Quick answers on sports betting, slots, bingo, and live casino — plus how we verify licensing.

Most asked questions

How do you check whether an operator is licensed?

We look up the operator’s company and brand on PAGCOR’s published lists of accredited operators and registered domains, not on a badge image on the casino’s own site. Our PAGCOR licence guide shows you how to do the same check in a few minutes.

Do you earn money from the links on this site?

Yes. Some links are affiliate links and we may earn a commission if you register. The “Play at Melbet” button in our header is a paid partner link; Melbet holds a Curaçao licence (no. 8048/JAZ2020-060), not a PAGCOR licence. Full details are in our affiliate disclosure.

What does RTP mean?

Return to player: the share of all money bet on a game that it pays back over a very long run. It says nothing about a single session. See RTP vs volatility.

What is a wagering requirement?

The amount you must bet before a bonus becomes withdrawable cash. It is the single most important term in any casino bonus. Read wagering requirements explained.

Which casino game gives the best odds?

Blackjack played with basic strategy (house edge around 0.5%) and the banker bet in baccarat (around 1.06%) are among the best. Keno is among the worst at 20–30%. Compare them in side bets ranked and keno odds.

Where can I get help if gambling stops being fun?
