Seventeen comparisons and explainers, each one narrower than the main roster. Start here when you already know roughly what you want and need the page for it.

The brands this section covers

Every operator written about anywhere in this section, gathered in one place so a reader arriving from a search result does not have to go hunting. What sits on a card is what can be established from outside it.

21 brands, listed alphabetically. The order carries no judgement, and nothing on these cards is a rating.

What the licence register actually says

Most of this field licenses in one jurisdiction, so the state of that register is not a detail. These are its own figures, counted from the file it publishes rather than from anyone's summary of it.

Entries in the Curacao online gaming licence register by status, counted 2026-08-18
Status in the register Entries Share What it means
Dated and current 87 13.2% Carried an expiry date still in the future when the file was read on 2026-08-18: the earliest falling due 2026-08-20, the latest 2027-02-26. Some will have lapsed since.
Assessment in progress 290 43.9% Filed under the policy in force since 2023-11-15 and not yet concluded. The largest class in the file.
Indefinite 205 31% Transitional entries carried over from the earlier regime, recorded with no expiry date at all.
Expired 32 4.8% The expiry date has passed. The most recent lapsed on 2025-12-27; the entry stays in the file.
Revoked 47 7.1% All 47 at the operator's own request, effective between 2024-02-06 and 2026-08-14. The entry stays in the file, which is what makes it checkable.
All entries 661 100% 569 of them address players directly; 92 are supplier permissions. Only 34 carry the current policy's own prefix, so the file is still mostly transitional.

The enforcement register, same authority

30 of 31

entries recorded as revoked, with effective dates running from 2024-06-11 to 2026-07-10. A revoked licence stays listed, which is the useful part: a number that once appeared in a footer can be checked against this file rather than taken on trust.

Counted from the authority's own register, last updated by it on 2026-08-14 and read on 2026-08-18. The register is published here.

Where a licence can be checked

Four authorities come up repeatedly in this category. What separates them here is not their reputation but something plainer: whether a reader can open the register and look.

Licensing authorities and whether their register could be reached
Authority Register What is there
Curacao Gaming Authority Published Publishes the full licence list and a separate enforcement register as dated documents. Entries name companies, never brands. Open it.
Malta Gaming Authority Published Runs a searchable licensee register. Rarely the authority behind a crypto-first brand, and the difference in obligations is the point. Open it.
Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority Published Publishes a public register and a licence verification page. A newer destination for brands that previously licensed elsewhere. Open it.
Gaming Curacao Behind a login A master licence portal from the earlier structure. Its licensing site sits behind a login, so nothing can be checked from outside.

Each register address was requested directly on 2026-08-18; the state above is what answered.

Four checks, and why these four

A crypto casino can be judged on dozens of things. Most are either identical across the field or unreadable from outside, and a criterion that returns the same answer for every operator is not a criterion. Four survive that filter. Each is answered by a document the operator published rather than by a claim it made in marketing, which also means each is answered on the operator's own pages and not on this one.

That distinction is why nothing here is scored. Reading those documents requires reaching the operator, and the public licence register lists the companies that hold licences rather than the brands that trade under them, so a brand cannot be resolved to its entry from outside either. What follows is a set of instructions rather than a verdict, in the order worth running them.

Running the four checks yourself

Each one is answerable in a couple of minutes on the operator's own site. The failure modes in the last column are worth more than the successes: a bad answer has a recognisable shape, and it is usually the shorter of the two.

Each check, where the answer is found, and how a good and a bad answer differ
Check Where it is answered A good answer A bad answer
Licence That the licence number resolves Footer or terms, then the authority's own register A number that appears in the register, against a company named in the same terms. A badge image linking nowhere, or a number with no matching entry. Treat that as no licence.
Payout When funds are released, and when they are held Terms, under withdrawals or account review A stated processing window, and a bounded list of reasons a review can be opened. An open-ended right to review any withdrawal at the operator's discretion, with no window.
Fairness Whether a provably fair claim has tooling behind it The game page or a fairness section A hashed server seed published before the round, a client seed you can set, a verifier after. The phrase on its own. Without a verifier there is nothing to verify, and it is a marketing line.
Exit What leaving costs Cashier page, plus the terms on minimums Network fee, conversion spread and withdrawal minimum each stated as a figure. A fast payout promise with the spread unstated. Speed is not the same as being paid in full.

What a bonus figure is doing on this page

Nowhere, and the reason is arithmetic rather than principle. A headline percentage attached to a high wagering multiple is worth less than a smaller offer with a low one, so comparing two banners compares numbers that do not mean the same thing. Quoting them side by side would manufacture a comparison instead of reporting one.

An offer is only readable with its wagering requirement and its expiry beside it, and those live in the terms rather than on the banner. That is where to read them, in the operator's own wording. If an operator states an offer without stating the requirement anywhere, the absence is itself the finding, and it is one a reader can make in under a minute.

What the four checks use

  • Licensing authority and whether the number resolves
  • Withdrawal release: automatic or held for review
  • Whether a working fairness verifier exists
  • Network fee, spread and withdrawal minimum

What it deliberately ignores

  • Headline bonus size, which is a function of the wagering multiple
  • Catalogue size, which is near-identical across the field
  • Interface quality, which changes with every redesign
  • Loyalty tiers, which are unmeasurable from outside an account

Reading a narrower list

The pages below each answer a smaller question than the roster does. What matters for stablecoin settlement is not what matters for anonymous play, and an operator can suit one question and not the other. Each page states the criterion its question turns on, and where the answer to it is published.

Two of them are not comparisons at all. The red-flags page and the responsible-gambling guide exist because the most useful thing this section can do for some readers is help them decide not to deposit, and a site that only ever points toward a sign-up button is not much use for that.

What people ask before choosing an operator

Why is nothing here ranked?

Because an order would have to rest on figures that cannot be read from outside an operator, and the public licence register lists holder companies rather than brand names, so a brand cannot be traced to its entry from here either. The roster is alphabetical and says so on the page. What replaces the ranking is the part that was always doing the work: what the settlement network decides, what the register contains, and the four checks a reader can run in a few minutes.

Do you take money from the brands listed?

Yes, a commission when a reader opens an account through a link here. There is no order for it to affect, which is a plainer guarantee than any promise of independence: a commission cannot buy a position on a list that does not rank. The disclosure sits in the footer of every page rather than in small print at the bottom of this one.

How current are the figures on this page?

The register counts carry the date they were read, and the authority stamps its own file with the date it last updated it; both are printed beside the table rather than left implied. The network constants do not go stale, which is much of why they were chosen. Nothing here is re-dated on a schedule, because a fresh date over unchanged findings is a claim about freshness that nothing behind it supports.

Which page should I start with if I am new?

What a crypto casino is, then the red-flags page. Those two answer the questions that come before choosing an operator, and reading them first makes the comparisons interpretable rather than just orderable.
