CasinoPie Affiliate Disclosure

At CasinoPie, absolute transparency is the cornerstone of our platform. We believe you have the right to know exactly how our business operates and how we fund the research, testing, and development behind our data-driven casino reviews. This page explains our affiliate business model and how we protect our editorial independence.

How We Keep CasinoPie Free

Building and maintaining a platform like CasinoPie requires significant resources. We employ a dedicated team of iGaming experts, software developers, and data analysts who continuously monitor the market, test platforms, and update our "Living Content" engine.

To keep our platform 100% free for our users without resorting to disruptive display ads or paywalls, we use affiliate marketing.

What Does Affiliate Marketing Mean?

When you click on a link on CasinoPie that directs you to an online casino, that link often contains a tracking code. If you register an account and make a deposit at that casino, we may earn a referral commission from the operator.

  • No Extra Cost to You: Using our links does not cost you anything. In fact, because of our established industry partnerships, using our links often grants you access to exclusive bonus codes and higher welcome offers that you wouldn't find by going to the casino directly.

The Editorial Firewall: Does This Affect Our Ratings?

Absolutely not. This is the most important promise we make to our community.

While CasinoPie (owned and operated by iBetMedia UAB) functions as a business, we maintain a strict "firewall" between our commercial partnerships and our editorial team.

Our reviews and rankings are generated entirely by the CasinoPie Trust Index (CTI). This data-driven algorithm evaluates casinos based on measurable facts: payout speeds, licensing, fairness of terms, and real player feedback.

  • Trust Scores Are Not for Sale: An online casino cannot pay us to increase their Trust Score.

  • We Blacklist Paying Partners: If an affiliate partner changes their terms to become predatory, delays player withdrawals, or fails our safety checks, we will lower their score or blacklist them—even if it means losing affiliate revenue. Player safety always comes first.

Why Are We Telling You This?

We publish this disclosure for two reasons:

  1. Legal Compliance: We strictly adhere to the guidelines set by the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and other international advertising standards regarding digital endorsements.

  2. Earning Your Trust: The online gambling industry is filled with biased reviews and hidden agendas. By being entirely open about how we make money, we hope to earn and keep your trust as your primary source for casino information.

Frequently Asked Questions

Not necessarily. We link to licensing authorities (like the MGA or Curacao eGaming), responsible gambling organizations (like GamCare), and informational resources without any financial compensation. However, you should assume that any link pointing directly to an online casino is a tracked affiliate link.
