16. High-Roller Policy
16.1 In any given month, if a referred customer generates a negative Commissionable Revenue of €10,000 or more at any time (in which case, the customer shall be referred to as a “High-Roller”), and your aggregated Earnings in that month (across all referred customers and game types) is negative €2,000 or more, then the negative Earnings generated by the High-Roller will be carried forward and offset against future Earnings generated by that High-Roller until the negative balance (the “Highrolled Balance”) reaches zero.
16.2 The Highrolled Balance carried forward is not set off against other customers’ Earnings, only the Earnings generated by the High-Roller.
16.3 The Highrolled Balance carried forward will not be greater than the total aggregate negative Earnings generated by your referred customers during that month.
16.4 If more than one High-Roller is designated during the same calendar month, the aggregate negative balance carried forward will be split proportionally between them.
16.5 The Highrolled Balance of a High-Roller will be reduced by future positive Earnings that the High-Roller generates in subsequent months. The Highrolled Balance will not be increased by future negative Earnings unless the High-Roller meets the qualifying criteria to be classified as a “High-Roller” during the applicable month.
