Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: 2026 | Website: boltonbeerfestival.org.uk | Owner: James Whitfield

Our Commitment to Transparency

At Boltonbeerfestival, we believe that every reader deserves to know exactly how this website operates and how it generates revenue. This Affiliate Disclosure page exists to give you complete clarity about our commercial relationships, so you can read our casino reviews and recommendations with full confidence and informed understanding.

Please read this page carefully before using any links or relying on any recommendations published on boltonbeerfestival.org.uk.

What Is an Affiliate Relationship?

An affiliate relationship is a commercial arrangement between a content publisher, such as Boltonbeerfestival, and a third-party operator, such as an online casino or gambling platform. When we include a link to an online casino on this website and a visitor clicks that link, then creates an account or makes a deposit, Boltonbeerfestival may earn a commission or referral fee from that operator as a result.

This commission comes at no additional cost to you. You pay exactly the same amount you would pay by visiting the operator's website directly. The affiliate fee is paid by the operator, not by the player.

How Affiliate Links Work on This Site

Throughout boltonbeerfestival.org.uk, you will find links, buttons, and calls to action that direct you to online casino platforms. Many of these are affiliate links. When you use one of these links, a small piece of tracking technology records the referral so the operator can attribute the sign-up to our website and pay us the agreed commission.

Commission-based links may appear in casino reviews, comparison tables, bonus listings, and recommended casino sections.
Not all links are affiliate links. We occasionally link to regulatory bodies, responsible gambling organisations, and informational resources without any commercial arrangement in place.
We only link to licensed operators that hold valid licences from the UK Gambling Commission or another recognised regulatory authority applicable to GB players.

Does This Affect Our Editorial Independence?

No. Our affiliate relationships do not influence the content, scores, or conclusions of any review published on this website.

James Whitfield, the owner and lead reviewer of Boltonbeerfestival, applies a consistent and structured review methodology to every casino platform assessed on this site. Commercial relationships with operators do not determine which casinos are recommended, which receive positive assessments, or how individual scores are assigned. Casinos that perform poorly in our evaluation criteria will receive honest, critical reviews regardless of any affiliate arrangement.

Our Review Methodology

Every online casino reviewed by James Whitfield is assessed against a defined set of criteria to ensure objectivity and usefulness for UK-based players. These criteria include:

Licensing and regulatory compliance – verifying valid UK Gambling Commission licences and player protections
Bonus terms and fairness – examining wagering requirements, withdrawal conditions, and promotional transparency
Game library and software quality – evaluating the range, variety, and quality of games available
Payment methods and withdrawal speed – assessing the options available to GB players and typical processing times
Customer support quality – testing responsiveness, availability, and helpfulness of support channels
Responsible gambling tools – confirming the availability of deposit limits, self-exclusion, and support resources

FTC Compliance and UK Consumer Disclosure

In accordance with the guidelines of the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the UK's Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), Boltonbeerfestival is required to disclose any material connections between this website and the brands featured within it. This page serves as that disclosure. Where affiliate links appear within individual pages or reviews, additional inline disclosures may also be present.
