Project information

How we rate bookmakers

Our 1-to-5 editorial score is available only when the record has sufficient evidence. We assess local eligibility, clarity of terms, payment transparency, product information, safety controls and customer-facing support information.

A score is never based only on affiliate commission. We keep player payment methods and partner commission payout methods as separate checks. New profiles can be published without a rating while the evidence is incomplete.

Editorial context

More about How we rate bookmakers

Ratings use consistent evidence categories and remain unpublished while a required category is incomplete. The methodology is designed to make strengths, limitations and source dates visible rather than reducing every profile to a promotional headline.

Questions answered

Frequently asked questions

Can a bookmaker pay for a higher score?

No. Commercial arrangements do not change the scoring criteria.

Why can a profile have no score?

A score remains pending when one or more required evidence categories are incomplete.

How often are reviews updated?

Material information is rechecked and the visible verification date is updated when the underlying evidence changes.
