About Our Research & Data Studies
How We Collect Data
Every study draws on a mix of four data streams: first-party player behaviour from our multi-lingual player base, direct operator data from 13 years of negotiating rakeback and VIP terms, public regulatory disclosures and market analytics, and our own tracked databases across 20+ operators.
No operator has editorial input on research findings, and data that reflects poorly on partner operators is published without alteration.
