1. GENERAL SCOPE AND OBJECT

1.1 Betcake requires third party advertising space to promote its Brand and increase its business, notably via increasing the number of New Depositors, and will, from time to time in cooperation with third parties, negotiate, sign and carry out its affiliate marketing strategy. In the event Betcake uses a third party for the (partial) roll-out of its affiliate marketing strategy, including contract negotiation, day-to-day management of the Technical Platform, payment processing, marketing or other activities, this irrespective of the legal capacity of the intermediary, whether as agent, subcontractor or other, Betcake Services Ltd is and remains exclusively responsible for the proper execution of the Agreement.

1.2. Betcake expressly states that the promoting or soliciting of bets is subject to legal restrictions in some countries and may even be prohibited in some cases. These restrictions may vary from time to time. Thus, the Affiliate acknowledges that - should the promoting or soliciting of bets or the participation in prize games be prohibited under the rules and regulations of its country of domicile or be permissible only under certain preconditions not met - it may not enter into this agreement and shall, consequently, also not be entitled to post the link on its website. Should any harm or loss whatsoever arise for Betcake or the Affiliate due to the Affiliate’s disregard of the relevant prohibitions in the country of domicile of the Affiliate, the Affiliate shall be exclusively liable for such disadvantages and shall hold Betcake harmless and full indemnify it for any such liability incurred by Betcake.

1.3 The Affiliate further confirms that it operates the website, where the affiliate link will be placed, under its own name and that it is fully and without restrictions authorised to dispose thereof.

1.4 Unless otherwise agreed in writing by the Parties, each Party shall remain exclusively responsible for all and any expenses (including investment and/or running costs) incurred in respect of the obligations it undertakes in terms of this Agreement and will have no right of recourse against the other Party in respect thereof.

2. THE AFFILIATE’S INTEGRATION IN THE Betcake AFFILIATES NETWORK

2.1. Upon conclusion of the Agreement, a unique tracking code (often in the form of a URL) is assigned to the Affiliate, and the Affiliate is integrated in the Technical Platform. By means of the tracking code, New Customers and New Depositors acquired via the Betcake Content on the Affiliate's website and the bets placed during such sessions are registered and/or can be further tracked.

2.2. The tracking system shall track only the player account; therefore, if a New Depositor creates a new player account by signing up to:

  • a different brand operated by the Betcake Group, or;
  • a new domain due to licensed market regulations, provided that Betcake was not authorised to "migrate" the players accounts to the new domain, the new player account will not necessarily be linked to the Affiliate.

2.3. Any additional Advertising material (of any kind whatsoever) created by the Affiliate and related to Betcake shall require Betcake's prior written approval.

2.4 A change to the URL of the Affiliate Site shall not constitute a change to the Agreement and shall not affect the rights and obligations of the Affiliate arising from this agreement.
