Open methodology

A score should explain a decision—not replace one.

PrizeLens Score is a 0–100 research signal built from evidence categories. Commercial compensation is tracked separately and cannot buy points.

Reliability signals

Operator history, consistency of published information and available current evidence—not popularity alone.

Evidence standard

Verified means supportable.

  • ✓ A current official operator page, rules document, terms or direct source supports the material fact.
  • ✓ PrizeLens can record the source and review context.
  • ✓ Important qualifiers are preserved instead of reduced to a misleading headline.
  • ✓ Conflicting or missing evidence is disclosed rather than guessed.

Not rated is intentional

No evidence, no confident score.

“Not rated” does not automatically mean unsafe or poor. It means PrizeLens is withholding the score until enough current evidence supports applying the methodology responsibly.

Affiliate separation

A casino can be monetized and remain unrated or score lower. CPA, revenue share, sponsorship and referral economics never add PrizeLens Score points.

Scores can change

Rules, availability, redemption processes and evidence change. Material re-verification can change a score.

Corrections

Current official evidence is welcome regardless of whether the sender has a commercial relationship with PrizeLens.
