The desk score runs from 0 to 10. It reads public records and published numbers. The desk does not place bets at the sites it covers.
score = 10 × Σ(weight × input) ÷ Σ(weights of the inputs we have). A missing input is left out, never counted as zero. A score needs a market on record, a licence input and at least 3 of 4 inputs. Today 5 of 20 covered reviews qualify.
| Input | Weight | How it is read |
|---|---|---|
| CS2 markets and limits | 30% | Esports markets on the site's own pages 80%, only in our listing 60%, +20% when the site states limits per market. No market on record: the site is not rated as a betting site. |
| Odds and margin | 25% | Average margin on two-way CS2 lines (1/a + 1/b – 1). 3% or lower = 100%, 12% or higher = 0%, at least 5 lines. |
| Withdrawals | 25% | Share of matched on-chain withdrawals within 1 hour, 80% or more = 100%. Without on-chain data: 50% if withdrawal rules are published. |
| Licence | 20% | On a register 100%, company on a register 80%, in assessment 60%, register date passed 40%, licence claimed without a match 20%, company not on registers 10%, none stated 0%. |
