About CasinoReview

We review offshore casinos that accept UK players, with a focus on brands that operate outside the GamStop scheme. Our goal is simple: show the real sign-up, bonus, payout and support experience, so you spend less time filtering marketing copy and more time playing on a site that fits how you actually play.

Who we are

CasinoReview is an independent editorial team covering non-UKGC casinos licensed by regulators such as Anjouan and Curacao. We are not a casino and we do not run the sites we review. Our output is a shortlist, individual brand write-ups, bonus explainers, payment guides and responsible-gambling resources.

The site is read mostly by UK adults looking at legitimate offshore alternatives after a GamStop self-exclusion, or for faster payouts, higher deposit limits and a wider game catalogue than UKGC venues typically allow.

How we test a casino

  1. Create a real account using a UK address and a UK payment method.
  2. Make a deposit at the lowest acceptable threshold and claim the welcome offer.
  3. Play across slots, live dealer and, where available, sportsbook or crash games.
  4. Submit KYC documents and complete a withdrawal in at least one fiat and one crypto method.
  5. Open a support ticket on an unrelated question and time the response.
  6. Record every observed limit, fee, pending window and bonus clause.

Only after this cycle a brand gets a score. If something cannot be verified by direct testing, we say so.

What we score

  • Licence transparency and verifiable regulator entry.
  • Welcome and reload bonus terms, wagering, cashout caps.
  • Payout speed per method, including crypto and e-wallet.
  • Support quality, response time and channels available.
  • Game catalogue depth and provider mix.
  • Mobile UX on iOS and Android browsers.
  • Available responsible-gambling tools.

How we are funded

We may receive compensation when a reader signs up through a link on this site. This does not change the ranking: a brand cannot pay to move up the shortlist, and a negative test result removes a casino from our list regardless of commercial relationship. If an operator does not accept our testing conditions, we simply do not cover it.

Updates and corrections

Casino terms change often. We re-check bonuses, payout policies and licensing details on a rolling basis and date-stamp the shortlist in the footer. If you spot an outdated figure or a broken experience, write to us and we will re-test. Verified changes are published within a few business days.

Our scope

We cover offshore, non-UKGC casinos accessible to UK players. We do not cover UKGC-licensed operators, affiliate aggregators, cryptocurrency exchanges, prediction markets or P2P betting platforms. Within our scope we prioritise brands that offer GBP accounts, English support and payment rails that work for UK residents.

Responsibility

Non-GamStop casinos operate outside the UK national self-exclusion scheme. Readers who are currently self-excluded via GamStop will not be stopped at the brands we review. Please read our responsible gambling page and use the deposit, loss and session limits that every casino on our list exposes in the account area. Gambling is for adults only, 18+.
