About Us

Casinos Not On Gamstop was set up for one reason: UK players who have self-excluded through GAMSTOP still want clear, honest information about the casinos operating outside that scheme. We're not here to lecture anyone on their choices. We're here to research the sites, break down the free spins and welcome offers on the table, and explain how these casinos actually work so you can make your own call.

What GAMSTOP Is, and Why This Site Exists Alongside It

GAMSTOP is the UK's national self-exclusion scheme. Once a player registers, GAMSTOP blocks their access to all casinos and betting sites holding a UK Gambling Commission licence. It's a voluntary tool for people who want to step back from UK-regulated gambling for a fixed period or indefinitely.

Casinos not on GAMSTOP sit outside that scheme because they hold licences from other jurisdictions rather than the UKGC — typically Curaçao, among others. That means GAMSTOP's block doesn't apply to them, and this is where Casinos Not On Gamstop comes in: we research these operators, compare their offers, and lay out what each one involves, including the positives that draw players to them — wider game libraries, larger deposit-match bonuses, and fewer account restrictions than many UK-licensed alternatives.

How We Research and Rank

We don't accept payment for a higher position on this site. Commission from an operator, where it exists, never decides where that operator sits in our rankings. Every casino on Casinos Not On Gamstop is assessed against the same criteria before it earns a place:

• Welcome offer value and terms — the headline percentage and cash cap, plus the wagering requirements, free spin conditions and time limits attached to it
• Game range — the spread across slots, table games and live-dealer rooms, and which software studios supply them
• Payment options — what methods a UK player can realistically use to deposit and withdraw, and how those methods behave in practice
• Licensing and operating basis — which jurisdiction licenses the site, since this shapes what protections and complaint routes are and aren't available
• Site usability — how straightforward registration, verification and cashing out actually are

New non GAMSTOP casinos appear regularly, and we revisit our list as offers change or new operators launch, rather than leaving reviews static.

A Look at Where the Current List Stands

Our top-ranked sites illustrate the range of offers you'll find across non GAMSTOP casinos right now.

Betmica currently tops our list with a Welcome Offer of 570% up to £5,700 plus 270 free spins — one of the largest headline match percentages we've come across. The scale of that offer is exactly why it sits at number one, but a bonus this large will carry meaningful wagering requirements, so reading the full terms before opting in matters more here than with a smaller offer.

Kikibet follows closely with 350% up to £5,555 and 300 free spins. The spin count is one of the highest on our list, which suits players who prioritise slot volume over match percentage. As with any offer at this scale, the wagering conditions on both the deposit match and the spins need checking before you rely on them.

Betninja rounds out our top three with a flatter, simpler structure: £1,000 bonus and 100 free spins for all new players. It's a more modest headline than the sites above it, which is precisely its appeal — a smaller bonus generally comes with less demanding terms, making it a reasonable starting point for players who want to understand how these offers work before committing to a larger one.

Further down the list, Smash Casino (600% up to €10,000) and Rivo (1000% up to €10,000 plus 25% cashback) both push into very high match percentages with a cashback layer on top, which is worth comparing against straightforward deposit-match offers if ongoing value matters more to you than a one-off welcome bonus.

What's Actually on Offer at These Sites

Non GAMSTOP casinos generally run a broader catalogue than a single UK-licensed operator, split across a few recognisable categories:

• Slots — the largest category by volume, ranging from classic three-reel titles to modern video slots with bonus rounds, and usually the games free spins offers apply to
• Table games — roulette, blackjack and baccarat variants, typically available in both standard and higher-stakes formats
• Live-dealer games — streamed tables with a human dealer, covering the same core games with a more interactive feel

Many of these operators run a sportsbook or betting section alongside the casino. Betting sites not on GAMSTOP let players wager on football, tennis, horse racing and similar markets using the same account and, in most cases, the same welcome balance — worth checking if you want more than slots and tables from one login.

Paying In and Cashing Out

Payment options vary by operator, but UK players typically find a mix of card payments, e-wallets and, on some sites, Paysafe or cryptocurrency options. Each method carries its own processing time and, occasionally, a fee — card withdrawals tend to take longer than e-wallets, for instance. Deposit and withdrawal limits, along with any identity verification required before a first cash-out, are set by the individual casino, so we point out anything relevant in each site's own review rather than assuming one rule applies everywhere.

Licensing, Regulation and What It Means for You

Non GAMSTOP casinos vs UKGC-licensed casinos comes down to a difference in oversight. UKGC-licensed sites answer to the UK's own regulator, including its self-exclusion requirements. Non GAMSTOP sites operate under licences issued elsewhere, which means the UKGC's consumer protection framework and dispute process don't apply to them. That's a factual difference in regulatory reach, not a comment on whether a particular site is trustworthy — it simply means the safety net looks different, and it's worth understanding before you sign up anywhere.

If you've self-excluded and are reconsidering that decision, or want tools for staying in control regardless of which sites you use, our Responsible Gambling page covers self-exclusion options, deposit limits and where to find support.
