Joint promotions and promotions
1) Why co-promo in the ecosystem
Joint promos and promotions (co-promo) strengthen network effects: unite audiences, accelerate onboarding of new roles (operators, studios, affiliates, brands), increase LTV and reduce CAC by sharing risks and budgets. In a multi-chain/multi-service network, co-promos rely on standardized contracts (RNFTs), attribution, limits, and safe mechanics.
Key objectives:- increased coverage and retention through cross-platform events;
- transparent economy: who pays, who gets and for what;
- reduction of fraud and arbitration of bonuses;
- compliance with regulatory and geo-rules without hand crutches.
2) Roles and responsibilities
Operator/Platform: stock hosting, anti-fraud, billing/payments, compliance.
Content provider/studio: mechanics (games/challenges), prize-boost, creatives.
Affiliate/aggregator/influencer: traffic, segmentation, funnels.
Brand/sponsor: prize budget, media integrations.
Calculation provider/DA: scaling, honest leaderboards.
Oracles/curation: verification of results, anti-cheating.
Kaznacheystvo/治理: stock parameters, limits, audit and post-mortem.
3) Joint stock mechanics (patterns)
1. Cross-platform tournament/leaderboard
Points for actions (bets/matches/quests), weighted by quality.
Total prize pool with shares under the RNFT contract.
2. Quest seasons and battle passes
Progress tracks, missions by segment (beginners/sleepers/VIP).
Discounts/perks via Utility-token; limits in RNFT.
3. Co-branded jackpots/prize pools
The GGR/turnover share goes to the pool; transparent through Treasury & Rewards Router.
4. Partner bonuses and referral chains
CPA/CPL/RevShare/hybrid; cliff/vesting, anti-chargeback.
5. Seasonal events and regional campaigns
Geo-restrictions, tax deductions, local payment methods.
6. NFT/RNFT promo
Collectible "passes" with rights (early access, extra chances, points accelerator); non-resold rights - like RNFT.
4) Economics and revenue distribution
Sources: sponsorship budgets, turnover growth (GGR/net-revenue), paid slots, paid upgrades (battle pass), media placements.
Distribution (approximate corridors, reguliruyutsya治理):- Operator/Platform: 10-25% net campaign revenue.
- Content provider/studio: 25-45% (for mechanics and engagement).
- Affiliates/influencers: 5-25% (traffic quality with decay).
- Treasury/insurance fund: 2-10% (incidents/compensation).
- Prize pool: fixed/percentage of RNFT revenue.
- vCPM/CPV for media integrations; CPA/CPL/Hybrid for performance; take-rate on micro purchases; floor/ceil-corridors to eliminate rent.
5) Attribution and tracking
Multi-touch attribution (MTA): time windows, position models, channel-weights.
On-chain/off-chain events: ULID/trace-id, idempotence, deadup.
Anti-arb: prohibition of transfer of bonuses between subjects; geo/age-filters; S-pledges for high-risk partners.
Traffic quality: hold, ARPPU, return/chargeback rate, fraud-score.
6) Anti-fraud and abuse
Typical abuses → countermeasures:- Sybil farms and multi-accounts: KYC/KYB via VC, de-anonymized device fingers (with private hashes), R-reputation and S-pledges.
- Pharming bonuses/missions: random tests, dynamics of points (diminishing returns), limits in RNFT.
- Tournament collation: blind calibration samples, correlation audit, RNFT zeroing/penalty.
- Reuse of coupons/code sharing: one-time tokens, TTL, bundle with DID and RNFT rights.
- Chargeback/boost of fake registrations: deferred payments (cliff), negative carry on controversial leads.
7) Compliance and geo-policies
Age/region: ZK-profs of age/location without personal data disclosure; domain whitelists.
Advertising and responsibility: creative limits, mandatory disclosures, deactivation in the "red" zones.
Taxes/Deductions-Automatic deductions from the payment path (Compliance Gate).
Fail-closed: in case of doubts about the status - blocking participation and manual quorum.
8) Stock builder (service layer)
Promo Registry: stock types, rule schemas, regions, timing.
Mission Engine: logic of quests/glasses/multipliers; anti-pharm.
Leaderboard Service: fair tables (protection against duplicates, signatures, snapshots).
Coupon/Voucher Hub: generation, TTL, disposability, binding to RNFT rights.
Rewards Router: prize/reward routing, vesting, escrow.
Attribution & Analytics: MTA, channels, reports, API for partners.
Compliance Gate: age/geo/sanctions, tax deductions.
Dispute/Escrow: appeals, arbitrators, slashing for fraud.
9) RNFT contract templates
1. Sponsor-RNFT: budget, KPI (coverage/frequency/NRR), payment schedule, right to brand visibility.
2. Affiliate-RNFT: payout model (CPA/CPL/RevShare/hybrid), attribution windows, anti-fraud, cliff/vesting.
3. Content-RNFT: prize pool, game list/mechanic, revenue share, RNG responsibility/integrity.
4. Promo-Pass RNFT (for users): participation rights/limits, point multipliers, exit price.
5. Compliance-RNFT: geo-access, age clearances, tax rules.
10) Observability and reporting
End-to-end trace: trace/span, 'promo _ id', 'partner _ id', 'rnft _ id'.
Real-time metrics: active participants, stage conversion, p50/p95 accrual delay, DLQ events.
Quality and economics: CAC/Payback/LTV, ARPPU, NRR/GRR, Cost-to-Serve/contributor, margin/mission.
Security and compliance: fraud rate, share of rejected participants/regions, taxes/deductions.
Public reports: campaign passport, achievement of KPIs, improvement plan.
11) KPI of joint promos
Growth: registrations/activations, MAU/WAU, conversion to 1st action.
Retention: D1/D7/D30, proportion of returning "sleepers."
Revenue: GGR/net-revenue campaigns, margin/participant, share of repeat revenue.
Traffic quality: ARPPU/Retention by channel, chargeback rate, controversial leads.
Honesty: fraction of fraud events, reaction time, slash events.
Experience: Award timing, leadboard stability, NPS/CSAT.
12) Launch playbook (in steps)
1. Goals and segments: why a stock, what roles, what markets.
2. Choice of mechanics: tournament/quest/pool/NFT pass; risk and limit matrix.
3. Budget and economics: prize pool, pricing, take-rate corridors.
4. RNFT contracts: sponsor/affiliate/content/compliance; cliff/vesting.
5. Trekking and attribution: channels, windows, anti-arb.
6. Anti-fraud: KYC/VC, signatures, control tasks, stop cranes.
7. SLO/SLA and observability: real-time metrics, alerts, DLQ/Replay.
8. Pilot launch: limited segment/region, A/B mission profiles.
9. Scaling: geo/channel extension, cross-chain synchronization.
10. Post-mortem: KPI, incidents, adjustment of rules/weights.
13) Delivery checklist
- Goals, segments and mechanics aligned
- Set up RNFT contracts (budgets, KPIs, vesting, exit)
- Included attribution and anti-fraud (idempotency, deadup, control tasks)
- SLOs defined: accruals, leadboards, payout times
- Compliance Gate connected (geo/age/tax)
- Real-time dashboards and partner reports available
- Dispute/escrow and slashing procedure described
- Pilot/chaos run and ready post-mortem template
14) Example scenarios (inspiration)
"Studio X Season ": points for new releases, prime time multiplier, overall jackpot.
"Cross-operator tournament": a single lidboard between domains, honest finality and compensation through an insurance fund.
"Influencer collab": limited promotional pass, stream activation tasks, anti-farm and off-chain signatures.
"Regional festival": local payments/taxes, language, age limits and media partners.
15) Glossary
RNFT: non-interchangeable rights/limits/obligations contract for promo.
MTA: Multi-touch attribution with windows and channel weights.
DLQ/Replay: quarantine and reprocessing accrual/totals events.
Cliff/vesting: Deferred payments and schedule release.
Fail-closed: block access when compliance status is unclear.
16) The bottom line
Joint promotions and promotions are the economics of coordination. By standardizing mechanics, RNFT contracts, attribution, anti-fraud, and compliance, the network transforms marketing into a predictable, measurable, and equitable incentive system where each partner sees a contribution and is rewarded in proportion to the effect being tested.
