AFFILIATE PROGRAM INTERVIEW Please tell us a little about yourself. How long have you been working in the industry and in N1 Partners? I’ve been working in affiliate marketing for over six years. For a year and a half now, I’ve been a member of the N1 Partners team in the role of Affiliate Manager. Even though I have a technical education, I’ve always been drawn to marketing because it’s a nice mix of creativity, communication, and partnership. I work remotely and regularly attend industry conferences. In 2025, that included iGB L!VE London, SBC Summit Lisbon, and SiGMA Central Europe in Rome. N1 Partners operates globally, and our team brings together professionals from all over the world. At the moment, I live and work in Warsaw. Recently, I’ve also taken on a new responsibility outside of work. My boyfriend and I got a pet dog — our wonderful Rooney, who makes every day a little more fun and a lot more active. How did you first get started in digital marketing, and what led you to the iGaming space? I entered the industry back in 2019, starting as an Account Manager in an ad network. We worked with different ad formats like push, pops, and native, so I had a chance to test almost every vertical. Over time, the gambling vertical interested me the most. Here, you can dive deeper into the product itself, and understand player behavior.

She brings a mix of technical know-how, curiosity, and a real passion for working with people, which shows in the way she builds relationships and helps partners grow. In this issue’s Affiliate Program Interview, Daria talks about how she found her way into the industry and why N1 Partners’ multi-brand setup keeps her work interesting. The conversation touches on everything from transparency and analytics to travel, conferences, and even life with her energetic dog, Rooney. GPWAtimes.org 62
