I run the media, publicity and portal development company, Media Man
Australia. We also have a gaming and igaming arm, Casino News Media.
We are a member of a number of affiliate programs.
PKR is just one of dozens of affiliate programs we are in. These days
we don't actively pursue new affiliate programs, as we're pretty happy
with the mix we already have.
The news...
For approximately 1 week I have been unable to log into to the PKR.com
Affiliate interface. We have been a member of their affiliate program
for approximately 2 years. We've generated hundreds of leads and
players for them. We currently have a commission payment coming from
them, so I believe, based on last check of my affiliate commission
payment due report 1 week ago.
Today when I check their affiliate section of the site I can't log in
once again, and we didn't change our username or password.
It may be too early to start ring major alarm bells, but in this
industry (igaming, gaming and online casinos) you never know, as the
industry has has way too many affiliate issues to list over the past
few years.
I am hopeful that my reporting of this to the Gambling911.com website, one of my personal favorite websites in the world, may help get the situation
rectified, and also make other affiliates and igaming media aware of
this. Unfortunately this falls under the serious type of news story,
rather than a positive news and PR one.
Other news media and gaming media may like to make their own enquiries.
Let's all do our best to try to make the industry a better place.
