RevShare vs Turnover-Based Commission

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.

Turnover-based commission is a payout model where affiliates earn a percentage of the total amount wagered (handle) by their referred players, rather than a share of the operator's net revenue.

Sportsbook RevShare is a commission model where affiliates earn an ongoing percentage of the net revenue generated by their referred bettors from sports betting activity, typically calculated on net sportsbook revenue after payouts and adjustments.

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.

The betting margin (also called overround, vigorish, or juice) is the built-in profit margin a sportsbook applies to its odds, representing the difference between the true probability of outcomes and the implied probability reflected in the offered odds.

GGR is the total amount wagered by players minus the total amount paid out as winnings. It represents the raw revenue an iGaming operator earns from player activity before any deductions for bonuses, taxes, or operational costs.

NGR is the revenue that remains after an operator deducts costs such as bonuses, taxes, and platform fees from GGR. It is a common base for RevShare calculations in iGaming affiliate programs.

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.
