An independent review desk, established in London in 2026, publishing at ukcasinodesk.co.uk. We assess UKGC-licensed betting brands on verification, markets, withdrawals, support and safer-play tools.
No. We take no deposits and hold no customer funds. Betting happens only with the licensed operator.
Adults aged 18 or over who live in the United Kingdom. Under-18s should leave. It is a criminal offence for anyone under 18 to gamble in Great Britain.
People on the desk, from notes they collected. A second person reads the evidence before a page goes up. We do not paste operator marketing.
Five weighted areas: licensing, withdrawals, support, markets and pricing, and safer-play tools. Each comes from what we measured, then they combine into the figure on the page.
No. Commercial links exist and are disclosed. They do not change scores, order or wording.
Each filing takes weeks of real account work. Three evidenced assessments are worth more than a long list of summaries. The list grows when the desk can do the work.
Every filing links to the Gambling Commission public register. Confirm the company, the domain and that the status is active. The register beats any badge in a footer.
UK operators must verify age and identity, and they run anti-money-laundering checks. Finish that at registration so it does not sit on a later withdrawal.
A free scheme that blocks you from online operators licensed in Great Britain, for six months, one year or five years. It cannot be lifted early. Register at gamstop.co.uk.
Affiliate fees, explained on the disclosure page. Readers do not pay us.
If you write in, we keep your name, email and message so we can reply. We do not sell data or pass enquiries to operators. Records are deleted after twenty-four months. Email hello@ukcasinodesk.co.uk to ask for access, correction or deletion.
No. Prices include a margin, so the book is against the customer over time. Treat a stake as the cost of entertainment, never as an investment.
