Methodology
The Formula Behind Every Number on the Board
Twelve audited categories, real funded accounts, and a stopwatch that does not accept press releases. This page is the model documentation.
Twelve inputs, one composite
Each operator is scored on: welcome value (SC-weighted, GC zeroed), recurring promo yield, redemption speed (clocked), redemption reliability, catalog depth, catalog quality, mobile execution, support response, terms clarity, state coverage, ownership disclosure, and responsible-play tooling. Categories score out of ten and roll into the weighted composite you see, published to one decimal.
Funded accounts only
Every audit runs on an account we open and fund ourselves. We buy the entry bundle, grind the playthrough at documented stakes, and redeem on both rails wherever both exist. If a number appears on this site, there is a receipt behind it.
Refresh cadence
Top-ten files are re-audited monthly; the rest of the board quarterly. Offers get repriced quietly in this market, and stale data is indistinguishable from wrong data. When a composite moves, the review documents which input moved it.
Conflict handling
Referral compensation may follow our links; it cannot precede our numbers. Scores are computed and locked before any commercial discussion, no operator previews a draft, and the pipeline between the analytics side and the revenue side runs one way.
