Kathwalker Illustration (kathwalker-illustration.co.uk) is committed to transparency with our readers. This page explains how we earn money through affiliate relationships and how these relationships do not compromise the independence or integrity of our casino reviews and recommendations.
An affiliate link is a special hyperlink that contains tracking information. When you click an affiliate link on Kathwalker Illustration and subsequently sign up with or make a deposit at a gambling operator, we receive a commission from that operator. This commission is paid by the casino or gambling site, not by you as a reader.
Affiliate commissions do not increase the cost of your account or any deposits you make. You will not pay any additional fees or charges as a result of clicking our affiliate links.
Kathwalker Illustration participates in affiliate programmes with various UK-licensed gambling operators and affiliate networks. These programmes allow us to generate revenue that supports the ongoing maintenance, research, and development of our website.
Our reviews and recommendations are completely independent and unbiased. James Wilson, the author and owner of Kathwalker Illustration, maintains strict editorial standards that are not influenced by affiliate commissions or financial relationships with gambling operators.
The presence of affiliate links does not determine which casinos we review, how we rate them, or whether we recommend them to our readers. Our review methodology is based on objective criteria including:
We review operators regardless of affiliate programme availability. If an operator does not meet our standards, we will state this clearly, even if we have an affiliate relationship with them. Conversely, we recommend operators based on merit, and affiliate commissions are a secondary consideration only.
James Wilson has extensive experience in the online gambling industry and maintains a commitment to providing accurate, helpful information to UK readers. All reviews are based on independent testing, research, and analysis. We do not accept payment from operators for positive reviews or inflated ratings.
Our reputation depends on the trustworthiness and accuracy of our content. Misleading readers would ultimately damage our credibility and business. Therefore, we prioritise honest evaluation above short-term commission gains.
Affiliate links are clearly marked where they appear on Kathwalker Illustration. You will see labels such as "Affiliate Link" or similar indicators to make the relationship transparent. We recommend reading this disclosure page to understand how our business model works.
This affiliate disclosure complies with the requirements of the UK Advertising Standards Authority (ASA), the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) guidelines, and the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) standards for disclosing material connections.
