Affiliate Disclosure

How we earn, what we commit to, and what we explicitly do not do. Last updated 2026-11-15.

Affiliate disclosure - how BookiePilot earns commissions transparently

The short version

  • BookiePilot earns affiliate commissions when readers sign up at sportsbooks via our links.
  • Affiliate commissions fund our editorial work. They do not influence which operators we recommend.
  • We commit to: honest rankings, documenting negative facts, excluding operators that fail our audit, and full disclosure.
  • We do not: accept payments to rank operators above their merit, hide negative facts, or recommend operators we don't believe in.
  • If you'd like to support us without using affiliate links, just share our content with someone who would find it useful.

How we earn

BookiePilot operates an affiliate-commission model. When a reader clicks an outbound link from our site to a sportsbook (e.g., a "Visit Site" or "Claim Bonus" button) and subsequently registers and deposits at that operator, the operator pays us a commission. Commission structures vary - typically a fixed amount per qualifying registration ("CPA") or a percentage of net revenue generated by the referred customer over time ("revenue share").

These commissions are how we fund the editorial work behind 93 country pages, 10 in-depth guides, ongoing operator audits, quarterly content reviews, and the technical infrastructure that delivers all of this. Affiliate revenue is the standard funding model for sportsbook comparison platforms; the alternatives (paid subscriptions, advertising) tend to perform worse for users and operators alike.

The cost to you is zero. You don't pay anything extra by clicking through our affiliate links versus going directly to the operator. The commission comes from the operator's marketing budget, not from your account.

What we commit to

Affiliate commissions create a structural alignment between our recommendations and operators that pay us. We've made several specific commitments to manage this honestly:

  • We don't accept payment to rank operators above their merit. Our tier system (Featured, Standard, High-Roller) reflects our editorial assessment using the 5-pillar audit framework documented on our methodology page. Higher commission rates do not translate into higher rankings.
  • We document negative facts about operators that pay us. Wagering requirements above 35x, slow withdrawals, predatory T&Cs, customer support quality issues - we publish these in operator reviews and country pages even when the operator is in our directory and pays us commissions.
  • We exclude operators that fail our audit. An operator that pays generous affiliate commissions but fails on licensing, payouts, or bonus fairness does not get added to our directory. Several operators that approached us with commission offers have been excluded for these reasons.
  • We label all affiliate links. Outbound links to sportsbooks are clearly identified - typically "Visit Site," "Claim Bonus," or "Sign Up" buttons - and the entire affiliate-disclosure context is available on this page and via the persistent banner at the top of every page.
  • We are transparent about our methodology. The full editorial framework is published at /methodology. Read it; it documents exactly how we evaluate operators and what we do not claim.

What we do not do

  • We do not write paid endorsements as if they were independent reviews. Our reviews are editorial - written using the same audit framework regardless of commission structure.
  • We do not promote operators that have demonstrated harm to players. Documented patterns of slow-walking withdrawals, applying T&Cs selectively against winning customers, or failing to pay legitimate winnings result in exclusion regardless of commission rates.
  • We do not target US, EU, UK, Australian, or Chinese residents. The operators we recommend hold international licenses (predominantly Curaçao eGaming) that don't extend to those jurisdictions. Our editorial focus is exclusively on emerging markets in LATAM, Africa, and Asia.
  • We do not promote betting to minors. All operators we recommend require 18+ verification (21+ in some jurisdictions). Our content is intended for legal-age adults only.
  • We do not personalise affiliate links based on user characteristics in ways readers wouldn't expect. Outbound links go directly to operator-tracked URLs that tag the referrer (us); we don't insert third-party tracking that follows readers across the web.

Specific operators in our directory

The 10 operators in our directory pay us commissions:

  • BetWinner, Melbet, BetLabel (Featured tier)
  • 20Bet, 22Bet, BetRepublic (Standard tier)
  • MyBookie, XBet, BUSR, Bet105 (High-Roller tier - Curaçao-licensed .ag operators)

Commission structures and rates vary by operator and are negotiated individually. We do not publish exact commission terms (these are commercially sensitive), but we commit that variation in commission rates does not change our editorial assessment of any operator.

Want to support us without using affiliate links?

Just share our content. If a country page, a guide, or a comparison helped you make a better decision, share it with someone who would find it useful. Word-of-mouth is genuinely how independent editorial work survives - affiliate revenue funds the team but readership growth is what justifies the team's existence.

Questions or concerns?

If you spot something on the site that feels inconsistent with these commitments - a recommendation that seems off, a fact that doesn't match your direct experience with an operator, or content that reads like it was paid for - please contact us. We take this seriously and would rather hear about specific issues than have readers quietly lose trust in the content.
