Player Issues – The United Commissions properties are white labels of the 888.com group. This group have an extensive list of player issues:

• Multiple failures to engage with 3rd party dispute mediation.
• Confiscation of winnings based on vague terms and conditions.
• Confiscation of winnings due to playing at multiple properties within the extended 888 white label network, without giving the player clear guidance regarding which properties they operate. This extends to both bonus play and self-exclusions.
• A Baccarat game that’s mis-paying on multiple bets.

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.

The 888 group of casinos turned up regularly on these sites long after other operators had managed to stop appearing.

Conclusion

The volume of player issue with the extended 888 group and their white label partners make us very uncomfortable.

Putting that aside and looking only at the affiliate terms and conditions offered by United Commissions, this group holds one of the most aggressive minimum activity clauses that falls short of termination of the account that we’ve seen. Reducing commission levels to 5% essentially handcuffs the affiliate to continued promotion of this group if they wish to receive the full value of their historical referrals.

The short story is there are not many good reasons to promote United Commissions.
