The People Behind
Scatter Meter

Who writes this site, what we check before publishing, and the standards we hold ourselves to. Gambling content affects how people spend money, so the process should be visible.

Who We Are

The Scatter Meter Team

Scatter Meter is built and maintained by a small team working on Philippine online slot data. We publish under a team byline rather than individual names. That is a deliberate choice, and it has a trade-off worth naming: a named expert with a public track record carries more weight than a team byline does, and we are choosing transparency of process over personal branding.

What we can tell you about the team is what is verifiable from the work itself: we operate a live data integration with 15 slot providers covering 815+ games, we have maintained it at a cost of over $60,000 USD a year, and we publish the methodology behind every number in full on the methodology page. You do not have to take our expertise on faith — you can check the pipeline description against the readings.

Standards

What we do before a page goes live

Numbers come from the pipeline
Any figure about game data comes from the provider API integration described in our methodology. We do not publish estimated or community-sourced numbers as if they were measured.
Limits stated, not buried
Every page that discusses meters also states what meters cannot do. If a claim has a caveat, the caveat appears next to the claim.
No outcome promises
We do not publish content that implies a spin can be predicted, a win is due, or a strategy beats the house edge. Slot outcomes are RNG-determined and we say so.
Commercial relationships disclosed
Where a page links to a casino partner we earn from, that is disclosed on the page, not only in the footer.
Licensing stated factually
Where we describe an operator, we state its licensing position as a matter of record and do not characterise it beyond what is documented.
Dated and revisited
Data-dependent pages are reviewed when the underlying data or the market changes, not left to drift.

Corrections

How to tell us we are wrong

Errors get fixed and acknowledged rather than quietly edited away. If you find a wrong reading, a broken claim, or a page that overstates what the data supports, report it through the Telegram channel.

For a reading, include the game name and roughly when you saw it — that is usually enough for us to trace it through the pipeline.

Funding

How this site makes money

Scatter Meter is free to use with no account and no download. It is funded through casino partner referrals: when a player opens a platform through a Play Now link, we earn a referral fee. That revenue covers the data integration cost.

The relevant question is whether that affects what you read. It does not affect the readings, which come straight from provider APIs with no editorial step. It is a reason to read our partner-linked pages with the same scepticism you would apply to any affiliate content — which is why we disclose it here, on the page about our standards, rather than only in small print.

If gambling has stopped being fun
No amount of data makes gambling safe, and this site is not for anyone gambling to recover losses or under financial pressure. If that describes your situation, please read our responsible gaming page for help and resources.
