About us
Free-Spins.org publishes casino reviews and comparison tables for welcome free spins and related bonuses. The default English site is for UK readers. Ireland, Canada and New Zealand have their own sections. We are an affiliate publisher: Visit buttons are commercial links, offers are marked #Ad, and we may earn a commission if you sign up.
Last updated: 12 September 2026. This page explains how we rate brands and how affiliate relationships work. It does not change the scores shown on reviews.
How we rate
The /10 figure next to a brand — for example 9.8/10 — is our editorial score for that review. It is a judgement we assign. The site does not show a player-vote average, and the order is not a ranking from an independent body.
We have not published a points formula that turns licence, wagering or bonus size into that number. How much any one factor moves a given score is editorial judgement.
When you sort the homepage table by Rating, the order follows those scores. Other sorts follow the name on the card, the bonus amount shown, or how recently the review was published.
What reviews cover
When we write or refresh a review we look at published information from the operator — bonus pages, terms, licence statements and payment lists — plus our own editorial notes. An earlier version of this page already listed these as the things we examine:
- Whether the casino holds a recognised licence
- The nature of bonuses offered
- The specific wagering requirements for each bonus
- The level of customer support available
- Availability of live chat assistance
Those points belong in the write-up. We do not publish a test-account log — deposits, playthroughs or withdrawal timings — tied to the /10 scores, and this page does not add invented tests. Recent UK pages say when a welcome line was last written and when it was not first-party re-checked.
How brands are selected, and how affiliate partnerships affect placement
The UK homepage table is a short list of brands we have reviewed for UK readers. It is not every UK-licensed casino.
We have commercial affiliate partnerships with the brands behind our Visit buttons. That is why a brand can appear with a Visit link, and why offers are marked #Ad. Partnerships affect which brands we cover. They can also affect placement when the table is sorted by Rating, because that order follows our scores — not an independent ranking.
