GPWA Times Magazine - Issue 50 - August 2021

When it comes to payments, I am getting really mad. There are a lot of decent people in the industry, whom affiliate programs do not trust or just take their traffic and players and stop paying them at some point. Like for example, last year there was a massive problem with Skrill, when coming to with- drawals to BG Bank accounts. There was a thread, I have created in order to prevent people to lose money and nerves like I did. Being part of the community helped me to be more accurate. When I need advice or just to see useful information, I follow several members who have more experience than I do. The forum is not about taking, but giving and sharing your knowledge and experience. Gpwa.org helped me to growmy business in several ways. I bought and created the site nedbets.com, have learned a lot about SEO, backlinks and crypto culture as a whole. My business has grown because I know now more and more people, who are keen and full of enthusiasm in all they do and never give up. CV to a company that had an office in Bulgaria, called titanpoker.com, and got invited to an interview. My first position in the industry was customer support for poker with English language. It was back in 2008. My previous jobs were in the tourism sector. I was working on the re- ception desk on several 4-Star hotels in my birth city, Sofia. How much has being an avid gam- bler helped you as an iGaming af- filiate and why? Being hungry and cautious brought me enough knowledge to know where and how to hunt for a profit as a gambler and commissions as an affil- iate. I have been working many years as a sports trader and I know the mentality of all well-known groups like: high roll- ers, stake (bonus) hunters, value bettors, robot betting guys and the guys who we call in the industry “markers” – because they mark all the mistakes on pre-match and live game. I must also not forget to mention the bettors who place stakes on fixed games. The industry has changed dramat- ically since you started. How have you managed to survive this long? Reading and getting knowledge from dif- ferent sources. I am always open to know and learn more, how to be a better punter and smarter affiliate. Also, first thing in the morning, I open the gpwa.org forum to see the new trends, which programs have closed and which are delayed with payments. Speaking of our forums, since joining the GPWA in 2017, you have been very active and always willing to offer your advice and expertise. Tell us why you are so generous with your comments and how being part of the GPWA community has helped you and your business. The first and most important reason is to help people. I know how hard it was for me back in the days, even when I started betting and gambling in betting shops in Bulgaria. The right info can save you troubles, money and make you more focused on the other things you do or you are devoted to. 53 G P W A t i m e s . o r g
