Fortune Poker Affiliate Program Review

Of all the sites I have promoted, of all the affiliate managers I have worked with, there’s no room I have enjoyed promoting more than Fortune Poker. Based on the Boss Network with sites like Celeb Poker and Sporting Bet, they have a poker room manager who goes above and beyond the duty to work with affiliates, doesn’t appear to sleep, and understands the business like very few other people that I’ve met in this industry.

First, let’s look at the stat sheet:

The Boss Network is a site mainly compromised of European players, and is an excellent site to promote to your non-US players. The software runs very smooth, graphics are appealing, and it is also the fishiest poker network around. I am not exaggerating in the slighest when I say that. Hell, sign up for an account and see for yourself. Whether it’s Hold’em, Omaha, Stud or Draw, the biggest selling point for this network is without a doubt, the amount of fish sitting around just waiting to give you their money.

If you promote a rakeback site, you’ll definetely want to go with Fortune Poker on this network. Daily stat updates for all players are available, and payments are automated and paid directly into a players account on the 1st of the month. You also have the option of choosing a signup bonus instead, with a variety of options available to you all of which work on a semi-rakeback plan. For example, a 100% to $500 sign-up bonus that a player will clear at $1 for every $5 he rakes. Fortune Poker are always willing and able to work with you, to find the best available plan for you.

There are a lot of sites on the Boss Network including Celeb Poker, Sporting Bet, Virgin Poker and Pokerheaven, and if you’d rather sign up for one of those, please contact me and I’ll get you the sub-affilate link. However I really, really recommend signing up to promote the Boss Network via Fortune Poker and it’s really for one reason: James, the manager of Fortune Poker. James is without a doubt the most incredible manager you will ever have the pleasure of dealing with, and I can not say enough good things about him.

To list the reasons as to why you should sign with Fortune Poker and work with James would take me days, however let me just say that there is no-one that cares more about their poker room than James. James puts so much work and effort into making both affiliates and players happy, accomodating them in a fashion unheard of in this business. Every player when signing up will receive a personalized e-mail from James welcoming them to the room. And when I say personalized, I mean personalized. One of my players was from London, England and James asked the player what soccer team he supported, then spent weeks writing back and forth talking about Arsenal and how they’re doing in the league this year. One player signed up from France, James sent them an e-mail entirely in French.

Player retention and player comfort is another one of his strong points. He creates personal relationships with every player, will talk to them both via telephone and e-mail, and see what he can do to accomodate them. If a player tells James that they’re taking a break from poker, he’ll tell them to e-mail him when they’re ready to play again and he’ll whip up a special little bonus for them. And you know what? They do e-mail him, and come back within a few weeks always to Fortune Poker.

One of my players was having problems with Fortune Pokers banking system, which is Webdollar, as they had put a maximum deposit limit on his account. He e-mailed James, and James called the player back within an hour, told him “Go to dinner on me. Have a steak, have whatever you want, don’t come back till you’ve spent at least $50. I’ll have it fixed by the time you’re back.” And of course he did, and paid for the players $86.74 meal!

So if you’re going to be promoting on the Boss Network, I highly, highly recommend Fortune Poker. You can sign up here, and be sure to tell James that Dealer Dan sent you.

(If you wish to promote on the Boss Network but would prefer to promote a different site(ie: Celeb, Virgin), please e-mail me.
