Before you can proceed with registering your affiliate account on this program, please read and accept the terms and conditions below. Printing it for future reference would be a great idea.

If you wish to participate in our Affiliate program, indicate your agreement to do so by checking the “I have Read, Understood & Agree to all Publisher Terms & Conditions” box before submitting your registration. Additionally, by accessing and utilising any of Dukes Partners Marketing Material or accepting of any reward, bonus or commission whether contained in this agreement or elsewhere on our website/ program, you are deemed to have agreed to be bound by all the terms and conditions set out in this agreement.

For purposes of clarity, the terms “we” and “us” refer to Dukes Partners and “you” and “Affiliate” refer to the other party to the contract formed by the acceptance of these Terms and Conditions.

The terms “Operator” and sometimes “Admin” or “Program” are defined as any company that owns or has contracted Dukes Partners to promote their Site(s) and/or products. The contract provides you with the non-exclusive right to direct users (“Visitors”) from your site or sites to the Operator’s websites, in return for the payment of commissions and/ or referral bonuses as specified below.

ENROLLMENT

To enroll please read this Agreement and then submit a complete Dukes Partners Account application to us via our registration page. We will evaluate your application and notify you whether it was accepted or rejected. Your application will be rejected if we determine, in our sole discretion, that your site is unsuitable for any reason, including but not limited to, sites that are under construction, aimed at children, promote sexually explicit materials, promote violence, promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age, promote illegal activities, or violate intellectual property rights.

The Operator’s banners and/or text links shall be displayed on the Affiliate site. Affiliates can also provide descriptive information regarding the Operator Sites(s) on its websites(s). If the content on the Affiliate site is found to be inaccurate or outdated, then we may notify you of any changes to your Site(s) that we feel should be made. The relationship specified in this Agreement is non-exclusive for both parties; therefore, the Affiliate shall be entitled to display the banners of, and provide links to, sites of other companies through the Affiliate site, and Dukes Partners shall be entitled to make the Operator’s banners available through online and other services than the Affiliate site

You shall be entitled to a commission as outlined below:
Our Revenue Share model guarantees a net share between 30%-55%. Further details provided upon request.
The above are subject to change at the discretion of the Operator(s). In case of any change, a prior notice would be given to the Affiliate.

The Net Gaming Revenue is calculated as below:

Net Gaming Revenue: Cash bet – Cash won – jackpot contributions – bonus – processing fees – any royalties – ID checking fees – admin costs – operating costs – POC taxes/duties

Commission payments are made by the 15th of every month for previous month’s commission. Please note that commission payments are subject to a minimum payment threshold depending on the method of payment chosen by you. The minimum thresholds for commission payment are as below:

1. Electronic transfer: £500
2. Paypal: £100
3. Neteller: £20

In case, the Affiliate does not reach the minimum threshold as required in any particular month, the commission amount will then be rolled over to the following month until the minimum threshold is reached.

We do not carry over negative commissions for the following month(s). However, in some cases, if applicable, we do apply the High Roller Policy.

High Roller Policy

Negative Commission revenue generated in any given month by any Player who we, in our sole discretion, determine to be a “High Roller” will be carried forward and offset against future commission revenue generated by Players referred by You until such negative commission revenue is cleared. The determination of the criteria to categorize a Player as “High Roller” shall be in our sole discretion, and our sole responsibility in this regard shall be to advise you of the categorization of any Players referred by you as the same by way of amendment to these terms and conditions. Current criteria for determining our High Roller policy are:

1. If in any given month a player generates negative commission revenue of at least €5,000, and the aggregate commission revenue in that month (for the gaming site) for that Affiliate is negative, then such Player shall be deemed to be a High Roller.

2. If both of the above criteria are met then the negative commission revenue generated by the High Roller will be carried forward and offset against future commission revenue generated by that High Roller.

3. The negative balance carried forward cannot be set-off against other player’s positive commission revenue.

4. The negative balance carried forward cannot be greater than the total aggregate negative commission revenue for the affiliate, for that month.

5. If there is more than one High Roller, the negative balance carried forward will be split proportionally between them.

6. The negative balance of a High Roller will be reduced by future positive commission-able revenue that they generate in subsequent months.

TERM AND TERMINATION

The term of this Agreement will begin when you download a banner and link it to our site or the Operator’s Site(s) and will be continuous unless and until either party notifies the other in writing that it wishes to terminate the Agreement, in which case this Agreement may be terminated immediately.

TERMINATION IS AT WILL, FOR ANY REASON, BY EITHER PARTY.
For purposes of notification of termination, delivery via e-mail is considered a written and immediate form of notification. Upon termination:
* You must remove the Dukes Partners or Operator’s banner/s from your site and disable any links from your site to ours and theirs.
* All rights and licenses given to you in this Agreement shall immediately terminate.
* You will be entitled only to those unpaid referral fees, if any, earned by you on or prior to the date of termination. You will not be entitled to referral fees occurring after the date of termination.
* If you have failed to fulfil your obligations and responsibilities, we will not pay you the referral fees otherwise owing to you on termination.
* We may withhold your final payment for a reasonable time to ensure that the correct amount is paid.
* If we continue to permit activity (generation of revenue) from customers after termination, this will not constitute a continuation or renewal of this Agreement or a waiver of termination.
* You will return to us any confidential information, and all copies of it in your possession, custody and control and will cease all uses of any trade names, trademarks, service marks, logos and other designations of our Operators.
* You and we will be released from all obligations and liabilities to each other occurring or arising after the date of such termination, except with respect to those obligations which by their nature are designed to survive termination, as set out in this Agreement. Termination will not relieve you from any liability arising from any breach of this Agreement which occurred prior to termination

WE MAY TERMINATE THIS AGREEMENT IF WE DETERMINE (IN OUR SOLE DISCRETION) THAT YOUR SITE IS UNSUITABLE
Dukes Partners may choose to cancel an affiliate’s participation in the program, at its absolute discretion, if the affiliate is in breach of this contract or if it reasonably believes the affiliate to have behaved in such a manner contrary to the terms or intent of the program. If the affiliate ceases to be an Affiliate of the affiliate network, Dukes Partners reserves the right to terminate this agreement.
Unsuitable sites may include those that: are aimed at children, promote sexually explicit materials, promote violence, promote discrimination based on race, sex, religion, nationality, disability, sexual orientation, or age, promote illegal activities, or violate intellectual property rights.

For the avoidance of doubt, termination of the agreement will cease any commission payment that may be earned by the Affiliate from net gaming revenue generated post the termination of the agreement.

RISK ALLOCATION

Neither party will be liable to the other party (nor to any person claiming rights derived from the other party’s rights) for incidental, indirect, consequential, special, punitive or exemplary damages of any kind — including lost revenue or profits, loss of business, or loss of data — arising out of this Agreement (including without limitation as a result of any breach of any warranty or other term of this Agreement), regardless of whether the party liable or allegedly liable was advised, had other reason to know, or in fact knew of the possibility thereof.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENT OF NO WARRANTY

Except as expressly provided herein, neither party warrants that their respective websites will perform in the manner expected or without interruption, error, or defect, or that any revenue to either party will result from the activities contemplated by this Agreement. Except as expressly set forth in this agreement, neither party makes any warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of fitness for a particular purpose or warranties against infringement of any intellectual property rights not specifically enumerated.

ASSIGNMENT

Except as otherwise provided herein, neither Dukes Partners nor the Affiliate may assign this Agreement or any of its rights or delegate any of its duties under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of the other. Any purported assignment or delegation without such required consent shall be null and void.

GOVERNING LAW

This Agreement, its interpretation, performance or any breach thereof, shall be construed in accordance with, and all questions with respect thereto shall be determined by, the internal substantive laws of United Kingdom.

SINGLE ACCOUNT

The Affiliate agrees to operate a single Affiliate site with the Operator’s Site(s). If Dukes Partners should discover, using information it deems appropriate in the circumstances, that the Affiliate is operating more than one Affiliate account, this Agreement shall terminate and the Affiliate will forfeit all rights to commissions and referral bonuses. Several sites may be registered to the one account; however, the placement of any site banner on a new site, under the Dukes Partners Program, MUST be reported by the Affiliate and cleared by the Dukes Partners Support Team beforehand, and failure to do so may result in the termination of the Affiliate’s account. The Affiliate will also forfeit all rights to commissions and referral bonuses.

INDEPENDENT CONTRACTORS

Dukes Partners and the Affiliate are independent contractors under this Agreement, and nothing herein shall be construed to create a partnership, joint venture, or agency relationship between Dukes Partners and the Affiliate. Neither party has the authority to enter into Agreements of any kind on behalf of the other party.

DISCLAIMER

It is the Operator’s responsibility to pay its Affiliates and Dukes Partners will not be held responsible for the actions of its Operators in regards to the payment of its Affiliates.
Dukes Partners is also not responsible for the way cookies are tracked on the Operators site or on the Affiliate’s site. The maintenance of the cookie/tracking code is the responsibility of the Operator. Dukes Partners is strictly a housing software that displays the results of the tracking for its Affiliates

WAIVER

MODIFICATIONS

Dukes Partners may modify any of the Terms and Conditions set forth in this Agreement by posting the modified Terms of Use on their website or at another site it chooses, and by notifying the Affiliate of the modifications via email notice.
