Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
At orcacentre.ca, transparency and trust are at the core of everything we do. This page explains how our website earns revenue and what that means for you, our reader.
1. How We Make Money
OrcaCentre.ca is an affiliate website that reviews and compares the highest payout online casinos available to Canadian players. When you click on certain links on this site and register an account, deposit funds, or otherwise engage with a casino operator, we may receive an affiliate commission from that operator. This comes at no additional cost to you — the commission is paid by the casino operator as part of a standard referral arrangement.
These commissions are what allow us to keep our content free, fund independent research and testing, and continue updating our reviews of Canada's best-paying online casinos.
2. Editorial Independence
We want to be absolutely clear: affiliate commissions do not influence our rankings, ratings, or reviews.
- Our casino rankings are based on payout rates (RTP), licensing, payment speed, game fairness, security, and player experience.
- Casinos cannot pay for a higher placement in our lists, and we do not accept payment in exchange for positive reviews.
- Where we find issues with an operator — slow payouts, unfair terms, or poor customer support — we report them, regardless of our commercial relationship.
- Our editorial team operates independently from our commercial partnerships.
3. How to Identify Affiliate Links
We believe you should always know when a link may earn us a commission. On this website, affiliate links are identified in the following ways:
- Buttons or links labeled with terms such as "Visit Casino," "Play Now," or "Claim Bonus" are affiliate links.
- Some links or sections may be marked with a tag such as "ad," "affiliate link," or "sponsored."
- As a general rule, assume that any outbound link to an online casino operator on this site may be an affiliate link.
4. Regulatory Compliance
OrcaCentre.ca is committed to full compliance with Canadian advertising and consumer protection requirements, including:
- The Competition Act (Canada) and guidance issued by the Competition Bureau of Canada regarding deceptive marketing practices and material connection disclosures.
- The Canadian Code of Advertising Standards, administered by Ad Standards (ASC), which requires that advertising content be clearly identifiable as such.
- Applicable provincial regulations governing the promotion of gaming services, including guidance from provincial regulators such as iGaming Ontario / the AGCO where relevant.
We clearly disclose our material connections with casino operators so that you can evaluate our content with full knowledge of how we are compensated.
5. Your Responsibility as a Reader
While we work hard to keep our information accurate and up to date, the online casino landscape changes quickly. By using this website, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You are responsible for verifying the current terms, conditions, bonus offers, and payout policies directly with any casino before registering or depositing.
- You must be of legal gambling age in your province or territory (19+ in most of Canada; 18+ in Alberta, Manitoba, and Quebec).
- Gambling involves risk, and you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
- Our reviews reflect our opinions and testing at the time of publication and do not constitute financial or legal advice.
