6.3. Casino Operators (Affiliate Relationships)
CasinoAlpha’s team earns commissions when you register and play at online casinos by following links on our page. When you access an affiliate link, the casino platform you access shall place a tracking cookie on your device that ca last up to 90 days. This cookie links your activity to our referral.
If you decide to register and make an account at that casino during the time the cookie is active, the casino brand shall notify us that a user referred from us has registered and deposited. Based on this referral, the gambling company pays CasinoAlpha a commission, which includes one of the following:
- $25 to C$200 as a one-time Cost Per Acquisition (CPA) payment
- 20% to 40% of the net revenue you generate as an ongoing revenue share agreement
We share the following data with casino brands:
- Referral sources
- Timestamps for clicks

Note: To receive more information, we recommend that you go through our Editorial Policy.
