How to Drive Traffic Without Caps and Earn Without Limits? Betmen Affiliates x Marsa Team
Reading Time: 4 minutes
If you – an affiliate marketer – can generate quality traffic, then you can easily secure offers with competitive CPA rates. However, these often come with limited daily caps – a well-known pain point in the market. Other pain points include advertisers who are afraid of running into high costs, are reluctant to share other GEOs with advertising networks, or simply don’t trust you.
The problem of limited caps becomes even more apparent when resources allow affiliates to drive traffic in large volumes, and due to constant caps, partners have to gather dozens of offers at once in order to earn.
In this article, Betmen Affiliates and Marsa Team explain how to go about building relationships in the iGaming market. We discuss how the two companies worked using a spend-based traffic payment model with no volume limitation, and why such conditions are a real growth opportunity for affiliate marketers.
How Teams Typically Take on Offers and the Problems They Face
When an Affiliate Sales Manager agrees on an offer’s terms, rates and an offer’s technical aspects, the next step for partners is the test run. This usually involves 25-50 FTDs (first-time deposits). After the traffic is delivered, the advertiser checks the profitability over 1-2 weeks, analyzing player behavior, the percentage of bonuses that were used, and other metrics.
If the traffic quality is deemed suitable, the affiliate is given a small daily cap. The CPA rate, however, remains unchanged or increases slightly, resulting in little profit to the affiliate marketer in this collaboration.
We can see two issues with this partnership model:
1. Limited scaling opportunities. Very often, the advertiser may not be ready to provide a significant increase in the cap — for example, increasing to 70 daily FTDs instead of 50. Volumes such as these are insufficient for a large team of affiliate marketers. This means new offers must constantly be found, leaving the affiliate team to have to adapt to a new product and new conditions each time. Circumstances such as these make it hard to predict profits.
2. Even a converting offer might not be profitable. Let’s say an affiliate team has a good deal whereby they provide high-quality traffic and bring in a positive – though not high – ROI of 30%. With a volume of 50 daily FTDs, income is indeed insignificant. With a CPA of $100, in a month, an affiliate team could earn:
This offer results in a profit of around $1,000 per day. Working with the advertiser under these conditions is pointless if the offer can’t be scaled. However, if volumes were increased tenfold with profits of $349,000, the situation would certainly be more appealing, right?
The Uncapped Model Used by Marsa Team and Betmen Affiliates
To transition to an uncapped model, partners had to achieve a certain level of traffic quality without increasing the cost of acquiring deposits to critical levels. Team leads from both sides communicated regularly to solve problems together: they worked on targeting by excluding smaller cities, adapted age groups, and adjusted creative approaches. The Marsa Team was open to suggestions, and the quality of traffic started to improve.
Quality traffic always leads to higher lead costs, so Betmen Affiliates suggested that the Marsa team switch to a spend-based payment model and drive traffic at any volume – a proposal which was much more interesting and profitable than working on a CPA basis.
The spend-based model works like this: First, the GEO is selected, and the deposit price is set. Partners then receive a fixed percentage of their advertising expenses when they meet their target. The quality of the traffic is evaluated as a percentage based on the 14-day Deposit OAS (On Average Spend). For example, if you agreed on terms of 25% on the amount spent with a 70% 14-day Deposit OAS, you would earn $2,500 for every $10,000 spent on advertising.
The main difference with the spend-based model is that the same lead may cost $100 under a CPA model and twice as much when working on a spend-model. This means that the team sets its own cost per lead. The only condition is higher traffic quality: the advertiser will expect that these types of players will show better results than those acquired through CPA.
How to Get an Uncapped Offer and Other Traffic Conditions
We have two main recommendations:
- Build a relationship of trust with the advertiser. Approach requests to improve traffic quality not as a signal to terminate the offer but as an opportunity for long-term cooperation. The advertiser can always help with recommendations and advice — optimize campaigns together, and the partner will notice that you’re interested in mutual success.
- Test multiple approaches and analyze all available metrics. If you want to drive traffic using the spend-based model with no caps, you’ll need to find an approach that gives you the most cost-effective FTD acquisition price and provides the advertiser with the required quality.
It may take months before you and your partner come to a mutual understanding, but the numbers speak for themselves as it is well worth it!

Boomerang Partners
Overtime begins: Boomerang Partners launches the final stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026
The Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 by Boomerang Partners is moving into its decisive phase. The third and final stage of the tournament – titled “Overtime” – will run from 20 July to 31 August. It marks the last opportunity for participants to reshape the leaderboard and compete for the season’s main prize – an exclusive private dinner with a football legend in September 2026.
Overtime mechanics: points allocation
To intensify competition during the final stretch, Boomerang Partners is introducing an updated scoring system. From now on, affiliate teams will earn 3 points for every FTD generated on any partner brand from the Agency’s clients’ portfolio. In the previous stage, participants received 3 points for each sports FTD and 1 point for each online casino FTD. Now, the value of all FTDs is identical.
Overtime mechanics: performance boosts
Within the Overtime stage of the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026, a set of performance boosts remains active. These mechanics give participating teams the opportunity not only to catch up but also to overtake the leaders.
- Welcome Boost – x2 points for the first 14 days after entering the stage
- Lucky Five – +5 points for achieving 10 Casino FTDs per week
- Last Minutes Winner – x3 points during the final 7 days of Overtime
Martin Černý, CEO at Boomerang Partners said: “Overtime brings the Golden Boomerang Awards 2026 to its most competitive stage. At this point in the tournament, every result can influence the leaderboard, and teams still have the opportunity to improve their positions. We expect the final weeks to bring strong competition and determine the final standings.”
A final stretch where every day counts
With fewer than 40 days left in the GBA 2026, the competition enters its most volatile phase. The leaderboard remains open, and even small performance shifts can significantly alter final standings. Participants are now entering a stage where strategy, timing, and consistent activity define the outcome – and where the final push may determine the season’s ultimate winner.
Overtime has begun. TIME TO WIN THE TITLE.

The trophy has been lifted. Now comes the most interesting part for operators: counting the revenue, assessing what worked, learning from what didn’t, and deciding what to change before the next betting event.
On Thursday, August 20, at 4:00 p.m. CEST, GR8_TECH will host “The Locker Room: World Cup Numbers”, a closed-door benchmarking session created to help operators make sense of their tournament results and see how their performance stacked up against the room and the wider market.
Led by Dinos Doxiadis, Head of Sportsbook Business at GR8_TECH, the session will combine anonymized benchmarks with in-depth post-World Cup platform data on margin, player behavior, retention, and peak-load performance. It isn’t a tournament recap, but a working session built around deeper analysis than GR8_TECH releases publicly.
A First Look at the World Cup Numbers
Initial aggregated data from the GR8_TECH platform shows an average tournament margin of over 12%, alongside a significant increase in staking during the knockout stages.
Average stakes during the play-offs were 53% higher than during the group stage, while the average stake on the final was 89% above the tournament average.
Player interest was highly concentrated. Matches featuring Spain, Argentina, England, or France generated 42% of the total World Cup turnover. Argentina was the tournament’s most-bet-on team, accounting for 12.5% of all bets, although Spain finished only 0.09 percentage points behind Argentina by turnover.
The final also created one of the tournament’s most demanding operational moments. Within one minute of the final whistle, GR8_TECH’s platform settled more than half a million bets, demonstrating the level of processing performance required when a global audience reaches the same outcome simultaneously.
Inside The Locker Room, participants will examine what happened across:
- Live betting and bet builders
- Margin and staking dynamics
- Peak-load and settlement moments
- Acquisition compared with player reactivation
- Retention beyond the final whistle
- Unexpected geographic performance
- Operational, product, and campaign failures
- Priorities for the next major event
“The World Cup generates a huge amount of data, but the value comes from understanding what sits behind it,” said Dinos Doxiadis, Head of Sportsbook Business at GR8_TECH. “This session is about identifying the patterns operators might miss in their own reporting, challenging assumptions, and turning one month of World Cup activity into better decisions for future events.”
See How Your World Cup Stacked Up

ELA Games has released a new slot, Age of Cleopatra, adding another ancient-Egypt theme title to its portfolio. The studio positions the game as a medium-volatility release and says it is available to demo now.
Age of Cleopatra runs on a 5×3 reel set-up with 25 paylines. ELA Games lists RTP at 93.75% / 95.73%, with Buy Bonus RTP at 93.8% / 95.9%. The maximum win is x5000, according to the company.
In the base game, a Collect Symbol gathers coin prizes visible on the screen, while “colored coins” charge pyramids that can unlock additional value, ELA Games said. The slot’s Hold & Win Bonus Game awards three respins by default (or four in an “Extra Respin” version), with modifiers tied to collected coins.
Features named by the studio include Multipliers, Extra Respins, and an Expand Grid mechanic that increases the layout from 3×5 to 5×5. ELA Games also states that multiple features can trigger at the same time.
“You can’t do justice to a legendary theme with just background art. Building a world around Cleopatra meant it had to feel truly authentic, a standard we apply to all our releases. At ELA Games, we consistently look beyond the visuals to craft an original universe, keeping storytelling through the mechanics at the center of our titles.” Marharyta Yerina, Managing Director at ELA Games.
