About Us
Non Gamstop Casinos is an independent site for UK players researching casinos not on Gamstop. We look at operators licensed outside the UK Gambling Commission's remit, work out what they actually offer, and lay it out plainly so you can decide for yourself whether one suits you.
We are not a casino and we don't accept wagers. Our job is to compare the sites in this space on the things that matter — game selection, bonus terms, payment options and how each operator is licensed — and present that comparison without the marketing gloss.
Why This Site Exists
Gamstop is a UK self-exclusion scheme that blocks access to sites licensed by the Gambling Commission. Some players who have self-excluded, or who simply prefer more choice than the UKGC market allows, look for casinos operating under other licensing regimes, most commonly Curaçao. These sites sit outside Gamstop's reach because they are not required to register with it. We built this site to help readers understand how that market works, what differs from a UK-licensed casino, and what to check before signing up anywhere.
There are genuine reasons players end up here beyond exclusion — bigger welcome packages, wider game libraries from a broader mix of studios, fewer restrictions on deposit limits, and payment options like crypto or Paysafe that some UKGC sites don't support. We cover those positives honestly, alongside the trade-offs, rather than pretending the choice is one-sided.
How We Rate and Rank
Every operator on this site is assessed against the same set of criteria, and no brand pays for a higher position. Our checks include:
- Licensing — which jurisdiction issued the operator's licence, usually Curaçao, and whether that licence is current and traceable
- Game range — the breadth of slots, table games and live dealer titles, and which studios supply them
- Bonus terms — the wagering requirements, maximum cashout limits, game weighting and time limits attached to any welcome offer, not just the headline percentage
- Payment methods — what a UK player can realistically use to deposit and withdraw, and how long each method typically takes
- Player support — whether help is easy to reach and responsive when contacted
Commission from affiliate links never decides where an operator sits in our rankings. A brand can pay to be listed and still score below a rival that doesn't.
What We Cover Beyond the Rankings
The rankings above are only part of the picture. Our full guide to non Gamstop casinos in the UK goes deeper into individual reviews, how welcome offers compare across operators such as Betmica, Kikibet and Betninja, and the payment methods available at each. We also look at the sportsbook and betting products several of these operators run alongside their casino — most sites in this space cover football, tennis and esports betting as well as slots and tables, so it's worth checking both sides if you're comparing options.
Self-exclusion is a personal decision, and it's one we take seriously even while covering sites outside the scheme. If you want to understand your options around problem gambling support, or how to extend or manage an exclusion, our Responsible Gambling page has more detail.
Our Independence
Non Gamstop Casinos earns revenue through affiliate partnerships. If you click through to an operator and sign up, we may receive a commission. That relationship never decides which sites we recommend or how we score them — a casino cannot buy a better rating, and we'll say where a site falls short even if it's one of our partners. Full terms covering how the site operates are set out in our Terms and Conditions.
Gambling should always be 18+ and treated as entertainment rather than income. If you have a question about how we research a site, spot something out of date, or want to flag an operator we've missed, our Contact Us page is open.
