How do you calculate NGR?
“Net Generated Revenue” is calculated as the sum total of all “associated rakes and tournament fees that your real money players generate in a calendar month”. From this we deduct costs which include:
- Bonuses and promotional amounts paid to your real money players on behalf of us;
- Any fraud attributed monies;
- Transactions that are reversed on our behalf or that of the card-holder's bank (called charge backs);
- Processing charges with regard to your real money player's real money transactions;
- Any revenue deemed 'uncollectible' by us that was attributed to your real money players;
- Any monies paid on our behalf to your real money player to resolve a dispute.
"Associated Rakes" refers to the rake we associate with the real money players who were dealt cards at the beginning of the hand, regardless of their contribution to the pot. As an example: If a table has 10 players where some players fold without contributing anything to the pot but the rake is still paid for this hand (say it's $2 for this instance), all players would have an associated rake $0.20. The equation is:
Associated Rake = (rake for the hand) / (number of players dealt cards in that hand).
Commission = [25% * (Associated Rake + Tournament fees - Costs)]
