BTAG Masters Closed?

**edcarter89** · 11 December 2023, 9:52 am

Hi Guys,

All the managers at BTAG Masters disappeared off skype / BTAG Masters not responding to any of the contact email address'. I was given a contact on skype supposedly looking after the account who advised me to remove all BTAG brands as earnings were not being paid and contact had ceased. Contrary to that I had the following email...

Days later I had an email from [email protected] (looks like new BTAG Masters) advising "Nothing has happened with your current account, it remains the same, we are just switching our affiliate account and wanted to invite you to advertise us there if you would like."

Does anyone have any further info? Thanks in advance.

I am still having problems with this program as well.. Looks like they are gone. Now considered closed.

BTAG has always been a problematic AFF program to work with. Late payments, strange AFF software that rarely showed the correct numbers, AFF managers going AWOL on Skype etc. We established at some point a good contact and got paid with 45-60 days delay, not good but it was reliable for a period.

Then they fired the entire AFF team in late 2023, so no one to answer at all. I still had a finance contact but that email bounced too after some time. Thus, we got a Maltese debt collector involved and even they with their much better resources and experience, couldn't get a resolution to the case.

The MGA licence for the dozens of brands is still live, but apparently, the Winzon office in Malta is deserted. The sites themselves had a "maintenance" message last time I checked. We hunted down some other people who were involved but no reaction or result either.

They were listed mainly for their NDBs, getting us sometimes 500+ regs and 100+ FTDs per month, sometimes less. Overall, a win-win. We removed them already before they fired the AFF team as we could see things deteriorating.

If they have some kind of resurrection now, I would list them only if they paid the full outstanding balance and make a monthly prepayment of the average commission earned over the last 12 months we had them listed.

Either way, I would approach them with a rather large barge pole

EDIT: BTW, we were not "blessed" with an email from WeAreAffiliates.

Thanks gmblrs for the complete breakdown. Might help affiliate use extreme caution if they even decide to talk to them.

Thanks for your reply on this one; certainly helps better understand the situation.
