Funding
How Nearest Territory is funded
Income for Nearest Territory comes from three paid links. They appear on its home page, and each one bears the label Ad. Nothing else is paid: this site receives no money from casinos, operators, AGLC, Play Alberta or help services.
The three paid links
Ad is the label on each of the three paid links found on the site's home page. Link one is in the menu, link two appears in a block right below the opening screen, and link three lies toward the bottom. Each of them leads to one online casino partner. The site's link partner makes that choice, and it may switch to another. The site is paid a commission through them.
Both paid blocks carry the label Ad, 18+, the words "Play responsibly" and help lines. The Addiction Helpline answers at 1-866-332-2322, free and 24/7. A call to 211, or a text of INFO to 211, reaches 211 Alberta. The partner is not Play Alberta, is not run by AGLC or the Alberta iGaming Corporation, and has no connection with any casino in this guide. Any online operator can be checked in the Alberta iGaming Corporation's directory at abigaming.ca.
What is never paid for
This site receives no money from casinos, operators, AGLC, the Alberta iGaming Corporation, Play Alberta or help services. No paid links appear on the 30 casino pages, the zone hubs or any other inner page. Nobody pays for the links that point to casinos or help services, either.
Territory sizes come from an equal-area map of Alberta, measured in square kilometres. Every distance is a straight line, not road, between two map points, computed by the guide from OpenStreetMap coordinates. Lists follow those measured figures, and nobody pays to change their order. No casino in the guide receives a rating, a score or a star.
Questions
Do casinos pay to be included in the guide?
Not one casino pays for a place here, and the same holds for operators, AGLC, the Alberta iGaming Corporation and Play Alberta. Each of the 30 casinos has a page because it has slot machines or VLTs and AGLC casino status.
Who is the online partner behind the paid links?
It is a private online casino, chosen by the site's link partner, and it can change. It is not Play Alberta, is not run by AGLC or the Alberta iGaming Corporation, and has no tie to any casino here.
