IGNITION - Burning Too Hot to Put Out

We are happy to announce that we will be extending our IGNITION for another month. The response we received to our IGNITION promotion was outstanding and has only added to the momentum building on the network and at CarbonPoker. Since April 15th, CarbonPoker has seen an increase in ring rake of over 100%! In fact, with the arrival of thousands of new players, the Merge Gaming Network as a whole has been humming with activity.

So if you haven't already, email support@pdcaffiliates.com to opt-in to IGNITION now and earn sweet prizes-on top of your normal earnings-for referring players and affiliates until the end of May.

NOTE: If you opted-in in April don't worry about opting-in again, you're already on our list for May. You can look forward to an email from us in early May explaining what your referrals up to April 30th already qualified you for and with some ideas of how to use your winnings.

Tinderbox

On April 15th, the Merge Gaming Network will experience one of the single largest influxes of players ever in online gaming as thousands migrate from such sites as Sportsbook.com to capitalize on our tremendous product.

Overnight CarbonPoker will see massive increases in rake, guaranteed tournaments, and affiliate revenue. Our brands and affiliates are about to ignite a new level of success - join us in fanning the flames.

If you've heard enough, opt-in to the promotion now by emailing support@pdcaffiliates.com. Otherwise read on and get your promotional fires stoked - this is one fire that won't be going out anytime soon.

Feel The Warmth

Once you've sent an email to support@pdcaffiliates.com opting into the promotion we'll reply with a confirmation. From there, it's just a matter of deciding how to use your coupon or coupons to our brand new $10,000 Daily Guaranteed Tournament.

There are a few great ways to use the coupons you've earned:

1. Freeroll - always popular with players, you can post your coupons as prizes in freerolls for your players only. You can request a custom tournament by using our Tournament Request Form or you can simply send us an email indicating the date at time (EST) and we'll set up a standard Texas Holdem tournament with exclusive entry to your players.
2. Buy-In - A great way to capitalize on your new sign ups is to get them playing with real money by buying into a game with the coupons you've earned added to the prize pool.
3. Player Appreciation - one way you can use any $60 Satellite Coupon is by splitting it into five $11 Satellite Coupons. With five individual coupons you could choose to reward the five players who have signed up through your links directly by emailing support@pdcaffiliates.com and indicating that you'd like to thank your sign ups - we'll handle the rest.

These are just a few suggestions, and there are many other ways to use your prizes, from league prizes to novelty giveaways to thank yous for players who are especially active on your site. Get in touch and we are always happy to adapt your prizes to the use that suits you best!
