Editorial Policy

fortunemouse.best is an editorial review platform. These guidelines transparently document how our testing procedures work, how ratings are developed, how corrections are handled, and how we manage affiliate relationships. We view them as a commitment to our readers.

Editorial Approach

We review online games and casinos. Our reporting prioritizes useful information over marketing aesthetics, concrete data over vague claims, and methodological rigor over marketing rhetoric. We identify and disclose shortcomings.

Our Team

All reviews are conducted by a fixed editorial team with combined 14+ years of professional experience in iGaming. Each review is signed and includes verifiable author biography. We do not use contract writers, AI-generated content without editorial review, or sponsored content.

Casino Testing Procedure

Each casino recommended on fortunemouse.best goes through the following verification steps:

  1. License Verification The stated license number is verified with the issuing regulator (Malta Gaming Authority, Curaçao eGaming, Anjouan Gaming Authority, and others).
  2. Real-Money Account Registration We create an account including full KYC verification; processing time is recorded.
  3. Deposit A minimum of $100 deposited through at least two different payment methods.
  4. Game Testing At least 200 rounds of Fortune Mouse played under various testing conditions.
  5. Withdrawal Testing At least three withdrawals in different amounts via different payment methods.
  6. Customer Support Test Inquiries via live chat and email with documented response time and answer quality.

A casino is only listed after successfully completing all steps. Listings are reviewed at least semiannually and corrected or removed if needed.

Rating System

Casino and game reviews follow a structured 47-point audit, weighted as follows to produce an overall score:

  • Withdrawal Speed: 25%
  • License Transparency: 20%
  • Bonus Fairness (Wagering, Game Weighting, Max-Bet Clauses): 20%
  • Customer Service: 15%
  • Game Selection: 10%
  • App and Usability: 10%

The resulting score from 0-100 is mapped to a 5-star scale. Providers scoring below 70 points are not included in our recommended list.

Affiliate Transparency

Some of our revenue comes from affiliate commissions. When a user clicks one of our recommendation links and deposits with the recommended provider, we receive a one-time or revenue-share commission. This commission does not influence whether a casino is listed or its placement order.

  • Casinos do not pay for listing or favorable placement.
  • Ranking is based solely on the 47-point audit.
  • Providers with higher commission rates receive no preferential treatment.
  • Affiliate relationships are disclosed in the footer and, when relevant, inline.

Fact-Checking

Numerical claims in our content are verified before publication:

  • RTP Values: from official documentation by the game developer, cross-checked against iTech Labs or eCOGRA certificates.
  • Bonus Terms: drawn from the terms of service of each casino at the time of publication. Since providers can change terms quickly, we recommend verification before depositing.
  • License Data: verified with the issuing regulator.

Corrections and Updates

If a claim proves inaccurate, we correct the article promptly. Significant content changes are noted with an update notice at the article footer. Factual errors are corrected, not quietly removed. Feedback to our editorial team can be sent to: [email protected].

Responsible Gaming Stance

Gambling is entertainment, not a business model. This principle is reflected in our content: we avoid 'get rich' rhetoric, highlight addiction risks, and provide links to support resources in every article and our footer. For help: Gambling Therapy offers free, confidential online support 24/7.

What We Don't Do

  • No 'guaranteed strategies' that ignore mathematical expectation principles.
  • No promotion of unlicensed casinos or so-called 'predictor' apps.
  • No promotion codes we've verified as non-functional.
  • No paid content without clear disclosure.
  • No test ratings without actual testing.

Methodological Updates

These guidelines are reviewed annually and updated to reflect market developments, regulatory changes, and our own methodological improvements. The current version is available on this page.
