How We Rate
Openness is fundamental to UK Casino Compares. Below is the precise framework we apply when evaluating every operator featured on our platform.
Licensing & Credibility
25 %We confirm that each operator holds (or prominently displays) a UK Gambling Commission licence and look for supplementary certifications such as eCOGRA seals or iTech Labs audit reports.
Bonus Value & Transparency
25 %We look beyond headline figures. A modest bonus with 20× wagering can deliver more real value than a large bonus burdened with 50× terms. We calculate the effective value after all conditions are factored in.
Withdrawal Speed
20 %We time genuine cashouts across multiple payment channels and penalise operators that enforce unnecessary holding windows or concealed verification delays.
Game Selection
15 %Breadth and depth count—slots, table games, live dealer, and niche titles. We also assess which software studios are represented and whether popular titles load smoothly on mobile devices.
Customer Support
15 %We reach out to each casino’s support team via live chat and email, measuring response times, knowledge, and whether agents can resolve queries without unnecessary escalation.
Our editorial standards
- ✓No operator can purchase a higher ranking. Affiliate partnerships fund the platform but have zero influence on scores.
- ✓We reassess every listing at least once per month and demote or delist casinos that no longer meet our standards.
- ✓Reader feedback is actively integrated. If you notice something we overlooked, reach out via the contact page.
