Rogue online casinos - these brands are on our blacklist

”Sadly, there are many rogue casino out there. Have a look at our online casino blacklist to make sure you don’t join one!”

Although most online casinos are safe and secure, there are also many casinos you should avoid. The reason(s) why you should avoid these rogue or blacklisted casinos can be different.

The most important reasons why we blacklist casinos are;

  • They offer unfair games, rigger games or bad software.
  • They don’t pay out players or affiliates or they pay out way to slow.
  • They claiming having certain licenses without owning them.
  • They don’t play by their own terms and conditions.
  • They change conditions or terms in their own advantage.
  • They offer bad customer support or poor practices.
  • They advertise with false information or they spam players.
  • They offer unfair bonuses or promotions.

What’s the purpose of our online casino blacklist

As a review website we want to help players find a safe and fair online casino. Because of this we also want to help players steer away from rogue online casinos. This ensures all players through our website have a nice experience while playing online.

Do you have any questions about our list? Or do you have an complain about an online casino? Then make sure you send us a message!

What makes an online casino rogue?

There are many rogue casinos or not recommended casinos that we have listed because of one or more reasons. Below we will explain which reasons we think are fair to blacklist an online casino. When an casino is blacklisted it can be delisted but it is pretty hard. Depending on reviews of customers casinos can of course get delisted after a while.

1. Unfair games or rigged software

Of course all casino games should be fair and totally random. Most casino are fair, but some try to scam their players. By manipulating or pirating their games some casino try to fool players and take extra winnings. This is certainly not fair and scamming casinos should be punished. Because of this we will blacklist all casinos that offer unfair or rigged games. Besides offering rigged real games some online casinos also offer free money games with unfair payout rates. Which encourage people to deposit. This is not fair and can also be a reason to blacklist an online casino.

2. Bad payers

There are also online casinos that have a bad history regarding payments. Or they pay very slow, or they don’t pay at all. These casino stall payment and hope people start playing again or they just keep to money which equals theft. It’s also common that rogue casinos cancel winnings for no good reason. This behaviour indicated that the casino is a fraud or has a liquidity problem and probably pays out people with other people’s balances. This is not acceptable and definitely a reasons to blacklist an online casino.

3. Unlicensed operators

There are also casinos that claim to own an certain license while they don’t own it. This is not good and a good reasons to suspect an online casino has no good intentions. Besides that there are also multiple casinos that do own an license but a worthless one (for example the Costa Rican license). We always recommend you to play at an online casino with at least an license from the Maltese, UK or Curacao jurisdiction. All other licenses are less useful since they don’t protect players very well.

4. Unfair terms and conditions

It is also common that rogue casinos offer changing or bad terms and conditions. This means they offer terms that are totally in their advantage. Or they change terms while you are playing in their advantage. Because of this it is possible that you broke rules or bonus terms while you didn’t really did anything wrong. In this case the casino for example cancels your winnings and takes advantage of their changing rules. This is not acceptable and certainly a reasons to blacklist an online casino.

5. Unfair or spammy marketing

We don’t like casinos that spam us or their players. And that’s why this is an good reasons to blacklist an online casino. Besides that we also don’t like when players get fooled by unfair marketing messages. Online casinos should always be fair and transparent. Besides that they should not bombard players with emails, text messages and calls. All casinos that use aggressive marketing techniques will be blacklisted on our website.

6. Uncompetent customer Support

We think online casinos should offer a good customer support department. By favour they should offer support 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Because of this online casinos that offer no or bad customer support will be blacklisted on our website. It is not acceptable when casinos don’t offer an good live chat or support system. All online casinos should respect their players an offer a fair and fast support department.

How to check if an online casino is legit or rogue – 7 easy steps

Do you have your eye on a new online casino and do you want to start playing there? Then make sure you check if the casino is safe and fair first! You can do this by taking a few steps. We can recommend taking the following steps;

  1. Look up there social media account and have look for complaints or feedback from players.
  2. Look up opinions and complaints in Google using the casinos name as a search phrase including words like fair, reliable, complaints, rogue or blacklisted.
  3. Check out our list with rogue and blacklisted casinos or look up the casino on other review websites.
  4. Scan the website and check out if everything looks legit. You can also decide to have a quick look through the terms and conditions.
  5. Check if the casino really holds the licenses it claims to have. Also make sure they have proper licensed by jurisdiction that really check the casinos.
  6. Look up post about the casino or company on website.
  7. Check if the casino is tested by an third party, for example an auditing agency.

Be wary in these cases

When an online casino becomes rogue / blacklisted there are always signs that this is going to happen. Problems start to turn up and bad reviews are spreading across the internet. To help you identify an online casino that is / turns bad will we sum up some important signs that an online casino is or might become blacklisted. Be cautious when you see one of the following signs;

  • An casino advertises with too good to be true offers and promotions. This is always an sign that you should be beware. Of course some casinos offer nice bonuses but crazy bonuses indicate an casino is a fraud or offer very bad bonus terms and conditions.
  • The casino used to pay out winnings fast (within days) but then start paying out later and later. This might indicate an online casino had an liquidity problem. If this stays like to or the frequency increases we recommend staying cautious.
  • Affiliates of the casino start to complain that the casino doesn’t pay their fees. This is always a bad sign because the casino needs the marketing and services of affiliates. When this stops the casino might go broke.
  • A lot of bad reviews and experiences start to pop up on the internet. This is always a bad sign and this should make you cautious of an online casino.
  • An online casino change owner or gets sold. From this point on the casino can operate like it used to but it is also possible the new owner screws up the casino.
  • The casino has an license from a strange of unknown jurisdiction. We recommend players to only deposit at casinos with a license from the following jurisdictions; Malta, UK and Curacao.

 

”Better be safe than sorry. If you don’t trust it. Simply skip it!”

New casinos that we have added to our blacklist

Since we review casino every day we spot rogue casinos quiet often. To keep you up to date we will blacklist all these new rogue casino brands. Below you will find an overview of new blacklisted online casinos.

SpinUp Casino – blacklisted online casino

Since the beginning of 2020 we have added a new casino to our blacklisted. At first sight we thought SpinUp Casino was a pretty decent brand, but this turns out to be untrue. We have recently blacklisted SpinUp casino due to various reasons. You will find the most important reasons why we think this is a rogue casino below;

  1. Multiple players of SpinUp Casino have reported that the support department is very unfriendly and not professional at all;
  2. The general and promotional terms and conditions are unfair for players. Wagering limits are for example very high and some terms limit the amount of money you can withdrawal after depositing less than €200,-;
  3. SpinUp Casino is related to various other online casinos with a bad reputation. The operator, Split Aces Affiliates, is also known for the rogue casinos Bronze Casino and Jelly Bean Casino. This encourages us even more to blacklist SpinUp;
  4. Partners of SpinUp Casino recently receive a message out of the blue that they need to stop promotion for a month. This also shows this party is not very reliable and fair towards other companies;

These important reasons makes us believe that the company behind SpinUp is unethical. Because of this we recommend you to avoid SpinUp Casino at all cost.
