How We Rate Every Site
Twelve scored categories, real accounts, real money and re-audits on a monthly to quarterly cycle. Here is the whole process.
The 12-Category Audit
Every score on this site rolls up from twelve individually weighted categories. Nothing is estimated and nothing is taken from a press kit.
1. SC Value
The real redeemable value of welcome and ongoing offers, ignoring GC noise.
2. Payout Speed
Actual timed redemptions, measured to the hour, per method.
3. Game Depth
Quality and variety of the lobby, weighted toward exclusive and jackpot titles.
4. Mobile Experience
Apps and mobile web tested on both platforms, including older devices.
5. Daily Rewards
Login ladders, wheels and drips measured over a full 30-day cycle.
6. Purchase Value
Coin package pricing and first-purchase boosts compared per dollar.
7. Terms Fairness
Playthrough, minimums and edge-case rules read line by line.
8. Support Quality
Response times and answer quality across chat and email, tested anonymously.
9. Verification Flow
How fast and painless KYC is, because it gates every redemption.
10. State Coverage
How many US states the operator serves and how clearly it says so.
11. Transparency
Ownership, licensing and published sweepstakes rules held to the light.
12. Track Record
Operating history, incident record and how the operator treated players when things broke.
Real Accounts, Real Money
We Sign Up

We Purchase

We Redeem
We play through, request a redemption and start the stopwatch. The timing goes straight into the review.
Re-Audits Keep Scores Honest
Sweeps casinos change fast, so our scores cannot stand still. Top-ten sites are re-audited monthly and the rest of the board quarterly. When an operator improves or slips, the score moves and the review page shows the new verification date. If a site fails a re-audit badly enough, it comes off the board entirely.
