Affiliate Disclosure

How we earn

Betbolts is an affiliate site. That means: when a reader clicks one of our outbound links, signs up at Betbolt, and later makes a deposit, the operator pays us a commission. The commission is a share of the operator's own net revenue from that player, calculated over a defined window; it is not a click-level payment and it is not a signup-level bonus. We do not know your name, your account balance, or how much you have staked — the operator does the accounting and sends us a monthly report that shows aggregate figures by source, not by individual player.

We are transparent about this because UK advertising rules require it, and because a reader who understands how a site is funded is a reader who can weigh what it says.

Which links are affiliate

Every link on this site that sends you to Betbolt is an affiliate link. Every button labelled Play at Betbolts, Get Bonus, Sign Up or something similar is an affiliate link. Every mention of a promo code with a copy-to-clipboard button routes through an affiliate link. Links to third parties who are not Betbolt — a regulator, a helpline, a Wikipedia article, the app stores — are not affiliate links and never carry commission.

We do not disguise affiliate links as regular editorial links. If a link is monetised, its behaviour is the same on every page: it opens in a new tab and it goes through our redirector so that the click is attributed to us.

Editorial independence

The operator does not see, review, or approve pages on this site before they are published. We do not send drafts for comment. We do not accept edits to wording after publication except when the edit is a genuine correction of a factual error and the operator has provided a primary source. Commercial teams at Betbolt do not have the editor's phone number, and vice versa; the relationship between the two organisations is arm's length and is confined to the standard affiliate reporting.

An operator we would not recommend does not receive a lukewarm review; it does not get a page here at all. If Betbolt materially degraded — for example, by delaying withdrawals or by changing bonus terms unfavourably without notice — we would say so and, if the degradation continued, we would deprecate the site.

The price to you

The commission we earn is paid by the operator, out of the operator's own revenue. It is not added to your losses, it does not change the terms of the bonuses you claim, and it does not affect the odds or the game outcomes in any way. You do not pay more, you do not get less, and you do not get a worse experience because you arrived through Betbolts than you would if you had typed the Betbolt URL directly into your browser.

If anything, arriving through us is often marginally better for the reader, because the affiliate offer sometimes carries a promo code that is not visible on the operator's own homepage.

Regulatory note

This disclosure exists to comply with the Advertising Standards Authority code, the Committee of Advertising Practice's rules on affiliate marketing, and the Gambling Commission's licence conditions and codes of practice. If any part of the disclosure is unclear, please write to us and we will rephrase it — a disclosure that no reader can parse is not really a disclosure at all.

What this changes for you

The short version: read our pages knowing that we are paid when you sign up. The pages have been written on the assumption that you know that; if a specific paragraph would embarrass us in a world where the reader knew we were compensated, that paragraph should not have been there and we would like you to tell us about it. Aside from that, use the site the way you would use any other reference: check the numbers we quote against the operator's live terms before you decide, and treat our verdict as one opinion among several.
