How we're funded, in plain terms

The short version

Some of the outbound links on this site — the “Visit operator” buttons in particular — are affiliate links. If you follow one and then register or deposit with that operator, we may receive a commission. You pay nothing extra; the cost, if any, sits with the operator's marketing budget.

What the commission looks like

Arrangements vary by brand. They can be a one-off payment for a new funded account, a share of net revenue over time, or a fixed fee. We don't publish individual commercial terms because they change and are commercially sensitive, but the type of deal never earns a brand a better review.

Why it doesn't bend our reviews

We score every brand against the same fixed checklist and weighting, described on our editorial review policy page. The editorial assessment is done independently of any commercial conversation. A higher commission cannot buy a higher score, a better placement, or softer wording — and a brand with no arrangement at all can still be reviewed.

How to spot the links

Affiliate links carry tracking parameters and are marked as sponsored in the underlying code. Where a link is purely informational — for example, the safer-gambling resources or the UK Gambling Commission — there is no affiliate relationship and no commission involved.

Your choice, always

You never have to use our links. You can go to any operator directly, and you should always read the operator's own terms, odds and account rules before betting. If anything here is unclear, please get in touch via our contact page.
