Sources & methodology

Gambling is sold through a designed sequence. Each stage below is a mechanism the industry uses to acquire a player, convert them to a first deposit, keep them playing and — at the end — make leaving with money harder than arriving with it. Each record states what the mechanism is for commercially, not only what it does.

No mechanism here is attributed to a named company. These are descriptions of practice. Evidence against a particular operator belongs on that operator’s dossier, with its sources attached.
