Affiliate Disclosure
Note From the People Behind WorldSpinGuide
I want to be completely honest with everyone about how WorldSpinGuide works and how we sustain this project. When we started this site, one of the first rules we set for ourselves was that we wouldn’t hide anything behind vague wording or legal shortcuts. The online casino world has enough confusion already. You deserve clarity.
So here is the truth, in simple words.
How WorldSpinGuide Makes Money
WorldSpinGuide is free to use. You will never pay us for our reviews or guides. Some of the casinos we write about pay us a commission if you click our link and decide to create an account. That is the financial backbone of this website.
But here’s what matters: You are never charged extra, and your bonuses do not change because of it. In many cases, casinos actually offer better deals through affiliate partners than they do on their own homepage.See our top recommended casinos
The casino pays us — not you.
I want you to know this because trust disappears the moment something feels hidden. And I’d rather you understand our model fully than wonder why this site exists.
What These Partnerships Cannot Influence
This is the part I care about most, both as the site’s creator and as someone who has watched players get misled by “top casino lists” that are basically paid ads. We do things differently.
Affiliate partnerships cannot change:
- our ratings
- our safety warnings
- how we describe bonuses or wagering
- what our authors say about payout behaviour
- whether we list or refuse to list a casino
If a casino treats players poorly, we write that. If a casino delays withdrawals or hides important rules, we point it out. If a casino starts slipping, we downgrade or remove them.
I do not want a single review on this site to exist because someone offered us a payout. That is not why we built this, and it is not how we operate. See how we keep reviews unbiased
Why You Can Trust What We Publish
We earn money from affiliates, yes — but we don’t earn money by lying.
Our reviews are based on real tests done by real people with real accounts and real withdrawals. We do not use fake data, we do not copy casino descriptions, and we do not accept operator claims without checking them ourselves.Read our individual casino reviews
Before a casino ever gets recommended on this site, we:
- create an actual account
- complete verification
- deposit our own money
- play on the platform
- request withdrawals
- test support
- check the bonus rules manually
- look into the operator’s history
- monitor how they behave over time
This is not theory — this is work. Slow, sometimes boring, sometimes frustrating work. But it is the only way we can look a reader in the eye and say, “Here’s what playing here is really like.”
Our Editorial Independence
The most important rule we follow internally is simple: business and content stay separate.
Hans and Sabine, our two primary authors, write exactly what they see and experience. They don’t get instructions to highlight certain casinos or soften criticism. They have full freedom to be strict, honest, blunt or cautious — however the situation calls for it.
If a casino reaches out asking for a “special review” or wants to dictate how we rate them, the answer is always the same: No. We test you, not the other way around.
This boundary is what lets us sleep at night.
Why We Reject Many Casino Partnerships
You might think every casino wants to be listed here. And honestly, many do.But we turn down a large number of them, sometimes immediately.We say no when we see:
- unclear or misleading bonus rules
- slow or unreliable withdrawals
- repeated unresolved player complaints
- shady licensing behaviour
- overly aggressive sales tactics
- patterns of stalling or refusing payouts
Even if an operator offers higher commissions, we will still decline if their behaviour doesn’t align with what we consider acceptable.
A partnership only makes sense when the casino treats players fairly. Otherwise, it is a liability — for them and for us.
What Affiliate Income Allows Us to Do
Running a site like this is not free. Affiliate income helps us:
- fund the live testing our team performs
- pay for deposits and withdrawal checks
- update old reviews when casinos change
- keep everything online without charging readers
- write in-depth guides instead of surface-level content
We reinvest a large part of what we earn into making the site better, more accurate and more useful.
I believe players deserve that level of care.
A Personal Word to Our Readers
I built WorldSpinGuide because I was tired of reading casino reviews that felt like they were written for search engines rather than people. Reviews that praised every operator. Lists where every casino looked “top rated.” Pages that never mentioned slow withdrawals, hidden rules or safety concerns.
The truth is, not every casino deserves your time or money.
We will continue to be transparent about how we operate. We will continue to call out casinos that mistreat players. And we will continue to test everything with our own accounts because that is the only way we can be proud of what we publish.
If you ever question something we wrote, or you think a rating is wrong, or you want clearer information — reach out. Your feedback helps shape this project, and we take it seriously. Contact us with questions
