Who prints this sheet

What this sheet is for

The Spin Sheet prices free spins and no-deposit offers for readers in Great Britain, and the offers it prices hold no Great Britain licence. One idea runs through all of it. A headline figure is money credited, each condition written under it is money charged, and the only number worth having is the one at the foot.

Eighty-five sheets apply that idea to eighty-five different questions, and a sheet is finished when it has struck a total in pounds and pence. A document that lists features without reaching a total has not done the work, and it would be interchangeable with any other page on the subject.

The name is literal. A sheet here is drawn rather than written: a reference line, a figure, a schedule, a plate and a total. The method that produces the total is set out in full on how a receipt is struck, and the front sheet works one offer through from face value to nothing.

It computes, and it does not play

This site models, computes and cites. It does not play. No account was opened to produce any figure on it, no cycle was taken, no payout was timed and no cashier was telephoned.

Everything here is either a sourced claim with a primary source beside it or arithmetic done openly on assumptions a reader can see and reject. That is a narrower claim than most pages on this subject make, and it is the only one these sheets can support.

It also means a reader who wants to know how a particular cashier behaved last Tuesday will not find it here, and should not trust a page that offers it. The compensating advantage is that arithmetic does not go stale. A total struck on stated assumptions is as good next year as it is today, and a payout time cannot claim as much.

Where a fact has to come from

Facts on these sheets come from primary sources and from nothing else. That means the statute as published on legislation.gov.uk, the regulator’s own licence conditions and technical standards, the advertising regulator’s own advice and rulings, an official register, a scheme’s own pages, or a regulator’s own published policy document.

A search snippet is not a source. A law firm’s note, a trade publication, an industry blog, an affiliate page and an operator’s own marketing are none of them citable here. Several things a sheet might want to say are therefore missing, and they are recorded as gaps rather than filled from somewhere softer.

Where two primary sources say different things, both are named and neither is declared the winner. Where a source could not be reached at all, the sheet says so in terms and offers no substitute. Each claim is dated to the day it was checked, and where a sheet leans on an older document it says how old that document is.

The rules a drawing obeys

A few rules bind every drawing, and they are worth stating because they constrain what this site is able to tell anyone. British spelling throughout, no superlatives, and a figure with its unit in place of an adjective wherever one will do.

Words that promise an outcome are barred, and that is an advertising rule rather than a preference: an offer cannot be advertised as free if the customer’s own money has to go in to qualify.

Nothing here helps anyone round a protection. No mirrors, no proxies, no advice about networks, no second accounts and nothing about registering without documents. The self-exclusion and blocking facts on these sheets exist so that a reader can use those tools, and for no other reason. Where the subject of a sheet is a site that sits outside the national scheme, the sheet explains honestly what such a site is and what it costs a reader, and stops there.

What a reader will not find here

Things a reader will not find here, listed so that nobody wastes time looking.

The commercial side of the operation, which pays for the drawing and does not touch the arithmetic, is set out on how this sheet is paid.

How a sheet is laid out

A sheet has the same furniture every time, which makes two of them comparable at a glance. At the head sits a reference line with the revision and the date the figures were checked, then the title, then a standfirst that leads on the figure the sheet turns on.

A contents bar follows, numbered to match the parts underneath it. The parts carry the prose, the schedules and the plates, and a dimension line marks a measured quantity wherever one is worth isolating. Questions come next, answered in the same prose as the body, and a care note closes the sheet with the helpline and the self-exclusion scheme.

Sheets are grouped by the debit that decides the total, which is why the sections read as they do: the multiple for offers settled by the play-through, off the register for what the absence of a British licence costs, and the room for what the game itself does to the line.

Corrections, and the date on every sheet

A figure on these sheets can be wrong, and the honest response to that is a correction rather than a silence. Each sheet carries the date its figures were checked, so a reader can see how old the arithmetic is before relying on it, and a revision number that moves when the wording does.

A reader who finds a figure that cannot be traced to its source, or a total that does not follow from its own assumptions, is asked to say so. The address is on write to the sheet, and a correction is made to the sheet itself rather than noted somewhere nobody reads.
