You must have heard the phrase “go niche or go home” often used in affiliate marketing, the truth is, it still applies in 2019.

Nevertheless, people are still investing and hoping that it will return to its former glory.

Casinos fall in the same category as cryptocurrencies, but they have been around for a longer period. Unlike cryptocurrencies, online casino platforms are not losing popularity, but online gambling is restricted in some countries. Affiliates will get offers to promote such platforms to generate traffic, and they are paid a commission for every deposit made by the customers they bring. So, cryptocurrency and casinos use the CPA model.
