How We Test & Evaluate
Transparency in how we review bookmakers and casinos.
Our Testing Process
We personally sign up, deposit, and use each platform we review. This hands-on approach allows us to evaluate the real user experience, not just marketing claims. Our team has 10+ years of combined experience testing gambling platforms.
Evaluation Criteria
We assess every bookmaker and casino across seven key areas:
License & Regulation
We verify gambling licenses from trusted authorities like MGA, UKGC, and Curacao. Unlicensed operators are never recommended.
Odds Quality
We compare margins and analyze value across markets. Lower margins mean better returns for bettors.
Payout Speed
We test withdrawal processing times with real deposits. Fast, reliable payouts are essential.
User Experience
We evaluate site and app usability on desktop and mobile. Navigation, speed, and design all matter.
Bonus Terms
We analyze wagering requirements and terms. Fair bonuses with achievable conditions score higher.
Customer Support
We test response times and support quality via live chat and email. Helpful, fast support is crucial.
Payment Methods
We check available deposit and withdrawal options, including fees and limits for each method.
Our Independence
While we may receive compensation from some partners, this never influences our reviews or recommendations. We only recommend platforms we have personally tested and would use ourselves. Our calculators work with any operator - we have no exclusive arrangements that affect our assessments.
