It is a shame that bonuses are not really considered seriously by the sites, as if they were something optional or just a gesture of good-will. A bonus is an agreement for someone influencing their friends or other people and promoting you image. That is not free and it takes time so if the site then scams or re-thinks is reason enough to provide public feedback and negative trust.
For shady sites then it might happen but for those legit ones then they would definitely be paying up if you do able to hook up someone to play on the site and would make out some deposit. Yes, its true that the amount might not really be that so big or bonus but its better rather than on having nothing at all. We know that there would really be those people who would really be liking to affiliate or would really be spreading out
their links just for them to introduce the site on where they're playing on. Not all would really be that so serious about it because inviting someone is really that pain in the ass.
Ref bonus or affiliate bonuses arent really that something big on which other people would really be having those kind of false assumptions on how big it might be. If you do have tons of
people had been invited then it might be.
