Get in Touch With Us
This page tells you how to reach the editorial team behind Non Gamstop Casinos, what we can realistically help with, and what we cannot. Most messages we receive concern Curaçao casinos not on GamStop — usually a bonus condition that was not clear, a withdrawal that is taking longer than expected, or a detail on one of our pages that a reader believes has changed. Those are exactly the messages we want.
Write to us at [email protected]. We read everything and reply from a real address, not an autoresponder.
How our coverage is funded, and what that means for your message
We may earn commission when a reader opens an account with a casino listed on this site. That funding does not decide rank order, wording or ratings, and it does not change how we handle a complaint about a brand we list. If you contact us about a site we recommend and the facts support you, we update the page. Ratings on merseysidedogshome.org are editorial judgements from desk research, not customer-review scores and not the result of us depositing or playing anywhere.
What to include so we can actually help
- The casino name as it appears on your account, plus the page on this site you were reading.
- Dates in UK format (for example 14/03/2026) and amounts in the currency your account is held in.
- The exact bonus or promotion name, and the wagering requirement figure you were shown.
- Screenshots of terms, chat transcripts or emails, if you have them.
- What the casino has already told you, and what you are asking us to check.
We aim to answer within two working days. Corrections that require us to re-verify terms against a casino's own published pages can take longer, and we would rather be slow than wrong.
The queries we get most about Curaçao-licensed sites
Licensing and who may play
Casinos not on GamStop are not licensed by the UK Gambling Commission. GamStop is the free self-exclusion scheme for operators licensed to serve Great Britain; a Curaçao-licensed casino sits outside that scheme and outside the UKGC's consumer rules, so UKGC dispute resolution, deposit-limit rules and advertising standards do not apply. Accepting British customers is not the same as being authorised to serve them — it is worth keeping that distinction in mind when you weigh up an offer.
Curaçao's regime has been reorganised under its Gaming Authority, with operators moving from the older master-licence model to direct licences. If you ask us whether a specific brand holds a current, verifiable licence, we will tell you what its own site and public registers show and say plainly where we cannot confirm it. Everyone playing must be 18 or over. If you are registered with GamStop and are within an active exclusion period, the responsible step is not to open accounts elsewhere — see the support section below.
Bonus terms and wagering
Headline percentages are the least useful number in any offer. The conditions that decide whether a bonus is worth taking are the wagering requirement and whether it applies to bonus only or deposit plus bonus, the game contribution rates (slots typically count fully, roulette, blackjack and baccarat far less or not at all), the maximum bet allowed while a bonus is live, the expiry date, and any cap on what you can cash out from bonus winnings. A 570% match with a 50x deposit-and-bonus requirement can be harder to clear than a modest 100% match at 30x on bonus alone.
A worked example: deposit £50, take a 250% match for £125 in bonus funds, and a 40x bonus-only requirement means £5,000 of qualifying stakes before a withdrawal is possible. At £1 a spin on slots contributing 100%, that is 5,000 spins. If the same terms cap bonus withdrawals at 5x the bonus, the most you can take out is £625 regardless of what you win. If a page of ours states a figure that no longer matches the casino's current terms, send it over.
Payments, GBP accounts and currency conversion
Many offshore casinos price in euros or dollars. Where a welcome package is quoted in euros, as WinnerIsland's and Smash Casino's are, and CoinPoker's in dollars, a UK debit card payment usually involves a conversion and possibly a bank fee. Ask the casino directly whether a true GBP wallet is available before depositing, and check the deposit and withdrawal minimums, any processing fee, and stated payout windows. PayPal is rarely available at non-UKGC sites, so do not assume it. Cryptocurrency deposits are common on this side of the market and move quickly, but they carry exchange-rate risk and are not reversible.
Withdrawals, KYC and disputes
Almost every delayed-payout message we receive traces back to identity verification. Expect to supply photo ID, a recent proof of address, and — for larger sums or unusual patterns — source-of-funds evidence such as payslips or bank statements. Completing this before you request a withdrawal saves days. If a casino holds a payout without explanation, ask for the specific clause it is relying on, in writing. Without a UKGC licence there is no UK ombudsman route; any alternative dispute resolution is whatever the operator's own licence conditions provide, which is why we ask readers to tell us when a brand goes quiet.
Three listings readers ask about most
These are the brands that generate the most correspondence, so here is what we can and cannot tell you about each. Full context sits on our Trusted Non GamStop Casinos UK 2026 comparison.
Betmica — top ranked, biggest headline number
Betmica sits at the top of our list with a 10.0 editorial rating, largely because its slots range and welcome structure are the ones readers ask about most and its terms pages are reasonably legible. The advertised offer is 570% up to £5,700 plus 270 free spins for new players, quoted in pounds, which removes one layer of conversion guesswork. The limitation is the offer itself: a match of that size almost always carries a heavy wagering requirement, tight maximum bet rules and a cap on bonus winnings, and the free spins usually attach to named slots with their own expiry. Read the promotion page before depositing, and message us if the figures there differ from ours.
Kikibet — GBP-denominated package, thinner public detail
Kikibet is here on a 9.8 rating for a 350% match up to £5,555 with 300 free spins, again in sterling. Readers contact us about it mainly to ask how the free spins release — in daily tranches or all at once — since that changes how fast the expiry clock matters. Our reservation is that public documentation on payment methods and payout timings is lighter than we would like, so verify withdrawal options and any fees with support in writing before your first deposit rather than after.
Betninja — smaller, simpler, easier to judge
Betninja earns its 9.8 for the opposite reason to Betmica: £1,000 plus 100 free spins for all new players is a modest, comprehensible offer, and a smaller bonus balance is generally quicker to clear. It suits readers who want to test a site with a small deposit. The trade-off is obvious — if you are chasing the largest possible matched balance, this is not it, and "all new players" still means the usual eligibility, minimum deposit and qualifying-game rules apply.

Every offer above is subject to the operator's own terms: minimum deposit, wagering requirement, game contribution, maximum bet while a bonus is active, expiry and withdrawal caps. We reproduce headline wording as advertised and do not guarantee it is current at the moment you read it — tell us if it has changed.
Questions about games, sportsbooks and other product lines
Readers often ask what actually sits behind these welcome packages. Broadly, the offshore market splits into slots (including progressive jackpots, where the prize pool builds across players), table games such as blackjack, roulette and baccarat, and live dealer rooms streamed with human croupiers. RTP and volatility matter more than the bonus size over time: a high-volatility slot pays less often and larger, which interacts badly with a short bonus expiry. Most of these sites are mobile-first, so check that the games you care about run in a phone browser before you commit.
Several of the brands we cover also run a sportsbook alongside the casino, with pre-match and in-play markets, accumulators, bet builders, cash-out and esports. These behave differently from casino promotions: sports free bets normally carry minimum qualifying odds (commonly around 1.50 in decimal terms), the stake is not returned with winnings, and cashing out early usually voids a free bet's qualifying status. Where a site runs a shared wallet across casino and sportsbook, casino bonus funds may be blocked from sports markets entirely. CoinPoker's poker-led model is different again, with rake and tournament structures rather than slot wagering. If you are unsure which rules govern a promotion you have taken, send us the terms and we will read them with you.
Responsible gambling and what we cannot do
We are an independent publisher. We do not operate casinos, hold funds, process payments or have any ability to release a withdrawal, reverse a deposit or overturn a closed account. If you need money back, the operator's complaints procedure is the route, and we will tell you plainly where that route is weak.
If gambling has stopped being entertainment, please do not email us for a workaround. GamStop exclusions run for six months, one year or five years across UKGC-licensed sites, and offshore casinos are outside that net — which is precisely why device-level blocking software and bank gambling blocks matter if you have excluded yourself. GamCare runs the National Gambling Helpline on 0808 8020 133, free and open 24 hours a day. Gamble Aware and your GP can also point you towards local support. Deposit and loss limits, session reminders and account closure are worth setting up on day one rather than day one hundred.
Corrections, partnerships and press
- Corrections — quote the page and the sentence. Verified changes are made and the fact-check date updated; our current review date is 23 September 2026.
- Operators — we will consider factual corrections from brands and will state clearly when information comes from an operator rather than an independent source. Placement is not for sale.
- Press and research — tell us your deadline and what you need; we will say yes or no quickly.
- Complaints about our content — go to the same address, marked for the editor, and you will get a considered reply rather than a template.
Before you write
If your question is "which of these should I use", the honest answer is that it depends on whether you value a sterling account, a small clearable bonus or a large speculative one, and on how much verification friction you are willing to accept. Compare the terms side by side on our main list first; if something there does not answer you, then write. Wendy Brewster and the editorial team read the inbox, and a specific question gets a specific answer.
