Our review methodology

Every brand is evaluated against a consistent 6-pillar rubric. We publish only verifiable facts and cite platform terms on critical points (e.g., bonus rules, withdrawal limits) within brand pages.

1) Licensing & Safety

  • Valid licence check + sanction/blacklist screening
  • RNG/RTP disclosure and provider audits (when available)
  • Player protection tools (limits, cool-off, self-exclusion)

2) Payments & Speed

  • Local rails (e.g., OPay, PalmPay, EFT) where relevant
  • Min/max, fees, KYC requirements, cut-off times
  • Withdrawal proof where possible

3) Odds & Games

  • Sports margins, markets & live features
  • Casino game mix, studios, live dealer quality
  • Published RTP ranges for popular titles

4) UX & Mobile

  • Android/iOS apps, PWA readiness, data usage
  • Navigation clarity and error handling
  • Localization and accessibility basics

5) Bonuses & Terms

  • Effective value after wagering caps & time limits
  • Contribution tables and excluded games
  • True cost of “free bets” and cash-out rules

6) Support & Fairness

  • Chat/email availability and SLA patterns
  • Dispute avenues and ADR presence
  • Historic complaints patterns (when available)

We update pages when terms, licences, payment options, or app features change.

Editorial independence & disclosures

  • Some outbound links are affiliate links. Commissions never influence our scoring or conclusions.
  • Writers and editors operate under a strict conflict-of-interest policy.
  • Fact-checking precedes publication; sensitive claims require primary sources (licence registers, ToS, or vendor docs).
  • Corrections and updates are documented in the page changelog where material.
