Sources we check
The operator's Terms & Conditions, Privacy, KYC and AML pages; the licence register of the regulator the operator names; company registries (e.g. Estonian e-Business Register); casino.guru, AskGamblers and Trustpilot; the operator's cashier and promotions pages at the time of review. Every review shows an "Updated" date; when we run a real deposit/withdrawal test we say so explicitly.
