Editorial policy
The short version. Every commercial claim carries the method behind it. Unverified never gets rounded up to verified. Dates only move when something is actually re-checked.
Principles
Six rules the desk keeps to, so nothing on the site quietly drifts into marketing while nobody is looking.
- One source of truth. The code, destination, rate and how we labelled each claim live in one data file that every page reads from.
- Method with every claim. A reader can see how each statement was established, and when.
- Absence of evidence is published as absence of evidence, never as reassurance.
- The operator's own words are quoted and dated rather than paraphrased into something stronger.
- The commercial relationship is stated near the first call to action, not buried in a footer.
- The code is always visible. No reveal clicks, no interstitials, no cloaked redirects.
How we mark what we know
No single “verified” badge. That word would collapse eight genuinely different situations into one reassuring blur, and the blur is exactly what we opened up shop to avoid.
- Supplied by partner
- Information given to us by the publisher or the partner, not independently checked.
- Link checked
- We requested the destination and recorded what it resolved to.
- Operator documented
- Supported by a current Moon.com source, quoted and dated.
- Affiliate confirmed
- Moon or the affiliate platform confirmed this in writing.
- Account tested
- Observed first-hand in an account and recorded as evidence.
- Changed
- Previously published information is no longer current.
- Expired
- The code or benefit no longer applies.
- Not tested
- No current first-hand test. We are not claiming it either way.
The last three are not good news, and they never get dressed up as good news. If a stamp says something has not been tested, nobody tested it. That is the entire message.
What counts as a source
- Moon.com's Terms of Service and Help Centre, quoted with the date checked.
- Written confirmation from the operator or the affiliate platform, described and dated.
- First-hand observation in an account, with a redacted capture published as evidence.
- A logged request to the referral destination, recording what it resolved to.
And what does not:
- Competitor code pages and affiliate aggregators. They are not factual authority here.
- Forum posts, social media claims and screenshots of unknown origin.
- Marketing material that cannot be traced to an operator page or a dated confirmation.
- Anything a language model asserts without a checkable source behind it.
Claims we will not make
Ruled out as a matter of policy, whether or not they would convert better.
- That the code guarantees activation on your account.
- That rakeback is cashback on losses, or a percentage of deposits, wagers or exposure.
- That there is no minimum deposit, no wagering requirement, no cap or no expiry.
- That anything applies retroactively to activity before the referral was recorded.
- Any withdrawal timing, processing speed or payout guarantee.
- That the platform is legal, safe or approved in any particular country.
- That identity verification can be skipped, or that use is anonymous.
- That leveraged wagering can be risk-free, or that it is an investment or trading product.
How dates work
A last-reviewed date moves only after a material editorial review. A re-checked claim, a re-read source, a rate change, an eligibility statement that shifted. Deploys, design tweaks and copy tidying do not move it, and no automated job bumps it either.
What changed, and when, sits in the verification log, including changes that make the offer look worse.
Corrections
Found a change in the code, terms, fee schedule or country list? Send the source and the date you saw it to editorial@moonpromocodes.global. Confirmed corrections are logged publicly.
Confirmed corrections are made and logged publicly with the date. If a correction materially changes what the offer is worth, the change record says so in plain terms, not as a silent edit.
