Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: 5 October 2026
Fake Stake is free to use and carries no ads. It is funded by affiliate commissions from links to third-party casinos.
How It Works
Links and buttons labelled "Play For Real", "Claim Bonus", "Get Bonus" or similar point to real-money gambling operators. Every casino listed on this site is an advertising partner — Rainbet, Stake, BC.Game, Roobet, Shuffle and Gamdom. If you follow one of those links, register and play, we receive a commission from that operator. It costs you nothing extra, and where we have negotiated one our link carries an enhanced offer and an exclusive promo code compared with the public signup.
Outbound buttons link directly to each operator's own tracking address. There is no redirect on this domain in between and nothing is appended to the link — the operator's system reads it and attributes the visit. We set no cookies of our own on the way out and store nothing about the click.
What That Means For You
We have a financial incentive for you to click those links and sign up, on every casino page without exception. There is no "independent" listing here and we will not claim one. You should factor that in when reading anything on this site that describes a bonus favourably.
What we do instead of claiming neutrality: publish the full rating rubric with weights and per-criterion sub-scores so the reasoning is checkable; publish the unflattering parts of every offer — wagering requirements, game weighting, the fact that a headline bonus figure is a ceiling rather than a guarantee; and keep a cons section in every review, including documented withdrawal complaints against the brands we promote hardest. The brand we feature most prominently sits fourth of six on Trust Score.
If you would rather not send us a commission, navigate to the operator yourself rather than using our buttons — we do not publish untracked links to them. The site works exactly the same either way, every game on it stays free, and none of the calculators or guides is gated behind a click.
What We Do Not Do
- We do not accept payment to fabricate reviews or invent ratings.
- We do not claim any casino is "safe", "beatable" or "guaranteed" — no casino is.
- We do not target minors, and we do not present gambling as a way to make money.
- We do not operate the casinos we link to, and we have no control over their bonuses, payouts or account decisions.
Independence
Commercial relationships do not change the fact that every real-money casino game carries a house edge and loses money for players over time. No bonus, rakeback rate or promo code on this site reverses that, and our calculators are built to show you the cost rather than hide it. Our responsible gambling page exists for that reason and is not sponsored by anyone.
