How we check and rate
Where our information comes from and how a bonus gets its score.
By Ryan Jessop. Last checked .
Key takeaways
- Terms come from casinos' published conditions.
- Offer scores are out of 10.
- No verified offer, no listing.
- Commission never sets a score.
The offer score
Each welcome bonus is scored out of 10 on its terms alone.
| Casino | Bonus | Wagering | Offer score |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coral | Bet £10 on slots, get 100 free spins | None | 9.0/10 |
| PlayOJO | 80 free spins, no wagering | None | 9.0/10 |
| Ladbrokes | Play £10 on slots, get up to 500 free spins | None | 8.5/10 |
| Casumo | 50% bonus up to £100 | 10x bonus | 7.0/10 |
| 10bet | 100% bonus up to £25 | 10x bonus | 6.5/10 |
- Wagering carries the most weight: none scores highest, 10x lowest.
- Entry cost: £10 scores better than £20.
- Time: a week scores better than three days.
- Simplicity: fewer steps and fewer ways to lose the offer.
The overall score
Shown out of 5. It averages the offer score with four others covering games, live casino, payments and mobile, which rest on recent independent reviews. We have not opened real-money accounts to test them.

When we have nothing to list
No partner offers a no deposit bonus, a 200% match or a live casino bonus. Those pages say so and show the nearest verified offer.
Commission
We may earn commission when you join through our links. It does not alter a score or the order of a list. See the advertiser disclosure.
Updates
