In the first OCR Video Blog for May 2016, I discuss the topic of Bitcoin and it’s role in iGaming.
21+ No operator we name holds a licence from a state regulator, and what you are allowed to play is settled by the state you sit in, not by us. This desk books no wagers, holds no balances and deals no cards — every button hands you over to the operator, and the terms you agree to there are the operator’s own. Conditions ride on every offer. Who pays this site, and for what.
Bitcoin and Channel Giveaway – 05/05/
Just last week casino affiliates of the Betting Partners Casino Affiliate Program, were in receipt of an email communication, informing them that from the 1st June 2016, all subsequent affiliate payments were to be made using Bitcoins. Affiliate Partners, were given no other option of payment from Betting Partners.
This is not a Partnership and is more a case of a command. Do as I say or else. As you can imagine, many affiliates are up in arms due to this decision by Betting Partners and are in the process of removing their properties, which include the likes of Bodog, from their casino portals.
As far as I am concerned, Bitcoin is not a transparent currency and is also highly volatile. Furthermore being paid earnings in this virtual currency is no doubt going to raise eyebrows with the tax authorities where the affiliates reside in.
In short, this is a shitty move by Betting Partners and is one that they should seriously reconsider.
