Affiliate disclosure

How we earn

The short version: most links to casinos on this site are commercial. If you open an account after clicking one, the operator usually pays us a one-off commission. You pay nothing extra, and the offer you get is the same as going direct.

What the links carry

Each casino link has a tracking tag on the end so the operator knows the visit came from us. That tag is how the commission gets attributed. It doesn't follow you around the web and it isn't tied to your name — it just marks the click as ours.

What the money does not do

It doesn't buy a higher score. It doesn't buy the top spot. A brand that pays more does not move up the page for that reason, and a brand that pays nothing can still be listed if it earns the place. The order and the scores reflect the criteria on the homepage, full stop.

Why we tell you

Because the Advertising Standards Authority expects it and because you deserve to know. A comparison site that hides its funding isn't comparing anything — it's selling. We'd rather be honest about the model and let the writing earn your trust.

One thing we'll never do

Pretend gambling is a way to make money. It isn't, for you or for us — our income comes from sign-ups, not from anyone losing. Set a budget, treat it as entertainment, and read the responsible gambling page if any of that feels hard to hold to.
