the commission due in terms of this agreement may be delayed by an additional fifteen day period beyond the date stipulated in the immediately preceding paragraph, provided that such delay shall be communicated by the company to the affiliate.

6.5 payment of commissions shall be made as per the payment method chosen by the affiliate in the affiliate account. if an error is made in calculating the commission, the company reserves the right to correct such calculation at any time and will immediately pay out underpayment or reclaim overpayment made to the affiliate.

6.8 the company may delay payment of any balance to the affiliate for up to one hundred and eighty (180) days, while it investigates and verifies that the relevant transactions comply with the provisions of the terms.

SHOULD YOU FAIL TO SEND US AN INVOICE, OR OTHERWISE FAIL TO CLAIM ANY AMOUNT DUE TO YOU WITHIN TWELVE (12) MONTHS FROM WHEN SUCH AMOUNT BECOMES DUE, SUCH AMOUNT SHALL BE WRITTEN OFF AND WILL NO LONGER BE DUE TO YOU.

6.9 it is agreed that no payment shall be due when the traffic generated is illegal or contravenes any provision of these terms.

6.10 the affiliate agrees to return all commissions received based on fraudulent or falsified transactions, plus all costs for legal causes or actions that may be brought against the affiliate to the fullest extent of the law.

6.11 for the sake of clarity the parties specifically agree that upon termination of this agreement by either party, the affiliate shall no longer be entitled to receive any payments whatsoever from the company, provided that payments already due (earned and unpaid commissions) shall be paid out.

6.13 the affiliate shall be exclusively responsible for the payment of any and all taxes, levies, fees, charges and any other money payable or due both locally and abroad (if any) to any tax authority, department or other competent entity by the affiliate as a result of the revenue generated under this agreement. the company shall in no manner whatsoever be held liable for any amounts unpaid but found to be due by the affiliate and the affiliate hereby indemnifies the company in that regard.

6.2 the affiliate understands that the payment plan that shall be applicable shall be as identified by the company in the affiliate application. the particular terms pertaining to either the revenue share plan or the CPA payment plan as listed in this clause 6 shall be applicable depending on the plan so identified.

6.3 the company reserves the right to change the payment plan upon giving written notice to this effect to the affiliate.

6.7 if the affiliate disagrees with the balance due as reported, it shall within a period of thirty (30) days send an email to the company to affiliate@cashmio.com and indicate the reasons of such dispute. failure to send an email within the prescribed time limit shall be deemed to be considered as an irrevocable acknowledgement of the balance due for the period indicated.

6.12 at the sole discretion of the company the affiliate may be given the opportunity to restructure its commission structure. examples of alternative revenue sources could include a cost per acquisition (CPA) model. once an affiliate opts to accept the company’s offer for a different revenue structure to the standard commission structure outlined in article 20, then the affiliate is aware and hereby agrees and understands that the new proposed revenue structure shall replace his existing commission structure in its entirety. notwithstanding the above, all the affiliate s obligations assumed under this present agreement will still continue to apply to the affiliate up until the termination of this agreement and thereafter in accordance with the terms and conditions contained in this agreement.

In this case, no notice period shall be applicable and the Agreement shall be considered terminated as of the date on which the Company notifies the Affiliate of its decision to terminate the Agreement on the strength of this clause 7.2. In this event, the Parties agree that the Company may take any action it deems appropriate, including the withholding of any unpaid commissions as of the date of termination as security for any perceived/anticipated/contingent liabilities or claims that may arise against the Company due to the breach or activities of the Affiliate.
