Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
Welcome to valentinbrown.com, a website dedicated to reviewing sports betting apps and online casino platforms available to players in Canada. Before you read our reviews or click any links, we want to be fully transparent about how this website earns revenue.
We Earn Affiliate Commissions
valentinbrown.com participates in affiliate marketing programs with online sportsbooks and casino operators. This means that when you click on certain links on this website and subsequently register an account, deposit funds, or place a wager with one of our partner operators, we may receive a commission — at no additional cost to you. The operator pays this commission from its own marketing budget; it is never added to your deposits, bets, or withdrawals.
These commissions are how we fund the research, testing, and content production that keeps this site free to use.
Commissions Do Not Influence Our Rankings
Our editorial integrity is not for sale. The rankings, ratings, and reviews published on valentinbrown.com are based on our own testing and evaluation criteria, including licensing and security, odds quality, app performance, payment speed, customer support, and responsible gambling tools. Operators cannot pay for a higher ranking, a more favourable review, or the removal of criticism. Where an operator offers us a higher commission rate, this has no bearing on where — or whether — that operator appears in our recommendations.
How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We believe you should always know when a link may earn us money:
- Links to sportsbooks and casinos that may generate a commission are typically presented as buttons, "Visit Site" calls-to-action, or operator brand links within our reviews and comparison tables.
- Where a placement is sponsored or an operator has paid for prominent positioning, it will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored" or "Ad".
- Affiliate links may use tracking parameters so the operator knows you arrived via our site.
If you are ever unsure whether a link is an affiliate link, assume that links pointing to sportsbooks or casino operators on this website may be.
Canadian Advertising Compliance
This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Competition Act (Canada), which prohibits deceptive marketing practices, and with the Canadian Code of Advertising Standards administered by Ad Standards Canada, which requires that material connections between advertisers and content publishers be clearly disclosed. We are committed to ensuring that our content does not mislead readers about our commercial relationships.
Please also note that online gambling is regulated provincially in Canada. We only feature operators we believe to be licensed or legally accessible in the relevant province (for example, operators registered with the AGCO/iGaming Ontario for Ontario residents). It is your responsibility to verify that an operator is authorized in your province before registering.
Your Responsibility as a Reader
Our content is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, or gambling advice. By using this website, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You are solely responsible for verifying that online gambling is legal in your province or territory and that you meet the minimum age requirement (19+ in most provinces; 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec).
- Any decision to register with or wager at an operator linked from this site is made entirely at your own discretion and risk.
- Offers, bonuses, and terms displayed on this site may change; always confirm the current terms directly on the operator's website before signing up.
- Gambling involves real risk of loss. Only wager what you can afford to lose, and seek help if gambling stops being fun (e.g., ConnexOntario at 1-866-531-2600, or your provincial problem gambling helpline).
