Why you should join the PokerStars affiliate program
- Credibility. Your website/blog visitors are introduced to PokerStars, the safest, most secure and enjoyable place to play poker online. Our integrity is the best in the business, all player money is secured in a leading European bank and our software uses full 128-bit digital encryption when communicating with our servers. You can send players our way knowing that they are in good hands.
- Quality. PokerStars runs more poker tournaments and gives out more cash prizes than any other online poker site. We've fielded two World Series of Poker winners in back to back years, and have sent thousands of players to major poker events throughout the world. Our support staff, poker room managers and tournament directors are all professionals in their field. Being one of the largest poker sites on the internet, your visitors will have access to the best cash and tournament games possible.
- Rewards. You deserve to be rewarded for helping to refer players to us. That's why we have a sliding scale, which earns you more as you refer more players to PokerStars.
- Community. By helping to promote PokerStars, you are personally helping to build us into a bigger and better site. More players means more games, more tournaments and bigger payouts. PokerStars led the way in creating tournaments for disaster relief, the blogger championship freeroll, the World Cup of Poker and many more unique events. PokerStars may be a business, but we also realize we couldn't be here without our great poker community, which is why we're happy to give back.
How does the affiliate program work?
If you own or operate a website, blog or other such site, you can be an affiliate for PokerStars. We will supply you with marketing banners and links that you can put on your website. Every time a visitor signs up through one of your PokerStars affiliate links, you get credited!
What type of marketing materials will I be provided?
We will provide you with links to banners that are hosted on our site. This takes the brunt of bandwidth off of your shoulders and onto ours instead. In addition, our banners are constantly updated, so you don't have to go to the trouble of changing your banners every month. With our own built-in tracking system, you will always be up-to-date on the number of new sign-ups you generate every day.
How will players / referrals be tracked to my affiliate account?
Once you are approved as an affiliate, you will receive a copy of the Affiliate Agreement for your files, a personalized affiliate referral code, and instructions on how to utilize the banners and referral code to make a link on your site. When a player signs up for an account on PokerStars through your link, they are automatically tracked to you.
What is considered a "sign-up"?
Good question! A qualifying sign-up is a player who earns at least 100 Frequent Player Points (FPPs) which typically takes two hours of real-money play. This is in place to stop abuse of the affiliate program by players who simply create then close a PokerStars account. Due to the fact that a player must deposit money in order for you to be credited, this means that play money accounts do not count toward your sign-ups until that player earns 100 FPPs.
How will I be paid?
Affiliate earnings are paid directly to your PokerStars account within 10 days of the end of the month in which payments have been earned. These funds may then be cashed out using all of our regular financial services, such as Neteller, check and more. Note that you do not need to play at PokerStars in order to open an account at our site.
What is PokerStars' stance on email marketing or marketing on public forums?
PokerStars absolutely does not tolerate unsolicited spam of any kind, whether it be through email, forum posts or blog comments. We pride ourselves on the integrity of our operations and will not tolerate any type of subversive marketing on our behalf. Any reports of affiliate spam should be immediately sent to affiliates@pokerstars.com so that we may take immediate action.
