Who we are

Casino Footnotes is an independent comparison site for licensed UK online casinos. We are not a casino, not part of the Gambling Commission, and not owned by any operator on our lists. We write about brands, compare them on checkable criteria, and link out to their official sites — that is the full extent of what we do.

The site is funded through affiliate partnerships. When you follow a link and create an account, we may receive a commission. That pays for hosting and research time. It does not buy placement — our criterion rankings are published openly, and operators cannot pay to move up a list.

Our editorial angle is newcomer-friendliness. Plenty of review sites focus on bonus size or game counts alone. We care about whether a first-time player can register without getting lost, find the live casino section without three clicks, and understand what GamStop means before they deposit.

What we do not do

We do not process deposits or withdrawals. We do not run games. We cannot reset your password, reverse a bet, or intervene in a dispute with an operator — those requests belong to the casino's support team or the UKGC complaints route.

We also avoid payment-method guides. Comparing payout speeds or listing e-wallet options is useful for some readers, but it is not our focus. We stick to licensing, lobby quality, game range, and the practicalities of getting started.
