Revenue Share
Revenue Share ist ein Provisionsmodell, bei dem Affiliates einen wiederkehrenden Prozentsatz des Nettoumsatzes geworbener Nutzer erhalten.
What it means in practice
Revenue Share, oft als RevShare abgekürzt, koppelt Affiliate-Auszahlungen an die laufende Nutzerökonomie statt an ein einmaliges Event. Statt eines pauschalen CPA (Cost-per-Acquisition) bei der Ersteinzahlung verdient der Affiliate einen Prozentsatz dessen, was jeder geworbene Nutzer über die Zeit an Umsatz erzeugt. Die Berechnungsbasis zählt: iGaming-Programme zahlen typischerweise auf NGR (Net Gaming Revenue) statt auf GGR, und der Unterschied ist groß genug, um vor jedem Traffic in die Partnervereinbarung zu gehören.
Operativ verlagert Revenue Share sowohl Chancen als auch Risiko auf den Affiliate. Der Betreiber zahlt nur, wenn Umsatz existiert, was die Marge in akquisitionsintensiven Monaten schützt. Der Affiliate trägt das Frühphasen-Risiko, dass geworbene Nutzer abwandern, bevor sie genug Umsatz erzeugen, profitiert aber von kumulierenden Einnahmen bei langlebigen Nutzern. Die meisten Programme wenden Umsatzabzüge einschließlich Chargebacks, Rückerstattungen und Bonuskosten an und setzen oft einen Nullboden, damit Verlustmonate einer Kohorte nicht an den Affiliate weitergegeben werden.
Die Hauptfallstricke in Revenue-Share-Programmen sind unklare Abzugsregeln, überraschende Negative-Carryover-Regeln und kurze Kohortenlebenszeiten, die das Modell gegenüber CPA unattraktiv machen. Der Vergleich mit Alternativen wie der Hybrid-Provision hilft beiden Seiten zu entscheiden, was zum Vertical passt: hoher LTV im iGaming begünstigt RevShare, während Forex-Affiliates mit kurzem LTV oft CPA oder Hybrid bevorzugen. In Deutschland überwacht die GGL das Online-Glücksspiel und verlangt transparente kommerzielle Konditionen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about revenue share, how it works in affiliate programs, and where it shows up across Track360's supported verticals.
Die meisten iGaming-Programme zahlen auf NGR (Net Gaming Revenue), also GGR minus Boni, Chargebacks, Glücksspielsteuer und teils Bearbeitungsgebühren. Manche zahlen auf GGR, wenden aber einen niedrigeren Prozentsatz an. Die Wahl sollte mit einem Rechenbeispiel in der Partnervereinbarung dokumentiert sein, sonst sind monatliche Streitigkeiten verbreitet.

RevShare (Revenue Share)
RevShare is a commission model where an affiliate earns an ongoing percentage of the revenue generated by their referred customers, typically calculated on a monthly basis.
CPA (Cost Per Acquisition)
CPA is a commission model where an affiliate earns a fixed payment for each qualifying action, such as a deposit, registration, or purchase, that a referred user completes.
Hybrid Commission
Hybrid commission combines two payout models, most commonly CPA and RevShare, in a single affiliate deal so operators can reward both conversion volume and long-term customer value.
GGR vs NGR
GGR is wagers minus winnings. NGR deducts bonuses, taxes, and fees from GGR. The difference impacts affiliate RevShare payouts by 30-50%.
Revenue Share Deductions
Revenue share deductions are costs subtracted from gross revenue before calculating an affiliate's RevShare payout, including bonuses, taxes, fees, and chargebacks.
Negative Carryover
Negative carryover is a policy where a negative revenue balance from one period is rolled into the next period and offsets future affiliate earnings before new commissions are paid out.
CPA vs RevShare
CPA pays a fixed amount per conversion. RevShare pays an ongoing percentage of revenue. The core difference is where risk sits after the acquisition happens, and which model aligns with your program goals.
