Ronin Affiliates is defunct and should be avoided. The program and its sole brand, Caspero Casino, permanently ceased operations in May 2026 after a chronic non-payment record — documented withdrawal delays, rejected KYC, ignored dispute bodies and a rock-bottom 1.5/10 Safety Index — and a formal Malta Gaming Authority enforcement alert against parent NovaForge LTD for displaying false MGA licensing badges on a sister brand. Despite headline terms of up to 55% NGR with no negative carryover, the operator wound the program down over two weeks (killing tracking access on May 14, 2026) and left partners to chase unpaid balances by hand. Because NovaForge's other white-label brands (Slotuna, DuoSpin, BillyBets, Gransino, Roby, Dragonia) run on the same Marshall Islands shell, Cypriot payment agent and Anjouan sub-licence, redirecting traffic to them carries the identical counterparty risk — route elsewhere.
Ronin Affiliates operated as a performance-based iGaming marketing program established to drive acquisition and referral traffic for its flagship property, Caspero Casino—an integrated casino and sportsbook built on the iGATE turnkey infrastructure. Managed by parent entity NovaForge LTD (registered in the Marshall Islands) and authorized under an Anjouan Gaming Board sub-license, the platform targeted grey-market traffic primarily across Canada, Brazil, and Australia. Running on the ReferOn software suite, it offered publishers real-time analytics, flexible S2S postbacks, and broad campaign channel support.
Despite an attractive commercial framework, Ronin Affiliates and Caspero Casino permanently ceased operations in May 2026 due to banking friction, withdrawal clearing delays, and heightened regulatory scrutiny. The operator instituted a phased shutdown, disabling new player registrations on April 27, 2026, stopping deposit processing on May 1, 2026, and terminating backend ReferOn access on May 14, 2026. Residual affiliate balances were made eligible for manual settlement directly via designated account management channels.
