Publishing standards
Editorial Standards & Corrections
CasinoOfficialSite publishes factual information about casino websites, accounts, payments, bonuses, games, verification requirements, operators and licenses.
This page explains the editorial standards used when information is sourced, written, updated or corrected.
Source Priority
When several sources are available, CasinoOfficialSite generally gives priority to information closest to the product or fact being described.
- Direct observation — live casino websites, accounts, cashier screens, registration, payments, KYC, games and support interfaces.
- Operator sources — terms, bonus rules, legal information, company details, KYC/AML policies and restricted-country lists.
- Regulator and public records — official records used to confirm or contextualize operator and license information.
- Direct support responses — statements from the operator or its representatives when a practical question is not clear elsewhere.
- Secondary sources — used for context when a current primary source is unavailable or the context genuinely requires it.
How We Describe Evidence
Checked means a fact passed through our verification process. Observed means Alex Vega personally saw the information in an accessible live interface. Source-verified or published means it was confirmed through an appropriate primary source. Tested or completed is used only where an action was actually carried through.
See How We Verify Casino Information for the full methodology.
Writing Standards
A published statement should not go further than the evidence supporting it.
If a cashier displays a minimum withdrawal, we can publish the displayed minimum. If support states a typical processing time, we can identify it as an operator or support-stated timeframe. If an official register confirms a license number or operator, we can report what that record shows.
Those facts are not automatically expanded into claims about guaranteed payout speed, guaranteed account approval, legal availability everywhere, universal payment availability or guaranteed bonus eligibility.
Unsupported Claims
CasinoOfficialSite does not publish unsupported information as established fact.
- a bonus amount or promo code that cannot be confirmed;
- a native app that has not been verified;
- a payout timeframe presented as tested without completed evidence;
- a no-KYC claim not supported by current account or operator information;
- a license status that cannot be supported by the relevant source;
- ownership or company information inferred without evidence.
If a fact cannot be established with enough confidence to publish it accurately, it is normally left out until a better source is available.
Dates, Updates and Rechecks
Checked or Last checked refers to a specific brand, product area, source or factual verification. Last updated indicates that the page itself was materially changed. Last reviewed is used on methodology or policy pages when the underlying rules or process have been reviewed again for accuracy.
Dates are not changed simply to make a page appear newer.
Information That Changes Frequently
Welcome bonuses, promotions, payment methods, crypto networks, withdrawal minimums, KYC requirements, country restrictions, game providers and operator or license details can change. When a new check shows a material change, the relevant page can be updated.
Corrections
Readers, operators and other interested parties can report factual issues through the Contact page. A useful correction report identifies the page, the statement believed to be incorrect or outdated, the current information and a primary source where available.
A correction request is checked against the available evidence before a page is changed.
Conflicting Sources
Sometimes two relevant sources do not show the same information. When the difference is material, CasinoOfficialSite does not silently select the version that is more commercially attractive.
The page may explain what each source shows and identify the context or date. Where the conflict cannot be resolved, the unresolved status should remain clear.
Affiliate Relationships and Commercial Placement
CasinoOfficialSite is funded through affiliate relationships. Commercial relationships can affect which brands are featured in commercial areas of the site, which brands receive calls to action and where commercial links appear.
Commercial placement is separate from factual verification. A partnership does not change what is visible in a casino account, what a cashier displays, what bonus terms state, what an operator legal page publishes or what a regulator record shows.
See the Affiliate Disclosure.
Author Responsibility
Verification findings published under the name Alex Vega are based on checks he performed and sources used for the relevant page.
The value of an author attribution comes from the work behind the page: identifiable sources, direct checks, dated evidence and accurate reporting.
Reader and Operator Feedback
CasinoOfficialSite accepts factual correction reports from readers and operators. A report does not automatically result in a change; the relevant evidence is checked first.
Requests are evaluated on factual accuracy and current evidence, regardless of whether the published information is favorable or unfavorable to an operator.
Editorial and Commercial Separation
CasinoOfficialSite is a commercial affiliate website, and that relationship is disclosed openly. Commercial considerations can affect which brands receive commercial placement, but they do not alter how verified factual findings or source-backed claims are reported.
