Trust Score API — License & Attribution Terms
The Bonus Bandit Trust Score dataset is published as free, open JSON so journalists, researchers, and analysts can cite it without scraping our pages. You may use it — these are the conditions.
GET /trust-score/api/scores.json # every scored operator (master dump) GET /trust-score/api/<slug>.json # one operator + its top ToS red flags
The master dump is here: /trust-score/api/scores.json. Both endpoints are CORS-open (Access-Control-Allow-Origin: *), so you can fetch them straight from a browser, a notebook, or a dashboard.
What you can do
- Pull the scores, bands, confidence values, and per-factor breakdowns into articles, reports, spreadsheets, dashboards, comparison tools, and academic work.
- Quote the verbatim Terms-of-Service flags on the per-operator endpoint, including their source page and section reference.
- Cache or mirror the JSON, provided your copy stays clearly attributed and you refresh it often enough that you are not publishing stale numbers as if they were current.
- Build derivative visualizations and rankings on top of the data, as long as it is clear those are your interpretation and not the original Bonus Bandit Trust Score.
What we ask in return (attribution)
Wherever you publish numbers derived from this API, credit Bonus Bandit and include a working link back to https://bonusbandit.win/trust-score/ (or to the specific operator's Trust Score page). A plain-text credit such as “Source: Bonus Bandit Trust Score (bonusbandit.win)” is fine for print or video; on the web, make the link clickable. If the score is the centerpiece of your piece — a chart, a table, a headline figure — the attribution should sit next to it, not buried in a footnote.
What you may not do
- Don't represent the data as your own scoring. The Trust Score is our methodology and our editorial work. Re-publishing it under a different brand as though you computed it is not allowed.
- Don't cherry-pick to mislead. Selectively publishing only the highest-scoring operators — or only the operators you have a commercial relationship with — to imply an endorsement the full dataset doesn't support misrepresents the score. If you publish a subset, say it's a subset and link to the full list.
- Don't imply Bonus Bandit endorses you, your site, or any operator because a score is high. The score measures one thing — whether players actually get paid — and carries zero affiliate weighting.
- Don't alter the numbers and continue to call them Trust Scores. If you transform the data, label it as your own derived metric.
How the scores are produced
Every operator is scored 0–100 on seven weighted factors — redemption reliability, KYC fairness, Terms-of-Service honesty, playthrough, track record, reviews, and support. The weights ship inside every response in the weights object. The full rubric, the confidence model, and the band thresholds are documented on the methodology page. Scoring is independent of monetization; see our affiliate disclosure for how affiliate relationships are tracked separately from editorial judgment.
No warranty
The data is provided “as is,” without warranty of any kind. Scores recompute as new evidence lands, so values change over time; the generated_at field in each response tells you when that copy was built. Bonus Bandit is not liable for decisions made on the basis of this data. Nothing here is financial or legal advice. 21+. Gambling problem? Call 1-800-GAMBLER.
