About ChainAces

ChainAces is an independent editorial desk covering crypto casinos for an English-speaking audience. This page explains who is behind the reviews, what we actually check before an operator goes on a list, and how the site is paid for.

What this site is for

What this site is for — About ChainAces

Most crypto casino lists are ranked by whoever pays the most, and the reader has no way to tell. We built ChainAces around a narrower, more useful question: if you deposit here today, how long until you can take money back out, and what has to happen first?

That is why every page on this site leads with the same four data points - withdrawal window, verification policy, wagering requirement and minimum deposit. They are the things that decide whether a casino is workable for you. Game counts and bonus headlines are easy to inflate and rarely the reason a session goes wrong.

How we work

We track a short list of operators rather than a long one. Five sites we have actually looked at in detail is more useful than fifty entries copied from a feed, and a short list is one we can keep current.

Operator terms change without announcement - wagering multipliers get raised, KYC thresholds get lowered, payout methods get dropped. We re-check the details on our pages on a rolling basis and date every page with the last review. If something on the site is out of date, the contact form is the fastest way to tell us, and we would rather hear it from a reader than leave it wrong.

Our scoring is set out in full on the how we rate page, including the weight each criterion carries.

How the site is funded

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you register through one and later play, the operator may pay us a commission. You pay nothing extra, and the bonus you receive is the same as it would be going direct.

What that arrangement does not buy is a position. Commission rates are not an input to our scoring, and we publish the drawbacks of every operator we list - the widest payout window in the group, the strictest verification, the smallest catalog. A page that only lists positives is advertising, and it is worth exactly what advertising is worth to a reader trying to make a decision.

We also do not sell guest posts, do not run paid "sponsored review" slots, and do not accept payment to remove criticism.

What we are not

We are not a casino, we do not take deposits or bets, and we do not run games. Nothing on this site is a guarantee of any outcome - every casino game carries a built-in house edge, and over time that edge wins.

We also do not give legal advice. Crypto casinos operate under offshore licenses and accept players from most places, but whether you may use one where you live is a question for your own rules, not ours. Gambling on this site's subject matter is for adults 18 and over. If play has stopped feeling optional, the responsible gambling page lists free, confidential help.

Frequently asked questions

Is ChainAces owned by a casino?

No. We are an independent publisher. We hold affiliate agreements with operators, which is disclosed on every page, but no operator owns, controls or edits this site.

Can an operator pay to be ranked higher?

No. Commission rates are not part of the scoring model described on our how we rate page, and we do not sell placement.

How often are the pages updated?

On a rolling basis. Operator terms change without notice, so we re-check payout windows, verification rules and wagering requirements and date each page with the last review.
