SOFTSWISS’ Checklist for Smooth Affiliate Marketing Platform Migration

Enhanced features, stronger security and lower costs are key reasons for migrating from one affiliate marketing platform to another. Affilka by SOFTSWISS, a leading affiliate tracking software provider, shares tips for a smooth migration process.
The checklist prepared by Affilka by SOFTSWISS experts will help make the migration process clearer and safer, streamlining cooperation with a new software provider.
Pre-Migration
At this stage, goal setting, data selection and communication issues are of the highest priority. Affilka by SOFTSWISS’ team suggests operators start with:
- Clarifying the desired objectives and outcomes of migration and identifying the key metrics to track before, during, and after the process.
- Determining specific data to migrate, including player and partner history.
- Assigning a dedicated person within its team to streamline communication with platform provider specialists during the migration.
Migration
The primary aspects to address during the migration process include ensuring that all stakeholders are fully informed and aware of the process, preparing mapping files, and configuring the system. At this point, the required steps are:
- Informing all stakeholders about the migration schedule, timeline and any potential downtime.
- Collecting and formatting all necessary mapping files according to the new platform’s requirements. The data must be clean, accurate, and up-to-date.
- Configuring the new platform settings, including commission plans and referral links, to ensure that all integrations with other systems function correctly.
Post-Migration
At the post-migration stage, effective communication with affiliates, organisation of training, and post-migration monitoring are imperative for facilitating subsequent operational success. After the migration, Affilka by SOFTSWISS’ experts recommend the following:
- Notifying affiliates about the migration. This allows them to update their referral links promptly, minimising the need for additional player migrations later.
- Offering training sessions for affiliates and operator personnel on using the new platform and providing comprehensive guides and information resources, which can facilitate further operations.
- Monitoring the system for any post-migration issues and gathering feedback from affiliates and staff. These actions can help identify the areas for improvement.
Implementing these steps will help ensure a successful migration, minimising disruptions and maximising the benefits of the new system.
Anastasia Borovaya, Head of Affilka by SOFTSWISS, summarises: “The migration timeframe depends on how quickly the client prepares the mapping files. More data means a longer process, but it typically takes a few weeks for preparation and a few hours for migration to the production environment. Quick and clear communication with the client’s team is essential for a successful migration. When the client responds promptly and clearly, the migration progresses smoothly as planned.”

The Danish Gambling Authority Warns of Money Laundering Risks When Using Affiliates

The Danish Gambling Authority has become aware that money laundering can occur through affiliates who market for gambling operators. Gambling operators that use affiliates should therefore consider whether this gives rise to updating their risk assessment.
An affiliate is a marketing channel where a person or company makes money by marketing for, for example, a gambling operator. The general consumer protection and marketing rules and the Gambling Act’s rules on marketing and communication also apply to affiliates. An affiliate earns money from the agreement by, for example, attracting new customers via their own website or through their own social network to the gambling operator’s website with a link. The link is generated specifically for the affiliate. The affiliate receives payment for the referral (pay per click), or a certain percentage of the amount the new customer deposits into their account.
How criminals can exploit affiliate agreements with gambling operators
In affiliate agreements with an individual or a company, there is an inherent risk that a gambling operator will be misused for money laundering. Particularly organized criminal networks can exploit an affiliate agreement. Networks of organized criminals can refer a large number of people within their criminal network as customers using the link to a gambling operator. A larger amount of illegal funds can be deposited into customers’ gambling accounts, which will not initially look suspicious, as the amount is distributed among several people in the criminal’s network. The deposited funds can subsequently be paid out to customers, possibly after play-through from their gambling accounts. This approach will make it look like legitimate winnings from gambling, and at the same time the affiliate increases its profit by having brought more new customers to the gambling operator, who according to the affiliate agreement is usually paid per additional new customer.
Signs of money laundering through affiliates
The Danish Gambling Authority points out that gambling operators may risk being misused for money laundering through these affiliate agreements. It may indicate that a gambling operator is being misused for money laundering by its affiliate if a majority of the customers referred by the affiliate only use the gambling operator’s website once and then no longer use the gambling operator’s services. It may therefore be relevant to assess whether entering into an affiliate agreement gives rise to updating one’s risk assessment.
