What Are Our Casino Guides?
Why Trust Our Casino Learning Hub?
WorstCasino exists to expose bad operators, which means we have zero incentive to sugarcoat anything. Our editorial team reviews dozens of casinos every month, and the patterns we find — withheld payments, misleading bonus terms, unresponsive support — feed directly into these guides. When we explain how to read wagering requirements or spot licensing red flags, we are drawing on real complaints from real players. That first-hand experience is something no generic "how to play" article can replicate.
Every guide is fact-checked against regulator databases, game-provider documentation, and our own testing. We update articles when rules change — because a KYC guide written in 2023 is not much help if the operator has since changed its verification threshold.
