  1. Our General Rights and Obligations

We will register your Customers and track their transactions on websites (“Hollywoodbets Websites”) which are owned, operated or branded by Hollywoodbets or any member of the Hollywoodbets group of companies (“Hollywoodbets Group”). We reserve the right to refuse your Customers (or to close their accounts) if necessary to comply with any requirements we may periodically establish in respect of the use of the Hollywoodbets Websites.

By opening an account with us, Customers will become our customers and, accordingly, all of our rules, policies, and operating procedures will apply to them. In addition, all information relating to the Customers from the date of registration onwards is the sole and exclusive property of Hollywoodbets and will remain so even on termination of this Agreement.

We will track your Customers’ bets and plays on any of the Hollywoodbets Websites and make available to you a report summarising their activities, which you can access from the Affiliate Site.  The report will not contain the identity or personal information of any of your Customers, it will only track their activity for the purposes of calculating our commission payments to you.

You are responsible for ensuring that all referred customers are properly tagged with your Affiliate Banner Tag. You will not receive credit for new Customers who are not properly tagged or who we are unable to otherwise properly associate with your Affiliate Banner Tag.

You agree that our statistics and calculations in relation to the tracking of Customer activity and the calculation of your Referral Commission shall be final.

1.3 Payment of a Referral Commission

Subject to clause 3 and clause 5, we will pay you a referral commission (“Referral Commission”) calculated in terms of the applicable Referral Commission Structure set out in more detail in clause 3 based on the Net Profit (defined in clause 3.1) we earn each month from Customers directed from your website after they open an account with us and wager for money on any of the Hollywoodbets Websites.

Modifications may include, for example, changes in the calculation of the Referral Commission or Affiliate Programme rules. If any modification is unacceptable to you, your only recourse is to terminate this Agreement. Your continued participation in the Affiliate Programme following our posting of a change notice or new agreement on the Affiliate Site will constitute binding acceptance of the modification or of the new agreement.

1.6 Data Protection by Hollywoodbets

All information that we make available to you via the Affiliate Site, reports issued, and via any other forum contains aggregated information only. This means that aggregated information has been derived from your Customers’ personal information but is not considered personal information in law as this information will not directly or indirectly reveal their identity.

  1. Your General Rights and Obligations

2.1 Linking to the Hollywoodbets Websites

By agreeing to participate in the Affiliate Programme, you are agreeing to create and maintain unique hypertext transfer links from your website to the Hollywoodbets Websites in order to refer Customers to these websites. In return, you will earn commission on profits earned from these Customers by Hollywoodbets. You may only link to the Hollywoodbets Websites by using approved promotional material (for example, banners, html mailers, editorial columns, images and logos), which we will provide to you from time to time via the Affiliate Site (“Approved Promotional Material”).

In the event that new product offerings are added to the Hollywoodbets Websites, we reserve the right to determine whether these products should form part of this Agreement and be included in the calculation of Referral Commission. In addition, we reserve the right to exclude any betting products or contingencies from the calculation of Referral Commission at any stage during the term of this Agreement.

2.2 Spamming and electronic marketing

We will terminate this Agreement immediately without recourse for you if you engage in any form of spamming.

In addition, you will not send any marketing SMS, email or other communications relating to Hollywoodbets or this Affiliate Programme without our prior written consent. In order for us to properly consider whether our consent shall be granted, you shall provide us the information we deem necessary to assess the request.

Further to the above, you will ensure that any approved SMS and or e-mail marketing campaign targeted at Hollywoodbets traffic follows the rules and regulations of POPIA. Failure to comply with POPIA will result in your suspension from the Affiliate Programme and all outstanding payments will be considered waived.

If we incur any cost in connection with spam or unapproved electronic marketing sent by you or anyone on your behalf, these costs will be deducted from any Referral Commission due to you under this Agreement. Should our costs not be covered by the Referral Commission due to you, we have the right to offset future Referral Commission or pursue other alternative means for obtaining payment from you.

2.3 Unsuitable Customers

We reserve the right to refuse any potential new Customer, to lock or close a Customer’s account, or to take other action which we may deem necessary in order to preserve the integrity or safety of the Hollywoodbets Websites. In the event that we refuse, suspend or close any Customer’s account for any reason, then you will not be entitled to Referral Commission in respect of the affected Customer’s account as of the date of suspension or closure but, for the avoidance of doubt, any Referral Commission earned prior to such date will be paid to you in accordance with this Agreement.

2.19 Breach

We will terminate this Agreement immediately without recourse to you if you breach any provisions of this clause 2.

  1. Referral Commission

3.1 The Referral Commission Structure

Subject to clause 5 and the exceptions as listed in this clause 3 read together with any other sections of this Agreement that apply to Referral Commission, you will earn the Default Referral Commission calculated as set out in clause 3.2. However, in certain cases, at our sole discretion, we reserve the right to enter into a Cost per Acquisition payment plan (“CPA Payment Plan”) or even a hybrid model made up of a combination of the Default Referral Commission Structure and CPA Payment Plan which will be communicated to you in writing if we elect to do so.

We reserve the right to change the Default Referral Commission Structure or CPA Payment Plan (including the amount of your commission percentage and method of calculation) at any time by providing you with at least 15 days written notice. Upon expiry of the 15-day notice period, the new Referral Commission Structure will automatically apply to all new and existing active Customers. If you do not agree to the change then you may terminate this Agreement by notifying us in writing in accordance with clause 4.1. For the avoidance of doubt, when an Affiliate is moved onto a new commission structure, Referral Commission will only be earned on Customers that are considered active at the date of change (refer to explanation on inactive customers below) as well as any new Customers that sign up thereafter.

Where any Customer’s account is inactive for a period of six (6) consecutive months, then such account shall be removed from the sales files and shall no longer qualify for Referral Commission.

In addition to Referral Commission, we may choose, at our sole discretion, to conduct special promotions which would entitle you to earn additional discretionary bonus commission based on performance over a specified period. In the event that we choose to conduct such promotions, we will issue additional terms and conditions covering such promotion. In the event you wish to participate in one of the special promotions, you understand and agree that such participation will be subject to the additional terms and conditions, as may be applicable.

For purposes of this Agreement, “Net Profit” is defined as, monies received by us each month in respect of all settled bets (excluding bets related to products that we reserve the right to exclude as set out in clause 2.1 and 3.5) made by Customers after deducting: (i) monies paid out to Customers as winnings; (ii) monies paid in the form of betting duties or taxes (or reasonable provisions in respect thereof); (iii) bad debts; (iv) fraud; (v) returned stakes; (vi) transactions which are reversed by instruction from the card-holder’s bank (commonly referred to as charge-backs); (vii) voids; (viii) bet/deposit bonuses; (ix) 3% administration fee for deposits received from Customers and (x) licence fees per product.

3.2 Default Referral Commission Structure

Upon registration, you will be placed on this Default Referral Commission Structure and subject to other sections of this Agreement relevant to Referral Commission, you will earn a Referral Commission based on the tier you fit into (using the below table) determined by the number of First Time Deposits (“FTDs”) in a month. For the purposes of clarity, you can move between the different tiers on a month-to-month basis based on the number of FTDs in each particular month. You will earn the applicable commission percentage based on the Net Profit (as defined in clause 3.1) we earn each month from Customers directed from your website after they open an account with us and wager for money on any of the Hollywoodbets Websites.

If the overall Net Profit (defined in clause 3.1) is negative in a particular month, this will result in a negative Referral Commission for that month which will be deducted from any positive Referral Commissions as and when available.

For example, if in month 1 our Net Profit in respect of the Customers is positive R10 000, in month 2 it is negative R5 000, in month 3 it is negative R1 000, and in month 4 it is positive R10 000, you will receive a Referral Commission of R2 000 in month 1, nothing in months 2 and 3 and R800 in month 4 (assuming a Referral Commission percentage of 20%):

We reserve the right to review the commission percentage tiers and number of FTD’s on a monthly basis.

3.3 CPA Payment Plan

As noted in clause 3.1, we may choose, at our sole discretion, to enter into a CPA Payment Plan or hybrid model made up of a combination of the Default Referral Commission Structure and CPA Payment Plan which will be communicated to you in writing if we elect to do so.

In the event that we choose to enter into either a CPA Payment Plan or hybrid approach, we will issue the related calculations and terms and conditions covering such payment plan and you understand and agree that your participation in such plan will be subject to the amended terms and conditions, as may be applicable.

3.4 Payment of Referral Commission

We will pay the Referral Commission earned by you for the previous calendar month by the 15th working day of each month, subject to exchange control limitations as set out further below where applicable. Unless otherwise agreed, Referral Commission will only become payable once it reaches an amount of R500. If a month’s Referral Commission is below R500, the Referral Commission will be carried over to subsequent months until Referral Commission reaches the minimum amount of R500.

Referral Commission must be invoiced and comply with the following requirements:

  • The invoice description must include “Affiliate Advertising Commission”;
  • For foreign affiliates, the amount on the invoice must be listed in the applicable foreign currency using the exchange rate as per the spot rate on the last day of the month that the commission is due (using the rate as appears on oanda.com for that date);
  • The invoice must include the relevant affiliate’s banking details as well as Hollywoodbets company details which will be provided at the date of invoice.
  • It should be noted that Referral Commission is exclusive of Value-Added Tax.

Foreign payments may take 4 – 7 business days to be processed due to exchange control requirements.

All invoices must be issued on a monthly basis provided it meets the minimum Referral Commission amount payable. If you wish to roll over the Referral Commission payable to you, you must advise us accordingly. Referral Commission over R10 000 will not be rolled over and must be invoiced.

We reserve the right to perform audits on your account, and any overpayments will be recouped from positive Referral Commission when available whilst any underpayments must be added to the next invoice.

All payments due to you are based on our own statistics, records and calculations. All decisions made by us regarding the tracking, calculation or payment of your Referral Commission or other payments shall be made by us in our sole discretion.

 

3.5 Payment exclusions

As noted in clause 3.1, the payment of Referral Commission is subject to a number of exclusions in other clauses that may limit, reduce or even prevent such payments. By way of example, the following situations may, inter alia, result in a payment exclusion:

  • Incentivised traffic;
  • Fraudulent activity;
  • Brand bidding;
  • Unsuitable Customers and websites;
  • Unlawful electronic marketing or spamming; or
  • Any other material breach of any terms of this Agreement.
