At ChampsBase, transparency is part of everything we do. We earn through affiliate links, but never through rankings or ratings. Our reviews, tests, and verdicts are written with complete editorial independence, ensuring every recommendation you read is based on performance, not payment. Learn how our affiliation model works and why our integrity always comes first.
ChampsBase Affiliation - Transparency and Independence
We sometimes use affiliate links: if you open an account through these links, we may earn a small commission. It costs you nothing and helps fund our real tests, pay our writers, and keep the site running.
Our promise stays the same: no pay-to-rank, no influence on ratings or verdicts - editorial decisions are 100% independent.
How We Get Paid
When you click an affiliate link and create an account (sometimes after an action like a first deposit), our partner may pay us a commission. Tracking is done through a URL parameter and/or a cookie, but only if you accept it. This simply identifies that a reader came from ChampsBase - nothing more.
We never receive your banking details or transaction history. Platforms only share basic aggregated events (e.g., “account created”), without sensitive data. Your personal information always stays with the operator under their own privacy policy.
This model doesn’t change anything for you: no extra cost, no hidden fees. Odds, bonuses, and conditions remain exactly the same as those publicly offered by the operator. Affiliate cookies are optional and reversible at any time; you can reject them and still access all our content without restriction.
For technical details (cookie types, duration, how to withdraw consent), see our Privacy Policy.
In short: affiliation funds our testing and writing, but it does not influence our ratings, rankings, or conclusions.
Editorial Independence
Our editorial team alone decides on tests, ratings, and rankings. The partnerships team works separately: they cannot request better scores, higher rankings, or delay publications. No pay-to-rank, ever.
If a brand stops meeting standards, we act.
Examples of reasons for downgrading or removing a recommendation include:
- Longer withdrawal delays
- Bonus conditions changed without clarity
- Security incidents
- KYC/AML compliance failures
- Regulator warnings
- Unreachable customer support
Our process is simple: report → re-test → review. If needed, a profile is marked “Under review” during the audit. Then the rating and verdict are updated - or the recommendation is withdrawn.

Your Control and Your Choices
You’re always in charge:
- Disable or delete affiliate cookies. Use the “Manage my cookies” banner to opt out of optional trackers, or clear cookies in your browser settings.
- Browse without clicking our links. You can still read our pages, copy a brand’s URL, and visit directly.
- Impact us, not you. Refusing cookies or avoiding links may reduce our revenue, but it never affects our ratings, rankings, or conclusions.
What We Disclose, When, and Where
We clearly mark “affiliation” where it matters: on Reviews, Bonus pages (and sometimes App pages), near the buttons leading to operators.
Each page shows its last updated date and a changelog when a major revision has been made (e.g., adjusted rating, updated conditions, re-run test). If a brand is under review, we make that clear.
