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!

Where to Get an Uncapped Offer?
At Betmen Affiliates, we aim for long-term and mutually beneficial cooperation. All you need to do is bring in quality traffic, and in return, we’ll purchase all your traffic volume. Register on the Betmen Affiliates website to kickstart a productive, successful collaboration.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, will moderate a panel at The Blockchain show on 29^th June, bringing together experts from entertainment, location-based gaming, and content localisation to examine what it takes to build sustainable gaming ecosystems across emerging markets.

The panel, titled “Global Gaming Expansion: Lessons from Untapped Markets,” will structure its discussion across four themes: the growth dynamics reshaping emerging gaming markets; the role of localisation in creating experiences that genuinely connect with new audiences; the infrastructure and communities needed to build gaming ecosystems beyond the game itself; and the lessons and opportunities that will define successful expansion in the years ahead.

Alona Shevtsova plans to frame the discussion around the central challenge for companies looking to expand globally: entering a new market requires far more than bringing an existing product to a new audience. Understanding local cultures, building communities, adapting experiences, and creating ecosystems that allow gaming to grow sustainably are all as important as the product itself.

Alona Shevtsova, CEO of Sends, said:

“The future growth of gaming will come not only from new technologies, but from understanding people — their cultures, communities, and the experiences they want to be part of. Successful expansion will belong to those who can combine global ambition with local understanding.”

The first segment will examine why regions including the Middle East, Africa, and South Asia are becoming increasingly significant for developers, operators, and investors — driven by young audiences, accelerating digital adoption, and new entertainment models creating substantial growth potential. Panellists will explore how consumer preferences differ across markets and what trends among younger audiences are shaping the future of gaming and entertainment.

The third segment will broaden the lens beyond the game itself, exploring the role of location-based entertainment, gaming centres, esports, and experiential destinations in attracting new audiences and building long-term communities. Panellists plan to address how entertainment ecosystems — spanning physical venues, events, and community infrastructure — accelerate gaming adoption in markets where the category is still establishing itself.

Earlier this month, Alona Shevtsova was shortlisted for the 2026 Great British Entrepreneur Awards in the Established Business of the Year category. Her team is also preparing for the Fintech Connect conference in London later this year. Sends will be a leading sponsor of this event.
