How we score
Every casino is checked by our newsroom using the same method: the official site, the licence register, regulators’ decisions, bonus rules, payment terms and how support works. The overall score from 0 to 10 is a weighted sum of six criteria:
- Licence and safety30 %A valid licence, a known owner, data protection and responsible gambling tools.
- Payouts20 %Withdrawal speed and limits, fees and convenient payment methods.
- Games15 %Game providers, live casino and popular games such as Aviator.
- Bonus terms15 %Clear terms: wagering, deadlines and maximum win.
- Support10 %24/7 chat, speed and quality of answers, languages.
- Mobile10 %Apps and how well the mobile site works.
Player votes don’t change the editor’s score: they show what readers think. One vote per casino per device, and you can change it.
We update the data when terms change and show the check date on every card. Bonuses and limits can change, so check the exact terms on the casino’s site.
Scores are based on public data: regulators’ registers and decisions, the casino’s own terms and pages, app store listings and Trustpilot. Our editors don’t play for real money. Regulatory fines and sanctions from the last two years lower the safety score.
The list depends on the country: we only show casinos that accept players from there. We detect your country automatically, and you can change it above the rating.
Responsible gambling
Gambling is for adults only: 18+ or the legal age where you live. Online casinos are not legal in every country, so check your local laws before you play.
Only play with money you can afford to lose. Set deposit and time limits, take breaks and never chase losses.
If gambling stops being fun, use the casino’s self-exclusion tools and talk to a support service: the National Gambling Helpline in the UK (0808 8020 133), 1-800-GAMBLER in the US or Gambling Therapy worldwide (gamblingtherapy.org).
18+Gambling can be addictive. Play responsibly and only where it is legal.
Affiliate links
Some links on this page are affiliate links: if you follow one and sign up, Gembly may receive a commission from the casino. Your terms stay the same. Partnerships may affect the order of the “Recommended” list, but not the editor’s score, which every casino gets under the same method. Gembly’s news coverage is independent of our partners.
Questions and answers
How do I know a casino is licensed?
Find the licence number on the casino’s site and check it in the regulator’s public register, such as those of the UK Gambling Commission, the Malta Gaming Authority or the Curaçao Gaming Authority. A licensed casino verifies your age and identity.
Where can I play Aviator?
Turn on the Aviator filter above the rating to keep only casinos that offer it. Aviator is a crash game by Spribe: the multiplier grows while the plane flies, and you cash out before it disappears.
Why do different countries have different casinos?
A casino only accepts players from countries where it is allowed to operate, and every country has its own rules. So the rating shows the casinos available in the selected country. You can change the country above the rating.
Why isn’t the top casino always the highest scored?
The “Recommended” list is the editor’s choice, and partnerships may affect it. To sort casinos by score, choose “Editor’s score”.
How do player votes work?
Arrow up means you recommend the casino, arrow down means you don’t. One vote per casino per device; press again to cancel. Votes don’t affect the editor’s score.
