Casino Guru, the leading information source and online casino database, has recently joined forces with AffPapa, the ultimate iGaming directory connecting affiliates and operators, to deliver a brand-new free professional course on affiliate management. The course, titled iGaming Affiliate Management Essentials, is the latest addition to the Casino Guru Academy and aims to contribute to a broader understanding of affiliate management while sharing best practices with the rest of the industry. Designed for everyone looking to enhance their knowledge of the iGaming affiliate landscape, the course caters to both aspiring affiliate managers and seasoned professionals.
With over 6,200 online casinos in its extensive database, Casino Guru is no stranger to affiliate management. Combined with AffPapa’s role as a facilitator in connecting operators and affiliate websites for a fruitful partnership, the course seamlessly combines the expertise of two prominent figures in the iGaming affiliation sector. In as little as 90 minutes, participants of the course can receive a certificate that not only backs up their knowledge of affiliate management essentials but also showcases their commitment to cultivating affiliate management best practices.
The course is structured into three chapters. While the first chapter aims to explain the fundamental principles of affiliate management, the second one incorporates insights from AffPapa, the ultimate iGaming directory, who drew inspiration from the expertise of their seasoned affiliate managers operating affiliate program management services for casinos. The third and final chapter offers a snapshot of activities related to affiliate management from the perspective of affiliate websites. This includes a detailed overview of how Casino Guru approaches affiliate business, including the company’s philosophy, values, and strategic vision when it comes to building and maintaining relationships with affiliates.
Šimon Vincze, Casino Guru’s Head of Sustainable & Safer Gambling, expressed his enthusiasm over the latest release of Casino Guru Academy: “I’m thrilled to announce the launch of this course and finally get it out there! Working with AffPapa has been a fantastic experience, and I’m glad we were able to bring their expertise with affiliate programs into the mix and offer yet another unique point of view. I’m confident that as individuals engage with the content, they’ll not only gain essential insights but also discover innovative approaches that can significantly impact their affiliate path in the future.”
Levon Nikoghosyan, AffPapa’s CEO & Co-Founder, commented: “We are thrilled to announce our collaboration with Casino Guru for the launch of their latest course on iGaming Affiliate Management. The kickoff of our affiliate management service last year was driven by the growing demand from our registered operators, leveraging our expertise in the field. Casino Guru’s commitment to educating the iGaming industry aligns seamlessly with our vision, and we are delighted to contribute our extensive knowledge in affiliate management to enhance this initiative.”
An exciting update accompanies the launch of the course – a brand new look featuring a completely redesigned system that enhances interactivity and flexibility across various devices. This marks a unique opportunity to witness the difference firsthand, as the revamped design will soon be applied to older courses as well. With the latest course now available online, Casino Guru Academy invites participants to uncover the world of iGaming affiliate management through the combined lens of Casino Guru and AffPapa.
