GPWA forum registrations pass the 9,000 mark! We're pleased to announce that the GPWA passed the 9,000 registered member mark this week! We have quite a crowd here now with more active members than any other iGaming affiliate site. Our growth has accelerated significantly over the past year. It was less than six months ago that we passed the 8,000 registered member mark, and we have averaged nearly 200 new registered members each month over the past year. Thank you for your continued support. New Affiliate Program Warning forum section Historically when we no longer have a sponsor relationship with a program, we have moved forum threads for those programs to a special section and set the forums so no further activity is allowed. However, we have decided programs that are not sponsors, but still have outstanding complaints, should remain open for further communication about the complaints. For more information and a direct link to this new section, follow this thread. The GPWA is excited to announce AffStorm as a new sponsor. They are pleased to be helping our industry grow as new members of the GPWA!
