Quick answer: This is the advertising disclosure for Elitei Games. We label advertising, sponsored content and press releases, and we use affiliate links to some licensed operators. Paid arrangements never influence our reviews, ratings or rankings, and everything commercial is disclosed in line with the FTC endorsement guidelines.

Key takeaways

  • We disclose all paid and affiliate relationships clearly.
  • We label advertising, sponsored content and press releases as commercial.
  • We separate money from editorial — reviews are never for sale.
  • Affiliate links may earn us a commission at no cost to you and do not change our verdicts.
  • 18+ only — we publish information and reviews and do not facilitate gambling.

What we disclose and why

Readers deserve to know when content is paid for. That is both the right thing to do and a requirement under the FTC endorsement guidelines. So on Elitei Games we make commercial relationships visible rather than hiding them, and we keep them separate from our independent editorial.

Types of commercial content on Elitei Games

  • Advertising — display placements and sponsorships, labelled as advertising.
  • Sponsored content — paid articles, labelled “sponsored”.
  • Press releases — company-supplied announcements, labelled as such.
  • Affiliate links — links to licensed operators that may earn us a commission.

How affiliate links are disclosed

Where a link to a licensed operator is an affiliate link, we may earn a commission if you sign up through it, at no extra cost to you. We disclose that these links exist, and their presence never affects our rating, ranking or the drawbacks we publish. We only include affiliate links for operators we are prepared to write about honestly.

How sponsored and paid content is labelled

Sponsored articles carry a clear “sponsored” label; press releases are marked as company-supplied announcements; advertising is identified as advertising. We will not remove or soften these labels, because that would mislead you and defeat the purpose of disclosure. If you ever see commercial content here that is not clearly labelled, please tell us via the contact page.

What advertising never buys

Paid arrangements do not buy a review, a rating, a ranking or an endorsement. We do not sell undisclosed or disguised paid links, we do not accept “pay to be reviewed” deals, and we decline revenue conditioned on changing our verdict. Our editorial is decided by our team on merit alone.

Our compliance commitments

  • Licensed brands only — we work with operators that hold the relevant licences.
  • Lawful promotion — advertising must comply with the rules of each target market.
  • No appeal to minors — all content is for adults aged 18 and over.
  • No guaranteed wins — we do not publish promises of winnings or invented odds, RTP or payout figures.
  • Responsible gambling — commercial content carries responsible-gambling messaging.

Responsible gambling

Elitei Games is an information and review site for adults. We do not operate a casino, take bets or process any gambling transaction. Our subject can carry real financial risk, so we include responsible-gambling context and expect our commercial partners to do the same.

18+ only. Gamble responsibly. If gambling is causing harm, seek help — services like GamCare, GambleAware and local helplines offer free, confidential support.
