Why SparkCasinoReview exists

Under the Gambling Act 2005, anyone offering online gambling to people in Great Britain must hold a licence from the UK Gambling Commission. SparkCasinoReview helps players tell licensed operators apart from unlicensed sites, and puts safer gambling first.

01

Licence checks

We check every account and licence number against the UK Gambling Commission public register before publishing a review.

02

Safer gambling first

Every review lists the deposit limits, time-outs, self-exclusion and GAMSTOP support an operator offers.

03

Full transparency

We disclose any commercial relationship with operators we mention. See our Disclosure page.
