Parimatch Affiliates.
Wanna learn a little bit more about Parimatch Affiliates?
Read on.
Parimatch Affiliates — The Product
Parimatch Affiliates is the affiliate program behind an online sportsbook sharing the same name (without the “affiliates” part) that got its start in 1994.
Geeze that’s old.
But hey, as they say, “tried and tested” is good. Ergo, Parimatch Affiliates must be good.
Now, as for what makes the sportsbook behind Parimatch Affiliates so great, that boils down to nothing in particular, but everything in general.
In short, if you promote with Parimatch Affiliates, you’ll be promoting a sportsbook that nails just about everything, from UI/UX through to depoits and withdrawals, everything just works.
And it works well.
The same applies to the Parimatch Affiliates program, which we’ll get to in a second.
But before we do, there’s one other bit I almost forgot to mention. Parimatch Affiliates also have an equally good casino product that you can promote on the side.
Or you can make it your main gig if you want.
Whatever you choose, Parimatch Affiliates won’t mind, as long as they’re depositing phat checks into your account.
Parimatch Affiliates — The Commissions
So, speaking of Parimatch Affiliate depositing phat checks into your account, wanna take a guess at what the commissions are at Parimatch Affiliates?
No?
Fine, I’ll just tell you.
By default, Parimatch Affiliates offers a 25% rev share deal from the moment you sign up, which is a pretty good starter rate if you ask me.
As for what comes after that… well, that’s gonna come down to whatever you negotiate with Parimatch Affiliates once you get a bit of a track record going.
FYI: Parimatch Affiliates is pretty open about the fact they offer hybrid deals, so you might wanna look into this, too.

Affiliate News Takeaways
Pickleball’s Back
Looks like we’ve got a recurring topic going on around here.
That topic looks a little like this.
Don’t know what a “dink-dink-dinkaroo” is?
Good. Neither do I.
Actually, that’s not entirely true. I do know a “dink-dink-dinkaroo” is usually just called a “dink”. And, I also know it comes from our topic for the day — pickleball.
But that’s about it.
So, anyway, WTF is pickleball?
Well, if you were a regular reader of our affiliate news digest, you’d already know. We last covered it a few months ago in our most recent 2024 1xBet affiliate program review. And we first covered it a little over a year ago in our previous 2023 1xBet partners review.
[PS: As for why we reviewed 1xBet in each of those editions, that was purely a coincidence. It could have been any sportsbook. It just so happened that the 1xBet affiliate program stars aligned.]
Anyway, for those who aren’t in the know, here’s the quickest explanation I could find for pickleball.
So, everybody know what we’re here to talk about now?
Good.
Let’s get to the “why” bit — the bit that explains why we’re even talking about pickleball as a piece of affiliate news in the first place.
The answer to that is pretty much the same as the last two times we covered pickleball.
The sport is absolutely exploding in popularity.
Big time.
That’s what caught my eye the first and second time. And it’s what caught my attention this week, too.
Only, this week, it’s a bit different. Same but different.
The last two times we covered pickleball here, it was 100% focussed on the US. That’s where this whole pickleball thing really started taking off.
But, as usual, when the US does something, it doesn’t take long for the rest of the world to follow.
So this week, we turn our attention to a new, emerging pickleball market.
Australia.
And here’s the story that tipped me off to pickleball exploding down under.
The key bit here is the Shopify data — sellers reported a 44.5% bump in pickleball sales last month. When I saw that, I knew it was worth looking a bit deeper into it.
So I did.
Then I found a bunch of other stuff.
For example, the Pickleball Australia Association was founded in Founded in 2020.
Then it grew steadily to the point of having 7.5k members at the start of this year.
Then, in the first six months of this year, stuff got crazy. Membership sorta almost doubled, hitting 12,648 by the end of June. (Couldn’t find any more recent numbers… but I reckon they’re still going up. Especially if Spotify seller data is anything to go by.)
Also, that Aussie pickleball association just hosted the second largest pickleball tournament ever outside of USA.
And remember, Australia’s not exactly a massive country.
Okay, so that’s maybe not quite accurate.
What I meant to say is that the population of Australia isn’t exactly massive. There weren’t even 28 million people last time someone bothered to check.
That’s not even 10% of the United States.
So yeah. While some of the numbers might seem small, they’re pretty significant given the size of the country.
Oh, and here’s something I almost forgot to mention — just last month, Aus got its very first “integrated” pickleball bar/restaurant/courts… kinda sounds like a bowling alley plucked out of the 90s and zshoozed up for the 2020s.
Anyway, back to the topic of Australia’s relatively small population.
At first, you might think that’s a relative disadvantage. I mean, who cares about a small niche in a small country? There just ain’t the numbers to make it worth it, right?
Well, not so fast.
If you look at OECD rankings for household net wealth, Australia’s all the way over on the right hand side where all the “rich” countries are.
That means, even if the population is small, each referral’s at least gonna have some cash to splash.
So, speaking of splashing cash, let’s get down to the business end of this.
Takeaway
So, if you read the story, you probably saw the part that set this all off — the report about Shopify sales data.
And, maybe you had a bright idea.
Dropshipping on Shopify!
But before you blow your wad, remember a couple of things.
First, dealing with actual customers is kinda a pain. Even if you don’t have to do much in the way of actual “customer service”, you’re still the one responsible for “recurring” income.
And second (and most importantly), we’re not here to talk about here to talk about FBA, dropshipping, or any of that other stuff. Remember, we’re here to talk about affiliate marketing.
So what’s the affiliate opportunity here?
Well, here’s a clue.
Remember how I just said you’d be responsible for generating “recurring” income if you start a Shopify store?
Right. So let’s pick an affiliate program that satisfies the following two criteria:
- The product naturally generates recurring income.
- The affiliate program actually cuts you in on the recurring action.
Sound familiar?
Pretty sure we just spoke about something that ticked those boxes above when we looked at Parimatch Affiliates.
Now, I totally understand that I’ve given you zero data to justify why you should take the sportsbet angle on this.
But, I do have a theory that’s 100% worth testing.
Ever noticed how the bigger a sport is, the bigger the bucks that get bet on it?
I’m pretty sure the only place where this correlation breaks down is horse racing.
But hey, that’s not even a real sport. It’s just something we invented so midgets could compete in something other than this…
Anyway, horse racing aside, the popularity > handle ratio tends to be pretty consistent. So me thinks there’s money to be made here.
Oh, and in case you were wondering if you can promote in Australia with Parimatch Affiliates, turns out they have a dedicated AU domain.
Election Odds — It’s a Wash Done Two Ways
If you’ve been watching the news at any time in the last week, you’ve probably heard the name Polymarket.
A big part of that is because, while regular polls are pretty much a wash:
Polymarket’s been washed:
Confused?
Okay, let me explain.
Regular polls are pretty much all tied up. The race is too close to call. Thus, “it’s a wash”.
Polymarket, however, has Trump wayyyyy ahead. And, before you think someone knows something we don’t know, they don’t. Some researchers this week apparently demonstrated that the anomaly’s all down to wash trading.
Oh, and if you don’t know how wash trading works, here’s a quick primer:
- Something is trading at $2.
- I go and make a sell offer at $3.
- I simultaneously make a buy offer at $3.
- The trades are matched, and now the thing is trading at $3.
See how easy market manipulation is?
So, what’s this got to do with affiliate marketing?
Well, not much.
But it is just one of a whole bunch of stories that have appeared over the last couple of weeks that all have one thing in common.
Election betting.
Apparently, it’s the “hot new trend”, according to Business Insider — a hot new trend that’s already generated hundreds of millions in handle, with plenty more to come.
Takeaway
Firstly, if you’re up for a bet, I’d head to Polymarket and put a bet on Kamala before the huge Kamala-Trump gap closes up.
Yeah, she’s annoying and loves a good word salad.
But remember — the only thing a bet is voting for is for more money in your pocket. And with pretty much 50-50 odds in the official polls, I like the looks of the wash-traded ‘edge’ someone created over on Polymarket.
Now, as for the actual affiliate opportunity, with just days left to go, you don’t really have much time to act on this.
Although, if Trump looses and the predictable happens, don’t be surprised if betting markets crop up around the outcome of whatever shit he stirs up.
So maybe you’ve still got plenty of time.
In either case, if you’ve got an audience that you can get some of this stuff in front of right now, maybe now’s the time.
Especially since we just reviewed Parimatch Affiliates (FYI, in case you missed it, you can promote political markets with Parimatch Affiliates.)
Look Out, Illinois Might’ve Just Invoked the Streisand Effect
This week, Illinois’s gaming authority put a temporary suspension on a bunch of so-called “harmful” prop wagers after the NFL pressured it to.
As for what “harmful” actually means here, I’ll leave the NFL’s Vice President of Public Policy and Government Affairs, Jonathan Nabavi, to explain:
“Inherently objectionable bets represent markets or bets that are inherently derogatory, designed to be inflammatory or otherwise based on subject matter against public policy (e.g., player injuries, fan safety, misconduct). These markets often are not directly related to gamplay or can have a negative impact on the consumer and player involved.”
More specifically, the NFL identified these types of bets:
- Player injuries
- Fan safety
- Player misconduct
- Penalties
- Replay results
- Officiating assignments
- First play of the game
- Roster or personnel decisions
- Player to miss a field goal or extra point try
- First pass to be incomplete
- Any other wager that is pre-determined or 100% determinable by one person in one play
Takeaway
The main play for making some affiliate bucks here is similar to a strategy we’ve discussed a bit recently.
Last time we covered it, it was in our MegaPari affiliate program review edition.
The basic strategy last time went like this:
- Find a place where a sportsbook is shutting up shop.
- Target clients of that sportsbook since they’ll be looking for a new sportsbook.
- Make sure those clients see your affiliate links.
- Profit.
This time around, we’re gonna do the same thing, but with a couple of minor tweaks:
- Find a state where sportsbooks can no longer offer certain types of bets.
- Find sports betting customers in those states.
- Point those clients to an out-of-state sportsbook that still allows those bets.
- Profit.
Easy peasy.
The only this missing is a sports book that’s still offering those in-game markets.
If you don’t know where to start looking, then maybe take a look at our affiliate program of the week — Parimatch Affiliates.
Closing Thought
Now, don’t get me wrong. What I’m about to say isn’t an endorsement of manipulating financial markets.
But… you gotta admire the way somebody went out and wash-traded the Kamala vs. Trump market to their liking in that story above.
What’s to admire about it?
Well, the takeaway here is pretty simple.
They saw something that was “out of their control”, and found a way to bring it under their control.
Let that be a life lesson.
There are many things that are seemingly out of your control.
And there are also many things that you can do to take back control.
Need an example?
Alright.
Imagine that an affiliate program just stiffed you and dropped your commission rate. Or maybe they just refused to bump up your commission, despite you being their best-performing affiliate.
That’s something that’s apparently “out of your control”.
So what’re you gonna do?
Nothing?
No.
You manipulate the market.
You take your business to another affiliate program that’ll pay you better.
Or, maybe you don’t.
Maybe you simply get an offer in writing, bring it back to your current affiliate program, and tell them you’ll jump ship if they don’t match it.
Whatever you do, you’re now in control.
Oh, and speaking of affiliate programs that’ll pay you well, have you ever heard of Parimatch Affiliates?
