Evidence before scores
We do not publish a numerical rating until enough evidence has been collected. Profiles marked “Not rated” document what we can verify without implying that an operator is average, safe or recommended.
Our review criteria
- Licensing and ownership: regulator records, legal entity, approved domains and material restrictions.
- Country availability: whether the operator is authorised by the relevant national regulator—not merely accessible online.
- Payments and withdrawals: supported methods, stated limits, fees, verification requirements and processing rules.
- Sportsbook and product: market range, odds presentation, usability and relevant product restrictions.
- Terms and fairness: bonus conditions, dormant-account clauses, maximum payouts and account-closure rules.
- Support and transparency: accessible contact channels and consistency between promotional claims and legal terms.
- Safer gambling: limit, cooling-off and self-exclusion tools plus links to independent support.
Testing status
Research based only on published sources is labelled accordingly. We do not claim that deposits, withdrawals or support were tested unless a funded test was actually completed and documented.
Updates and conflicts
Reviews may change when licences, ownership, terms or country rules change. Affiliate relationships are disclosed and do not prevent a low score, warning or decision not to rate.
Research score: weights and scale
The Research score is a desk-research rating, not a hands-on test score. It combines six categories: licensing and ownership (30%), terms and transparency (20%), payments and KYC information (15%), market-availability clarity (15%), safer-gambling controls (10%) and product information (10%). Each category is scored from 0 to 10 using evidence available on the review date.
Score guide: 8.0–10.0 means unusually strong published evidence; 6.0–7.9 means generally clear evidence with limitations; 4.0–5.9 means material gaps or concerns; below 4.0 means weak, inconsistent or unverified evidence. A high score does not override local licensing restrictions and is not a recommendation to register.
Scores are rounded to one decimal place. When evidence cannot be verified, the relevant category is reduced rather than assumed. A future hands-on score would be labelled separately and would require documented account, support, deposit and withdrawal testing.
