How we review online casinos
Last updated: 2026-08-18 · Reviewed by Dan (Founder and editor)
Lucora reviews online casinos through a consistent process combining information published by the operator, promotional terms, licensing data and other sources identified on the review page. When an important detail is unavailable or cannot be confirmed, we leave it blank or explain the limitation instead of presenting an estimate.
What we check
Each review covers six areas: safety and licensing, payments, bonus terms, game selection, customer support and mobile experience. We also consider player-protection tools, restrictions relevant to the market and how clearly the operator presents essential information.
Sources and verification
We prioritise official operator pages, terms and conditions, payment and responsible-gambling pages, and information from the relevant regulator. Available sources are shown on the review. Promotional conditions can change, so we include verification dates where available and recommend checking the current terms before accepting an offer.
How we calculate the rating
The editorial rating uses the following weights. Safety receives the greatest weight because regulation and player protection come before promotional value.
Safety and licence: 25%
Payments: 20%
Bonus terms: 20%
Game selection: 15%
Customer support: 10%
Mobile experience: 10%
How we assess each area
For safety, we check licensing, the regulator, transparency and protection tools. For payments, we compare methods, minimum deposits, withdrawal times and limits when published. For bonuses, we assess value, wagering, minimum deposit, eligible games, limits and expiry. Game selection covers variety and providers; support covers channels, languages and help quality; and mobile experience covers navigation, games, account access and payments.
Updates and corrections
We review data when sources change or when a freshness check identifies outdated information. An offer change does not automatically produce a new rating: we first assess its effect on the relevant criteria. If you find an error, you can contact us through the contact page so the information can be reviewed.
