Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: January 1, 2026

Welcome to Phahmed (phahmed.ca). Before you use any of the recommendations, links, or reviews published on this website, please take a moment to read this disclosure carefully. Transparency is a core value here, and you deserve to know exactly how this site operates and how it generates revenue.

Our Relationship With Casino Operators

Phahmed participates in affiliate marketing programs offered by online casino operators and related services. This means that when you click on certain links published on phahmed.ca and subsequently register an account or make a deposit at a recommended casino, Phahmed may receive a commission or referral fee from that operator. These arrangements are commonly known as affiliate partnerships.

These commissions are paid directly by the casino operators and come at no additional cost to you. You will never pay more for a product or service because you arrived through a link on this website.

How Affiliate Links Work

Affiliate links look and function like ordinary hyperlinks. When you click one, a tracking cookie or a unique URL parameter identifies that the referral came from phahmed.ca. If you complete a qualifying action, such as registering or depositing at that casino, the operator records the referral and pays a commission accordingly. The following points summarize how the relationship works:

Affiliate links are embedded in casino reviews, comparison tables, and recommendation buttons across the site.
Commissions can be structured as revenue share, cost per acquisition (CPA), or a hybrid of both, depending on the operator agreement.
Not every link on phahmed.ca is an affiliate link. Some links point to regulatory bodies, responsible gambling resources, or informational third-party sources with no financial arrangement in place.
Commission rates and partner agreements vary by operator and are not publicly disclosed.

Editorial Independence and Unbiased Reviews

All casino reviews published on phahmed.ca are written by Marc Thibeault, the owner and sole author of this website. Marc maintains complete editorial independence from all affiliated operators. The existence of an affiliate relationship with a casino does not influence the rating, ranking, or content of that casino's review in any way.

Casinos are evaluated honestly. If a casino performs poorly in testing, that will be reflected in the review regardless of whether an affiliate agreement is in place. Phahmed has declined and terminated affiliate arrangements with operators that failed to meet the standards required for a recommendation to Canadian players.
