What we publish

Stay at Casinos covers online casino and betting sites for players in Great Britain: top lists, operator reviews, bonus pages and plain-English guides to bet types, odds and gambling rules.

How we rank operators

  • UK lists only include operators found on the Gambling Commission public register with an active licence.
  • Every welcome offer shown in a UK list is taken from our offer database and checked against the 10x wagering cap that applies to UK bonuses.
  • An operator with no published offer figure is left out of the list.
  • Order also reflects commercial agreements: we earn a commission from some operators, and that affects which sites appear and where.

Right now 29 UK-licensed operators with a published offer are in our database.

How the site is funded

Stay at Casinos costs nothing to read. There is no paywall, no sponsored article and no display advertising. The budget for research, writing and hosting comes from a single source: affiliate commission paid by gambling operators.

Here is how it works. Buttons and links marked "Visit", and some brand names in our lists, count as affiliate links. Each one routes you through an address on stayatcasinos.com starting with /go/; that address hands you over to the operator with a tag showing that you came from us. Should you register there and, under some deals, fund the account or place bets, the operator may pay us. Payment takes the form of a fixed amount for each newly signed-up player, an ongoing slice of whatever that customer's play earns the operator over time, or both combined. Rates vary by deal and are confidential, but the principle stays the same.

  • You never pay us anything, and arriving through our link costs you no extra.
  • You get the same welcome offer as any other new customer; where an operator gives us an exclusive code, we label it as exclusive.
  • Your balance, deposits and results stay invisible to us. Operators send us aggregated figures only.

It would be dishonest to pretend commission has no effect on the site. It shapes who gets listed and at which rank, as noted in How we rank operators. It does not buy a place: an operator without an active licence on the Gambling Commission register, or without a published offer, stays out of our UK lists however much it would pay. Operators get no preview of, and no veto over, our reviews, and commission does not stop us from writing about slow payouts, restrictive bonus terms or poor support.

Not every brand we mention pays us. Some reviews and guides name operators we have no deal with, because leaving them out would give a lopsided picture of the market. When a commercial relationship ends, the review remains online and keeps being revised on its merits.

Some readers would rather not be tracked at all, and that is a fair choice. Type the casino's or bookmaker's web address straight into your browser instead of clicking through. The offer and your account will be identical; the only difference is that we earn nothing from that visit.

Commission also pays for things readers never see: re-checking licences, re-reading bonus terms when they change and keeping older reviews current. If an operator stops paying us, that work on its review continues. If we learn that an operator we list has lost its licence or treats customers unfairly, we remove it from our lists regardless of the agreement.
