If you have ever been surfing our site and wondered, “Huh… who are these guys, and how do they make money?” then this page is for you! We want to be open about how we earn money, how that affects (or rather how that doesn’t affect) our reviews, and the standards we have for ourselves here. Think of us like restaurant reviewers from the community on Yelp who want you to know how our experience was before you make a reservation.
To be as open as possible, we are affiliates to the casinos. That means that we earn money when you sign up for a sweepstakes casino through our links.
But what sets us apart is that we want you to have the best experience possible when playing. This is why we have our team of experts evaluate hundreds of platforms to weed out the legitimate sites to help you avoid the fraudulent ones. We only promote the few casinos that meet our standards, so that you can have the resources to pick and choose where you would like to play.
Just because we can earn a commission does not mean a casino gets a good rating from us. We believe that transparency and fairness matters, especially in a space that can feel shady to newcomers, so we have carefully curated our review system to deliver unbiased, detailed, and valuable information. Whether or not you sign up through our links has zero impact on how we rank a site.
Curious to see how we rate? See our full criteria here.

We’ve reviewed many sites that looked fine on the surface – until we rolled up our sleeves and ran them through our tests.
Here are just a few of the red flags that have earned casinos a spot on our SweepCasinos Blacklist:

Because we only feature sites that meet our strict standards, not just the ones that pay the most.
Nope. If we don’t believe in a site, we aren’t afraid of expressing that in our review. And sites that we believe are a scam or have too low a rating, we compile into a blacklist as well.
Please let us know. We take user feedback seriously, and it factors into our rankings.
You don’t have to. But using them helps us keep testing new casinos so that we can continue our reviews to help you have the best experience possible.
