Read guide →How we rate operators
Every casino and sportsbook is assessed against verifiable facts from public sources — we do not gamble with real money and we do not pretend to. Affiliate links keep the site free but never influence a score. The full procedure is set out in our methodology.
1. Licence & operator
We check the offshore licence in the regulator's register, the ownership behind it, fairness audits and the public complaints record.
2. Terms & crypto payments
We read the T&Cs: bonus wagering, which coins and networks are actually supported, minimums, withdrawal limits and fees.
3. Editorial score
Five categories rated 1–10 by our editors and weighted into one score. It is our judgement against published criteria, not a measurement.
