How Scalable Blockchains Can Change the iGaming Affiliate Industry for the Better
Recently, iGaming pioneer Calvin Ayre called on the online gambling industry to go all-in on BSV blockchain. This blockchain is the original blockchain protocol restored and is associated with Ayre and the man who he believes to be Satoshi Nakamoto, Dr. Craig Steven Wright.
Ayre and others have outlined how BSV, or blockchains in general, can have positive impacts on the iGaming business. In this piece, we’ll zoom in on how it could impact the iGaming affiliate sector.
Immutable Audit Trails
As the hype around blockchains dies down, and speculation on token prices reaches what may well be the peak, many are beginning to figure out what this technology is and how it can be applied to industries to make them better, more efficient, and more honest.
“Blockchains are essentially distributed databases,” said Leo Twin from GamblersPro.com. “They have the potential to end disputes between affiliate program operators and affiliates themselves over shaving players, failing to report accurately, etc. Everything would be time-stamped and visible on public blockchains, giving affiliates the ability to track and verify player activity for themselves.”
Immutable audit trails have wider implications than this. They could help operators flag compliance violations in real-time and make evidence easy to find and present when they’re wrongly accused of violations by regulators. This could lead to a lot of savings in terms of both time and money for both parties.
Real-Time Payouts
Wouldn’t it be amazing if affiliates could receive commissions on a per-bet basis rather than days or weeks after the end of the month? That’s possible on blockchains with micro-fees.
On blockchains like BSV, the average fee is $0.0001 per transaction, and the fees can get a lot lower as miners lower their fee per byte in the face of demand. This makes it possible to distribute the profits of each wager to multiple wallets in real-time, with the affiliate getting their 20% on the spot rather than waiting for the cashier to clear it at the end of the month.
Of course, there are still issues to solve here. How would negative carryover work, and would it even be economically feasible for casinos to pay bets on a per bet basis? “I don’t see why not,” Leo Twin told us. “When you think about it, deciding that the cutoff points are at the end of a month is arbitrary. Why not every week or quarter? It’s up to the program to decide and solve the associated problems.”
While real-time payments might not work for everyone, it’s easy to imagine how automated payouts combined with faster payouts for affiliates would lead some programs to gain a competitive edge over others.
“When micropayments become possible, it opens up a world of new avenues we can go down,” Twin told us. “The only limit is your imagination.”
Summary
These are only two of the ways in which scalable blockchains can revolutionize the affiliate industry. There are plenty of others. If even these two changes were implemented, it would change things for the better for all stakeholders; affiliates, program managers, and regulators would all save time, money, and energy. For that reason, it’s worth it for forward-thinking affiliate programs to assess their options and plan for the future in the blockchain revolution.

Management Buyout Successfully Completed at ReferOn
ReferOn, an affiliate management platform for the iGaming sector, today revealed the successful conclusion of a management buyout. Former General Manager Alex Bukin purchases the platform, moving the company into its next stage of independent growth. Bukin will take on the position of Chief Executive Officer (CEO) to advance the company.
Assessing the platform’s path three years after its launch, Alex Bukin, CEO of ReferOn remarked: “This is a significant moment for ReferOn and marks the start of a new phase for the company.” The management buyout offers us the long-term perspective needed to consistently enhance the platform. We uphold our dedication to product development, enhancing our solutions for partners, and facilitating ReferOn’s ongoing expansion in significant markets.
The acquisition comes after a significant phase of advancement for the firm. Established on a base of operational effectiveness and scalable technology, ReferOn persists in expanding its footprint throughout the industry. In its initial year, the platform announced 35.7 million clicks, 2.4 million sign-ups, 18,000 affiliates, and 136,000 active trackers. The company’s extensive range of tools enhances flexibility for operators and affiliates, generating momentum that recently led to ReferOn being recognized as the “Best Affiliate Platform” in 2025 and 2026 by key industry players.
This change will not impact daily operations; assistance and current collaborations will continue as normal. As part of its continuous growth strategy, ReferOn is enhancing its product lineup with the introduction of new features, such as Refie, the integrated interface layer of the platform. The platform continually improves user experience and security via dynamic reporting, Company Grouping, Sub-Affiliation, Independent Deal Calculation (IDC), two-factor authentication (2FA), and thorough mobile optimization.
To maintain operational continuity, the current leadership team stays intact, guaranteeing stability as the company moves into its next phase of growth. With Bukin’s appointment as CEO, Vlad Bondarenko has moved from Head of Product to Chief Product Officer, and David Harris, who was previously Operations Lead, has become Chief Operations Officer. As the organization embarks on its next phase, it continues to prioritize equipping operators with top-tier tools and a dedication to providing the future of affiliate management.

The first tournament of the N1 Traffic Cups series, N1 SEO Traffic Cup, has ended.
Over the course of two months, more than 300 teams drove SEO traffic to N1 Partners casino and betting brands, competing for prizes and demonstrating the efficiency of their strategies.
Learn which teams made it to the top and their levels, key facts and figures, as well as comments from the winners about their experiences, strategies, and results achieved.
N1 SEO Traffic Cup in figures: prizes and participants
It is important to note that the teams’ results were evaluated not only in terms of traffic volumes but also in terms of scaling and diversifying traffic between several brands.
Tournament in figures:
- 14 teams reached the prize levels;
- 54 teams with Participant status that are not included in the prize levels will participate in an additional prize draw;
- 300+ teams drove SEO traffic during the tournament.
Among the prizes at various levels are attending top global sporting events – from F1 in Monaco to the 2026 FIFA World Cup matches in the USA; flying in zero gravity; an all-inclusive dream vacation in the Maldives; BMW and Ducati bikes; Apple gadgets; Cartier jewellery; Rolex watches and much more.
Alexa Bond, Head of Affiliates at N1 Partners, also notes the importance of the event for the company and partners: “N1 Traffic Cups is a reflection of how we see the promo: with transparent mechanics, an emphasis on real results and the opportunity for partners to scale and earn more. This is not just a promo; it is a motivation system for our partners.
The N1 SEO Traffic Cup has once again proved the value of a strong partnership: the high engagement, expertise, and strong results of the participants show that such events are equally effective for both partners and N1 Partners, building long-term interest, trust, and mutual engagement.”
Winners’ shortlist
Two months of competition, scaling, and testing to ensure that only the strongest remain in the finals. Below are the teams that have reached the prize levels and are among the winners of the N1 SEO Traffic Cup.
Depending on the number of points scored, participants reached one of four prize levels with rewards worth: €25,000, €15,000, €7,000, and €5,000 per team, based on their final tournament ranking.
Winners about N1 SEO Traffic Cup
How the tournament unfolded, what motivated the winners to keep climbing higher through the ranks, and the emotions they experienced along the way — told firsthand by the participants of the N1 SEO Traffic Cup.
Alfaleads Network
“Our result became possible due to a combination of factors: firstly, we specialise in SEO traffic and have many strong and stable SEO partners, both large and small. In addition, we would like to note that the N1 products have good CRs, so we got a real win-win here.
For our team, the coolest prize at Level 3 is the Kronos massage chair. In our field, sometimes you just want to switch off and exhale, so this is the most relevant thing. Moreover, such a chair will definitely never be empty in the office,” emphasises the Alfaleads Network team, Level 3 winners.
Advertise
«Strong products, competitive conditions, and a team that’s always ready to help and quickly resolve any issues are what truly motivate performance in N1 Partners promos.
We took part in the N1 Puzzle Promo last year and were excited to join the N1 SEO Traffic Cup this time. Back then, the main prize was a helicopter, along with additional rewards available throughout the tournament. This year’s level-based format with different prize categories is a smart move — it allows you to choose rewards based on your preferences.
At our Level 4, the most appealing prize is Apple glasses. However, for us, the most practical option is the cash reward, which we’ll use to reward the entire team that contributed to the final result,” said a representative of Advertise, a Level 4 prize winner.
RevenueLab
“In many ways, our result is about a combination of product understanding and constant work with traffic. When you know the strengths of the offers, it is much easier to find the right traffic for them and build working links.
We tried to analyse traffic from the web more deeply, look at user behaviour, see the quality of sources and how stable the result is over time. Everything that showed potential was quickly scaled up, but weak bundles were not kept — they were either refined or disabled.
Of course, interaction with N1 managers played a big role: there was always quick feedback, openness to hypotheses discussion and help with optimisation, which greatly accelerated the work.
As a result, it was this combination of product expertise, analytics, and live communication that produced this result.
In our segment, the MacBook looks the coolest, but each prize offered is unique. Separately, we would like to note that N1 always has the best gifts and rewards!” the RevenueLab team, the winner of Level 4, comments.
For teams with Participant status who did not enter the prize levels of the tournament, scoring from 20 to 499 points, an additional prize draw was held — PlayStation 5 Pro, iPhone 17 Pro Max and exclusive N1 Partners merch.
The results can be found in the N1 Partners Instagram on May 8th!
