Hatfieldgpc (hatfieldgpc.co.uk) is a free, independent review site covering Merkur casino products and operators available to players in Great Britain. To keep this site running at no charge to you, we sometimes earn a commission when you click a link on our pages and go on to register or play at a recommended casino. This arrangement never adds any cost to you whatsoever — the price you see at the casino is exactly the same whether you arrive through hatfieldgpc.co.uk or type the address directly into your browser.
What Affiliate Links Are
An affiliate link is a specially tracked web address that tells an operator's system you came from a specific referring website — in this case, hatfieldgpc.co.uk. When you follow one of those links and complete a qualifying action (such as registering an account or making a deposit), the operator pays us a small referral fee. This is a standard and transparent practice used across the online publishing industry, and it is the primary way we fund our research, testing, and ongoing content updates.
Not every link on our site is an affiliate link. We sometimes reference operators, regulators, or support resources purely for informational purposes, with no commercial relationship attached.

How This Affects Our Reviews
The short answer: it does not. Rankings and editorial scores on hatfieldgpc.co.uk are never for sale. We do not accept payments, gifts, or preferential treatment in exchange for positive coverage. An operator that offers us a higher commission rate does not receive a higher rating as a result — and an operator with a lower commercial deal is assessed by exactly the same standards as any other.
If we identify a significant problem with a casino — unfair bonus terms, slow withdrawals, poor customer support — we report it plainly, regardless of any commercial relationship. Our long-term credibility with readers in Great Britain depends entirely on that honesty, and we take it seriously.
