Negative Carryover

Il negative carryover è una politica in cui un saldo di ricavi negativo di un periodo viene riportato al periodo successivo e compensa i guadagni futuri.

What it means in practice

Il negative carryover viene discusso piu spesso nei deal RevShare (Revenue Share), in particolare nell'iGaming. Significa che se un giocatore referenziato o un gruppo di giocatori genera un saldo negativo in un mese, quel deficit viene riportato in avanti e dedotto dai mesi successivi prima che l'affiliato torni a guadagnare.

La politica conta perché modifica il reale profilo di guadagno di un deal RevShare. Un programma può pubblicizzare una percentuale solida, ma se usa anche l'NGR (Net Gaming Revenue) con deduzioni aggressive, inclusi i chargeback, e il riporto negativo, i payout effettivi possono essere ritardati o ridotti su lunghi periodi.

Alcuni operatori mantengono il negative carryover perché allinea i payout alla redditività netta. Gli affiliati spesso si oppongono perché sposta piu rischio su di loro. Questo lo rende un termine di negoziazione, non solo un dettaglio contabile. Nel mercato ADM, la trasparenza delle clausole RevShare è particolarmente rilevante per i partner.

Negative Carryover in iGaming affiliate programs

Il negative carryover è particolarmente rilevante nell'iGaming perché le vincite dei giocatori, il costo dei bonus e la volatilità del prodotto possono spingere il ricavo mensile sotto lo zero. Gli operatori dovrebbero definire chiaramente se le perdite si riportano a livello di account, di brand o di portafoglio. Nel mercato ADM, le clausole devono essere documentate con chiarezza nel contratto commerciale.
