Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: March 2026
Who we are and what we do
BalkanKasino is a review site built on one principle: honest reviews backed by verifiable documentation. We read each operator's full terms and conditions, bonus rules, and payout policies, verify the licence against the regulator's register, and cross-check it all against what the operator's live website advertises. Every casino on this site has gone through that process before we publish a single word about it. The site is free to use — we fund it through affiliate commissions, which we explain below.
Where the money comes from
Some of the links on BalkanKasino are affiliate links. If you click one and create an account at that casino, the operator may pay us a referral fee. This is standard across the industry and it costs you absolutely nothing — your bonuses, odds, and payouts are identical regardless of how you arrived at the casino's site.
Our review method and how commissions fit in
Every review starts the same way: we pull the operator's published terms and conditions, bonus rules, payment pages, and support documentation, then check the licence number against the issuing regulator's public register. We record what the operator itself states about wagering requirements, withdrawal windows, and payment methods — and where an operator publishes nothing, we say so rather than estimating. We do not claim first-hand play testing. That process does not change based on what an operator pays us. That said, here are the ways commissions do matter:
- We can only review casinos that have affiliate programs — without revenue, the site cannot exist
- An operator paying a higher commission may appear higher on a listing page, but their review score is based purely on the documented facts we assessed
- Bonus details on our site reflect the operator's published terms at the time of review — operators change terms frequently, so always confirm on their site before depositing
Lines we refuse to cross
Revenue keeps the lights on, but it does not buy a good review. Specifically, we will never:
- List a casino whose licence we cannot verify, or whose published payout terms we consider unacceptable for players
- Remove or soften a negative review because an operator pressured us
- Fabricate bonus figures, inflate ratings, invent payout speeds, or hide unfavorable wagering terms
How we handle accuracy
We verify every bonus, license status, and payment method against the operator's own published documents at the time of review. However, online casinos update their promotions constantly — sometimes daily. If you spot something outdated, let us know and we will fix it. In the meantime, always check the operator's terms page for the most current offer before you deposit.
Play responsibly
Online gambling carries real financial risk. Each Balkan country has its own regulations — make sure you understand what applies where you live. Set deposit limits, take breaks, and never chase losses. If gambling feels like a problem rather than entertainment, reach out to a local support organization immediately.
