How we review casinos
Research, verify, score, monitor. 1 of 3 categories carries enough published reviews to rank.
Scores come from a rubric that ranks each operator against the others we cover on games, bonuses, trust, payouts and mobile experience. Observed scores run from 3.2 to 4.4 across a measured set of 160 listings. We track 223 live casino listings; 160 currently have published review coverage. Scores apply only within that reviewed subset, so a grade describes relative standing, not an absolute verdict.
Crypto casinos and Mystery boxes are early-data categories. We list them, but we do not rank them until enough reviews are published to make an ordering mean anything.
