About Us

Non Gamstop Casinos was built for one reason: GB players who have self-excluded through GamStop still have questions about what's available beyond that scheme, and most of the information out there is either outdated, overly promotional, or written by people who've never actually looked closely at the operators in question. This page explains who we are, what we do, and how we go about it.

What we actually do

We research and compare gambling sites not on GamStop — casinos, slots providers and betting platforms that operate outside the UK's self-exclusion database. We look at licensing, game libraries, payment options, bonus terms and general usability, then rank operators against each other so readers can make an informed choice. We don't operate any casino ourselves, and we don't process deposits or withdrawals for anyone. Our job is comparison and analysis, nothing more.

How we rate and rank operators

Every brand featured on brightonhealthandwellbeingcentre.co.uk is assessed against the same set of criteria before it earns a place in our rankings:

• Licensing and jurisdiction — where the operator is registered and what oversight applies there
• Game range — the breadth of slots, table games and live dealer titles on offer
• Payment flexibility — the deposit and withdrawal methods available, along with stated processing times and limits
• Bonus terms — the headline offer and, critically, the wagering requirements and conditions attached to it
• Site usability — how straightforward the platform is on both desktop and mobile

Commission arrangements with any operator never influence where it sits in our rankings. If a brand pays to be listed, that has no bearing on its position — the rating comes first, the commercial relationship is separate. Where we recommend paid or affiliate-linked options, we may earn a commission if you sign up, but that never decides who ranks where.

Why we cover casinos not on GamStop

GamStop is a self-exclusion scheme that lets people voluntarily block themselves from UK-licensed gambling sites for a set period. It's a useful tool for many, but it only applies to operators licensed by the UK Gambling Commission. Plenty of readers search for options outside that scheme for reasons ranging from wanting a broader range of games and bonuses, to preferring platforms with different payment methods, to simply wanting a fresh start with a different operator once a self-exclusion period has run its course. We're not here to argue for or against that choice — we're here to make sure that if someone is looking at these sites anyway, they have accurate, current information rather than guesswork.

It's worth being clear-eyed about the trade-off. Operators not on GamStop typically hold licences from jurisdictions such as Curaçao rather than the UK Gambling Commission, which means the consumer protections and dispute-resolution routes differ from what a UKGC-licensed site provides. We set that out plainly in our reviews rather than glossing over it, and anyone weighing up the difference between the two markets can find a fuller breakdown on our guide to non GamStop casinos.

What we look at in each review

Our mini-reviews cover more than just the welcome offer. We look at the range of slots, table games and live casino rooms available, since that's usually what determines whether a site is worth a player's time. We also check what else the operator runs alongside its casino — many of the same platforms also offer sports betting, so we note where that's the case for readers who want more than one product from a single account. On the payment side, we cover the deposit and withdrawal methods listed by each operator, including card payments, e-wallets and, where relevant, crypto options, along with any fees or processing windows the operator states.

A word on responsible gambling

Nothing on this site is intended to encourage anyone to gamble beyond what they can afford, and we take no position on whether any individual reader should or shouldn't use a site outside GamStop. If you're thinking about your own gambling habits, our responsible gambling page has practical information on tools and support options, regardless of which platforms you use.

Keeping the information current

Operators change their bonus terms, payment providers and game libraries regularly, and new casinos not on GamStop appear fairly often. We revisit our reviews and rankings on an ongoing basis so that the offers, terms and site details reflect what's currently advertised, rather than what was true when a page was first published. Full terms for using this site, including how we handle content and liability, are set out in our terms and conditions.
