Badgerlodge (ballyscasinogb.co.uk) is a free, independent review site. To keep the lights on and the content free, we earn a commission when you click certain links to casino operators and go on to register or play. We want to be completely upfront about this: these arrangements never cost you a single penny more. You pay exactly the same whether you arrive at a casino through our site or type the address directly into your browser.
What Affiliate Links Are
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL. When you click one on ballyscasinogb.co.uk, the destination casino's system notes that you arrived via our site. If you then create an account or make a deposit, the casino pays us a referral fee. This is a standard commercial arrangement used across most review and comparison websites. The tracked link looks and behaves exactly like a normal link — there are no pop-ups, no hidden redirects, and no extra steps for you.
How We Earn
The table below shows the different points at which a commission might be generated, who pays it, and what it costs you.
| Action | Who Pays the Commission | Cost to You |
|---|---|---|
| You click a review or rating link on ballyscasinogb.co.uk | Nobody — clicking alone triggers no payment | £0 |
| You register a new account at a casino we link to | The casino operator | £0 |
| You make a deposit and play real-money games | The casino operator (a percentage of net revenue) | £0 |
| You claim a welcome bonus through our link | The casino operator | £0 — bonus terms set by the operator remain identical |
How This Affects Our Reviews
The short answer is: it doesn't — and that is a deliberate, firm editorial policy. Rankings and recommendations on ballyscasinogb.co.uk are not for sale. No operator can pay to improve its score, secure a "top pick" badge, or have negative findings removed from a review. Affiliate commission rates are not a factor in how we rank or rate any casino.
We review casinos we believe are genuinely worth recommending to players in Great Britain. If a casino fails on licensing, fairness, or player safety, we say so plainly — even if we hold an active affiliate agreement with that operator. Our long-term credibility depends on honest assessments, and we take that seriously.

- Games and software — game variety, quality of providers, and mobile compatibility

- Customer support — availability, response speed, and helpfulness across live chat and email
FTC & Regulatory Compliance
In accordance with the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) guidelines and the United States Federal Trade Commission's (FTC) endorsement disclosure rules, ballyscasinogb.co.uk discloses its material commercial relationships to readers. The commission-based affiliate relationships described on this page constitute a material connection between Badgerlodge and the casino operators featured on this site. This disclosure page satisfies those transparency obligations and is linked from all relevant review and recommendation pages across the site.
Your Choice
You are never obligated to use our links. If you prefer, you can visit any casino operator directly by searching for them independently. Using our links does not unlock special deals unavailable elsewhere — we simply earn a referral fee if you choose to sign up. The choice is always yours, and we respect it either way.
