Program Reputation

Player Issues – The EGO group of casinos are run by SkillOnNet software provider. In 2009-2011 multiple parties, including ThePOGG.com, found that the gamble feature being run on SkillOnNet Video Poker games was highly likely to be functioning in a non-random fashion.

When we approached the software provider about this issue, they asked for the weekend to confirm our conclusions. After the weekend they came back stating that their own testing had shown the feature to be functioning normally. When we retested the game it was indeed functioning normally.

This leaves us with a 1 in 2000000 chance that the result we received was generated by a fairly functioning game (1 in 50000000000 if the results of the other parties are included) and a 1999999 in 2000000 chance that the game was altered over the weekend.

The game was fixed and has been retested several times since to ensure it remains compliant with fair practice. However whether this was an intentional rig or an accident that was corrected, the highly likely dishonesty displayed in the management of this issue was entirely unacceptable.

Due to the above issue, SkillOnNet have decided that they will no longer cooperate with ThePOGG.com in the management of player complaints due to concerns about bias on our part. This decision came after several complaints against their operators had been managed and resolved positively for the operator and as such seems without bases to us.

We are also aware of an instance where a SkillOnNet operator disclosed a player’s personal information accidentally to a non-authorised party.

When doing the research for this article we discovered that the EuroKings Affiliates (the other major SkillOnNet casino group) contact email address was redirecting to support@class1affiliates.com. Class1Affiliates was the affiliate program that previously represented Class1 Casino which was a rebranding of Maxima casino. Both these casinos developed a markedly negative reputation and ended up Rogued at CasinoMeister due to mistreatment of players. It seems highly likely given the above that EuroKings Affiliates is being run by the same group that originally ran Class1Affiliates/casino.

Affiliate Issues – In late 2014 an affiliate was found to be engaged in large scale hacking of WordPress sites. They were using security loopholes to access the sites then uploading a page of casino reviews. All affiliate programs have clear terms and conditions prohibiting this type of marketing. While some affiliate programs managed to shut this affiliate down quickly and stopped appearing on the hacked sites quickly, other programs either failed to stop the affiliate from opening new accounts or simply didn’t shut down the original accounts.

Some of the brands being operated by the extended SkillOnNet group continued to appear on these sites for many months after they were made aware of this issue.

Notes

“1.22. Real Money Player(s)” means any person who is attached to your Tracker (or if applicable, your Sub-Affiliate´s Tracker) who: (i) has not been a Player with us before; (ii) is not located in a Restricted Territory; iii) is not located in a territory which has previously fallen within the definition of a Restricted Territory or a territory which has otherwise been deemed a territory from which you may not send Players to us in accordance with any previous version of this Agreement or any previous contract between you and us or any current or former member of the Group unless we have notified you personally in writing that you are entitled to refer such Players (iv) who has made the Minimum Required Deposit; (iv) is accepted as a player under any applicable sign up or identity verification procedure which we may require; and (iv) has adequately fulfilled any other qualification criteria that we may introduce from time to time. Notwithstanding any other provisions contained elsewhere in this Agreement, we reserve the right to alter the above-mentioned qualifying criteria at any time by virtue of placing notice on the Site.”

Conclusion

The software issues SkillOnNet have been associated with have ensured that ThePOGG network will never work with a SkillOnNet operator. We have no confidence in the integrity of this operator.

The EGO Affiliate program carries a couple of notably negative terms. A summary follows below:

• Negative Carryover policies – if your players have a win large enough to create a significant negative balance for you, this creates a situation where you no longer have any incentive to carry on marketing the program’s brands. This leads to a short-term mind set to working relationship between the affiliate and the program.

• A term stating that the program won’t pay for traffic from previously restricted territories without written consent of the program. So even if the operator does accept traffic from a jurisdiction, if they previously didn’t they could detag your players.

Alongside the above, the lack of clear definition of the Revenue Ladder on offer is a concern for monitoring purposes and an aggressive term prohibiting affiliates from discussing what rate of revenue share they receive seems at the least excessive.

All in all we will not work with this group. We would strongly discourage other affiliates from considering this operator.
