Affiliate Disclosure

Full transparency about how we earn money and how it affects our content.

In short: Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you sign up for a service through one of our links, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This helps us keep the site running and the community free. Our reviews and recommendations are honest regardless of affiliate relationships.

How We Make Money

Online Sidehustles earns revenue through the following methods:

Affiliate Commissions

When you sign up for a sweepstakes casino, tool, or service through a link on our site, we may receive a commission from that company. This is called an "affiliate" or "referral" relationship. Common affiliate partnerships include:

Sweepstakes casino sign-up links (bounty-based commissions)
Software tools and browser extensions we recommend
Financial services (credit cards, brokerages)
Reward apps and cashback platforms

Referral Codes

Some platforms offer referral bonus programs where both you and we benefit. When we share a referral link (like our Greenseed partnership), you typically get access to the service and we earn a referral reward.

What This Means for You

No extra cost — You never pay more by using our links. In many cases, our links give you a better deal (bonus codes, welcome offers) than signing up directly.
Honest reviews — We review sites we've actually used. If a site is bad, we say so — even if they offer us affiliate commissions. We've turned down partnerships with sites we don't trust.
Clear labeling — Pages with affiliate links typically note this. If you see a sign-up link or referral code, assume it's an affiliate link.

How We Choose What to Recommend

Our review process doesn't change based on affiliate relationships. We evaluate platforms based on:

Daily bonus value and consistency
Welcome package quality
Payout speed and reliability
Game selection and RTP
User experience and mobile support
Community feedback and real user experiences
KYC process and customer support quality

We recommend sites that our community actually uses and earns from. If a high-paying affiliate site has poor payouts or shady practices, it doesn't make our list.

Sites We Don't Earn From

Not every link on our site is an affiliate link. Many of the 87+ sites in our daily collection guide don't have affiliate programs at all — we include them because they're genuinely worth using.

FTC Compliance

This disclosure is provided in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials. We believe in full transparency about our business relationships.
