Security features
There are not too many security features
for affiliates to consider when selecting
affiliate programs. But we do strongly
advise that affiliates use high-security
passwords, because we have seen
fraudsters crack into affiliate accounts
and insert their own e-wallet details
into the payment section. By this method
they can try to steal your hard-earned
affiliate commissions specifically from
automated payments, rather than invoice-
based payments.
This is because the more player data
we see, the better we can analyse our
lifetime ROI/player values, and also the
more easy it is to spot operators who are
shaving our commission.
The other important technical feature
that affiliates require is the ability to
track traffic on a keyword level, and
tracking different parts of your website(s).
Most affiliate software enables affiliates
to track like this, usually by tagging such
variables on to the end of their affiliate
tracking codes.

The main security feature for operators
to consider is the access that you have to
the back end of your affiliate software.
Most database hackers target easily
accessed operator software this way.
The best affiliate software will use systems
such as proxies for access, and not have
easily decipherable usernames. From an operator’s perspective
