🐝 Advertising Disclosure Policy

Welcome to SweepsBuzz.com. Transparency is the core pillar of our relationship with our readers. To maintain complete honesty and comply fully with consumer protection regulations, industry standards, and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines, this page outlines exactly how SweepsBuzz.com operates, how we generate revenue, and how we protect our editorial independence.

1. Our Monetization Model (Affiliate Partnerships)

SweepsBuzz.com is a free, independently owned consumer directory, news portal, and testing resource. To fund our high-frequency software audits, legal mapping, and deep-dive brand testing, we participate in affiliate marketing programs.

What this means for you:

  • When you click on a registration link, “Play Now” button, banner, or promotional card on our site, you are using a unique affiliate tracking link.
  • If you proceed to create an account, claim a welcome bonus, or purchase an optional coin package at that specific social or sweepstakes casino, SweepsBuzz.com may receive financial compensation or a referral commission from the operator.
  • This process is completely free to you. Utilizing our promo codes or tracking links never adds any premium, hidden charge, or extra cost to your gameplay. In fact, our partnerships frequently allow us to negotiate exclusive sign-up bonuses that are higher than the standard public offers.

2. Safeguarding Our Editorial Independence

Many affiliate review sites allow financial compensation to dictate their rankings. SweepsBuzz.com operates under a strict firewall that separates our monetization from our research.

Our core review desk—led by Chin Ho (Editor-in-Chief) and our specialized testing analysts—has no access to individual corporate marketing contracts. Our monetization agreements strictly forbid partner casinos from:

  • Buying a higher numerical rating score on our site.
  • Forcing the removal of documented platform flaws, slow redemption timelines, or negative user feedback.
  • Influencing our mathematical review algorithms.

If a casino operates with restrictive terms of service, high coin-playthrough requirements (e.g., over a 1x wagering threshold on Sweepstakes Coins), or unhelpful support response loops, we call it out explicitly. Our priority is consumer safety, and our ratings change dynamically based on ongoing data testing, not commercial preferences. For more details on this framework, please see our standalone Editorial Independence Statement.

4. Third-Party Brand Ownership & Independent Status

SweepsBuzz.com is an entirely independent review authority. We are not owned by, operated by, or structurally affiliated with any sweepstakes casino operator, gambling corporation, or game development studio. All brand names, logos, trademarks, and interfaces referenced across our reviews remain the intellectual property of their respective owners.
