How to read these fact checks

Fact-check pages are not marketing verdicts. Each claim is tied back to editorial review, public methodology, and live community signals so readers can judge whether a casino is merely present on the site or actually supported by enough evidence.

Fact-Check Methodology

Our fact-checking process combines editorial investigation with community data. We verify company registration, sweepstakes law compliance, payout track records, and security practices. Community vote patterns (Bayesian-weighted) provide real-time signal on community sentiment. Casinos with fewer than 10 community votes are marked "Under Review" until sufficient data is available. See our full methodology.
