GamblingSites.com Relaunches with Revolutionizing Jackpot Meter

GamblingSites.com is excited to launch the Jackpot Meter, a tool that sets a new standard for online casino/sportsbook reviews. Taking into account more than 24,000 comments by players and industry experts, the system provides clear scores for each reviewed site.

The result is that more than 120 reviews on our site now have clearer insights based on key features like bonuses, banking options, game offers, and more.

So, what is the Jackpot Meter and why does it matter? Read on to find out.

The Jackpot Meter Explained

The Jackpot Meter is a proprietary tool we created to bring transparent reviews to our readers, evaluating key features along the way. This model for ranking gambling sites uses expert reviews, as well as player feedback as the source of information.

The tool analyzes reviewers’ opinions, weighing positives and negatives equally. Once the jackpot Meter does its magic, it puts the site into one of the following categories: 

• The Jackpot Certified – This is the top mark a site can get from us. It signifies a top-rated online sportsbook or casino, which is trusted by both industry experts and independent players. Only sites with a 60%+ satisfaction rating from both of these groups get this badge.
• All In Jackpot Certified – This is the highest honor a gambling site can earn from GamblingSites.com-approved experts. To achieve this status, a site must maintain an expert rating of 85% or higher, ensuring it meets the highest standards.
• Bust – Gambling sites with this rating fail to meet industry standards. Sites with an average rating of 59% or lower (from both experts and players) are considered a Bust. This is a clear indication that they’re not good enough for our readers.

The scores are represented by symbols, making it easy to spot top sites and avoid risky ones. Expert Jackpot Certified sites are represented by diamonds, symbols universally associated with value and luxury. Bust sites come with a symbol of a broken diamond.

When it comes to player scores, The Jackpot Certified and Bust icons for player scores are represented by emojis with facial expressions – a smiley and a sad face.

A Need for Online Review Transparency

The online gambling industry is one often driven by aggressive marketing, with pretty much all sites claiming they’re the best. Experience has taught us that it’s often just the opposite. Misleading (or even paid) reviews can create a completely distorted picture of a site.

Whether it’s bonuses with hard-to-clear wagering requirements, games with low RTP, or high payout fees, sketchy site reviews can result in serious problems for the users.

That’s actually what inspired us to come up with the Jackpot Meter, which provides a truly unbiased approach. We will still review online casinos and sportsbooks and offer our expert opinion, but our site ratings won’t just factor in our opinion.

The goal of the Jackpot Meter is to eliminate bias, offer context, and to restore trust. Thanks to this new tool, you can feel confident every review you read on our site is giving you all the information you need to make the best decision for yourself.
