CPA, rev share

How it works
The arithmetic, in plain English
Players
Each month the same number of new players qualify. A share of every month’s players stays active the following month, so the active base builds and then levels off.
CPA
Paid once for each new qualifying player, whatever they go on to do. The affiliate’s income is certain; the operator carries the risk of how players turn out.
Revenue share and carryover
A percentage of each month’s net revenue. If a month is negative and carryover applies, the shortfall is deducted from later months before anything more is paid.
This is a simplified model for comparing deal shapes, not a forecast or financial advice. Read CPA vs revenue share and negative carryover explained for how real programmes differ.
