What this site is
Payoutlab covers the games you can play at casinos that hold no UK Gambling Commission licence — what each game is, how its maths works, how the UK version differs, and which sites carry it.
It is a games site before it is a casino list. That is deliberate: the operator you should pick depends entirely on what you actually play, and most comparison sites never ask.
How we rank
By measured payout speed first. Every operator listed here has been opened with a real account, funded with our own money and cashed out at least once, and the figure in the table is what we timed.
After that: licence verified on the regulator's register, whether bonus terms are honoured in practice, game range weighted towards the studios UK players actually search for, complaint patterns on Trustpilot and Reddit, and which payment rails genuinely work for UK cards.
How we make money — plainly
Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you open an account through one, we may receive a commission from the operator. It costs you nothing and it does not change the offer you receive.
It also does not set the order of our lists. We are not paid for placement, and an operator that fails a payout test is removed regardless of what it pays. If that ever stops being true, this paragraph will change.
Who writes it
Every page is written and tested by James Carter. Reviews carry the date they were last verified, and payout times are re-measured monthly.
A word about GamStop
This site covers operators that are not connected to GamStop. If you registered with GamStop because gambling had become a problem, that exclusion is doing its job and the honest advice is to leave it in place.
