About Refs.gg

01

Our background

Our experience in this space dates back to around 2015. Over the years, we have worked directly on gambling platforms that use digital items or crypto. This gave us practical experience with game systems, payments, offers, and domain changes.

We use that background when checking features and terms. It does not prove that a listed platform is safe, so our pages rely on current information and clearly state what we could not confirm.

What Refs.gg covers

Refs.gg compares CS2 and Rust gambling platforms, promo codes, and reward sites operated by other companies. Depending on the service, users may gamble with skins, site credits, or crypto, use promo codes, or complete offers for rewards.

We do not accept wagers, process deposits, hold user funds or items, or operate gambling games.

  • Games and accounts: Game modes, supported assets, account requirements, and published restrictions.
  • Payments and offers: Deposit and withdrawal methods, limits, fees, promo benefits, and offer conditions.
  • Platform information: Current domains, operator details, available support, and information about fair play tools.
03

How we check platforms

We start with information published on the platform website, including its terms, help pages, and offer pages. When possible, we also check the live service. Each listing uses the same main areas so readers can compare the facts more easily.

  • Access: Current domain, supported regions, age rules, and account requirements.
  • Games: Available modes and the items or currencies they use.
  • Payments: Published methods, limits, fees, and withdrawal conditions.
  • Promotions: Code benefits, claim conditions, and restrictions.
  • Background: Published operator information, terms, and platform history.
  • Verification: Fair play explanations and any verification tools available to users.

A feature shown on a website does not remove the risk of using that service. Details can change after our last check, so users should confirm the current terms before registering, depositing, or claiming an offer.

Listings and affiliate links

Listing order: Listings are arranged by editorial judgment instead of a fixed score. We consider whether a platform is available, how well it fits the page, which features it offers, and how clearly it publishes its terms.

Affiliate relationships: Some links are affiliate links. Refs.gg may receive a commission if a user follows one and then registers or uses the platform. These relationships can affect which platforms appear and where they are placed.

Domain changes: A similar name or unexpected redirect is not enough to confirm a move. We look for confirmation from an established website, a published notice, or another official channel.

Closed platforms: Platforms that close or can no longer be confirmed are removed from active comparisons. Some former listings may remain in a clearly marked archive and are not active recommendations.

An affiliate relationship does not verify a platform's claims or guarantee its availability, conduct, or payouts.

05

Responsible gambling

Gambling involves a risk of loss and is restricted to users aged 18 or older, or the legal gambling age where they live. Set spending and time limits. Do not gamble with money or items you cannot afford to lose.

If gambling is becoming a problem, consider blocking access to gambling services and contacting a support organization in your country.
