Editorial Policy

What we publish

HandsOnBet publishes football and basketball journalism: news, transfer coverage, club season previews, tactical analysis and player profiles, alongside explanatory guides about betting markets, odds and bookmakers.

Bylines and accountability

Every article carries a named author. Author pages list everything that writer has published, so their work can be judged as a body rather than one piece at a time. We do not publish editorial content anonymously.

How we research

Analysis pieces set out their reasoning, so a reader can disagree with the argument rather than take the conclusion on trust. Where we cite a statistic we say where it came from and over what period.

Figures we do not publish

We publish no win rate, profit figure or accuracy percentage. Such numbers cannot be verified by a reader and are routinely invented across this industry. Any figure of that kind attributed to HandsOnBet did not come from us.

Betting coverage

We write about betting because our readers bet. That means explaining how markets are priced, where the house edge sits and what a market actually pays. It does not mean promising outcomes. We do not sell predictions and we do not guarantee results.

Commercial content

Sponsored articles are labelled as sponsored, every time. A commercial relationship does not change a review rating, reorder a comparison table or soften a criticism. Advertising is sold against audience, never against editorial verdicts. Our advertising page sets out what we will and will not accept.

Affiliate links

Some links to bookmakers earn us a commission if a reader signs up. This never determines whether an operator is included, how it is rated, or what a review says about it.

Corrections

Mistakes are corrected openly. See our corrections policy.
