Online Casino Operators

There are many online casinos, but how can you tell if it is a reputable casino or not? The decisive factor is of course the license. Nevertheless, you should also take a look at the operator behind the online casino. Sometimes it is also important to know which online casinos belong to the same operator. With the welcome bonus, it is often the case that you are entitled to this only once per casino of the same operator. So if you receive a welcome bonus for example in the 888 casino, you can no longer receive this in the associated 777 casino.

Where are the operators located?

You wonder why most online gambling operators are based in Malta or Gibraltar? In these two EU countries there is a comprehensive set of rules for online casinos. While online casinos in many European countries are legally still in a grey area, the authorities in Malta and Gibraltar issue official casino licenses. Almost all operators therefore have at least one branch in these two countries.

Which online casino operators are reputable?

The prerequisite for a reputable online casino is a valid license. You can find this at any reputable online casino in the footer section of the website. Make sure that you see the logo of the regulatory authority and that your name, address and license number are indicated. If you click on the logo of the regulatory authority, you can check whether the license is genuine. To find out which licenses are really trustworthy, see “Jurisdiction”.
