Thanks so much, Artem! That's exactly what we built SweepsGuard for — giving players an honest, independent read on which sweeps sites are legit before they sink time or money into them. Glad it's been useful, and feel free to reach out anytime if there's a site you'd like us to look into.

Sweeps Guard was a lifesaver
Sweeps Guard was a lifesaver. I had been getting nowhere with a casino that suddenly decided my previously verified account wasn't verified anymore when it came time to redeem a win. After Sweeps Guard stepped in, my account was verified and my payout was processed almost immediately.
It's nice knowing there's someone out there holding these casinos accountable and helping players when they hit a wall. Huge respect to the work they're doing.

Thank you so much, Kelsi! Sudden "re-verification" right at redemption time is one of the most frustrating walls a player can hit, so we're really glad we could help get your account sorted and your payout processed. Holding casinos accountable and helping players who hit a wall is the whole mission. Wishing you continued luck out there!

SweepsGuard isn’t independent — it gets paid by the casinos it grades.
UPDATE TO THEIR REPLY: Appreciate the response, Mike, and I’ll take it at face value. But notice what you confirmed: you’re part of the network, and you do carry affiliate links on the casinos you grade. That was the whole point, and you just verified it.
Disclosing a conflict doesn’t remove it. It just means people can see it. “Independent” doesn’t mean “we told you about our financial stake” — it means there is no financial stake. A doctor paid by a drug company can disclose that all day and still isn’t an independent reviewer of the drug.
“Our grades are based on data, not money” is the part no one outside your company can verify. I’m not claiming you set a price per grade. I’m pointing at the structure: you earn a commission when someone signs up through a grade you assigned. That incentive exists whether or not you act on it, and readers can’t audit your internal scoring to confirm you don’t.
Blacklisting some sites and recovering some funds is good, and it’s also exactly what makes the favorable grades worth something. A channel that praised everyone would fool no one. None of that changes the core fact you confirmed: you make money off the operators you rate. That’s a paid referral model with a grading layer on top, and people should read it that way.
——-
This site brands itself as an “independent” watchdog with “independent advocacy.” After using it, I don’t buy that, and the reasons are right there on their own site.
Their own footer lists them as part of a larger sweeps network, sitting alongside other sweeps brands like FreeSweepCoins. So the same group grading these casinos also runs a network that promotes them. That alone is hard to square with the word independent. It gets worse when you look at how they link out: the button to visit a casino they grade carries an affiliate tracking code, the kind that pays a commission when you sign up. So they earn money off the same casinos they’re handing grades to.
That changes how I read the grades. DimeSweeps gets a B from them, and the page is set up to make money when you act on that B. When the grader profits from your signup, a good grade stops feeling like a safety rating and starts feeling like a sales pitch.
My takeaway after relying on them: this isn’t a neutral watchdog, it’s an advertising channel wearing a watchdog’s label. I’d treat the grades as ads and verify any casino through real regulators instead. It’s sad to see people are so uneducated now, consumers just become sycophants and let things happen to them and then complain about it instead. The answer to that problem is stop believing websites like this.

Hi Nayte, thanks for the feedback — transparency matters to us, so I want to address this directly.
You're right that SweepsGuard is part of TheSweepsHub network, and we've never hidden that — it's in our footer on purpose. Transparency isn't a conflict of interest; hiding it would be.
Grades are based on Trustpilot data, complaint patterns, operator conduct, and terms review — never money. We've blacklisted sites other networks happily promote, and we'd downgrade any partner if the evidence called for it. No one gets a pass.
We've also mediated dozens of real player complaints and recovered funds for players. That's not how an advertising channel operates.
Always open to specific feedback, but the claim that our grades are ads doesn't match how we actually run things.
— Mike, SweepsGuard
