Every casino review on this site is built the same way, so the scores are comparable. We read each operator's live cashier, promotions and terms pages, capture real screenshots where they exist, and score the site on six areas. This page explains exactly what we measure, what we verify, and what we refuse to invent.

What we score
The six areas and their weight
Each casino gets one editorial score out of 10, built from six weighted areas. We weight payouts and safety most heavily, because a large welcome offer means nothing if a withdrawal stalls or a dispute has no recourse. The weights are fixed and add up to 100, so the same inputs always produce the same overall score - the six area scores combine at these weights, not by feel.
| Area | What it covers | Weight |
|---|---|---|
| Banking and payouts | Rails, fees, withdrawal speed, limits, KYC | 25% |
| Safety and licence | Licence body, ownership, terms fairness | 20% |
| Bonuses and promotions | Welcome offer, wagering, ongoing value | 20% |
| Game library | Size, providers, live dealer | 15% |
| Support | Channels, hours, response quality | 10% |
| Mobile | Browser play, install options, performance | 10% |
One editorial score, no aggregate rating
We publish a single editorial score per casino. We do not attach a self-issued aggregate "player rating" or a review count, because one editor is not an aggregate and a fabricated star average is misleading. The number you see is our assessment, stated plainly.
How we verify facts
What we check on the operator's own pages
We confirm bonus tiers, wagering, minimum deposits, banking rails, game counts and licence claims against the operator's live pages on a dated check. Screenshots of the promotions page or cashier are used as evidence, not decoration - a real capture proves the minimum deposit without us claiming a stopwatch figure.
What we do not claim
Where a figure is not disclosed on the site, we write "not disclosed on site" rather than guess. We do not invent to-the-second deposit or withdrawal times, wallet addresses, support-agent names, device tests or player counts. If we have not measured something ourselves, we say so.
How we handle payout speed
Payout speed is given as an honest range tied to the rail, for example "crypto typically clears within about an hour of approval, per the operator's stated times", rather than a single invented minute count. When a real measured cashout is on record, we report a range across at least two sessions.
When we update
We re-verify bonus and banking terms on a dated cycle and mark each review with a "last verified" date. Bonus and payment rules change often, so a review is a snapshot, not a permanent guarantee. We update or drop a casino when its terms change or its reputation shifts.
Our independence
We earn a commission from some partner links, which we disclose on every page. Commissions do not affect scores or rankings - no operator can buy a higher position. Our reviews are editorial, and we flag the trade-offs even on the casinos we rate highest. You can see this method applied across our ten reviews.
Frequently asked questions
Where we have first-hand results, we report them as honest ranges. Where we do not, we rely on the operator's stated terms and say so, rather than inventing a measured figure.
Every casino we cover is an offshore Curacao-licensed operator with real trade-offs. None is flawless, so the scores cluster and the differences between them matter more than the absolute number.
No. We disclose affiliate links, but rankings are editorial and commissions do not affect them.
