Rating methodology
Last reviewed: 2026-01-01. Applied to every operator. Operators cannot pay for a higher score.
The BettorRank Score (0-100)
Each crypto casino we review receives a BettorRank Score on a 0-100 scale, computed from six weighted criteria:
| Criterion | Weight | What we measure |
|---|---|---|
| Safety & Licensing | 25% | Active license jurisdiction, license number verified against regulator's registry, parent company transparency, ownership disclosure. |
| Payments & Withdrawal Speed | 20% | Number of supported crypto methods, withdrawal latency we tested first-hand (with on-chain TX hash as proof), withdrawal limits, KYC threshold. |
| Games & Provably-Fair | 20% | Game count, provably-fair availability, provider diversity, live dealer coverage, sportsbook depth (where applicable). |
| Bonuses & Wagering | 15% | Welcome bonus value relative to industry average, wagering requirement, game contribution rules, bonus expiry, max cashout caps. |
| UX & Mobile | 10% | Mobile-first responsiveness, native app availability, load times, deposit/withdrawal friction. |
| Support & Reputation | 10% | Live chat availability + response time, support quality (we ask 3 standard questions and time the answers), unresolved complaints on AffiliateGuardDog / AskGamblers / Reddit. |
Withdrawal Speed Tests
For every casino we review, an editor makes a small real-money deposit, plays for at least 30 minutes, then requests a withdrawal. We record the exact time the withdrawal arrives at our wallet and publish the transaction hash so anyone can verify on-chain. No competitor we're aware of does this consistently for every operator on their site.
What disqualifies a casino
- License revoked or expired (verified by checking the regulator's public registry within 30 days of publication)
- Confirmed unresolved player complaints on AffiliateGuardDog flagged "PREDATORY"
- Retroactive T&C changes that void prior commissions or player winnings
- Inability to verify ownership or licensing within 14 days of outreach
Refresh cycle
Every review is re-checked on a 30-day cycle. Bonus terms, payment method support, license status, and complaint history are re-verified. The "Last Updated" date at the top of every review reflects the most recent full re-check, not just a typo fix.
Conflict of interest
We earn affiliate revenue when readers click through our links and register with a casino. This does not influence the rating. Rankings are computed before affiliate relationships are considered. If we drop or fail to recommend a casino, we still maintain the affiliate relationship in case the operator's score recovers - but the page reflects the lower score honestly.
Independence
No casino, affiliate network, or operator has read this methodology before publication. No casino has the ability to request edits, removals, or score adjustments. Disputes are handled publicly on the editorial policy page.
