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.

The practical differences
These are separate operations in our records: MegaBonanza is operated by LuminaryPlay Operations Limited and Chumba by VGW Malta Limited, so the factor gaps above compare two different companies, not one owner's two skins.
The cash-out bar is not the same: MegaBonanza lets you request a redemption from $75, while Chumba 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 Chumba (mail-in postcard) but none confirmed for MegaBonanza yet. That is a documentation gap on our side, not proof the route is missing.
MegaBonanza: minimum redemption $75. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by LuminaryPlay Operations Limited.
Chumba: minimum redemption $100. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by VGW Malta Limited.
