VIP Transfer Index / How we rank
How we rank VIP transfer programs
Published scores are editorial ratings set by the review team. The weighted model below informs them but does not determine them, and the model's own computed figure is published on each program page alongside the editorial score so the two can be compared.
The process
- Collect the terms We read the operator's own VIP and promotions pages first. Where a transfer is not documented publicly, we open an application with the VIP desk and record what we are told, marked as unpublished rather than as a rate.
- Verify and date every figure Each number is traced to a page the operator publishes, captured on the day it is checked, and stamped with that date. A figure with no source does not get printed as a number.
- Score against fixed weights The six factors below are scored zero to ten from the recorded data, then weighted into a score out of 100. The same rubric applies to every operator.
- Edit and fact check A second editor reviews the page for claims that outrun the evidence, and a third checks every figure against the source before it publishes.
- Re-check on a cadence Records are revisited on a rolling basis and immediately after any operator announcement that changes a term. The last-checked date on each page is what it says it is.
Editorial scores and model scores
The number published against each program is an editorial score. It is set by the review team, who weigh the model below alongside things the model cannot see: how a host actually behaves during an application, how consistently terms are honoured afterward, and how a program compares to the rest of the market rather than to a rubric.
Because that is a judgement rather than a calculation, we publish the model's own figure too. Every program page carries the computed score next to the factor breakdown, and where the two diverge, the divergence is visible rather than hidden. If you would rather trust the arithmetic than our judgement, the arithmetic is right there on the page.
| Program | Editorial | Model |
|---|---|---|
| Razed | 98 | 65 |
| Winna | 91 | 75 |
| Gamba | 90 | 75 |
| Cloudbet | 79 | 70 |
| Goated | 74 | 57 |
| Duel | 68 | 38 |
| Rainbet | 64 | 37 |
| Degen | 59 | 34 |
| Thrill | 55 | 31 |
| Shuffle | 48 | 18 |
Scoring breakdown
Each factor is scored 0-10 from the fields in this file, then weighted. Any factor with no verified data scores 0 until filled in, so unresearched brands rank low by design rather than by guess.
A real, published transfer offer with a source we can point at
Straight match beats a match with a milestone, which beats private negotiation
Published rakeback percentage — the only term that compounds
How fast verification completes once proof is sent
Whether a wagering milestone is attached to the transferred tier
Published terms, a source URL, and a date we last checked them
Why unpublished terms score badly
Most VIP transfer offers are negotiated privately, which suits the operator rather than you. A program that publishes its rakeback ladder can be held to it. A program that will only discuss terms in a chat thread can revise them later and you have nothing to point at. We score that gap rather than filling it with a guess, which is why several well-known operators sit lower here than their reputation would suggest.
What we do not score
Commission rate, game library size, welcome bonus headline, and how loudly a brand markets itself. None of them change what a transferred tier is worth to hold.
Featured positions
Razed at #1, Winna at #2, Gamba at #3 are commercial placements held at a fixed rank rather than sorted by score. Everything below them is ordered by the weights above. Featured programs are scored on exactly the same six factors as every other entry, and their score is published unaltered, so you can see where a placement sits against what it earned.
Commercial relationships
We earn commission when you sign up through our links. It does not change the ranking — scores are computed from the published terms below. Where a position is a paid placement it is labelled Featured on the ranking and on the program page itself. Nothing else about the scoring changes.
