With the situation in the USA, I’m often asked what poker rooms and casinos via their affiliate program offer CPA, or Cost Per Acquisition for players that they send. While I’ve written in the past about why I much prefer Revenue Share to CPA, I can understand where people are coming from, particularly if you’re still targeting towards US players, because no-one knows the longevity of those poker rooms, or these players. Also without the US playerbase, we’ve seen many poker rooms switch from network to network, which obviously loses players in the progress.
I have compiled an alphabetical list of all poker affiliate programs that offer CPA to affiliates, as well as the requirements for that.

Also please note that the figures listed are always negotiable. In some instances, I was able to secure as high as $450 per player for certain poker affiliate programs. Also - some smaller poker rooms may also be willing to negotiate a CPA even if they don’t have it listed - so if they don’t have CPA available but you’d be more comfortable doing it, don’t be afraid to ask!
