About Us

Slots Not On Gamstop is an independent, research-based guide to casinos that operate outside GamStop, written for UK adults who want to understand what they are signing up to before they deposit. This page explains who the site is for, how we assess casinos, how we are funded and where our limits lie.

What this site does, and who it is for

We publish reviews and guides on casino bonuses, wagering requirements, payments, withdrawals, games, sports betting and player protection. Our readers are adults aged 18 and over, mostly in the UK, with very different levels of gambling knowledge. We explain terms such as wagering, KYC checks and withdrawal limits in plain English, without assuming you already know them.

We do not tell anyone that gambling is a way to make money or to solve money problems. It is paid entertainment, and you can lose what you stake.

How we are funded

Some links on this site lead to casinos, and we may earn commission if you register or deposit through them. That is how the site pays for itself. Commission does not buy position: ratings and rankings are set by our own assessment, and a higher payout to us would not move a casino up the list.

Our editorial ratings are our own judgement of the information we reviewed. They are not customer-review scores and should not be read as one.

How we assess casinos

Our work is desk research. We review casino websites, published terms and conditions, licensing information shown by each operator and other verifiable sources. We do not claim to have deposited, played or withdrawn money at any casino, and we do not present advertised speeds or limits as tested results. Where something is unconfirmed, we say so.

• Licensing and ownership: which overseas licence, if any, the casino displays, and whether the operator is clearly identified. Where we cannot confirm this, we flag it.
• Bonus terms: wagering requirements, game contribution, maximum bet while a bonus is active, expiry dates and cashout caps, read alongside the headline offer.
• Payments: whether GBP accounts are offered, deposit and withdrawal methods, minimum deposits, fees and currency conversion. We advise you to verify availability for UK customers rather than assume it.
• Withdrawals and verification: stated processing times, limits, identity and source-of-funds checks, and how disputes are handled.
• Games and betting: slots, live dealer and table games, software providers, and any sportsbook, including how casino and sports wallets work.
• Support and player protection: customer support channels, complaints procedures, and tools such as deposit and loss limits and self-exclusion.

Why the casinos on our lists are not on GamStop

GamStop is the UK's national self-exclusion scheme. Casinos licensed by the UK Gambling Commission must take part in it, which covers Great Britain. The casinos we feature hold overseas licences instead, so they are not linked to GamStop and are outside UK Gambling Commission oversight.

That has real consequences. A casino accepting British customers is not the same as being authorised to serve them. UK-style protections and complaints routes may not apply, and if you have registered with GamStop, you should not use these sites to get around your exclusion. If you need to stop or slow down, our responsible gambling page lists tools and support, including GamCare, and gambling-blocking software.

The casinos we currently feature

The publisher supplies our casino selections, and we review each one against the criteria above. At the time of our last check on 29 September 2026, the top of the list was Betmica, Kikibet, Betninja, WinnerIsland, Zombillion, Smash Casino, Nightluck, CoinPoker, Rivo and Daytonaspin. Their advertised offers can change and are casino advertising, not confirmed value. Always read the full terms, and note that some offers are stated in euros or dollars, so currency conversion may apply to a UK account.

Our full comparison is on the non GamStop casinos guide. For the rules that apply to using this site, see our terms and conditions.

Limits of what we can tell you

• We cannot guarantee that any casino will pay out, or that any withdrawal will be approved.
• No casino is completely safe, and an overseas licence does not give the protection a UK licence does.
• Terms change. Check the casino's current terms before you deposit.
• Payment methods, including cards and PayPal, vary by operator and country, so verify them for your account.

Corrections and contact

If you spot an error, an out-of-date offer or something we have not explained clearly, tell us through the contact page. We will review it and update the page where the evidence supports a change.

If gambling is causing you harm, GamCare offers free, confidential support, and you can self-exclude through GamStop at any time.
