At the end of a calendar month, Argyll Partners shall record your total share of Net Revenues, if any, during the previous calendar month. In the event that a revenue share in any calendar month is a negative amount, Argyll Partners shall be entitled but not obliged to carry forward and set off such negative amount against future revenue shares which would otherwise be payable to you. However, Argyll Partners shall also be entitled but not obliged to zero the negative balance that would otherwise be carried forward. “

Terms and Conditions

Minimum Activity Quota – Yes, see below;

“Argyll Partners has the right to reduce the revenue share of affiliates, or to terminate this Agreement and remove such affiliates, who do not deliver at least one new Customer in a given calendar month. We will notify you by email where such a reduction or termination will occur. Accounts that are inactive for a longer period (e.g. where you have failed to deliver at least one new Customer in the last six months) may also incur an administrative fee but no such administrative fee will be deducted from your account prior to our having made reasonable efforts to contact you via the contact details last provided by you to Argyll Partners. The administrative fee will be applied against the payments (including future payments) that would otherwise be payable to you. If you have any queries regarding inactive accounts, please contact us for further information.”

High Roller Policy – Yes, see below:

“High Roller Policy
This is only relevant to Affiliates with an agreed commission structure with no negative carryover.
If in any given month a Customer generates a negative Net Revenue of at least £5,000 he/she will be deemed to be, for the purposes of this section, a ‘High-Roller’.
The Affiliate’s monthly payable balance of Commission is automatically reset to £0.00 at the beginning of each calendar month, to ensure that no negative balances are carried forward.
The negative Net Revenue generated by the High-Roller will be carried forward and offset against future Net Revenue generated by that High-Roller;
The negative balance carried forward cannot be set-off against other Customer’s Net Revenue;
The negative balance of a High-Roller will be reduced by future positive Net Revenue that they generate in subsequent months;
A negative balance will not be increased by future negative Net Revenue unless the High-Roller meets the qualifying criteria in subsequent months.
The affiliate will be able to view all adjustments in order to track the High-Roller Player’s net breakeven point. Adjustments will be made at the end of each calendar month based on the cumulative revenue for the month running to protect the Affiliate’s income from revenue generated from other Players in the same month.”

Program Reputation

Player Issues – The Argyle Partners properties carry predatory progressive jackpot withdrawal and dormancy terms.

Affiliate Issues – We are not aware of any affiliate issues with Argyle Partners.

Conclusion

As far as players go we would not recommend they play with operators that carry the predatory progressive jackpot withdrawal and dormancy terms that these operators do. We wouldn’t fault other affiliates for working with this program on that basis, but these are not the best options for players.

And their affiliate terms are much the same. A Minimum Activity Quota, discretionary negative carry over, very high minimum payment threshold and poor revenue ladder all combine to make a program that’s not a good choice for affiliates.

This affiliate program is recommended
