About TF2Gambling.com

TF2Gambling.com reviews TF2 gambling sites by using them. We fund an account, play it, withdraw a TF2 item and publish the screenshots of every step. The site earns affiliate commission, and no operator can buy a place on the list or change a rating.

Who runs this site

TF2Gambling.com is run by an independent operator who has not published a company name. There is no network, no parent brand and no operator money behind the ratings. You can reach the person behind it at contact@tf2gambling.com.

The byline on every review is Vito S, and that is a pen name rather than a legal name. The picture beside it is a drawing, not a photograph of a person. Vito S has been trading and gambling TF2 items since 2016 and runs CS2WH as well as this site. Beyond that, nothing about the person is published, so weigh the reviews on the screenshots rather than on the name.

What the site does

We deposit on a TF2 gambling site, play several of its game modes, withdraw a TF2 item to Steam and time the payout. Then we publish the screenshots of every step, including the timestamps. A review with no proof section is a review of a site we have not paid for and cashed out of yet, and we say so on the page.

The method, the rating rubric and the checks we have not run are set out on how we test.

How this site makes money

Affiliate commission, and nothing else. When you open an operator through a Claim Bonus button or use a promo code from a review, the operator pays us a share of what it earns from your play. It costs you nothing, and the offer you get is the same offer you would get by typing the address into your browser.

What that money does not buy:

  • A place on the list: a site is added because it is real and takes TF2 items, not because it pays.
  • A rating: every score comes from the rating rubric and the evidence behind it.
  • A sentence of a review, before or after it goes live: operators cannot approve, edit or remove one.

We have no other income. There are no paid placements, no sponsored posts and no advertising slots on this site.

Where the ratings come from

Each rating is a weighted average of six scores, published in full on how we test along with the score every site got on every criterion. The build recomputes the total from those scores and fails if it does not match the number on the review, so the star bar and the table can never disagree.

What we have not done yet

As of today:

  • No licence or ownership research on any site.
  • No provably fair round re-computed by us, on any site.
  • No support response test.
  • No withdrawal larger than one coin, so no test of limits, fees or identity checks at a size that would trigger them.

Those four jobs are booked and the results will be added to the reviews with the same screenshot chain everything else gets.

Frequently asked questions

Who writes TF2Gambling.com?

Vito S, a pen name used here and on CS2WH, which does the same job for CS2 gambling. Vito S has been trading and gambling TF2 items since 2016, and funded every account, played the games and made every withdrawal shown in the proof sections. The avatar is a drawing, not a photograph.

Do the sites you review pay you?

They pay affiliate commission when a reader signs up through one of our links or promo codes, and nothing else. No operator has paid to be listed, no operator has paid for a rating, and no operator sees or edits a review. If one asks us to change a number, we ask for evidence and correct the page only when the evidence holds.

Why is the owner not named?

No company has been registered for the site yet, so naming one would be an invention. The contact address reaches the person who runs it, and every claim on the site is backed by a screenshot you can look at yourself rather than by a name.

Tester and editor

I have been trading and gambling TF2 items since 2016. I run this site and CS2WH, which does the same job for CS2 gambling. No site gets a rating here until I have funded it with my own money, played it and pulled a TF2 item back out.

Every review on this site carries my byline, and every screenshot in a proof section comes from a session I ran.
