Gammon Empire is a website of backgammon games. Players can choose to play either for play money or for real money. The home page design is somewhat disagreeable, due to a large blinking button which says: "download now". This also creates a sensation of watching an advertisement. Nevertheless, the design of other pages in the site is simple and pleasant, with a light blue background. The website is available in several languages, including Hebrew. In the Hebrew version of the site there is more text available than in the English version, including some articles about backgammon techniques and backgammon compared to poker. There are approximately 10,000 online players. Gammon Empire claims to offer the biggest backgammon room online, but I have no way of verifying this claim. There is a 2$ signup bonus offered to new real money players, regardless of the amount of money they deposit. Yet there is no bonus offer for referring friends to the Gammon Empire website. The site offers a "backgammon school" free for the first four games. After four games, each "backgammon school" game against the computer costs 50 cents. During these games the computer suggests the best moves to the player. The information about payment required for participating in "backgammon school" games is not easy to find in the website. It does not appear with the text explaining about the school, but rather, in the "About Us" section. Rakes depend on the kind of game and on the stakes. For a single game the rakes are 0$-20$ 4.9%, 20$-100$ 3.9%, 100$ and up 2.9%. For a match the rakes are 0$-20$ base commission (for 1 point): 4.9%, every point: +0.5%, max commission: 9.9%, 20$-100$ base commission (for 1 point): 4.4%, every point: +0.5%, max commission: 8.9%, 100$ and up base commission (for 1 point): 3.9%, every point: +0.5%, max commission: 7.9%. The rake also depends on the level of the players. Players with a similar level pay less, which seems reasonable. Affiliates of Gammon Empire are offered two options: 1. A fixed amount per signup of $20-$30
2. A revenue share: 20%-30% of the gross revenue of players.
In addition, the referrer can earn 15% from all payments made to sub-affiliates.
