Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
1. How rustwerk.ca Earns Revenue
rustwerk.ca is a sports betting and casino review website that is free for readers to use. To keep our content free, we participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means that when you click on certain links to sportsbooks, casinos, or other gaming operators featured on our site and subsequently register an account or make a deposit, we may receive a commission from that operator — at no additional cost to you.
2. Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, ratings, reviews, or recommendations. Our reviews are based on independent research, hands-on testing, and clearly defined evaluation criteria. Operators cannot pay to improve their ranking or to have negative findings removed. Where an operator performs poorly against our criteria, we say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.
3. How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We believe in transparency. On rustwerk.ca, affiliate and commercial content is identified in the following ways:
- Links to operators that may earn us a commission are typically marked with a label such as "affiliate link" or an asterisk (*) with an accompanying note.
- Sponsored placements or paid promotional content are clearly labelled "Sponsored" or "Advertisement".
- Operator lists and comparison tables that contain affiliate links include a disclosure note directly above or below the table.
4. Regulatory Compliance (Canada)
rustwerk.ca is committed to complying with Canadian advertising and consumer protection standards, including the Competition Act and the guidance issued by the Competition Bureau of Canada regarding online advertising and influencer/marketing disclosures. We ensure that material connections between rustwerk.ca and the operators we promote are clearly and prominently disclosed. We also make reasonable efforts to ensure that the operators we feature are legally permitted to offer their services in the applicable Canadian provinces and territories, including licensing requirements such as those set by iGaming Ontario and the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario (AGCO) where applicable.
5. Reader Responsibility
