Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: January 2026

At Oecc2021 (oecc2021.org), we are committed to transparency with our readers. This page discloses our affiliate relationships and explains how they work alongside our independent review process.

What Are Affiliate Links?

Oecc2021 is a participant in affiliate marketing programmes operated by online gambling operators and casino networks. When you click on certain links on our website and complete a sign-up or deposit with a casino operator, we may receive a commission or referral fee from that operator.

These affiliate links are used to track referrals and are typically identified by unique tracking codes. The operator pays us a commission based on your action (such as registration or first deposit), not based on whether you win or lose money with them.

How Affiliate Commissions Work

Our affiliate relationships operate as follows:

• You click an affiliate link to a casino operator from our website
• The operator's system tracks that you arrived via Oecc2021
• If you create an account and/or make a deposit, we receive a commission
• You pay no additional fees—the commission comes from the operator's marketing budget
• Your experience and pricing with the operator remain unchanged

We earn commissions from the operators we review and recommend. However, this financial relationship does not compromise our editorial standards or review integrity.

Editorial Independence and Objectivity

James Wilson, founder and lead reviewer at Oecc2021, maintains strict editorial independence despite these affiliate relationships. Our reviews are conducted according to rigorous, documented criteria and are not influenced by commission potential.

Key points regarding our independence:

• Unbiased Reviews: We review casinos based on their actual features, licensing, security, game selection, customer service, and player experience—not affiliate payouts
• Negative Reviews: We publish honest critical assessments of operators, even when they are affiliate partners
• No Pay-for-Placement: High affiliate commissions do not guarantee higher review ratings or prominent placement on our site
• Consistent Standards: All reviewed operators are evaluated against the same comprehensive methodology
• Author Expertise: James Wilson brings over 15 years of experience in the online gambling industry, including regulatory compliance, player protection, and operator analysis

Our Review Methodology

Every casino review at Oecc2021 is conducted using a standardised evaluation framework that includes:

• Regulatory licensing and jurisdiction verification
• Security, encryption, and data protection standards
• Game variety, software providers, and Return to Player (RTP) rates
• Deposit and withdrawal methods, processing times, and fees
• Customer support responsiveness and availability
• Bonus terms, wagering requirements, and fairness
• Mobile experience and platform stability
• Player complaints, disputes, and resolution records
• Responsible gambling features and player protection measures

This methodology remains constant regardless of affiliate commission structures.

Transparency and Trust

We disclose our affiliate relationships because we believe in transparency. You have the right to know that we may earn commissions from the operators we recommend. This disclosure does not diminish the value of our reviews—rather, it demonstrates our commitment to honesty.

Our reputation depends on providing accurate, helpful information. Misleading reviews or biased recommendations would damage that reputation and ultimately harm our readers. We choose integrity over short-term commission gains.

Your Rights and Choices

You are free to visit any casino operator directly without using our affiliate links. Your decision to use our links or not does not affect the quality or availability of our reviews. We provide the same comprehensive analysis to all readers regardless of whether they convert through our links.

Contact and Questions

If you have questions about our affiliate relationships or review process, please contact James Wilson directly through our website contact page. We are happy to discuss our methodology and answer any concerns about editorial independence.

Oecc2021 is committed to responsible gambling information and operates in compliance with UK gambling regulations and FTC guidelines.
