Affiliate Disclosure: How Game Chaska Earns a Commission and Keeps Reviews Independent

This affiliate disclosure explains, in plain words, how Game Chaska earns money and why that never changes what we write. Honesty matters to us, and you should always know when a link on our site may bring us a reward.

Please read it once, and you will understand exactly how things work.

The Short Version

Some of the links on Game Chaska are affiliate links. If you use one of these links and take part in a game, we may receive a commission from the game’s operator or partner. Our reviews, ratings and the way we treat complaints stay independent of this.

What Is an Affiliate Link?

An affiliate link is a special link that tells a game’s operator that a visitor came from our website. If that visitor later takes part in the game, the operator may pay a commission to the website that sent them. This is a very common way for review and directory websites to earn money while offering their content to readers.

Where You May See Affiliate Links

The Play Now buttons on our game cards and game pages can be affiliate links. Other links to games or apps inside our reviews and guides may also be affiliate links. When a link is of this kind, it is marked in a way that search engines understand, so everyone can see that it is connected to a commission.

How Game Chaska Earns Money

Game Chaska is a free place to read and compare games. Our income comes from commissions that may be paid when readers use our links. This income helps us cover the costs of running the site, writing reviews, updating pages and keeping our help guides current.

How This Affects Our Reviews

A commission does not change a game’s rating. We write our reviews independently and give each game a score out of 5. We include the positive points and the points that may not suit everyone, so you can decide for yourself.

You can read how ratings and votes work in our Ratings and Reviews guide. Player votes are counted too, so the score is never shaped by us alone.

Our Promises to You

We promise to keep our reviews honest, friendly and easy to understand. We promise to read every concern that players send us through the Complaints section, and if a complaint is valid, we can take action, including reporting the game and removing it from our site. We also promise to remind you to play sensibly, because your wellbeing matters more than any commission.

Your Choice Matters

You are never required to use our links. If you prefer, you can search for a game by name yourself. Using our links is a simple way to support Game Chaska, and we are grateful when you do, but the choice is always yours.

If a game involves real money, please read our Playing Responsibly guide first and set your limits before you start. New to the site? Start with Getting Started.
