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: Zula is operated by SCPS LLC and McLuck by B-Two Operations Limited, so the factor gaps above compare two different companies, not one owner's two skins.
The cash-out bar is not the same: Zula lets you request a redemption from $50, while McLuck makes you reach $75 first. If you play small, that gap decides which side actually pays you.
We have a documented no-purchase entry route for Zula (mail-in postcard) but none confirmed for McLuck yet. That is a documentation gap on our side, not proof the route is missing.
Zula: minimum redemption $50. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by SCPS LLC.
McLuck: minimum redemption $75. payout methods not confirmed yet. operated by B-Two Operations Limited.
