How We Review

The Cryptoffiliate Score is an editorial rating on a 1–5 scale, assigned by our research team. For products, it weighs fee structure, security track record, feature depth, regulatory standing, and reputation. For affiliate programs, it weighs commission competitiveness, cookie duration, payout reliability, minimum payout thresholds, and program restrictions. It is a research judgment, built from publicly available data and program documentation, meant to save you the time of digging through terms pages yourself.

• It is not a guarantee of earnings, approval, or program performance.
• It is not influenced by whether a product or program pays us a commission.
• It is not a substitute for reading a program's actual terms before you apply.
• It is not financial, investment, tax, or legal advice.

The Cryptoffiliate Score and user reviews are shown separately and never blended into one number. The score is our editorial judgment, set by our research process. User reviews are unmoderated opinions from site visitors, published after a lightweight moderation pass to filter spam. A product can carry a strong editorial score with few or no user reviews yet, especially for newer or lower-traffic listings, and that gap is shown honestly rather than papered over.

Commission rates, cookie durations, payout thresholds, payment methods, and restrictions are sourced from each program's official affiliate or partner page, partner network listings, or direct outreach to the program. Terms change without notice on the program's side, so every listing shows a last-verified date and, where available, a link to the program's official terms so you can confirm current details before applying.

We do not run hidden or disguised sponsored listings. If a placement is paid, it is visibly labeled “Sponsored” or “Featured Partner” on the page where it appears, and outbound links to sponsored programs carry a sponsored link attribute for search engines. Sponsorship purchases visibility and placement context, never a specific score or rank.

We earn commissions when readers sign up through some of our links, disclosed on every listing and in our affiliate disclosure. Commission size and program relationship have no input into the score a product or program receives. Two programs with identical terms and identical commission structures are scored the same way regardless of which one pays us more, and a program with no affiliate relationship to us at all can still outrank one that does, if its terms are better.
