Helen, Nicky and I have just flown back from Amsterdam and what a great time we had! With lots of interesting talks, many new faces from around Europe and of course some of the old timers from the UK, our thanks goes to Existem for another great event!

We’ve launched a promotions & voucher code management tool, which can be accessed through dgmPro, which allows dgm’s affiliates to get instant access to the latest promotions and voucher codes from our merchants.

dgm are proud to be sponsoring this years a4u awards and to celebrate we are offering 2 tickets to some lucky affiliates to go to the awards with dgm. To enter the competition you just need to play our Guess the dgmMii game. Don’t forget to submit your name and email. We’ve even added some photos to help you along.
