Affiliate Disclosure
Transparency about our betting operator partnerships and how we maintain editorial independence while earning commissions.
Gambling involves significant financial risk. Our affiliate relationships do not influence our predictions or analysis. We provide AI-generated predictions for informational purposes only. You must be 18+ to use betting sites. Please gamble responsibly. Visit BeGambleAware.org for support.
1. Our Affiliate Partnerships
What Is Affiliate Marketing?
FootyForecast participates in affiliate marketing programs with licensed betting operators. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and sign up with or deposit at a betting operator, we may receive a commission at no additional cost to you.
Why We Have Affiliates
Running a Multi-LLM prediction platform requires significant resources. Our affiliate partnerships help fund:
- API access to multiple Large Language Models (ChatGPT, Kimi, Claude, Gemini)
- Deep research capabilities and real-time data harvesting
- Monte Carlo simulation infrastructure
- Historical database maintenance (250,000+ matches)
- Website hosting, security, and development
Our Commitment to Transparency
We believe in complete transparency. This page discloses all our affiliate relationships, how we earn commissions, and how we maintain editorial independence. We are legally required to disclose these relationships under UK advertising regulations and the Consumer Rights Act 2015.
2. How Affiliate Commissions Work
Revenue Share Model
Most of our affiliate partnerships operate on a revenue share basis. This means we receive a percentage of the net revenue generated by players we refer, typically ranging from:
This is calculated based on the operator’s net gaming revenue from referred players, not from your losses directly. The percentage varies by operator and may be tiered based on performance metrics.
Cost Per Acquisition (CPA)
Some partnerships may use a CPA model where we receive a fixed fee when a referred user makes their first deposit or meets certain activity thresholds.
Hybrid Models
Certain affiliates may combine both revenue share and CPA elements depending on the agreement structure.
No Cost to You
Importantly, our affiliate commissions are paid by the betting operators, not by you. You will never pay more for using our links. In fact, we often negotiate exclusive welcome offers for FootyForecast users that provide better value than standard promotions.
3. Editorial Independence
Our Promise
We maintain strict editorial independence. Our AI predictions, analysis, and content are never influenced by our affiliate relationships. Specifically:
- No operator influence on predictions – Our Multi-LLM ensemble generates predictions based solely on data analysis, not affiliate partnerships
- No preferential treatment – We don’t favor one operator’s odds over another based on commission rates
- Honest assessments – We highlight both strengths and weaknesses of operators we partner with
- Value-first approach – We only recommend operators when they offer genuine value to users
How We Maintain Independence
Our editorial team operates separately from our commercial team. Content creators do not have access to affiliate performance data that could bias their work. Our AI models have no knowledge of affiliate relationships – they simply analyze match data and probabilities.
Operator Selection Criteria
We only partner with operators who meet our strict standards:
- Licensed by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC)
- Strong reputation for fair play and timely payouts
- Competitive odds and genuine value for customers
- Robust responsible gambling tools and policies
- Transparent terms and conditions
