How we work, from the list to the date at the foot of the page

Every page on this site rests on a small number of public sources, read on a stated date, and on a few rules that decide what is printed and what is left out. This page describes them in the order in which a reader meets them, from the operator cards to the date at the foot of each page.

The sources

The list of registered sites kept by the Alberta iGaming Corporation is the source of every operator name on this site, and it is "read by hand" (the last reading was on November 12, 2026, when it held fifty-one sites). The law comes from the documents themselves: the Criminal Code, the "iGaming Alberta Act", AGLC's "Standards and Requirements for Internet Gaming" with its updates (January, March and June 2026), and the bulletins that AGLC and AiGC publish with a date.

Where a figure comes from a "law firm" or a "trade publication" (an operator's fees, for instance), the page says so and calls it indicative. A claim without a document behind it did not go in!

How an operator card is built

Each card carries the row of the list where the site appears, the company that the list names against it, the address of the registered site and the date of the reading, so that you can repeat the check in a minute. The age shown is the operator's own (eighteen for most, nineteen where the operator asks for it), and a registered site whose "programme" offers no link for Alberta appears with its information and without a button, until the programme provides one.

Cards follow the company and then the name, never the commission we earn, and they carry no offer, since AGLC's standards keep "inducements" off affiliate pages. A review then reads the list line by line and explains the company that stands behind the brand; it ends with a section on what could not be checked, often the most useful part of the page.

Public review averages

No account has been opened at the operators, which is why no review carries a score of ours. Where a review shows an average from a "public review site", the box names the site, gives the number of reviews behind the figure and the date it was read, and explains what such an average tends to measure (complaints about withdrawals and support, mostly, since satisfied players rarely write).

Those averages are attributed and never restyled as ours, and the "structured data" on the pages declares no review rating at all; a number that this site did not produce is shown as someone else's, with its source, or not shown.

The games, played in demo

Seven games were played on November 12, 2026 in the free "practice versions" published by their providers, and every figure on their pages is the one that the rules screen printed that day, with screenshots taken during the session and kept with the page. The sessions were short, because our purpose was to read the screens (the page on playing in demo explains why a demo cannot measure a return).

Dates, updates and corrections

Each page shows the date when it was last updated, and the same date appears in the page's structured data and in the "sitemap", so that a reader and a search engine see one date rather than three different ones. When a source changes (a new row on the list, a bulletin, a rule in the standards), the pages that depend on it are rewritten and dated again.

A reported mistake is corrected and the correction dated. The address is on the contact page, and if you write with the page and the sentence, the change will usually appear in the next update of the site.

What we never do

We never print a bonus amount, never publish ratings or "testimonials", never accept payment for a review or for a place in a list, and never name an operator on the pages about scams, responsible gambling or the site itself (this one included). Those pages are open to readers in every country, and they would not stay useful to all of them (or lawful in some) if they carried commercial links.
