Kings of Advidi (“The Contest”) is an initiative of Advidi - Bang! Media Group B.V (“The Company”) registered at Watertorenplein 8 1051 PA Amsterdam. As an affiliate (“Participant”) taking part in The Contest, you agree with the Affiliate Terms and Conditions of The Company, and with the terms and conditions of the contest. The Contest will be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of The Netherlands and Parties submit the jurisdiction of the courts of Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Contest details and terms and conditions
Only affiliates who are active participants in the Advidi performance marketing network (Advidi) may become Participants in The Contest. Active affiliates who joined Advidi before 1 December 2022 will compete in 5 different categories, each defined by the type of traffic they send to: Dating, Nutra, iGaming and Mainstream (Sweepstakes, eCommerce and Antivirus). New affiliates who join the network during the period of the competition, or who joined the network after 1 December 2022 or who have not generated more than $500 in the past 6 months, will compete in the “Newcomer” category. Both groups of affiliates are eligible to compete in the “Wild Card” raffles. The Will Card raffles will be determined through a draw. There will be a total of two Wild Card raffles.

The contest starts on 1 February 2023 and ends on 1 April 2023, CET. Each affiliate or company may only win in one category. In case one affiliate wins in two or three categories, the next runner-up from those categories will be selected to replace the slot.

The Company offers as a prize to the winners in each category an all-expenses-paid trip to Amsterdam from 25 April 2023 to 28 April 2023 (3 nights). 7 total winners will be chosen from 5 different categories: Top Dating Affiliate (the affiliate who earns the most points from Advidi Dating offers from 1 February - 1 April 2023); Top Nutra Affiliate (the affiliate who earns the most points from Advidi Nutra offers from 1 February - 1 April 2023); Top iGaming Affiliate (the affiliate who earns the most points from Advidi iGaming offers from 1 February - 1 April 2023); Top Mainstream Affiliate (the affiliate who earns the most points from Advidi Sweepstakes, eCommerce and Antivirus offers from 1 February - 1 April 2023); Top Newcomer (the affiliate who earns the most points in any vertical and who joined Advidi network no earlier than 1 December 2022 or has not generated more than $500 in the past 6 months); and two Wild Cards (a randomly selected additional winner; each point earned during the competition receives one entry into the random drawing). Each winner in each category must have reached a threshold of $60,000 in revenue generated in the course of The Contest in order to be eligible for the prize.

The points will be calculated based on the revenue that each participant earns with The Company in the period of the Contest. Every $1000 in revenue will earn one point. In the case that the top 2 Participants have an equal number of points, the Participant who has generated more revenue toward the next point as of the last day of the Contest will earn an additional point and will be considered the winner.

Additional points can be earned through boosters. There are 4: The King of Diamonds, The Queen of Clubs, The Jack of Hearts and The Ace of Spades.

The King of Diamonds - Beat your personal Advidi record and earn 30% extra points. So, if your all-time record with Advidi is $80k, then you will get 24 additional points. We’ll be looking at your most profitable months with Advidi over the last 3 years and will reward 30% worth of bonus points if you’re able to outperform. If you do this in both months, February and March, we’ll add 30% over the two months.

The Queen of Clubs - Why not make the competition interesting by referring a friend? We’ll go one better - for every friend you refer we’ll give you 2 extra points. The catch? The referred affiliate must earn at least $1k in revenue to make it count.

The Jack of Hearts  - Every second Friday throughout the competition we will be sending a midnight mail (CET). Keep your eyes on your inbox because all traffic sent to offers listed in our Friday newsletters will earn double points.

The Ace of Spades - All in all, there are four cycles of two weeks across the competition. If your revenue is higher than the previous cycle at the end of a 2-week period then the points earned will be increased by 10%.

Prizes are only applicable during the timeframe 25 - 28 April 2023 in Amsterdam, the Netherlands. The winners will be chosen based on points earned through revenue (chargebacks / refunds excluded) and additional points earned through The Contest, confirmed by The Company and generated during the timeframe 1 February - 1 April 2023, and only if the eligibility threshold has been reached per Participant. Winners will be contacted and informed by 3 April 2023 at the latest. If the winner of a category has not reached the minimum eligibility threshold, The Company reserves the right to appoint a new winner for that category.

In case of breach of the terms and conditions, or in case of non-compliance, fraud or any other kind of damage towards The Company and/or its partners, The Company reserves the right to exclude the Participant from the contest with immediate effect. When excluded from the contest, the Participant may not claim any kind of compensation from The Company.
