About us

An independent take on UK casinos

We started Play Case List because most casino 'top lists' are sorted by who pays the most, and the reader is the one who pays for that. This is the version we wished existed.

Play Case Listis an independent comparison site for UK-licensed casino brands. We're not an operator, we're not a regulator, and we're not owned by any of the brands we write about. We don't run games, hold accounts or touch a penny of anyone's money — we review and compare, full stop.

What we actually do

We take a small set of licensed UK casinos and measure them against the same fixed criteria, with the fairness of their bonus terms weighted most heavily. Then we write up what the numbers mean in language a normal person can use. The aim is narrow on purpose: help you compare like with like and choose well, rather than dazzle you into clicking.

How we stay honest while being paid

Here's the bit other sites skate over. We make money through affiliate links — when a reader signs up through us, the operator pays a commission. The thing that keeps it clean is structure: that commission is paid on the same flat basis whichever brand you choose, so we gain nothing by pushing one over another. No operator can buy a higher score, a softer review or a better slot on the page. Where a brand is weak, we say so plainly, because a comparison you can't trust is worth nothing.

The short versionWe get paid when you sign up, but never more for sending you to one brand over another. The ranking follows the criteria, not the commission.

Where our role ends

We can't help with your account, a deposit, a withdrawal or a verification hold — we've no access to any operator's systems, and we'd be wary of anyone who claimed otherwise. For anything to do with your actual play, the operator is the right and only contact. Our job finishes the moment we've helped you compare.

A word on the subject

Gambling is entertainment with a real cost, not a way to make money, and we write about it that way throughout the site. Everyone listed here is licensed by the UK Gambling Commission, and every page carries the tools and links to step back if you need them. If that framing isn't what you're after, we're honestly not the site for you — and we'd rather say so than pretend.
