Each beneficiary must be at least 21 years of age. You represent and warrant that you are over the age of 20 and have the capacity to enter into this agreement.

3.2 Marketing Activities and Responsibilities. You will, at your own cost and expense, market to and refer Players to the Site. You will be solely responsible for the content and manner of your marketing activities. All marketing activities must be professional, proper and lawful under all applicable rules or laws in every jurisdiction in which you operate. You represent and warrant that you will not place Banners or Text Links to us on any website, or use any media or medium, which is libelous, discriminatory, obscene, pornographic, unlawful or otherwise unsuitable. Under no circumstances may you market to or refer persons less than 21 years of age to the Site, regardless of the age of majority in the location you are marketing. TruePoker has the sole and absolute discretion to reject any website, marketing activity or other media for any reason we deem objectionable. If we direct you to do so, you will immediately cease any rejected activity.


3.3 Approved Marketing Materials. You will only use marketing materials that have been provided by us and/or pre approved by us. You will not modify our marketing materials, copyrights, logos, etc., without our written consent and may link to our site only through our approved marketing materials. During the term of this Agreement, we grant you a terminable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use our logo, trademark and other copyrighted promotional materials for the sole purpose of marketing to and referring Players to the Site. Under this agreement and for no other purpose whatsoever, we will provide you, without charge, the guidelines, graphical artwork and permitted text to use in promotional materials. However, any CDs and other customized promotional materials provided to you will be AT COST and deducted from Marketing Fees payable to you. 

3.4 Non Assignment. Trackers are for your sole use and are not to be assigned to others, without our written express consent. 


3.5 Commercial Use Only. This Marketing opportunity is for commercial use only, and you may not sign up or make deposits to any account, directly or indirectly, through your Tracker(s) for your own personal use, to fraudulently increase the Marketing Fees payable to you or to otherwise defraud us. In no event are you to receive Marketing Fees on Gross Revenue generated on your own player accounts at the Site. Violation of this provision constitutes Fraud Traffic. Unless expressly agreed, during a Designated Rakeback Marketing Program, you may not receive Marketing Fees on Gross Revenue generated on your own player accounts at the Site.

3.6 Good Faith Marketing. You will not knowingly or unknowingly benefit from any known, unknown, suspected or unsuspected Fraud Traffic. For clarity, we reserve the right to withhold or back-out amounts we believe were generated by Fraud Traffic from Marketing Fees on the Trackers, regardless of whether you participated in or knew about the Fraud Traffic. In the event you participate in, or benefit from Fraud Traffic, then this Agreement shall terminate effective immediately and you will forfeit any and all Marketing Fees due to you. 

3.7 Player Information. By opening an account at the Site, Players will be subject to all of our rules, policies and operating procedures that govern their activity at the Site. We reserve the right to refuse service to any potential Player and to close the account of any Player, at any time, for any reason or no reason, in our sole discretion. All data relating to the Players will remain our sole and exclusive property and you acquire no right to such information, except as expressly stated herein.


IV. Reports & Payments

4.1 Reports. We will track and report Player activity for purposes of calculating your Marketing Fees. The form, content and frequency of the reports may vary from time to time in our sole discretion. At a minimum you will receive a monthly report with your payment indicating the number of Players who played over 100 Raked Hands that month, the total number of Raked Hands played by your referred Players that month and your total Marketing Fee, per Tracker. In addition, this information will be available to you online in real time, under password protection, to view the number of Players playing over 100 hands for the current calendar month. 

4.2 Marketing Fees will be in accordance with the following:

1. RAKEBACK PLAN - We will pay you a percentage on a sliding scale up to 17% for each new qualifying player signed up during the month. Qualifying players are those players new to Truepoker who make a deposit and play at least 200 raked hands.
2. REVENUE PLAN - We will pay you up to 37% of the Net Revenue generated for Players referred by you. Net Revenue means Gross Revenue, less an aggregate  deduction for any chargeback amounts, fraudulent play, VIP programs expenses, or other promotional expenses, costs, or payments to your Players, or other marketing expenses we incur benefiting your Players. 
We will pay baseed on the above compensation plan selected at time of signup. 

4.2.2 The aggregated charge backs related to your referred Players will be withheld from monthly payments hereunder. 

4.3 Time of Payment. Marketing Fees will be paid and sent out to you on the 2nd and 16th of each month, except that, if the total amount due is less than $50, the balance will be carried over and added to the next month's Marketing Fees until the total amount is more than $50. In the event, the balance amount carried over does not total $50 within a consecutive three (3) month period, then the amount due will be voided and cancelled, and we may terminate this Agreement. 


4.4 Holdover for Fraud Traffic. In the event Fraud Traffic on your Trackers is abnormally high, or there is suspicious activity, then we may delay payment to you for up to one hundred and eighty (180) days to verify the transactions and to otherwise ensure that such Fraud Traffic is identified, reversed and properly allocated to your Marketing Fees. Traffic from accounts for which the funding information cannot be identified or if the account holders refuse to supply requested information will be deemed suspicious activity, subject to holdover and such referred Player's accounts may be suspended. 

4.5 Method of Payment. All payments will be due and payable in United States Dollars only. Payment will be made by check, wire, PayPal or Net Teller as we in our sole discretion decide; however we will try to accommodate your preference for check, wire, PayPal or Net Teller. Charges for wires or courier charges for checks less than $1,500.00 USD will be covered by you and deducted from your payment. 

4.6 Player Tracking. You understand and agree that potential Players must link through a Tracking URL to get credit. In no event, are we liable for your failure or their failure to use or identify the right Trackers. 

4.7 Disputes. Deposit of payment check, acceptance of payment transfer or acceptance of other payment will be deemed full and final settlement of Marketing Fees due for the month indicated. Hence, if you disagree with the reports or amount payable, do NOT accept payment for such amount and immediately send us written notice of your dispute. Dispute notices must be received within sixty (60) days of the end of each month for which payment is made, or your right to dispute such report or payment will be deemed waived.
