About Us & Rating Methodology

What we cover

We review social and sweepstakes casinos — platforms that run on a dual virtual-currency model rather than direct cash wagering. These are structurally different from state-regulated real-money online casinos, and we take care to keep that distinction clear throughout the site.

Every platform we list is assessed on the same criteria and scored using the weighted methodology below.

How we rate platforms

Each platform receives a score out of 10, built from weighted category scores rather than an overall impression. The weighting is:

Game selection and providers (25%). Platform usability and mobile experience (20%). Promotional clarity and value (15%). Prize-redemption information (15%). Customer support (10%). Responsible-play tools (10%). Ownership and terms transparency (5%).

Ratings reflect this methodology, not commercial relationships. Where a platform's terms or availability change, the rating is revisited.

How we are funded

This site is affiliate-supported. We may receive compensation when a reader visits a partner platform through a link on this website. This does not cost the reader anything and does not change the terms of any offer.

Compensation may influence which platforms we cover and how prominently they are placed. It is never presented as, or used as, proof of platform quality. Our full disclosure is on the affiliate disclosure page.
