How we verify welcome offers

Our verification methodology

• We confirm the welcome offer is live. We check that the bonus is currently active on the broker's own official page, not only on third-party listings that may be out of date.
• We confirm the reward. We match the reward amount and any tier thresholds against the broker's current published terms.
• We confirm the code works. We check that the promo code or signup link resolves and applies the welcome offer as described.
• We confirm how the platform is regulated. We note the regulator and the regions where the welcome offer is available, so you know who oversees the platform.

How often we re-check

We re-verify every listed welcome offer at least once a week. We confirm the codes are still operational and update or remove anything that has changed.

When we remove a platform

We take platforms down when something is wrong. If credible information comes to light that a platform is acting against the interests of its users, we quickly remove the listing rather than keep earning from it.

Who reviews our welcome offers

Every listing on KindredBase is reviewed by a named member of our team before it goes live. You can read more about who we are on our about page.

How this differs from our ratings

This page covers how we confirm a welcome offer is real and current. It does not cover how we score and rate the platforms themselves. For the criteria behind our star ratings, how we make money, and what we never accept, see our review methodology.
