About Us

Non Gamstop Casinos was set up for one straightforward reason: UK players who have self-excluded through GAMSTOP still want clear, honest information about the casinos operating outside that scheme. We're not a licensing body and we don't run any of the sites we cover — we're an independent research and comparison resource that looks at what's actually on offer, how it works, and what to check before you sign up anywhere.

What we do

Our job is to compare casinos not on Gamstop against each other on the things that genuinely matter to someone choosing between them: the size and terms of a welcome offer, the range of games, the payment methods available, and how the site handles the basics like account verification and support. We publish rankings, mini reviews and full comparison pages so a reader can see the differences at a glance rather than digging through terms and conditions on ten different sites.

We also cover the wider picture — what non Gamstop casinos actually are, how they differ from UKGC-licensed sites, and where betting sites not on Gamstop fit into the same landscape, since many of the operators we review offer sports betting alongside their casino products.

How we rate and rank

Every casino on our site is scored against the same set of criteria, and commission never buys a higher position. We look at:

• Game selection — the balance of slots, table games and live-dealer options
• Welcome offers and ongoing bonuses — the headline offer alongside its wagering requirements, minimum deposit and expiry
• Payment methods — the range and speed of deposit and withdrawal options, including whether the site accepts Paysafe or other cash-based methods
• Licensing — most sites in this space operate under a Curaçao licence rather than a UK one, and we note this against each brand rather than assuming a UK standard applies
• Site usability and support — how easy the site is to navigate and how contactable the operator is

Ratings are our own editorial judgement, based on research into each operator's public terms, licensing information and site content. We haven't deposited or wagered money with these operators ourselves, and our scores are not customer reviews — they're a structured comparison to help you narrow down where to look further.

A quick look at where our top-rated sites stand

Bonus percentages and spin counts are advertised figures set by each operator, not results we've achieved ourselves — always check the current terms, wagering requirements and expiry dates on the operator's own site before opting in, since these details can change.

Why we cover this market at all

Self-exclusion through GAMSTOP is a legitimate and useful tool, and we say so plainly on our Responsible Gambling page. But GAMSTOP only covers operators licensed by the UK Gambling Commission — it has no reach over sites licensed elsewhere, such as Curaçao. That's a gap some readers are already aware of and are actively searching to understand, and we'd rather give them accurate, balanced information than leave the topic to guesswork or misleading marketing. We're not here to tell anyone whether they should or shouldn't use these sites — that's a personal decision. We're here to make sure that if someone is going to look into it, they can do so with clear facts about how these casinos operate, what protections do and don't apply, and what a given offer actually costs to unlock.

Part of that honesty means being upfront about the positives some readers find in this space: fewer restrictions on account limits, broader game libraries from providers not always seen on UK-licensed sites, larger headline bonus percentages, and payment flexibility that includes options like cryptocurrency or Paysafe cards. We report these features factually, alongside the trade-offs — different licensing standards, less standardised dispute resolution, and terms that reward careful reading.

Standards we hold ourselves to

We keep our review process consistent across every operator we list:

1. We check each site's publicly stated licensing, ownership and terms before it's added to any ranking
2. We record the actual wording of welcome offers, including caps, minimum deposits and wagering conditions, rather than summarising loosely
3. We update pages when an operator's terms or offer details change, dated at the top of the page
4. We do not accept payment in exchange for a higher rating, and our comparison order reflects our own criteria, not advertiser spend

Full details on how we handle offer information, and the legal basis for our content, are set out in our Terms and Conditions.
