Our Casino Review Methodology

A rating is meaningless without a transparent process. We are not just giving an opinion; we are scoring each casino against a consistent, data-driven model. Our final score is a weighted average of five key pillars. You can check our Casino Review Methodology.

Step 2: Provide Per-Casino Evidence in Every Single Review

This is the most powerful part. For every review you have, you must create a new "Trust Report" or "Evidence Locker" section. This should be a visually distinct box placed right at the top of the review, next to your main summary box.

Here is a template for what this "Evidence Locker" should contain for every casino you review.

Our Review Promise: How We Rate Every Casino

A rating is meaningless without a transparent process. Every casino we review is graded on the same five core principles, ensuring our scores are fair, consistent, and based on what truly matters to players.

• 1. Licensing & Security: We verify their license and security protocols. An unlicensed casino is an instant failure and is immediately blacklisted.

• 2. Payout Speed & Reliability: We make a real-money deposit and then personally time the withdrawal process. Delays, excuses, and unfair fees are heavily penalized in our ratings.

• 3. Bonus Fairness: We read every word of the fine print. A huge bonus with impossible 500x wagering requirements will score much lower than a smaller bonus with fair 35x terms.

• 4. Game Quality & Variety: We test the games to ensure they are from legitimate, well-known software providers and that the library offers a good selection for all player types.

• 5. Customer Support: We test their support channels with real questions to measure their speed, professionalism, and helpfulness. A casino that is hard to contact is a casino you can't trust.

Our final score is a weighted average of these key areas. You can find a detailed breakdown in each individual review.

Our Casino Review Methodology: A Look Behind the Rating

A rating is meaningless without a transparent process. Every casino we review is graded on the same five core principles, ensuring our scores are fair, consistent, and based on what truly matters to players.

• 1. Licensing & Security (Weight: 30%): This is non-negotiable. We verify their license and test security protocols. An unlicensed casino is an instant failure and is immediately blacklisted.

• 2. Payout Speed & Reliability (Weight: 25%): We make a real-money deposit and then personally time the withdrawal process. Delays, excuses, and unfair fees are heavily penalized in our ratings.

• 3. Bonus Fairness (Weight: 20%): We read every word of the fine print. A huge bonus with impossible 500x wagering requirements will score much lower than a smaller bonus with fair 35x terms.

• 4. Game Quality & Variety (Weight: 15%): We test the games to ensure they are from legitimate, well-known software providers and that the library offers a good selection for all player types.

• 5. Customer Support (Weight: 10%): We test their support channels with real questions to measure their speed, professionalism, and helpfulness. A casino that is hard to contact is a casino you can't trust.

Our final score is a weighted average of these key areas. You can find a detailed breakdown in each individual review.

Expert vs. Player Reviews: Why You Need Both

The smartest way to choose a casino is to use both expert analysis and real player feedback. They tell you different, equally important parts of the story.

• Our Expert Reviews are objective and technical. We focus on the things that guarantee safety and fairness: licensing, data security, payment processing, and bonus terms. Our job is to protect you from unfair practices.

• Real Player Reviews are subjective and emotional. They tell you what it feels like to play at a casino—the thrill of a big win, the frustration of a technical glitch, or the relief of a helpful support agent.

The best decision comes from finding a casino where both stories align: one that gets a high safety and fairness score from us, and also has consistent, positive feedback from the community.

Our Commitment to Player Safety: The Blacklist

Part of our commitment to your safety is not just telling you where to play, but also where not to play. This blacklist serves as our public warning against casinos that have engaged in unethical practices and failed our fundamental safety checks.

Currently, this list is empty. This is good news. It means that in our recent reviews, we have not encountered any new casinos that meet the severe criteria required for a blacklisting.

However, this section is actively maintained. A casino will be added here immediately if we find evidence of any of the following critical failures:

• Verified Reports of Unpaid Winnings: A casino's primary responsibility is to pay its players. Failure to do so is the most serious offense.
• Operating Without a Valid License: We will never recommend, and will actively warn against, any casino operating without a legitimate license from a recognized gambling authority.
• Use of Pirated or Non-Certified Games: Offering games that are not from legitimate software providers is a major breach of trust.
• Deceptive or Predatory Bonus Terms: Hiding unfair rules in the fine print or making it impossible to withdraw bonus winnings is an unacceptable practice.

If a previously recommended casino's standards drop and they fail in one of these areas, we will move them here. Your safety is our number one priority, and this list is our promise to help you avoid the bad actors in the industry.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. How do you rate the casinos?

We use a comprehensive testing process based on five key pillars: License & Security, Payout Speed, Bonus Fairness, Game Quality, and Customer Support. Each review contains a detailed breakdown of how a casino scored in each category.

2. Are your reviews unbiased?

Yes. Our primary commitment is to our readers. While we are an affiliate site, our ratings are based strictly on the results of our hands-on tests. If a casino performs poorly, we will say so, as you can see from our warnings and blacklist.

3. Can I trust a new online casino?

You can, but only if it meets strict criteria. A new casino must have a valid license from a reputable authority and a transparent owner. We are always extra cautious when reviewing new sites, paying close attention to their payout process and player feedback.
