About Us

Non Gamstop Casinos was set up for one straightforward reason: UK players who have self-excluded through Gamstop still search for other places to play, and there was very little independent, plain-English information to help them do it sensibly. This page explains who we are, what we do, and how we go about ranking the casinos you see on this site.

What we actually do

We research and compare online casinos that operate outside the Gamstop self-exclusion scheme. Most of these sites are licensed offshore, commonly in jurisdictions such as Curaçao, and they accept UK players even though they sit outside the UK Gambling Commission's framework. We look at the offers, the games, the banking options and the small print, then put that information into one place so readers don't have to trawl ten different sites to work out the basics.

We are not a gambling operator, we don't process deposits or withdrawals, and we don't offer betting advice. We're a comparison and information resource, nothing more.

How we rate and rank the casinos we list

Every brand on nationalpigeonassociation.co.uk is scored against the same checklist, so the ratings you see reflect consistent research rather than a gut feeling. We look at:

• Licensing and operating history of the casino
• The clarity and fairness of welcome offers and their wagering terms
• The range of slots, table games and live-dealer titles on offer
• Payment methods available to UK players, and stated withdrawal timescales
• How easy the site is to use, on desktop and mobile

Commercial relationships never decide position on this site. Some of the casinos we cover pay us a commission if a reader signs up through our links, and that funds the research we do — but it has no bearing on where a brand sits in our rankings or what we say about it. A high-paying operator with a poor offer or unclear terms will not outrank a smaller one with a cleaner welcome package.

A quick note on the sites we cover

Names such as Betmica, Kikibet and Betninja currently sit at the top of our rankings, largely because their welcome packages are clearly stated and their game libraries cover slots, table games and live-dealer rooms without excessive gatekeeping. Further down the list, brands like Zombillion, Smash Casino, Nightluck, CoinPoker, Rivo and Daytonaspin all bring their own mix of bonus structure and game selection — we cover the differences on our main comparison page rather than repeating them here.

Welcome offers change, and headline percentages always come with wagering requirements, minimum deposits and time limits attached. We list the offer as advertised by the operator, but we'd always encourage readers to check the current terms on the casino's own site before opting in.

Why some players look beyond Gamstop

Gamstop is a national self-exclusion scheme covering UK-licensed operators. Once someone registers, they're blocked from every site holding a UK Gambling Commission licence, and that block can't be lifted early. Casinos operating outside the UK licensing framework are not connected to Gamstop's database, which is why they remain accessible to players who have self-excluded. We report this as a fact of how the schemes are structured — we don't frame it as a workaround, and we don't suggest it suits everyone. For readers who want to understand self-exclusion in more depth, including how it differs from these offshore operators, our guide to non Gamstop casinos in the UK goes into more detail, and our responsible gambling page covers support options and how self-exclusion tools work more broadly.

What we won't do

We won't tell you gambling on an unregulated site carries no risk — it carries different risk to a UK-licensed one, chiefly around dispute resolution and consumer protection, and we say so where it's relevant. We also won't invent facts to fill space: if we don't have verified information on a payment method, a support hours, or a specific game count, we say what's generally true of the market rather than guessing at a brand's exact offering.

Questions, corrections or feedback

If you spot something out of date, have a correction, or just want to ask us something directly, our contact page has the details. We aim to keep information current, and reader feedback is one of the main ways we catch changes in offers, terms or game libraries before they go stale. Our terms and conditions set out the basis on which this site operates, including how we handle affiliate links.

Non Gamstop Casinos is intended for adults aged 18 and over. If you're unsure whether gambling, on any platform, is right for you at this time, our responsible gambling page is a good place to start before you look at any casino offer.
