Shark Snip earns commissions when users sign up for sportsbooks, daily fantasy sites, and prediction markets through links on our site. This page discloses our affiliate relationships in compliance with FTC requirements.
What "affiliate" means
When you click a link on Shark Snip and sign up for a partner service, the partner pays Shark Snip a commission. This commission may be:
- CPA (Cost Per Acquisition): A flat fee per first-time depositor (typically $40-300)
- Revenue share: A percentage of the partner's net revenue from your activity (typically 30-50%, sometimes lifetime)
- Hybrid: A flat fee plus a percentage
These payments do not change the price you pay for the partner service. They are paid by the partner, not added to your costs.
Why we disclose
The FTC requires that material connections between endorsers and brands be disclosed. Affiliate commissions are a material connection. We want our users to know:
- We earn money when you sign up for some sportsbooks/DFS sites
- This is a major revenue stream that funds our free tier and keeps Pro affordable
- We disclose because honesty about incentives is the foundation of trust

How affiliate fees affect Shark Snip's recommendations
This is the question that matters most for trust. We have three commitments:
1. Picks page recommendations are model-driven, not affiliate-driven
Our picks page surfaces the most likely +EV bets according to our and our creators' models. We do not bias picks toward operators with higher CPAs. The "bet this on [book]" button on each line is purely an affiliate-tracked click — not a recommendation that that book is the best place to bet.
2. Pickem unified line shopping always points to the BEST price for you
When the same prop is available at multiple books, the pickem tool surfaces the cheapest payout for you — even if a different book pays us a higher CPA. We will never inflate a worse price to capture more affiliate revenue.
3. We disclose where we have affiliate relationships
Every page where we display "bet this on [book]" buttons indicates the affiliate relationship via clear notation (e.g., "Shark Snip earns commission on signups via these links").
What we still need to decide / improve
This is a working policy. Areas where we want to do better:
- Detailed CPA disclosure per partner. We may eventually disclose the exact CPA we earn from each partner. Currently we don't, partly because the figures change frequently and partly because individual deal terms are confidential. We're open to feedback on whether this would improve user trust.
- Audit trail. We're considering an annual third-party audit of our affiliate relationships and disclosure practices. Not in place yet.
- Affiliate-free option. We've considered an "affiliate-free" tier where users could pay extra to remove affiliate links. Not currently planned, but open to feedback.
