Use a closed month with €8,000 NGR. A 45% rate produces €3,600; 60% produces €4,800. The €1,200 difference is meaningful only when both calculations use the same NGR definition, period and currency.

Action sequence

  1. Export NGR before manual changes
  2. Apply 45% and 60% to the identical base
  3. Review bonuses, chargebacks and administrative deductions separately
  4. Match the calculation to the next-month credit

Evidence used

01

Closed monthly NGR after applicable deductions

02

The confirmed RevShare rate for this account

03

Dashboard currency and any external budgeting conversion

04

Period close date and first-day credit status

Where risk appears

  • Compare a 70% headline with another account actual rate
  • Use deposits instead of NGR as the commission base
  • Mix an open current month with a closed reporting period

What the comparison demonstrates

The €1,200 difference exists only because both percentages use the same €8,000 NGR. A different base, currency or period would invalidate the comparison. The case also shows that a larger percentage does not automatically offset weaker retention. Cohort quality and actual deductions still decide value.

Sensitivity beyond one month

The €8,000 example should be repeated for weak, base and strong months and then combined with actual retention. Sixty per cent of €5,000 NGR is €3,000, while 45% of €8,000 is €3,600. The larger percentage produces less money because the cohort creates a smaller base.

Keep the agreed rate beside its confirmation date and reporting currency. This prevents an old offer from being compared with a new one and explains why the credited amount may differ from an early forecast.

NGR sensitivity matters more than one percentage

At €8,000 NGR, 45% produces €3,600 and 60% produces €4,800. That comparison is valid only when the NGR base is identical. If the second scenario produces just €5,500 NGR after applicable deductions, 60% equals €3,300 and is lower than the first result. Store both effective NGR per cohort and the applied percentage.

Scale after several closed periods when possible. A single strong cohort can make a headline rate look more stable than the underlying player value really is.

Outcome

A higher percentage helps only when NGR remains healthy. Restrictions or weaker retention can make 60% on a small base less valuable than 45% on a stronger cohort.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is 45% of €8,000 NGR?

€3,600. At 60%, the same NGR would produce €4,800, so use the confirmed account rate. Verify the answer against the actual campaign and reporting period.

Why should “up to 70%” not be used as the working rate?

It is a maximum promotional headline; the actual percentage depends on the account offer. Verify the answer against the actual campaign and reporting period.

What should be reconciled first?

Period, rate, NGR composition, currency and cohort adjustments. Verify the answer against the actual campaign and reporting period.
