Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
PoweredByAge.com is an independent review website covering sports betting apps and online casinos. This page explains how our site is funded and how we handle commercial relationships with the operators we review.
1. We Earn Affiliate Commissions
PoweredByAge.com participates in affiliate marketing programs. When you click certain links on our site and subsequently register, deposit, or place wagers with a casino or sportsbook operator, we may earn a commission from that operator. This commission is paid by the operator — it never costs you anything extra. In some cases, our partnerships allow us to offer you exclusive bonuses or better terms than you would find elsewhere.
2. Commissions Do Not Influence Our Reviews
Our editorial integrity is not for sale. Affiliate commissions do not influence our rankings, ratings, or the content of our reviews. Our testing methodology is applied consistently to every operator we evaluate, including those with whom we have no commercial relationship. Operators cannot pay for a higher ranking, a better score, or the removal of legitimate criticism. Where an operator falls short — on payout speed, customer support, licensing, or responsible gambling tools — we say so.
3. How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We believe transparency requires clarity, not fine print:
- Outbound links to casinos and sportsbooks within reviews, comparison tables, and "Visit Site" / "Claim Bonus" buttons are typically affiliate links.
- Any paid placement or sponsored content is clearly labelled "Sponsored" or "Advertisement" at the point of display.
- Affiliate links may include tracking parameters in the URL — this is how operators attribute your visit to us.
4. Regulatory Compliance
As a website serving readers in Canada, we comply with the Competition Act (Canada), which requires that material connections between endorsers and advertisers be clearly and conspicuously disclosed. We also follow guidance issued by the Competition Bureau of Canada on influencer and online marketing practices. Where our content reaches readers in Ontario, we ensure it aligns with the advertising and marketing standards of iGaming Ontario and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO), including the requirement that we only promote operators holding valid Ontario licences to that audience. Readers in other provinces should verify that an operator is licensed or permitted in their jurisdiction before registering.
5. Your Responsibility as a Reader
While we strive for accuracy, offers, bonuses, odds, and terms can change at any time and are controlled solely by the operators. You are responsible for:
- Verifying that online gambling is legal in your province or territory and that you meet the minimum age requirement (19+ in most provinces; 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec).
- Reading the full terms and conditions of any bonus or promotion before accepting it, including wagering requirements and withdrawal restrictions.
- Confirming the operator holds a valid licence for your jurisdiction.
- Gambling responsibly and within your means. If gambling stops being fun, help is available through resources such as ConnexOntario (1-866-531-2600) or your provincial problem gambling support service.
