However, this is outlined in the commission deal and visible within the AdmiralBet Partners Programme Software.
ii. Revenue Share Payment Plan is based on the commission percentage of the Marketing Partner deal, which is taken from the generated revenue of the Marketing Partner’s acquired players through their Tracker ID.

The set-up, depending on the criteria, can also be specific to the acquisition of players who participate in a product vertical (i.e. Slots or Sports). However, this is outlined in the commission deal and visible within the AdmiralBet Partners Programme Software.

However, this is outlined in the commission deal and visible within the AdmiralBet Partners Programme Software.
iv. Hybrid payment plan is based on the characteristics mentioned above of both the CPA payment plan and the Revenue Share Payment Plan collectively for a referred player. The set-up, depending on the criteria, can also be specific to the acquisition of players who participate in a product vertical (i.e. Slots or Sports). However, this is outlined in the commission deal and visible within the AdmiralBet Partners Programme Software.

8.4. The Marketing Partner is entitled to receive commission calculated according to the applicable payment plans that are allocated to the Marketing Partner’s tracking links during the term of this agreement or while the player concerned is still active on the Operator’s Website. For the avoidance of doubt, the Marketing Partner will not be entitled to receive any commission for revenues generated by any players not generated via the Marketing Partner’s tracker URL, or already registered on the Operator’s Website(s) except as set out in the payment plans the Marketing Partner has chosen for the Operator’s Website(s) and which form part of the AdmiralBet Partners Programme. Furthermore, any acquisition of players generated via fraud traffic (as defined in Section 7.), if so considered at the Programme Partner’s sole discretion, will be not taken into account for the purposes of the commission.
8.5. The Operator reserves the right to change a Marketing Partner’s commission payment plan as regards future referrals, and if existing user referrals are needed, for justified reasons including, but not limited to:

i. non-performance;
ii. inactivity;
iii. suspicious fraudulent activity;

provided that this change is notified to the Marketing Partner via the provided contact e-mail address.

8.6. The Marketing Partner understands that when it chooses the Revenue Share Payment Plan, the revenue per user is the amount that each referred player’s account is debited with as consideration of the referred player’s participation in the games, minus the amount of bonus money that the respective user has converted into winnings when wagering such amounts in games or tournaments on the Operator’s Website(s). The flat fee percentage as “Handling fee” (in particular chargebacks, service costs, transaction costs, taxes due on the offering of games, licence costs, fees to be paid to third parties’ software and service providers, marketing costs, etc.) is deducted from such an amount. The remainder is considered as the commission base and is the basis for calculation of the revenue share.
8.7. Revenue share payment plans may include an expiry period, meaning that a period of time will be stipulated in the Revenue Share Payment Plan during which the actions of the referred users will be included in the commission. Any actions by the referred user after the stipulated expiry period will not form part of the Revenue Share Payment Plan. The stipulated expiry period starts from the date of the user’s registration under the Marketing Partner’s referred tracker. For the avoidance of doubt, the expiry period, if stipulated, is mentioned in the commission visible in the AdmiralBet Partners Programme Software.
8.8. In the event that suspicions are raised as to the use of fraudulent elements in order to raise a particular commission, the Programme Partner may withhold payment of that commission and all future commission until it is satisfied that no fraudulent methods were used. Where fraudulent methods have in fact been used, payment of such commission shall not therefore take place and the Marketing Partner’s agreement shall be terminated immediately.
8.9. The commission shall be paid to the Marketing Partner by the Programme Partner and shall – if possible – be credited via the chosen payment method of the Marketing Partner within fifteen (15) days from the Commission Calculation Date. If the payment method or the Marketing Partner company information (including, but not limited to, Company legal name, VAT number, address) is changed by the Marketing Partner within a period of 24 hours before the Commission Calculation Date, the payment will be delayed and made on the next Commission Calculation Date. The Programme Partner shall not be held liable for any delay caused by technical reasons and events which are beyond the Programme Partner’s and/or the Operator’s reasonable control.
8.10. The commission can only be paid out if the credit has reached a minimum amount of fifty euros (EUR 50.00-). If this requirement is not met, the commission shall be carried over until a total of fifty euros (EUR 50.00-) has been accumulated.
8.11. General clarification as to the minimum amount and commission: if a Marketing Partner is awarded a hybrid plan, or covering the duration of the Marketing Partner participation, and the Marketing Partner had multiple deals of standalone CPA plans and revenue share plans, the Marketing Partner’s commission total is based on the totals of the CPA component of the payment plan and the revenue share components of the payment plan collectively.
8.12. Negative revenues will be balanced to zero and will not be carried over to the next period of commission calculation (no negative revenue carry over), with the exception of bonus money and other deductions.
8.13. All taxes due in connection with any payments to the Marketing Partner shall remain the Marketing Partner’s sole liability at all times. The Marketing Partner is responsible for complying with any rules governing the registration for and payment of income tax and similar taxes in respect of the Marketing Partner’s income from this agreement and for collecting and paying the income tax and social security contributions in respect of the Marketing Partner’s staff, if the Marketing Partner has any staff. If Value-Added Tax (VAT) or any other sales tax, gaming tax or turnover tax is chargeable, the Marketing Partner is responsible for complying with any rules for registering for tax and collecting and paying tax in the country where the services are provided and the Marketing Partner acknowledges that the payments that it receives shall be deemed to include all VAT or sales tax or turnover tax.
8.14. The Marketing Partner shall comply with all applicable laws and any policy notified by the Programme Partner through the Operator’s Website or otherwise in relation to money laundering and/or the proceeds of crime.
8.15. The standard commission is to be paid based on self-billed invoices. Should a Marketing Partner activity statement instead be required and, upon such request, be accepted by the Programme Partner, payment may only be made upon presentation of the invoice no later than 15 days after the specific Commission Calculation Date. Upon approval by the Programme Partner, the payment will be credited after fifteen (15) days and paid according to the payment method stated on the invoice.
8.16. Bank charges for international money transfers are settled on a shared cost basis. The Programme Partner will pay the fees for the payment order, while the Marketing Partner will pay the charges of any intermediary bank (and those of their own bank, if any). The intermediary bank fees are deducted from the amount transferred to the Marketing Partner.

9. Intellectual Property (IP)

9.1. Intellectual Property Rights means rights to all existing and future patents, trademarks, design rights, service marks, trademarks, trade or business names (including domain names), registered designs, copyright (including rights in computer software), moral rights, database rights, format rights and topography rights (whether or not any of these is or are registered, and including applications for registration), know-how, trade secrets and rights of confidence and all rights and forms of protection throughout the world of a similar nature or with similar effect to any of these for the full unexpired period of any such rights and any extensions and/or renewals thereof, including the words “ADMIRALBET” (in any capitalisation, font or format) and/or any logo, mark, domain name or trade name that contains, is confusingly similar to or comprises the Operator’s marks (or parts thereof), or any other name or mark owned from time to time by the Operator or any third party.
9.2. The Marketing Partner acknowledges and agrees that all Intellectual Property Rights are exclusively vested, and shall remain vested, in the Programme Partner and its Operator. The Marketing Partner further understands and agrees that it is prohibited from sub-leasing, reselling, licensing and/or distributing any corresponding intellectual property or rights to any third parties without the prior written consent of the Programme Partner.

The Programme Partner’s liability under this agreement, whether contractual or for breach of statutory duty, or in any other sense, shall only be for direct damages and shall not exceed the revenues generated and payable to the Marketing Partner in relation to the Operator’s Website(s) forming the object of the dispute to over the previous twelve (12) months, at the time that the event giving rise to liability arises. However, nothing in this agreement will function to exclude or limit either party’s liability for death or personal injury arising as a result of that party’s negligence or for fraud.
