Registry checks
We cross-check licence numbers against regulators and test expiry dates.
Licensing first
We list only regulated casinos
Licences, testing certificates, and consumer protection rules come before any offer.
How we verify licences
Key regulators by market

New Zealand
DIA oversight with strict game testing and AML obligations.
South Africa

Signals we monitor
- Late or missing withdrawal payments or unclear source-of-funds requests.
- Removal of responsible gambling tools after sign-up.
- Changes to RTP or bonus terms without clear notice.
- High complaint volumes from verified players or ADR decisions against the operator.
- Advertising breaches, especially towards minors or vulnerable players.
Why regulation matters for you
Fund segregation
Licensed casinos keep player funds separated from operational accounts, protecting withdrawals.
Dispute routes
Regulated markets provide ADRs and ombudsman services. Use our Complaints & Disputes guide.
Advertising rules
Licence conditions prevent targeting vulnerable players and require responsible gambling messaging.
Fair games
RTP and RNG are tested regularly; see Fairness & RTP for what that means.
