4.15 Large Winners Policy
Negative Commissionable revenue generated in any given month by any Customers who Luckiest Partners, in its sole discretion, determine to be “High Rollers” will be carried forward
and offset against future commissionable revenue generated by Customers referred by an Affiliate until such negative commissionable revenue is cleared. The determination of the criteria to categorise a Customer as “High Roller” shall be in Luckiest Partners’ sole discretion, and Luckiest Partners sole responsibility in this regard shall be to advise the Affiliate of the categorisation of any Customers referred by the Affiliate as the same by way of amendment to these Terms & Conditions. The current criteria for determining High Roller policy are:
(a) if in any given month a Customer generates negative commissionable revenue of at least €10,000, and the aggregate commissionable revenue in that month (for the brand) for that Affiliate is negative, then such Customer shall be deemed to be a High Roller;
4.15.1. if the criteria above are met (4.15) then the negative commissionable revenue generated by the High Roller will be carried forward and offset against future commissionable revenue generated by that High Roller;
4.15.2. the negative balance carried forward cannot be offset against other Customers’ positive commissionable revenue;
4.15.3. the negative balance carried forward cannot be greater than the total aggregate negative commissionable revenue for the Affiliate, for that month;
4.15.4. if there is more than one High Roller, the negative balance carried forward will be split proportionally between them; and
4.15.5. The negative balance of a High Roller will be reduced by future positive commissionable revenue that they generate in subsequent months.
4.15.6. Progressive wins do not fall into this category as this payout is taken from a progressive funds pool.
4.16 If there is a pending payment due to an Affiliate for a period of one (1) year or more as a result of incorrect payment details, missing payment details, invalid or no-longer-valid payment details and the Affiliate has not responded to all reasonable contact attempts made by the Company, the payment will be cancelled.
5 Sub-Affiliates
