Short answer
Bonza7 pays affiliates 5% to 8.5% of weekly net loss, split across six tiers. The tier depends on combined weekly net loss across Crikey7, Bonza7 and Dinkum33 — not on Bonza7 alone. Payouts are every Monday for the prior week. At Tier 5 (AUD 30,001+ weekly net loss) and above, you choose between 100% Credit with ×3 wagering or 50% Cash and 50% Credit. 18+. Gamble responsibly.
The full 6-tier commission table
| Tier | Weekly net loss (AUD) | Commission | Payout format |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Under 5,000 | 5% | Credit (×3 wagering) |
| 2 | 5,000 – 10,000 | 6% | Credit (×3 wagering) |
| 3 | 10,001 – 20,000 | 7% | Credit (×3 wagering) |
| 4 | 20,001 – 30,000 | 8% | Credit (×3 wagering) |
| 5 | 30,001 – 40,000 | 8% | Cash or Credit choice |
| 6 | 40,001 – 50,000 | 8.5% | Cash or Credit choice |
Tiers are applied whole-band — if your combined weekly net loss lands in Tier 3, the 7% rate applies to the entire weekly total, not just the portion above the Tier 2 threshold.
What "net loss" means (and what it does not)
Net loss is referral deposits minus withdrawals during the Monday-to-Sunday commission week, across all three MatesWin brands combined. It is the real-money figure after paybacks — not gross turnover.
- ✅ Counts: cash deposits that clear, Crypto deposits that settle, bank transfers settled in the week.
- ❌ Does not count: bonus funds, free spins, tournament prize credits, reversed transactions, failed deposits.
- ⚠️ Withdrawals reduce net loss: a referral depositing AUD 2,000 and withdrawing AUD 1,500 in the same week contributes AUD 500 net loss, not AUD 2,000.
Worked examples
Example 1 — small affiliate week. Five active referrals across Crikey7, Bonza7 and Dinkum33 with combined weekly net loss of AUD 3,200. That lands in Tier 1 (under AUD 5,000). Commission = 5% × AUD 3,200 = AUD 160 Credit with ×3 wagering required before withdrawal.
Example 2 — mid-size affiliate week. Combined weekly net loss of AUD 18,500 — that falls in Tier 3 (10,001–20,000). Commission = 7% × AUD 18,500 = AUD 1,295 Credit with ×3 wagering. Just a few thousand more in net loss and you reach Tier 4 (8%).
Example 3 — top tier with cash. Combined weekly net loss of AUD 42,000 — Tier 6. Commission = 8.5% × AUD 42,000 = AUD 3,570. You can take this as 100% Credit (×3 wagering, AUD 10,710 playthrough), or elect 50% Cash plus 50% Credit: AUD 1,785 Cash (no wagering) + AUD 1,785 Credit (×3 wagering = AUD 5,355 playthrough).
Cash or Credit — how to choose
The Cash option is the first thing most affiliates ask about, but it is not automatically the right pick. A quick rule of thumb:
- Take 100% Credit if you personally play and intend to wager anyway. Credit converts to cash through normal play and the ×3 requirement is light against real turnover volumes.
- Take 50% Cash + 50% Credit if you do not play (or play rarely) and want realised income. The Cash half pays out immediately with no wagering; the Credit half can be used for future promotions on Bonza7 or the sister brands.
The choice is made at payout time, not at signup. You can switch week to week.
Why tiers combine across all three brands
This is the single most misunderstood part of the structure: Bonza7 referrals do not compete with Crikey7 or Dinkum33 referrals. They add together. The weekly net loss figure that decides your tier is the sum across all three brands.
That means promoting the full MatesWin trio gets you to higher tiers (7%, 8%, 8.5%) faster than promoting Bonza7 alone. A Bonza7-only affiliate running at AUD 8,000 weekly net loss stays at 6%. The same affiliate who also promotes Crikey7 and Dinkum33, picking up AUD 4,000 combined from those, hits AUD 12,000 and moves to 7% — earning 17% more on the same first AUD 8,000 plus full 7% on the additional AUD 4,000.
