Here at Casino Daily News we are always keen to make sure our casino reviews direct you to only the very best.
We stake our whole reputation on this, and so take great pride in, not only researching online casinos in the first instance, but also building up and maintaining good relations with operators once we’ve given our seal of approval – it’s a 2-way street after all.
Now, you could go and test casinos online for yourself, but this is fraught with risk, not to mention being particularly time consuming.
Fortunately our online casino list takes the hard work out of it, but at the same time caters for all the different casinos online, so as to allow for all tastes.
For instance if no-download sites are your game, we’ve got that covered. If you’re playing in Scandinavia and need Nordic-friendly gambling sites, again we can help you.
Quality is of the essence, but what does that mean?
Getting on our list of online casinos is not at all an easy task. We set very high standards and look at the essentials.
How do you get a casino online in the first place? Well, it has to be registered - but not just anywhere; somewhere with a tried and tested history in the online gaming sector, such as Malta, Gibraltar, or the Isle of Man, is about all we’ll look at…
Other questions to consider are: Is data security good enough? Which software providers power the site and games? What is the range of table games that this online casino review can tell you about? What payment methods are used?
Is that all our online casino reviews offer? Hell no! We’re just getting to the interesting part…
All our reviews of online casinos take into consideration what welcome bonuses and other promotions are offered. This is a huge part of choosing a casino online, and there are a lot of things to look at…
What are the wagering requirements (in other words, how many times do you have to ‘play through’ a welcome bonus before the money becomes yours to withdraw)? What other bonuses are on offer (some casinos online can be very generous indeed)? What other promos, competitions and tournaments can you expect?
And, as the man once said, there’s more … strong security, great games and generous bonuses are one thing but the sheen can certainly be taken off these plusses if an operator doesn’t have top drawer customer services.
That’s why all our online casino reviews look at ways to get in touch with a site. What types of customer service does the support section offer? Is there an FAQ section? Are there sitemaps or other guides? Are instructions on how to play individual games clear enough? How can players get in touch, including phone, email, social media and live chat? What is the response time to customer questions and, last but by no means least, how long does it take to withdraw winnings?
In short, you can be assured that all the best casinos are there – if it’s not on the list, it’s almost certainly not worth playing with.
Indeed in some cases we’d go as far as to recommend you steer well clear of certain operators, in particular Unibet, because quite frankly they fall down on most of the criteria as above, including poor customer services and, even more worryingly, a lack of willingness to pay out players’ legitimate winnings.
