Factor by factor
A factor is one of the seven things we score. Edge names the site with the higher score on that factor, and by how much. A tie stays a tie. Where we have not scored a factor on both sides it reads as not scored yet, which is a gap in our work and never a zero for the site.

Sign-up bonus
GC are Gold Coins: play money, never worth cash. SC are Sweeps Coins: those are the ones that can be turned into money, once you have played them through and reached the site's cash-out minimum. A bigger pile of GC is not more money.

The practical differences
These are separate operations in our records: Jackpota is operated by Silver Social Operations Limited and Stake by Sweepsteaks Limited, so the factor gaps above compare two different companies, not one owner's two skins.
The cash-out bar is not the same: Stake lets you request a redemption from $48.4, while Jackpota makes you reach $100 first. If you play small, that gap decides which side actually pays you.
We have a documented no-purchase entry route for Stake (mail-in postcard) but none confirmed for Jackpota yet. That is a documentation gap on our side, not proof the route is missing.
Jackpota: minimum redemption $100. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by Silver Social Operations Limited.
Stake: minimum redemption $48.4. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by Sweepsteaks Limited.
