MGA Reviews may generate income through affiliate commissions. When a reader follows a qualifying affiliate link and completes an action with the linked business, MGA Reviews may receive a commission.

Material commercial relationships and funding sources that could reasonably be relevant to our work will be disclosed appropriately.

Editorial independence

Editorial decisions are made by the editorial team in accordance with our Editorial Standards.

Advertisers, affiliate partners, sponsors and other commercial organisations cannot purchase favourable coverage or control our editorial conclusions.

A commercial relationship does not permit an organisation to alter regulatory information, purchase a favourable Licence Checker result or remove material information from our reporting or data products.

Sponsored content, paid placement and other commercially produced material will be clearly identified where applicable.

Product and data independence

Commercial relationships do not determine the regulatory statuses shown by our tools.

Operators and other commercial partners cannot pay to receive an active licence status, change an independently determined result or remove a material regulatory record.

Regulatory independence

MGA Reviews is not affiliated with, endorsed by or operated by the Malta Gaming Authority or any other gambling regulator.

The inclusion of a regulator, operator, supplier or other organisation in our reporting, databases or tools does not imply endorsement, approval or partnership.

Changes

We will update this disclosure if the project’s ownership, operator, funding model or material commercial relationships change.
