One editorial team, one scorecard, no position for sale.

PariSportCentral is an independent comparison publication founded in Paris in 2026. We review sports betting operators holding a licence issued by the Autorité Nationale des Jeux, and nothing else.

Why we started this publication

The French sports betting market has been regulated since 2010 and supervised since 2020 by the Autorité Nationale des Jeux. The regulation is solid; the information available to the public, far less so. Most comparison sites online simply reproduce operators’ marketing copy, rank by the commission they earn, and never say when a rating was established.

We founded PariSportCentral in February 2026 to publish the opposite: a deliberately small number of reviews, produced from accounts genuinely opened and verified, dated, revised, and honest about their negative findings. We would rather have two defensible reviews than twenty unverifiable ones.

How our scorecard works

The overall rating out of 10 is the weighted average of five criteria, measured under an identical protocol for every operator:

CriterionWeightHow we measure it
Odds and margins25%Weekly sampling across 40 benchmark fixtures, with the margin recalculated by us
In-play markets25%Latency, cash-out availability, stability during high-audience fixtures
Mobile app20%Number of steps to place a bet, load times, accessibility
French-language customer support15%Three real tickets per channel, first-response time and answer quality
Moderation tools15%Clicks needed to set a limit, time to apply, clarity of self-exclusion

Every review is re-read in full each quarter. A rating can go down: it has happened before, and it will happen again.

What we do not do

  • We take no bets and hold no funds belonging to any user.
  • We list no operator without an ANJ licence, with no commercial exception possible.
  • We publish no tips, no systems presented as winning, and no promise of returns.
  • We accept no content written by an operator, and grant no right of review before publication.
  • We host no third-party contributions without prior editorial moderation.

Our financial independence

PariSportCentral is funded by commercial links to the operators we review. That model is transparent and set out in full on our advertising disclosure page. Three safeguards frame it: the scorecard is fixed before any negotiation, the ranking is sorted by rating rather than by payment, and weaknesses are published including for our commercial partners.

No operator covered holds any stake, direct or indirect, in the publishing company.
