Online Gambling Market to Touch USD 158.20 Billion by 2028; Soaring Popularity of Virtual Gaming Platforms to Catalyze Market Growth: Fortune Business Insights™
Quick Adoption of Online Gambling amid COVID-19 to Boost the Market
The global health and economic crisis triggered by the COVID-19 pandemic forced governments in several countries to impose strict lockdowns and social distancing measures. Companies rapidly adopted remote working models, leading to huge portions of working populations working from home. With most non-essential services and places, including casinos, being closed down, gamers and gamblers have swiftly shifted to virtual platforms, boosting the online gambling market growth in the process. For example, an article published by New York University revealed that digital gambling platforms have gained speedy momentum in Canada after the coronavirus broke out. In Australia, according to a report by Concordia University, Canada, spending on online casinos rose sharply by 67% in April 2020. The coronavirus pandemic has, thus, proved favorable for this market, enabling it to register a healthy CAGR of 11.2% and reach a value of USD 74.17 billion in 2021.

On the basis of devices, the market segments include desktop, mobile, and others. By region, the market has been divided into North America, Europe, Asia Pacific, the Middle East & Africa, and South America.

Introduction of Sophisticated Technologies in Virtual Gambling to Fuel the Market
Advanced, intelligent technologies, such as artificial intelligence (AI) and blockchain, are being increasingly employed by online gambling platforms to ensure a secure and safe space for enthusiasts. Heralding this trend are startups that are developing and offering novel gambling platforms powered by smart technologies. For example, Edgeless, which was started in 2018, became the first Ethereum-based virtual casino that uses distributed ledger technology to ensure payouts. Similarly, Tombola is a popular lottery and gambling platform driven by cryptocurrency and other blockchain-enabled tools. Another example is the Canada-based startup, Quarter4, which leverages AI to offer simulations, content, and predictions for sports bettors. The incorporation of new-age solutions in digital gambling is, thus, opening new pathways of development for this market.

How to Drive Traffic Without Caps and Earn Without Limits? Betmen Affiliates x Marsa Team

If you – as an affiliate marketer – can generate quality traffic, then you can easily secure offers with competitive CPA rates. However, these often come with limited daily caps – a well-known pain point in the market. Advertisers are afraid of running into high costs, are reluctant to share other GEOs with advertising networks, or simply don’t trust you.
The problem of limited caps becomes even more apparent when resources allow affiliates to drive traffic in large volumes, and due to constant caps, partners have to gather dozens of offers at once in order to earn.
In this article, Betmen Affiliates and Marsa Team explain how to go about building relationships in the iGaming market. We discuss how the two companies worked using a spend-based traffic payment model with no volume limitation, and why such conditions are a real growth opportunity for affiliate marketers.
How Teams Typically Take on Offers and What Problems They Face
When an Affiliate Sales Manager agrees on an offer’s terms, rates and an offer’s technical aspects, the next step for partners is the test run. This usually involves 25-50 FTDs (first-time deposits). After the traffic is delivered, the advertiser checks the profitability over 1-2 weeks, analyzing player behavior, the percentage of bonuses that were used, and other metrics.
If the traffic quality is deemed suitable, the affiliate is given a small daily cap. The CPA rate, however, remains unchanged or increases slightly, resulting in little profit to the affiliate marketer in this collaboration.
We can see two issues with this partnership model:
1. Limited scaling opportunities. Very often, the advertiser is not willing to provide a significant increase in the cap — for example, offering 70 daily FTDs instead of 50. Volumes such as these are insufficient for a large team of affiliate marketers. This means new offers must constantly be found leaving the affiliate team to, each time, have to adapt to a new product and new conditions. Circumstances such as these make it hard to predict profits.
2. Even a converting offer might not be profitable. Let’s say an affiliate team has a good deal whereby they provide high-quality traffic and bring in a positive – though not high – ROI of 30%. With a volume of 50 daily FTDs, income is indeed insignificant. With a CPA of $100, in a month, an affiliate team could earn:
This offer results in a profit of around $1,000 per day. Working with the advertiser under these conditions is pointless if the offer can’t be scaled. However, if volumes were increased tenfold with profits of $349,000, the situation would certainly be more appealing, right?
The Uncapped Model Used by Marsa Team and Betmen Affiliates
To transition to an uncapped model, partners had to achieve a certain level of traffic quality without increasing the cost of acquiring deposits to critical levels. Team leads from both sides communicated regularly to solve problems together: they worked on targeting by excluding smaller cities, adapted age groups, and adjusted creative approaches. The Marsa Team was open to suggestions, and the quality of traffic started to improve.
Quality traffic always leads to higher lead costs, so Betmen Affiliates suggested that the Marsa team switch to a spend-based payment model and drive traffic at any volume – a proposal which was much more interesting and profitable than working on a CPA basis.
The spend-based model works like this: after selecting the GEO and setting the deposit price, partners receive a fixed percentage of the amount their advertising expenses for meeting their target. The quality of the traffic is evaluated as a percentage based on the 14-day Deposit OAS: for example, if you agreed on terms of 25% on the amount spent with a 70% 14-day Deposit OAS, you would earn $2,500 for every $10,000 spent on advertising.
The main difference with the spend-based model is that the same lead may cost $100 under a CPA model and twice as much when working on a spend-model. This means that the team sets its own cost per lead. The only condition is higher traffic quality: the advertiser will expect that these types of players will show better results than those acquired through CPA.
How to Get an Uncapped Offer and Other Traffic Conditions
We have two main recommendations:
- Build a relationship of trust with the advertiser. Approach requests to improve traffic quality not as a signal to terminate the offer but as an opportunity for long-term cooperation. The advertiser can always help with recommendations and advice — optimize campaigns together, and the partner will notice that you’re interested in mutual success.
- Test multiple approaches and analyze all available metrics. If you want to drive traffic using the spend-based model with no caps, you’ll need to find an approach that gives you the most cost-effective FTD acquisition price and provides the advertiser with the required quality.
It may take months before you and your partner come to a mutual understanding, but the numbers speak for themselves as it is well worth it!
Where to Get an Uncapped Offer?
At Betmen Affiliates, we aim for long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation. All you need to do is bring in quality traffic, and in return, we’ll purchase all your traffic volume. Register on the Betmen Affiliates website to kickstart a productive, successful collaboration.
