Review methodology

Every casino on SafeBet is scored across 74 data points grouped into six categories, weighted by player impact.

1. Licensing (20%)

We verify the license number, regulator, and complaint history. Tier-1 licenses (UKGC, MGA, GGL, Kahnawake) earn full credit; Curacao licenses score lower and require supporting evidence.

2. Payouts (25%)

We deposit and withdraw real funds. Payout speed, identity verification timelines, withdrawal limits, and fees are all measured.

3. Bonuses (15%)

We read every bonus T&C. Wagering requirements above 40x, game contribution caveats, and sticky bonuses cost points.

4. Games & RTP (15%)

We check RTP disclosure, provider mix, live dealer quality, and independent RNG audit certificates.

5. Customer support (10%)

We send test tickets via every available channel and measure response time, knowledge, and tone.

6. Responsible gambling (15%)

We test deposit limits, cool-off periods, self-exclusion, reality checks, and links to local helplines.

Editorial independence

SafeBet may earn a commission when readers sign up through outbound links. Commissions never influence editorial scoring. A casino ranked #1 is never bumped for payment.

Re-scoring schedule

Every recommendation is re-scored quarterly and immediately on licensing changes, major incidents, or bonus restructures.
