Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
80proofactivist.com is an independent review website covering the top 20 betting sites in the UK. This page explains how we make money and how that may (and may not) affect the content you read on this site.
1. We Earn Affiliate Commissions
80proofactivist.com participates in affiliate marketing programmes operated by online casinos, sportsbooks, and betting operators. When you click on certain links on this website and subsequently register an account, make a deposit, or place a bet with the operator, we may receive a commission or referral fee at no additional cost to you.
The price you pay, the bonuses you receive, and the terms offered to you by the operator are the same whether you arrive via our link or by visiting the operator directly.
2. Commissions Do Not Influence Our Rankings or Reviews
Our editorial content — including our rankings of the top 20 betting sites in the UK, individual reviews, ratings, and recommendations — is produced independently of our commercial relationships. Specifically:
- Operators cannot pay to improve their ranking position or review score.
- Commission rates are not a factor in how we rank or rate any operator.
- Reviews are based on our own assessment criteria, including licensing, security, game selection, payment options, customer support, and bonus terms.
- Where we identify shortcomings with an operator, we state them, regardless of any commercial relationship.
3. How to Identify Affiliate or Sponsored Links
We aim to make commercial relationships easy to spot:
- Links that may earn us a commission are typically presented as buttons or links labelled "Visit Site", "Claim Bonus", "Play Now", or similar calls to action.
- Any sponsored content or paid placements will be clearly marked as "Sponsored", "Advertisement", or "Paid Promotion".
- Where a list or ranking contains affiliate links, a disclosure notice will appear at or near the top of that page.
If you are ever unsure whether a link is an affiliate link, assume that outbound links to betting operators on this site may be monetised.
4. Regulatory Compliance (United Kingdom)
As a website directed at users in Great Britain, 80proofactivist.com seeks to operate in accordance with:
- The UK Code of Non-broadcast Advertising and Direct & Promotional Marketing (CAP Code), enforced by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), including the requirement that marketing communications be obviously identifiable as such.
- Guidance issued by the Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) on online reviews, endorsements, and hidden advertising.
- Applicable UK Gambling Commission expectations regarding the marketing of gambling services. We only promote operators that hold a valid UK Gambling Commission licence for customers in Great Britain.
All gambling involves risk. Offers and bonuses are subject to terms and conditions, wagering requirements, and age restrictions (18+). Please visit BeGambleAware.org or GamStop for support and self-exclusion tools.
5. Reader Responsibility
The content on 80proofactivist.com is provided for general information purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, or professional advice. By using this website, you acknowledge that:
- You are responsible for verifying that any operator is licensed and that online gambling is legal in your jurisdiction before registering or depositing funds.
