About Us

Non Gamstop Casinos was set up for one straightforward reason: there wasn't a UK-focused resource that looked at casinos outside GAMSTOP with any real rigour. Most lists online are thin, recycled and light on detail. We wanted something more useful — a site that explains what these casinos actually offer, how they're licensed, and what a reader needs to check before signing up anywhere.

What we do

We research and compare casinos not on GAMSTOP for a UK audience. That means looking at operators licensed outside the UK Gambling Commission's remit — typically under Curaçao or other offshore authorities — and setting out plainly what they offer, what their bonus terms actually require, and where the practical differences lie between them and UKGC-regulated sites. You can see our current rankings and full write-ups on our non GAMSTOP casinos page.

Why readers come to a site like this

GAMSTOP is the UK's national self-exclusion scheme, and it's designed to help people restrict their access to gambling with UKGC-licensed operators. Some readers who have self-excluded still want accurate, honest information about casinos operating outside that scheme, and that's the gap we fill. We don't tell anyone whether they should or shouldn't play — that's a personal decision — but we do think that whoever is looking should have access to clear, factual comparisons rather than vague marketing copy.

We're also upfront about the other side of that decision. Self-exclusion exists for a reason, and readers who are unsure whether returning to any form of gambling is right for them can find balanced guidance on our responsible gambling page.

How we assess and rank casinos

Our ratings are built from a consistent set of checks across every operator we cover, including the ten sites currently featured on this site, such as Betmica, Kikibet and Betninja. We look at:

• Licensing and operational transparency, including which authority issued the licence and what terms are published
• The clarity and fairness of welcome offers — wagering requirements, maximum bonus caps, game restrictions and time limits
• The range of games on offer, from slots to live-dealer tables and other formats
• Payment methods available to UK players, including deposit and withdrawal speeds and any fees
• Site usability, customer support responsiveness, and how clearly terms and conditions are presented

Commission from any operator we link to does not influence position in our rankings. Editorial scores are assigned before commercial arrangements are considered, and we update listings when terms change or new information comes to light. Where a site has a genuine drawback — a high wagering requirement, a slow withdrawal process, or a narrow payment selection — we say so in the individual review rather than glossing over it.

What "not on GAMSTOP" actually means for research

Because these casinos sit outside UKGC oversight, the protections and dispute routes differ from those at a UK-licensed site. That doesn't make them illegitimate — many hold recognised offshore licences and operate transparently — but it does mean the onus is more on the player to read terms carefully, check payment provider legitimacy, and understand withdrawal conditions before depositing. Our reviews are built around helping readers do exactly that, rather than assuming every operator behaves identically.

Our standards for accuracy

We don't fabricate testing claims. Where we describe an offer, a payment method or a licensing detail, it's based on information published by the operator or verifiable through public sources, and we flag anywhere that terms are subject to change. Bonus terms, in particular, can shift quickly, so we recommend always checking the current terms on the operator's own site before relying on anything we've published — offers listed here carry conditions such as minimum deposits, wagering requirements and expiry windows that sit alongside the headline figure for exactly that reason.
