UK Casino Desk reviews betting brands that hold a UK Gambling Commission licence. We fund the accounts ourselves, clock the withdrawals, and print the licence number next to the score. 18+ only.

Method

Four passes. Every brand takes all of them.

We use our own money, behave like an ordinary UK adult, and write down what happened. Brands do not see a filing before it is published.

Licence

We look the operator up on the Gambling Commission register and publish the account number.

Identity checks

We time age and identity checks, and note whether a deposit stays blocked until they finish.

Payout clock

Winning bets are timed to settlement. Withdrawals are timed from request to arrival. We publish the median.

Safer play tools

Deposit limits, loss limits, reality checks, time-outs, self-exclusion and GAMSTOP are tested, not assumed.

Before the first stake

Entertainment, with a price you choose first.

Gambling is not a plan to make money or to win a loss back. If it stops feeling like a night out, stop. Free, confidential help in the UK is open all night.

Set a deposit limit before the first payment. Every licensed UK brand must offer one, and it takes under a minute.
