The Fine Print
Affiliate disclosure.
How this site makes money, in plain English — because a site about honest gambling content should be honest about its own incentives.
Last updated: July 15, 2026
The short version
Some links on Dads of Gambling are affiliate links. If you click one and sign up or make a purchase at a casino, we may earn a commission. It costs you nothing extra, and it never changes what we write.
The full version
Which links are affiliate links
Casinos marked with the gold “Affiliate Partner” badge on our casino floor have a commercial relationship with us. Links to those casinos may be affiliate links, and they carry the rel="sponsored" attribute in our HTML. Casinos labeled “Listed” have no relationship with us — we track them because readers ask about them.
What it pays us
Affiliate programs typically pay a fixed bounty or a revenue share when a referred player signs up or purchases coin packages. The exact terms vary by casino and change over time.
What it does not buy
- Ratings. Lodge scores are set by our own review criteria before any commercial conversation happens, and a partnership never moves a score.
- Placement. We don’t sell positions in our lists or “featured” slots.
- Silence. If a partner casino does something bad for players, we say so — partnership or not.
About the numbers on this site
We only publish welcome offers and promo codes we have verified ourselves, and each one carries the date we checked it. Offers change constantly and can vary by state — always confirm the current terms on the casino’s own site before relying on anything printed here.
Our own games
The slots on Our Games are built by us and published through Stake Engine, which means we earn revenue when they’re played. That’s a direct commercial interest, and we label those games as ours everywhere they appear.
FTC compliance
This disclosure is made in accordance with the US Federal Trade Commission’s guidelines on endorsements and testimonials (16 CFR Part 255).
