We get this question weekly. One letter of difference; two entirely different products. If you landed here looking for the AskGamblers rating system, you have the wrong site. If you landed here looking for community-driven casino reviews, you have the right one. Here's the short version.

No. CasinoRankr was founded independently in 2017 by @hkgambler. It has no shared ownership, operational history, or editorial team with CasinoRank or AskGamblers.
CasinoRankr is a coined brand word — literally 'casino rank' with a trailing 'r', mirroring how consumer-tech products (Flickr, Tumblr) dropped the 'e'. The overlap with CasinoRank's 15-year-old brand is coincidental but real, which is why this page exists.
CasinoRankr is founded and operated by @hkgambler. 12+ years reviewing iGaming platforms, 369+ casinos hands-on tested, 15,000+ testing hours logged. Verified proof-of-play is published on the founder page.
Rankings use a Bayesian-weighted community-vote algorithm (prior=4.0, weight=10). Every casino must accumulate enough votes before its score moves meaningfully from the site-wide average — this prevents new sites from dominating on a handful of votes. Full methodology at /how-we-rate.
No. Affiliate partnerships fund operations; they have no access to the ranking engine. If you ever see a page where a lower-scored casino is listed above a higher-scored one for reasons that look commercial, email editorial@casinorankr.com and we will publish an explanation or a correction.
