Affiliate Disclosure

CockadoodleCash.org is a free, independent review and comparison site covering online casinos and the games they offer. To keep this site running without charging readers, we participate in affiliate programs with licensed casino operators. When you click a link on CockadoodleCash.org and register or deposit at a partner casino, we may receive a commission from that operator.

How We Earn

Our revenue comes exclusively from referral commissions paid by casino operators, not from readers. Commission structures vary by partner and may be based on revenue share, a flat fee per qualified player, or a hybrid of both. We never charge a casino to appear in our rankings or reviews, and we never accept payment in exchange for a specific score.

This Does Not Affect Our Ratings

Commercial relationships do not influence our editorial scores. Every casino listed on CockadoodleCash.org is evaluated against the same criteria whether or not it has an affiliate agreement with us. A casino that pays a higher commission does not receive a higher rating - our editorial team scores each operator on licensing, payout speed, game selection, and player feedback, not on partnership value.

Operators that fall below our minimum standards are not listed, even when they offer an affiliate program. We would rather turn away a commission than steer a reader toward an operator we cannot vouch for.

How We Select Partners

We only partner with operators that meet all of the following requirements:

Hold a valid gaming licence from a recognised regulatory authority (such as MGA, UKGC, Curacao eGaming, or equivalent)
Demonstrate a verifiable track record of paying players on time
Publish clear and fair bonus terms with reasonable wagering requirements
Operate responsible gambling tools including deposit limits, self-exclusion, and reality checks
Maintain accessible, responsive customer support

Partnership status is reviewed periodically. If an operator receives sustained complaints about withheld withdrawals, predatory bonus terms, or poor customer service, we suspend or remove the affiliate relationship until the issues are resolved.

FTC Compliance

In accordance with the US Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255), we disclose all material connections between CockadoodleCash.org and the casino operators we cover. Any page that contains affiliate links carries a visible disclosure notice, and this page is accessible from the footer of every page on the site.

We believe readers have the right to know how a site makes money before acting on its recommendations. Our goal is to give you accurate, current information about online casinos and where to play - the affiliate model is how we fund that work, not a reason to compromise it.
