How We Rate Casinos
Every casino on StrongSnow is reviewed using a structured scoring system. We evaluate five key areas and combine them into a single rating out of 5. No casino can pay for a higher score.
Our 5 Rating Criteria
Bonus Value — 25%
We assess the headline bonus amount, maximum cashout limits, and how the offer compares to industry averages. Larger bonuses with fair caps score higher.
Wagering & Terms — 25%
Lower wagering requirements, longer expiry periods, non-sticky structures, and clear terms all contribute to a higher score in this category.
Trust & Licensing — 20%
We verify the casino holds a valid licence from a recognised authority (MGA, Curacao, UKGC). We also check company history, ownership transparency, and public complaint records.
Payment & Speed — 15%
We evaluate the range of deposit and withdrawal methods, processing times, minimum/maximum limits, and whether any fees apply to transactions.
User Experience — 15%
We test mobile compatibility, game library size and variety, customer support availability, and the overall quality of the site interface and navigation.
What Each Score Means

Excellent
Outstanding bonus value, fair terms, strong licence, fast payments, and excellent UX. Our top recommendations.
3.5–4.4
Good
Solid offer with minor drawbacks. May have higher wagering, fewer payment options, or a smaller game library.

Average
Acceptable but not competitive. Notable weaknesses in multiple categories. Proceed with caution.

Below Average
Significant concerns. Unfair terms, licensing issues, poor payment experience, or unresolved player complaints. Not recommended.
Our Independence
StrongSnow earns commission when users sign up through our affiliate links. This is how we fund the site. However, commercial relationships never influence our ratings or rankings.
Casinos cannot pay for higher scores, featured placement in rankings, or removal of negative information. Our review criteria are applied consistently across every casino we evaluate.
