Why “Flip The Switch”
Our name comes from a common phrase players use in the slots community: the casino must have “flipped the switch” to raise (or lower) payouts! While there is no truth to this proverbial switch, it provides a good analogy for what our mission is.
Flip The Switch signifies the power it gives players to take control of their gaming experience. By providing you valuable tools & insights into the gaming world, YOU become a smarter player. We aim to turn our players on (see what we did there?) to well-researched information, tips and more so you can benefit from maximizing your comps, claiming great offers, and being savvier all around.

Robin Aubin
