TurboGames affiliate program suggests games both from foreign and Russian developers to be place on your resource.

The TurboGames base has 215 casual games, about 100 from them are exclusive on the Russian market, i.e. they are not presented in other Russian affiliate programs for games selling.

After the elementary registration procedure, you will have two ways of games placing on your resource:

• Showroom placing through JavaScript code, as it is made in Alawar and IGROMoney affiliate programs, for example. Here you can choose you showroom’s text coding; there are also such function as “only exclusive games” placing, which can’t be found in other programs. And in this case you won’t be able to change the appearance of your showroom, of course.
• Showroom placing through XML. We need to thank the creators for the instruction on installation and usage of this XML-data, which can be found in the dashboard, but it will be hard for average user to understand this instruction. If you are experienced webmaster you can try to process XML, but you can hardly do it because many opening tags in XML doesn’t match with closing tags. There are no problems in placing the games from TurboGames program for Zamangers, because our content-managers add all games to Zamango base and they become accessible on users’ resources through Zamango Money Extractor plugin.

The process of sales control in TurboGames affiliate program is similar to that, used in other Russian affiliate programs. After the registration you are given the partner ID, which is used in game downloading link.  After the game is downloaded, it is working for 30 minutes, then it is blocked, and the activation code is requested. The games are purchased through sms, but users can do it through the Internet since recently.

The partner receives about 40 rubles (~$1,4) for each purchased game. And, as it is written in the description of this affiliate program, if, for example, about 10 games are bought from your website every day, the daily income will be 350-400 rubles (~$10-14), and you can have about 10 000 rubles (~$350) income a month. You can receive money once a month to a WebMoney purse, specified by you; the minimum sum is 2000 rubles (~$68).

As to reports, the downloadings and sales statistics is accessible to TurboGames partners.

The affiliate program doesn’t give any promo-materials. Besides, the size of small pictures for games (105×70px), which is used here, doesn’t coincide with pictures’ format in other Russian programs. You have two alternatives to solve this problem: to collect/to search/to draw icons yourself (bad variant ), or to use Zamango Money Extractor plugin, where all pictures are normalized (good variant ).

So, Zamango service is the optimum alternative for those who want to enlarge their game base through TurboGames affiliate program.
