Every casino we have reviewed, in one table, from best to worst. All thirty-one of them — including the ones we tell you to avoid, and the ones that pay us commission while we do it.
Most review sites publish their winners. The list of brands they rated badly is harder to find, because it is commercially inconvenient. So here is ours in full, and the number that matters most in it: 27 of these 31 casinos have an affiliate relationship with us — including all four of the lowest-rated. We rate 1xBet 2.0 and open its review with “we do not recommend 1xBet”. The affiliate link is live on that page anyway, because the rating reflects the evidence and not the deal.
Last updated: 3 September 2026. Ratings change when the evidence changes. Each row links to the full review, where the reasoning is set out with sources.
4.0 and Above: Worth Your Deposit
Ten casinos. What they share is a documented payout record rather than a big bonus — that is the factor we weight above everything else.
| Casino | Rating | Why it sits there |
|---|---|---|
| Bovada | 4.7 | Largest and longest-running US-facing offshore casino; casino, sportsbook and poker on one wallet |
| Rainbet | 4.5 | 7,000+ games and fast crypto payouts — held back by a light Anjouan licence and a 2025 launch with no long record |
| BetOnline | 4.4 | Taking US bets since 2001, longer than any rival still operating; verified $90,000+ crypto payouts |
| Stake | 4.4 | Biggest crypto casino in the world, elite payout speed — but Curaçao-only, shut out of every regulated market, and a 100% deposit-wagering rule most players miss |
| Ignition | 4.3 | Strongest US offshore poker room; the only welcome bonus on our site that reaches break-even value |
| Cafe Casino | 4.2 | Slots-first with crypto banking; the two-track bonus gives crypto depositors a materially better deal than card users |
| Slots.lv | 4.1 | Curaçao-licensed, crypto-focused, solid library — the welcome bonus is among the worst value we calculated |
| Roobet | 4.0 | Value is in ongoing rakeback rather than a deposit match, which suits regular players and nobody else |
| Wild Casino | 4.0 | The crypto specialist: 17+ coins, BTC out in under 24 hours, $100,000 per-transaction ceiling |
| WinSpirit | 4.0 | Practical crypto-friendly option for North America with a $20 minimum; no sportsbook |
3.4 to 3.9: Fine With Caveats
Thirteen casinos, and the caveats are the point. Most are here because something specific drags them down — a punishing bonus, a thin library, a withdrawal cap — not because they are unsafe.
| Casino | Rating | The caveat |
|---|---|---|
| BetUs | 3.9 | Running since 1994 and crypto-friendly, but the wagering deadlines are tight |
| SportsBetting.ag | 3.8 | Literally the same casino product as BetOnline — same games, same payouts, different front door |
| Super Slots | 3.8 | Reliable Bitcoin payouts undercut by a $2,500 daily and $5,000 weekly withdrawal cap |
| Red Dog | 3.8 | Fast crypto and no withdrawal fees, but RTG-only games, a $150 minimum, and the worst-value bonus we calculated |
| Grand Mondial | 3.6 | Strongest Mega Moolah entry of the Casino Rewards group — and still a 200x welcome requirement |
| Spin Casino | 3.6 | Malta licence and eCOGRA audits; 550+ Microgaming titles is a narrow library by 2026 standards |
| JackpotCity | 3.6 | Operating since 1998 under Malta oversight with smooth Interac banking |
| Captain Cooks | 3.5 | 25-year audited veteran and the cheapest jackpot entry we list; the 200x wagering is brutal |
| Ruby Fortune | 3.5 | Strong credentials (MGA, Kahnawake, Ontario) undone by ~70x bonus wagering and a below-average recent payout record |
| Luxury Casino | 3.5 | Same library and licence as its three Casino Rewards siblings, in a premium wrapper |
| Quatro | 3.4 | 700 free spins over seven days, and a 200x requirement that makes the bonus near-impossible to clear |
| Yukon Gold | 3.4 | Real jackpot winners and a low entry price; thin library, 200x wagering |
| RocketPlay | 3.4 | 7,000+ games from 80+ studios and fast withdrawals, under a Curaçao licence since 2020 |
Below 3.4: Where We Start Warning You
Eight casinos. From here down the problem stops being a bad bonus and starts being whether you get paid, or whether anyone can tell you who runs the site. Every one of these has an affiliate link on our page. Every one of them is still rated where the evidence puts it.
| Casino | Rating | The problem |
|---|---|---|
| 20Bet | 3.3 | The “100% up to €120” is hollowed out by 40x wagering, excluded table games, a €5 max bet and a €10,000 win cap |
| 1win | 3.2 | Big, fast on crypto, deep library — and a complaint pattern serious enough that we do not recommend it |
| MyBookie | 3.0 | Convenient sports-plus-casino account; $5,000 withdrawal ceiling, no card withdrawals, Michigan cease-and-desist |
| Vox | 2.9 | 6,000+ slots and a big welcome, against 39 Casino Guru complaints, a “Doubtful” flag, and withdrawals held under repeated “account review” |
| SpinBetter | 2.8 | Ownership and licensing are not cleanly documented anywhere. For a casino, that opacity is itself the finding |
| Winnita | 2.5 | Licence claims that don’t check out, undisclosed ownership, Trustpilot 2.2/5 with 41% one-star, and 10–30% withdrawal fees |
| NV Casino | 2.5 | Thousands of games and advertised crypto payouts, against Trustpilot 1.7/5 and serious open complaints |
| 1xBet | 2.0 | A huge, functioning operator with a documented regulatory record we steer players away from. We do not recommend it |
What the Distribution Tells You
Thirty-one casinos, and the shape of the list is itself information.
Nothing scores above 4.7, and nothing scores 5. There is no perfect offshore casino, because the category has a structural ceiling: no US regulator stands behind any of them, so the best available outcome is a strong payout record rather than actual recourse. Any site handing out 5/5 to an offshore brand is not using the same scale.
The middle is crowded and the reasons repeat. Thirteen casinos sit between 3.4 and 3.9, and the same three things put them there: punishing bonus wagering, a thin game library, or a withdrawal cap. Very few of them are unsafe. Most are simply worse deals than they look.
Brand size predicts nothing. 1xBet is one of the largest gambling operators on earth and sits at the bottom of our list. Stake is the biggest crypto casino in the world and scores 4.4, not 5. Rainbet has 7,000 games and loses points for a light licence and no track record. Scale is not safety.
How the Ratings Are Built
Six factors, and they are not weighted equally. Whether an operator actually pays carries more weight than everything else combined, because a casino that does not pay makes every other feature irrelevant. After that: licence and disclosed ownership, honestly costed bonus value, game library and software, complaint patterns from named third-party databases, and responsible-gambling tools.
The full weighting is in our review methodology, and two of the inputs have their own reference pages: real bonus value compared, where we calculate what every welcome offer is actually worth, and withdrawal limits compared, where we set out the caps that decide whether a big win reaches your account.
The Monkey’s Take
Publishing this table costs us money. Four of the eight casinos in the bottom section pay us commission, and a page that tells you 1xBet is a 2.0 and Winnita hides its ownership will send fewer people through those links than a page that doesn’t.
We publish it because a rating you cannot check against the rater’s own bad calls is worth nothing. If a review site only ever shows you its winners, you have no way to know whether the winners were chosen on evidence or on commission. The bottom of this list is the only proof that the top of it means anything.
Use it accordingly: start from the rating, read the reason, then run the checks yourself before you deposit — our 12 red flags takes five minutes and works on any casino, including the ones we haven’t reviewed.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which casino do you rate highest?
Bovada, at 4.7 out of 5 - the largest and longest-running US-facing offshore casino, combining casino, sportsbook and poker on one wallet. Nothing on our list scores 5, because no offshore casino has a US regulator standing behind it, so the best available outcome is a strong payout record rather than actual recourse.
Which casinos do you rate lowest, and why?
1xBet at 2.0, then Winnita and NV Casino at 2.5 and SpinBetter at 2.8. The reasons are the serious ones rather than bad bonuses: a documented regulatory record we steer players away from in 1xBet's case, undisclosed ownership and licence claims that do not check out for Winnita, a Trustpilot score of 1.7 out of 5 for NV, and ownership and licensing that are not documented anywhere for SpinBetter.
Do you rate casinos badly even when they pay you commission?
Yes, and the table proves it. 27 of the 31 casinos we rate have an affiliate relationship with us, including all four of the lowest-rated. We rate 1xBet 2.0 and open its review with the words we do not recommend 1xBet. The affiliate link is live on that page anyway, because the rating reflects the evidence and not the commercial deal.
How do you decide a casino rating?
Six factors, unequally weighted. Whether the operator actually pays carries more weight than everything else combined, because a casino that does not pay makes every other feature irrelevant. Then licence and disclosed ownership, honestly costed bonus value, game library and software, complaint patterns from named third-party databases such as Casino Guru and Trustpilot, and responsible-gambling tools.
Why does no casino score 5 out of 5?
Because the category has a structural ceiling. No US regulator stands behind an offshore casino, so even the best of them offers a documented payout record rather than a complaint path that can compel payment. A site awarding 5 out of 5 to an offshore brand is not using the same scale.
Does a big casino brand mean it is safe?
No, and our list is the counter-example. 1xBet is one of the largest gambling operators in the world and sits at the bottom of our ratings. Stake is the biggest crypto casino anywhere and scores 4.4 rather than 5. Rainbet has more than 7,000 games and loses points for a light Anjouan licence and no long track record. Scale is not safety.
