Affiliate Disclosure

Last Updated: January 2026

Welcome to Maarof (maarof.com). This page explains our affiliate relationships and how they work. We believe transparency is essential to maintaining your trust, so we want to be completely clear about our business model and how it affects the content you read on our site.

What This Disclosure Covers

Maarof is an independent review and recommendation website dedicated to providing comprehensive information about online betting sites and casinos operating in the Egyptian market. This disclosure explains how we generate revenue, what affiliate links are, and how our business relationships do not compromise our editorial integrity.

Affiliate Relationships and Commission Structure

Maarof earns commissions when you click on operator links featured throughout our website and subsequently sign up for an account with a betting platform or casino. These commissions are paid by the operators themselves—not by users. Your costs remain the same whether you arrive through our links or visit directly.

Here's how it works:

• You click on a link to a betting operator from our reviews or recommendations
• You create an account and may deposit funds to play
• The operator pays Maarof a referral commission based on our affiliate agreement
• This commission has no impact on your experience, account terms, or available promotions

These affiliate commissions are our primary revenue source and allow us to maintain Maarof as a free resource for Egyptian bettors and casino players.

Editorial Independence and Objectivity

Despite receiving commissions from operators we review, our editorial standards remain completely independent. James Wilson, founder and lead reviewer at Maarof, maintains strict objectivity in all assessments. Our affiliate relationships do not influence which operators we review, what we say about them, or our ratings and recommendations.

Key commitments to you:

• We review operators based on merit, not commission potential
• We include operators we do not have affiliate relationships with
• We disclose affiliate partnerships transparently on every relevant page
• Negative reviews are published when an operator fails to meet our standards, regardless of affiliate status
• James Wilson's expert assessment is never compromised by financial incentives

Our Review Methodology

Every review published on Maarof follows a rigorous, standardized evaluation process developed through years of industry expertise. Our methodology assesses:

• Licensing and Regulation: Verification of proper Egyptian and international licensing
• Security and Safety: SSL encryption, data protection, and responsible gambling features
• Game Selection and Quality: Software providers, game variety, and fair play standards
• Payment Methods: Deposit and withdrawal options, speed, and fees
• Customer Support: Availability, responsiveness, and helpfulness
• Bonus Offers: Terms, wagering requirements, and value proposition
• User Experience: Website design, mobile compatibility, and navigation

This objective framework ensures consistency and removes subjective bias from our assessments.

Expertise and Authority

James Wilson brings over 15 years of experience in the online gambling industry to every review. His background includes direct experience with casino operations, regulatory compliance, and player protection standards. This expertise enables Maarof to deliver informed, nuanced assessments that benefit both novice and experienced bettors in Egypt.

Our authority comes from knowledge, not from affiliate commissions.

What Affiliate Links Look Like

Affiliate links appear throughout our site, including in review pages, comparison tables, and recommendation sections. These links will typically be clearly labeled or visually distinct. When you see "Visit Operator," "Claim Bonus," or "Sign Up Now" buttons or links, you can assume they are affiliate links. We may also disclose specific affiliate relationships in the text of our reviews.
