Frequently Asked Questions

AffiliateRank is an independent platform that ranks and reviews casino affiliate websites. We help players find the most trustworthy and reputable casino comparison sites by providing objective ratings based on factors like trust, bonus quality, user experience, payment methods, and customer support.

Our rankings are based on a comprehensive methodology that evaluates five key areas: Trust Score (30%), Bonus Quality (25%), User Experience (20%), Payment Methods (15%), and Customer Support (10%). Each site undergoes hands-on testing by our expert team, including real account creation, deposits, gameplay, and withdrawals.

Yes, all our reviews are completely independent. While we may earn commissions through affiliate partnerships when users click our links and sign up, this never influences our rankings or editorial content. Platforms cannot pay for higher rankings, and our scoring is based solely on objective evaluation criteria.

Our rankings are updated regularly based on new data, user feedback, and ongoing monitoring. We continuously track changes in bonus offers, terms and conditions, site performance, and user experiences to ensure our rankings remain accurate and current.

Yes, we welcome suggestions for new sites to review. You can contact us with the site details, and our team will evaluate it based on our standard criteria. Please note that submission does not guarantee inclusion in our rankings - sites must meet our quality and licensing requirements.

The Trust Score is the most important factor in our rankings, accounting for 30% of the total score. It evaluates licensing and regulation, security measures (SSL, data protection), fair gaming certifications (RNG audits), and the platform's reputation history including any past issues or player complaints.

Yes, you must be 18 years or older (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, whichever is higher) to use AffiliateRank and any gambling services we link to. Gambling is strictly for adults only, and we encourage responsible gaming practices.

AffiliateRank earns revenue through affiliate partnerships with the casino sites we review. When you click our links and sign up or make a deposit at a casino, we may receive a commission. Importantly, this commercial relationship never affects our rankings or reviews - editorial decisions are completely separate from business relationships.

If you feel that gambling is becoming a problem, please seek help immediately. Visit our Responsible Gaming page for resources, warning signs, and links to support organizations like GamCare, Gamblers Anonymous, and national helplines. Most casinos also offer self-exclusion tools that can help you take a break.

Look for valid gambling licenses from recognized authorities (like Malta Gaming Authority, UK Gambling Commission, or Curacao), SSL encryption, fair gaming certifications, and positive reputation history. Our reviews cover all these factors - sites with high Trust Scores have been verified as safe and legitimate.

Wagering requirements specify how many times you must bet a bonus amount before you can withdraw winnings. For example, a 30x wagering requirement on a $100 bonus means you need to wager $3,000 before cashing out. We evaluate the fairness of wagering requirements as part of our Bonus Quality score.

We moderate all user reviews to ensure they are genuine and helpful. Reviews must be based on real personal experience, and we remove fake, misleading, or defamatory content. User reviews complement our expert analysis to give you a complete picture of each platform.
