About Us

Non Gamstop Casinos is an independent research and comparison site covering Curaçao casinos not on GamStop for readers in Great Britain. This page explains who produces the content, how the rankings on donesmart.com are put together, where our money comes from, and — just as importantly — which claims we can verify and which we cannot.

We are not a casino, a bookmaker or a payment provider. We do not accept deposits, hold funds or run promotions. We read terms and conditions, check licence registers, compare bonus wagering rules and write up what we find in plain British English.

How we are funded, and what that does not buy

Some links on this site are commercial. If you open an account with an operator after following one, we may receive a commission from that operator. That is how the site pays for itself.

Commission does not buy position. An operator cannot pay to be ranked higher, cannot pay to have a limitation removed from its write-up, and cannot review our copy before publication. Where an operator pays us nothing, we will still cover it if it is relevant. Where we cannot confirm something an operator advertises, we say so rather than repeating it as fact.

What "not on GamStop" actually means here

GamStop is the free self-exclusion scheme that every operator licensed by the UK Gambling Commission to serve customers in Great Britain must be signed up to. Register with GamStop and those operators must block you for the exclusion period you choose — six months, one year or five years.

Casinos not on GamStop sit outside that system because they do not hold a Gambling Commission licence. Many of the sites we cover are licensed in Curaçao. A Curaçao licence is a real authorisation in its own jurisdiction, but it is not a Gambling Commission licence, and accepting British customers is not the same as being authorised to serve them. That distinction matters more than anything else on this page.

What it means for you in practice:

• You are outside the Gambling Commission's consumer protections, including its rules on advertising, bonus fairness and complaints handling.
• The UK's independent alternative dispute resolution routes do not apply. Disputes go through the operator, then its Curaçao licensing body.
• Deposit limits, loss limits and reality checks may be offered voluntarily, but they are not guaranteed to the UK standard.
• If you are registered with GamStop, these sites will not enforce that exclusion. If you excluded yourself for a reason, our responsible gambling guidance is the more useful page.

Everyone using the operators we cover must be 18 or over. Nothing here is advice to gamble, and gambling is not a way to make money or fix a financial problem.

How we research and rank a casino

There is no secret formula. We work through the same checks on every site, in the same order, and our editorial rating reflects the balance of what we find. These are editorial scores set by us, not customer review averages and not a measure of how likely you are to win.

1. Licence and ownership. We look for the licensing jurisdiction, the licence number and the company named in the terms. Where ownership is opaque or the licence details cannot be matched to a register, we note it.
2. Bonus terms, not bonus headlines. A 600% headline means little until you read the wagering multiple, whether it applies to bonus alone or deposit plus bonus, the maximum bet while a bonus is active, the expiry window and any cap on what you can withdraw from bonus winnings.
3. Game contribution. Slots usually count 100% towards wagering; roulette, blackjack and baccarat often count 10% or less, and some tables and live-dealer rooms are excluded entirely.
4. Payments for UK customers. Whether GBP accounts are offered, which deposit and withdrawal methods are actually available to British players, and what conversion or processing fees appear in the terms.
5. Withdrawals. Stated processing times, daily, weekly and monthly limits, and how KYC and source-of-funds checks are described.
6. Games and providers. The breadth of slots, progressive jackpots, live dealer tables and any sportsbook, plus which studios supply them.
7. Support and complaints. Contact channels, published hours, and whether a written complaints procedure and escalation route exist.

We research and verify. We do not claim to have deposited, played or withdrawn at these sites, and you should treat any advertised payout speed as the operator's claim rather than a measured result. Findings are checked periodically; the checks behind this page were last reviewed on 23 September 2026, and terms can change without notice, so always read the current version on the operator's own site.

Three of the operators we cover, and where each one falls short

Our full comparison sits on the non GamStop casinos ranking. The write-ups below are here to show how we treat an offer: headline first, conditions beside it, limitation last.

Betmica — our highest-rated listing

Betmica tops our table with an editorial rating of 10.0, largely because it combines the largest advertised welcome package we currently list with a broad slots-led lobby. The advertised offer is 570% up to £5,700 plus 270 free spins, quoted in pounds, which removes the conversion question that trips up UK players at euro-denominated sites.

The limitation is the offer itself. A multi-tier package of that size almost always carries a high wagering multiple, a low maximum bet while the bonus is live and a cap on bonus-derived withdrawals. Confirm all three before depositing — the headline figure is the least important number in the terms.

Kikibet — a large package with the same sterling caveat

Kikibet rates 9.9 and advertises 350% up to £5,555 with 300 free spins. It earns its place for pairing a sterling-quoted bonus with a sizeable free-spin allocation, which suits players who want to spread a first deposit across a lot of slot sessions rather than chase one large balance.

The drawback: free spins are typically restricted to named titles, carry their own wagering terms and often expire in daily tranches. Spins you do not use inside the window are simply gone, so the advertised 300 is a ceiling rather than a number to plan around.

Betninja — the simplest headline on our list

Betninja also rates 9.9 and takes a different approach: a flat £1,000 bonus and 100 free spins for all new players, rather than a percentage stack. Fixed offers are easier to read against your own budget, because the amount you would need to deposit to reach the maximum is not buried in a multiplier.

The trade-off is upside. Players making a small first deposit will unlock far less here than a high-percentage package would return, and "all new players" still depends on country eligibility and a minimum deposit — check both before you register.

All offers are as advertised by the operator and subject to its terms, minimum deposit, eligibility and wagering conditions. Euro and dollar figures are illustrative for UK readers: if your account is not held in sterling, your bank or card issuer may apply a conversion charge on every deposit and withdrawal.

Money in, money out — what we check on payments

Costs start with the minimum deposit, which commonly sits around £10 to £20 and sometimes higher on the larger bonus tiers. There is no charge for reading our comparisons; the only money involved is what you choose to deposit, and it is at risk.

• Debit cards. The usual UK route and normally instant on deposit. Credit cards are banned for gambling in Great Britain, and many offshore sites decline UK-issued cards outright.
• E-wallets. Often the quickest withdrawal route where supported. PayPal is rarely available at offshore casinos — treat its presence as something to verify, never to assume.
• Bank transfer. Widely accepted for larger withdrawals, usually the slowest, and the most likely to attract a fee or a minimum amount.
• Prepaid vouchers. Useful for deposit control, but they generally cannot receive a withdrawal, so you will need a second method to be paid out.
• Cryptocurrency. Common at Curaçao-licensed sites and typically fast, with network fees and exchange-rate movement replacing bank charges. It also sits outside UK card-payment protections.

On the way out, expect identity verification before a first withdrawal — photo ID, proof of address, and sometimes proof of payment method. Larger or unusual balances can trigger source-of-funds checks. Daily, weekly and monthly withdrawal caps are common and matter enormously if you win a large amount from a bonus. Stated processing times are the operator's claim; the verification step, not the payment rail, is usually what determines how long you actually wait.

What is on offer at the sites we cover

The lobbies behind these brands are slots-first, and our coverage reflects that. Broadly, you will find:

• Slots — the bulk of every library, spanning low-volatility games that pay small and often and high-volatility titles that do the opposite. Published RTP figures are the long-run average across millions of spins, not a guide to any session.
• Progressive jackpots — pooled prize games where a slice of every stake feeds the top prize. Some bonus terms exclude them from wagering.
• Table games — blackjack, roulette and baccarat in digital form, usually with low or zero contribution to bonus wagering.
• Live dealer rooms — streamed tables with human croupiers and higher minimum stakes, frequently excluded from bonus play entirely.
• Mobile play — most of these sites run in a mobile browser rather than through an app, which keeps the full lobby available without a download.

Sportsbooks alongside the casino

Several operators in this space run a sportsbook and an esports book next to the casino, often on a shared wallet so one balance covers both. The betting mechanics differ from casino play in ways worth understanding: pre-match and in-play markets, accumulators, bet builders and cash-out all behave differently from a slot spin, and sports free bets carry their own conditions — most often minimum qualifying odds such as 1.50 or 2.00 in decimal terms, plus a rule on whether the stake is returned with any winnings. A shared wallet also means a casino bonus may lock funds you intended to bet with, so check whether wagering can be cleared across both products or only one.

Safer gambling, and where to get help

We will not describe any casino as completely safe, and we cannot guarantee that a withdrawal will be paid. What we can do is tell you what protections exist and what does not.

If you want to step back, GamStop covers Gambling Commission-licensed sites only. Blocking software installed on your own devices works regardless of where a site is licensed, and your bank may allow you to switch on a gambling transaction block. GamCare runs the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, free and open 24 hours a day. Our responsible gambling page sets out the options in more detail.

Who writes this and how to reach us

Editorial content on Non Gamstop Casinos is produced and maintained by Peter Radcliffe, writing as a consumer editor rather than on behalf of any operator. Where a fact is unconfirmed, we label it as unconfirmed. Where an operator's marketing conflicts with its own terms, we go with the terms.

If something here is out of date, if a bonus condition has changed, or if you think we have a site wrong, tell us through the contact page and we will recheck it. The terms of use cover how this site may be used.

A sensible next step: pick one operator from our comparison, open its bonus terms in a second tab, and read the wagering multiple, the maximum bet and the withdrawal cap before you go any further. If those three numbers do not suit you, no headline percentage will fix it.
