Ekpark (ekpark.co.uk) is a free resource for players in Leeds and across Great Britain who want honest, up-to-date casino reviews and recommendations. To keep this site running at no charge to you, we sometimes earn a commission when you click a link to one of the casinos we review and go on to register or play. This is called affiliate marketing. Importantly, it never costs you a single penny more — any commission comes from the operator, not from your pocket.
What Affiliate Links Are
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL that tells an operator's system that a visitor arrived via ekpark.co.uk. If you click one of these links and then sign up or make a deposit, the casino operator pays us a small referral fee. The link works exactly like any ordinary web link — it takes you straight to the casino's own website, and the terms and conditions, welcome offers, and pricing you see there are identical to what any other player would see. There is no hidden markup, no inflated fees, and no data shared beyond what is needed to confirm the referral took place.
How We Earn
The table below breaks down the most common ways ekpark.co.uk can earn a commission, so you know exactly what triggers a payment and who pays it.
| Action | Who Pays | Cost to You |
|---|---|---|
| You click a review link on ekpark.co.uk | No payment at this stage | None — £0 |
| You register a new account with the operator | The casino operator | None — £0 |
| You make a qualifying deposit and play | The casino operator (from house revenue) | None — £0 |
| You claim a welcome bonus through our link | The casino operator | None — £0 |
In every case the operator absorbs the cost. You receive exactly the same deal you would get by going directly to the casino's website.
How This Affects Our Reviews
The short answer is: it does not. Ekpark operates with full editorial independence. Our rankings are not for sale, and no casino can pay to appear higher in our recommendations. We have turned down operators who failed our checks, even when an affiliate agreement was already in place. If we have a commercial relationship with a casino we review, we note it where relevant — but the score, verdict, and written content are determined entirely by our assessment criteria. A casino that pays us a higher commission rate does not get a better review. A casino that pays us nothing but genuinely serves Leeds players well will still be featured and rated fairly.
Our Review Methodology
Every casino reviewed on ekpark.co.uk is assessed against a consistent set of criteria before any recommendation is made:

- Game selection — range, software providers, and quality of slots and table games
- Payment methods — deposit and withdrawal options, processing times, and fees

- Responsible gambling tools — deposit limits, self-exclusion, and GamStop integration
FTC & Regulatory Compliance
In accordance with the Federal Trade Commission's guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, and consistent with good practice for UK-facing consumer websites, ekpark.co.uk discloses that material connections exist between this site and certain casino operators. Where we receive compensation for a referral, that fact is disclosed on this page and, where appropriate, within relevant review content. Our goal is full transparency so that you can make an informed decision about any recommendation you read here.
Your Choice
You are under no obligation to use our links. Every casino we review can be found by searching directly, and you are always welcome to visit an operator's website without clicking through ekpark.co.uk. We encourage you to do your own research alongside ours. Our affiliate relationships help us keep this resource free, but your trust matters more than any commission.
