The affiliate marketing opportunity in the US

Justin Stempeck, Chief Strategy Officer at Compliable
Since the beginning of the year, four US states have legalized (but not launched) online sports betting, taking the total number to 26, with six states also allowing online casino. Since the repeal of PASPA in 2018, we have seen rapid growth of the market with no signs of the expansion slowing down. Several states are expecting to open in the near future, with Kansas just recently launching, Massachusetts actively drafting regulations, Maryland positioning itself for a late 2022 launch and Ohio a fast follow in January 2023. California, one of the largest states in the US, is going to the polls on November 8th to consider two competing sports betting measures, a vote closely watched by all industry stakeholders.
The US market presents lucrative opportunities for operators around the globe, but it also offers other sectors of the ecosystem the possibility to profit from this exciting development, including global marketing affiliates.
As many will have already discovered by now, keeping track of the different rules, regulations and licensing requirements of each US state is a daunting task, and many affiliates may not have the resources or expertise in this space that established operators have, as few European countries have implemented regulation of this scale for the sector.
At Compliable, we provide a licensing platform for all gaming entities, including affiliates, to navigate through the complex regulatory landscape in the US as more states allow online gambling. From our experience and through conversations with affiliates, there are a few common questions and concerns about entering the US and there are several steps companies can take to simplify the process and ensure speed to market.
For a marketing affiliate that originates from outside the US, it is important to know that, prior to obtaining a vendor license to operate in most US states, regulators generally require that the business register with a state office (typically the Secretary of State). With this process handled by a non-gaming agency, it will delay your vendor license application if it is not in place before you submit your application with the gaming regulators, so it is crucial to give yourself enough time to avoid unnecessary delays.
Not every state requires affiliates to hold a license, however, and definitions can differ. It is crucial to do the research to determine what license type is needed, if any, as the application process is time consuming and involves significant paperwork. Once you have established that you need a license and you are ready to start the process, it is beneficial to carefully read through all the questions and fully understand what documents you will need before starting, as this will allow for a much more streamlined application.
Do not rush the through the forms and review them for accuracy and completeness, as common mistakes or simply failing to answer a question can lead to an application being rejected. Regulators do not want to spend time on incomplete applications, and they will be returned if not completed fully, delaying the time it will take for the business to get up and running.
Finally, an existing business partnership with an operator can significantly boost your chances of obtaining a license. Most regulators ask about this, as they only want to consider license applications of companies that already have existing relationships – it highlights the readiness and commitment to operating a serious business in the state. Locate your contract with your betting partner and be prepared to attach it as an exhibit to any licensing application.
The US licensing landscape can be a minefield but the opportunities for operators and vendors in the country are great. With thorough research and planning, the process to getting licensed and getting your business fully operating can become easier and more streamlined.
As more states consider regulating online betting and gaming over the next few years, it is an extremely exciting time to place a wager on the US market.

Meet MegaList: The Rising Force in iGaming Affiliation

There are affiliate networks, and then thereâs MegaList – a performance-first, hype-last kind of operation built for casino and sportsbook brands that prefer results over buzzwords.
In an industry that sometimes feels like itâs powered by vague metrics and recycled content, MegaList steps in as the âMega Mapâ – a practical, data-driven network guiding both players and operators to higher ground. Less âlook at our reach,â more âhereâs your conversion rate.â
So no, this isnât just another logo-stamped brand promising traffic and delivering bounce rates. This is a carefully engineered affiliate engine built on smart SEO, qualified leads, and just enough caffeine-fueled obsession with results to make even the most skeptical operators pay attention.
The iGaming Affiliate World: Why It (Still) Matters
Letâs be honest – the affiliate space in iGaming has had its fair share of bad actors and empty promises. But when done right, affiliate marketing is still one of the most effective and efficient ways to connect licensed operators with the right players.
Players want fewer popups, more clarity. Operators want actual ROI, not vague impressions.
Enter: the data-driven affiliate network.
Itâs simple:
- Informed players make better choices.
- Strategic affiliates deliver better traffic.
- Everyone wins. Except, of course, the shady operators who preferred it the other way.
Meet the MegaList Brands
These arenât vanity microsites. Each MegaList brand has a specific mission, actual humans behind the content, and a reputation for, well⌠telling it like it is.
MegaCasinoList
Letâs face it – players donât need another affiliate promising âtop 10 casinosâ based on whatever ad paid the most. They need honest, transparent, expert-backed reviews.
Thatâs where MegaCasinoList comes in – a platform that filters out the noise and delivers legit info on licensed casinos, security, fairness, and gameplay. Slots? Live dealer games? Payout speed? Yep, itâs all in there, and itâs all vetted.
They work with reliable operators only, because – and hereâs a crazy idea – not every shiny site deserves your deposit.
MegaTipsList
If you like sports predictions that read like a 20-page legal document, youâre in the wrong place.
MegaTipsList is built for bettors who want real insights, fast reads, accurate tips, and actual value. It delivers predictions, sports news, and timely promotions – minus the fluff and with none of that âwin guaranteedâ nonsense.
Designed for bettors who like to stay informed without needing a PhD to understand the odds.
MegaBetList
For the practical bettor who just wants the facts: which sites are legit, which ones pay fast, and what to expect before placing your first wager.
MegaBetList reviews betting platforms with a clear, no-nonsense voice. Itâs not trying to dazzle; itâs trying to help people bet smarter – and itâs doing a pretty solid job of it.
From licensing to promotions to usability, everything is covered – and everything is filtered through what actually matters to sports fans.
Why This All Matters (And Why Itâs Working)
The iGaming world doesnât need more noise. It needs better filters, smarter partners, and affiliates that actually care whether the traffic leads somewhere useful.
Thatâs where MegaList comes in – not to impress with buzzwords, but to perform, to scale, and to make sure both operators and players are on the same page for once.
And if we may drop in a little vision while weâre at it:
âAt MegaList, we believe informed players and strategic operators shape a stronger, smarter iGaming industry.â
For once, a statement that isnât just inspirational filler.
So the next time someone pitches you an affiliate network, ask one thing: âDo they have a plan, or just a landing page?â
 MegaList has both, and a track record to prove it.
