Editorial policy
How we review
What we check, how each area is weighted, and how often the pages on this site are re-verified.
What we assess
Every page on this site is built on the same set of checks. We look at documents and published terms first, and treat marketing claims as claims until they are confirmed somewhere verifiable.
| Area | Weight | What we check |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing and legality | 30% | Presence in the UK Gambling Commission register, any additional foreign licence, and whether UK players are accepted. |
| Payouts | 25% | Minimum amounts, daily/weekly/monthly limits, processing times, fees, and the method-matching rule. |
| Bonus terms | 20% | Wagering multiplier, validity window, maximum withdrawal from bonus winnings, bet limits and eligibility. |
| Account and security | 15% | Registration flow, KYC requirements, data protection measures, responsible gambling tools. |
| Support and mobile | 10% | Contact channels, availability, response languages, and how the app compares with the mobile site. |
Our sources
- the operator's own terms and conditions, bonus rules and privacy policy;
- the public UK Gambling Commission register;
- the licence documents referenced by the operator;
- the casino's support service for points the published documents do not cover.
What the score means
The editorial score on the home page is a summary of the five areas above on a 1-5 scale. It is an editorial judgement, not a guarantee, and it is not for sale. A high score does not mean the casino suits you: limits that are irrelevant to one player can be a dealbreaker for another, which is why the numbers are always published rather than summarised away.
Independence
The site earns commission from operator links, as explained in About this site. Commercial arrangements have no influence on which drawbacks we publish. Where a rule works against the player - a capped payout, a mandatory verification step, a method-matching restriction - it is stated plainly.
How often pages are updated
Payment and bonus figures are re-checked periodically and after any operator announcement that affects them. The "updated" date at the top of each page reflects the last verification, not the last cosmetic edit. Spotted something out of date? Let us know.
