Independent composite scores synthesised from public review feeds and regulatory data, pinned to methodology v2.0.
Ranked by confidence-adjusted score: a tighter ± margin can place a brand above a higher but less certain score.
There are 11 licensed sportsbooks operating in United States. IndexFair ranks them by a published composite score (methodology vv2.0) — no editorial promotion and no operator payments — drawn from 13,020 verified signals across 6 sources. Operators without enough verified signal are listed without a published score rather than shown a low-confidence number.
Each sportsbook's score combines four blocks: regulatory standing (the licence and the regulator's record), user-experience signals aggregated from public reviews, cross-source consistency, and measured product metrics read from the live product. The blocks carry published weights set by the methodology and recorded at /methodology.
Scores are market-relative — every sportsbook is ranked against the other licensed United States sportsbooks rather than on an absolute scale. Before scoring, 465 signals were filtered as spam or low quality. Scores recompute on a schedule and when new review data lands; each brand card carries its own last-updated time.
