Affiliate Disclosure

In the interest of full transparency and in compliance with advertising regulations, Amar Club (https://amarclub.bet/) provides this comprehensive disclosure about our affiliate relationships and how we earn revenue from the content and recommendations on our website.

What Is Affiliate Marketing?

Definition: Affiliate marketing is a performance-based marketing arrangement where businesses (affiliates) earn commissions by promoting other companies’ products or services. When customers click on affiliate links and subsequently make purchases or sign up for services, the affiliate receives a commission payment.

Our Role: Amar Club operates as an affiliate marketer in the online gambling industry. We partner with various gambling operators, casinos, sports betting platforms, and related service providers to earn commissions when our users engage with these platforms through our referral links.

Revenue Model: Our primary revenue comes from affiliate commissions rather than direct payments from users. This allows us to provide our content and services free of charge to our audience while maintaining our operations through commercial partnerships.
