EPS Partners review: CPA up to $300, RevShare up to 60% and NNCO on EpicStar traffic

Cover image for article reviewing the EPS Partners EpicStar affiliate program

EPS Partners is a direct advertiser’s affiliate program working two verticals at once — gambling and betting — through a single product, EpicStar. Partners get three payment models: CPA up to $300, RevShare up to 60%, and Hybrid, with CPA and Hybrid terms agreed individually depending on GEO, traffic source, and quality. EpicStar operates under an Anjouan license.

The program launched in 2026 and is built around CIS and Eastern European GEO — RU, UA, KZ, UZ, MD plus the CEE and Balkan cluster (PL, CZ, HU, RO, SK, SI, RS, MK, BA, ME, BG, HR). Traffic sources accepted range from PPC and SEO to ASO/UAC, social, SMS, email, push, and streaming, which makes it workable for both SEO affiliates sitting on aged casino sites and media buying teams pushing paid traffic. Payouts go out in crypto straight from the affiliate panel, minimum $20 — a comfortable threshold for testing a funnel.

If you want to test the product, you can sign up here and agree your GEO, source, and rate with a manager before the first click lands.

Pros and cons

The short version: strong headline rates, three models to pick from, NNCO on RevShare, and a GEO list that covers both CIS and the Balkans. The program works with one brand and agrees caps and approvals individually with each partner.

+CPA up to $300 per FTD, with the exact rate agreed per GEO and source;
+RevShare up to 60% on EpicStar casino and betting activity;
+NNCO on RevShare - a negative balance does not carry over into the next reporting period;
+Three models available: CPA, RevShare, and Hybrid, so you can match the model to your funnel;
+Gambling and betting in one program under a single product - one account, one dashboard;
+17 GEO covering CIS, CEE, and the Balkans;
+Broad source list: PPC, SEO, ASO/UAC, Social, SMS, Email, Push, Streaming;
+last-referrer attribution - useful for SEO assets with long decision cycles;
+In-house platform with real-time stats and postback setup through your manager;
+Crypto withdrawals straight from the affiliate panel with a $20 minimum - a comfortable threshold for testing a funnel;
+Admin fee stated upfront at 14%, so RevShare math is clear before launch;
−Single product in the portfolio, so A/B testing between brands inside one program is not an option;
−Brand traffic on EpicStar is not allowed, so PPC keyword lists have to be built around generic and category queries;
−New CPA partners start on a 20-30 FTD test period, which is how the program selects quality partners before volumes open up.

Offers and payment models

EPS Partners runs one main product — EpicStar, split into Casino and Betting directions. Instead of a long offer wall, you get a single brand with three monetization models and individually agreed rates, so the work shifts from picking offers to negotiating terms.

CPA goes up to $300 per FTD. That is a ceiling, not a default: final CPA and Hybrid terms depend on GEO, traffic source, and traffic quality. A tier-1 CEE GEO with clean SEO traffic and a push campaign on a CIS GEO will not be priced the same way, and the number you land on is whatever you agree with your manager.

Model Terms Notes
CPA Up to $300 per FTD Individual by GEO, source, and traffic quality; test cap 20-30 FTD for new partners
RevShare Up to 60% NNCO applies — negative balance is not carried forward
Hybrid Individual CPA + RevShare mix agreed with the manager

The NNCO condition deserves attention if you are a RevShare player. If a cohort goes into negative in a given month because of a large win, that minus is wiped at the end of the reporting period instead of eating into your next payout. For small to mid traffic volumes on high-limit GEO, that difference matters a lot more than a couple of percentage points on the rate itself.

Brand traffic on EpicStar is off the table, so PPC buyers need to build their keyword lists around generic and category queries rather than the brand name. CPA traffic with no gaming activity may also go unpaid — a straightforward quality filter that rewards volume with real depositing players rather than registration churn.

Payment terms

Key numbers and terms of EPS Partners at a glance

Payouts run on a calendar month cycle: the reporting period closes at month end, and CPA payments are processed within 10 business days after that. The minimum withdrawal is 20 USD, paid in crypto directly from the affiliate platform, with a 14% admin fee applied.

Hold works as a quality gate rather than a blanket delay. CPA traffic goes through a quality check, and where needed an additional hold of up to 30 days may be applied. In practice that means the first payouts on a new source are the ones most likely to sit in review, and clean cohorts move faster once you have history in the program.

Two payment conditions are worth planning your campaigns around. Traffic above the agreed cap may not be paid, so if your campaign starts overdelivering, raise the cap with your manager before you scale rather than after. The same logic applies to CPA conversions with no gaming activity — if your funnel drives registrations and deposits but players never play, that volume may be excluded from the invoice. Both points are standard risk management for a direct advertiser, and both are easy to manage if you keep the manager in the loop during the test period.

What to discuss with your manager before running traffic

Since CPA and Hybrid rates here are agreed individually rather than published, the pre-launch conversation decides most of your unit economics. A few points worth locking in writing before the first click.

  • Your exact rate per GEO and source. The $300 figure is a maximum — get the specific number for your combination of GEO, funnel type, and expected volume.
  • The test cap and how it expands. New CPA partners start on 20-30 FTD. Ask what metrics (deposit average, activity rate, retention) move you past it and how fast the cap can be raised when a campaign performs.
  • Hold conditions. Clarify when the additional 30-day hold is applied, what triggers it, and what traffic profile keeps you out of it.
  • Quality criteria for “gaming activity”. Ask for the thresholds the advertiser uses to judge whether a CPA conversion counts, so you can filter on your side before sending volume.
  • RevShare math with the admin fee. Confirm how the 14% admin fee interacts with your percentage and how NNCO is calculated at period close.
  • Postback and attribution setup. Postbacks are configured through the manager — get them wired to your tracker before launch, and confirm how last-referrer attribution handles overlapping sources.
  • Creatives and localization. Ready-made creatives, localization, and custom design on request are available; agree turnaround times if your launch calendar is tight.
  • Current payment proofs. Request them from your manager along with the settlement schedule for your first reporting period.

Who it suits

EPS Partners fits affiliates working CIS and Eastern European gambling traffic who are comfortable agreeing terms directly instead of picking rates off a public offer list. The flexible model mix and favor long-horizon assets, while the test cap structure suits partners who can demonstrate quality on small volumes first.

SEO affiliates and content site owners. Last-referrer attribution are the key argument here — a casino review site or a Telegram channel keeps earning from a player who converts months after first contact. RevShare up to 60% with NNCO makes the long-tail play viable without carryover risk from a single big win.

Media buying teams on CIS and Balkan GEO. The source list covers PPC, push, social, SMS, email, and ASO/UAC, and CPA up to $300 gives room for paid traffic economics on the stronger GEO. Teams that can clear a 20-30 FTD test cap quickly and then agree a volume-based rate will get the most out of the setup.

Streamers and app traffic specialists also have a path in, given that streaming and ASO/UAC are on the approved list. The setup is built for partners running crypto settlement on a monthly cycle, with a single strong brand to concentrate traffic on rather than a split portfolio.

Conclusion

EPS Partners is a 2026-launched direct advertiser program built around one product, EpicStar, across casino and betting. The headline numbers — CPA up to $300, RevShare up to 60%, Hybrid on request — come with the caveat that final terms are agreed per GEO, source, and traffic quality, so treat them as a ceiling to aim for rather than a default. NNCO on RevShare, a $20 minimum, and crypto withdrawals straight from the panel make the terms practical for both SEO assets and paid media teams working CIS and Eastern Europe.

FAQ

How is the CPA rate up to $300 determined?

It is the program’s ceiling, not a flat rate. CPA and Hybrid terms are agreed individually based on GEO, traffic source, and traffic quality. Expect your actual rate to move toward the maximum as you build proven volume and player quality on a specific GEO.

What is NNCO and why does it matter on RevShare?

NNCO means a negative balance is not carried over into the next reporting period. If a player hits a big win and your cohort goes into minus for the month, that minus is cleared at period close rather than deducted from your following payout. For affiliates running modest volumes on high-limit GEO, this removes the main downside of RevShare.

How fast do payouts arrive?

The reporting period is a calendar month, and CPA payments are processed within 10 business days after the month closes. If a quality check requires it, an additional hold of up to 30 days may be applied to CPA traffic. Clarify with your manager what profile of traffic triggers the extra review.

What should I do if a payout is taking longer than expected?

First check whether your traffic is still in the quality review window, since the additional hold can stretch the timeline on new sources. Then contact your affiliate manager through Telegram, email, or Microsoft Teams with the specific period and amount. Keeping your own tracker logs and deposit data ready speeds up any reconciliation.

Can I get individual terms?

Yes — individual CPA and Hybrid terms are the standard route in this program. The variables are GEO, traffic source, and volume, so come to the conversation with concrete numbers: which GEO, which funnel, how many FTD per month you expect. Volume commitments are usually what unlock better rates.

What is the test cap and how long does it last?

New CPA partners start on a standard test cap of 20-30 FTD. That volume is used to assess player activity and quality before larger allocations open. Ask your manager which metrics they look at during the test and how quickly the cap can be raised once the numbers look good.

What happens if I send more traffic than the agreed cap?

Traffic above the agreed cap may not be paid. If a campaign starts overperforming, raise the cap with your manager before you scale spend rather than after the fact. A quick message in Telegram before a scaling step keeps all delivered volume inside the paid window.

Which GEO are available?

RU, UA, KZ, UZ, MD, PL, CZ, HU, RO, SK, SI, RS, MK, BA, ME, BG, HR — 17 markets across CIS, Central Europe, and the Balkans. Each GEO is approved with your manager before launch, together with your traffic source. Rates differ by GEO, so ask for the specific number on each one you plan to run.

Can I run PPC on the brand name?

No — brand traffic on EpicStar is prohibited. PPC buyers build around generic, category, and informational queries instead. Confirm your keyword approach with your manager before launch so the campaign runs inside the agreed rules from day one.

How are payouts made and is there a minimum?

Payouts are made in crypto, withdrawn directly from the affiliate platform. The minimum withdrawal amount is 20 USD, a comfortable threshold for cashing out a first test funnel. An admin fee of 14% applies, so include it in your model when calculating RevShare returns.

What tracking tools are available?

The program runs on an in-house affiliate platform with real-time statistics, and last-referrer attribution. Postbacks are configured through your affiliate manager, so request setup before your first campaign goes live. Lifetime cookie duration is a meaningful advantage for SEO and content traffic with long conversion windows.

Is promo support available?

Yes — ready-made creatives, localization, and custom design on request are part of the offering. Localization matters a lot across a 17-GEO list spanning CIS, CEE, and the Balkans, so use it rather than translating in-house. Agree delivery timelines with your manager if your launch schedule is fixed.
