SpyBet: scam for 12 000

How an unprofessional affiliate program damages the reputation of the Soft2Bet platform

ClickID Network continues to openly report cases of fraudulent behavior of advertisers and affiliate programs.

This time, we are talking about SpyBet, an affiliate program operating on the Soft2Bet platform, but whose behavior discredits the brand it works for.

Important: we have no claims against Soft2Bet as a platform.

The problem lies solely with SpyBet's actions, as they violated the agreement, changed the terms retroactively, and have yet to fulfill their obligations.

1. Agreed terms that SpyBet tried to renegotiate later on

On May 29, our manager Denis agreed on the following terms with SpyBet:

– €240 for a minimum deposit,
– GEO: Canada, Australia, New Zealand,
– no baselines or hidden KPIs.

So, no matter what the platform's policies or standards are, it's the affiliate program that provided these terms that's responsible for them.

In June, we delivered traffic as agreed.

After that, SpyBet suddenly began to claim:

– that the manager who offered those rates has quit;
– that “they could not agree to such terms”;
– that the deal was “‘with a baseline’” (which is not true).

Such statements demonstrate SpyBet's instability and lack of responsibility.

2. First call: an attempt to reduce payment after receiving traffic

During the call, SpyBet tried to reduce the number of paid FTDs post facto.

We clearly stated our position: the conditions are fixed, the traffic is delivered — changing the rates post facto is unacceptable.

After discussion, we agreed that SpyBet would not pay only for a small overflow (2–3 FTDs) that did not affect the final amount.

That seemed to solve the issue.

3. Repeated “analysis”, endless replies, and a debt of €12,000

After approval, SpyBet stated that the traffic had been transferred for “additional analysis” and the payment had been put on hold.

They then reported that everything had been verified and the payment would be processed.

But more than six months have passed, and:

🔹 €12,000 for June traffic has still not been paid.

🔹 July traffic (≈ €2,000) was paid without delay, but at reduced rates.

🔹 Each of our requests was accompanied by further postponements:

— “in a week,”
— “next month,”
— “in a few days.”

SpyBet, as an affiliate of Soft2Bet, is damaging the platform's reputation with its behavior.

4. Attempted solution and ClickID's position

We informed SpyBet about the publication of the case in the media — you can see their response in the screenshots.

Conclusions

The SpyBet case is a classic example:

🔸 retroactive changes to terms and conditions,

🔸 attempts to renegotiate rates after receiving traffic,

🔸 delays in payments for six months,

🔸 evasion of responsibility through “new checks,”

🔸 systematic promises without any action.

This behavior hurts the whole market and creates risks for partners.

ClickID totally covered its commitments to partners, even though the advertiser didn't want to do its part of the deal.

The fate of SpyBet's payments remains unknown.
