License is the very first thing to check about any online casino and for all casino reviews, be it old, new, mobile, or whatever. Some licenses are considered more reputable and more reliable than others, because the license issuing authorities require that casino sites follow additional strict rules. However, any real active license is better than no license. Even low deposit sites such as $1 deposit casinos should have a license.

Terms and Conditions is a lengthy and seemingly boring document that anyways must be provided by every casino in full, for casino reviews, and moreover, every potential customer of the site should read the document carefully, and even more, if you play on a particular website on a regular basis, you should re-read the T&C document from time to time to double-check the rules. 

Terms and Conditions may seem boring, but if you think about it, this document states under what rules the player’s personal information, and the player’s money, will be managed by the casino site.

Bonus Terms are basically Terms and Conditions but for bonuses. These are obligatory for reading if the customer has plans on claiming any promotions, and should be checked in casino reviews. Bonus Terms state all the rules applied to bonuses in full, and reveal the real advantages and disadvantages of each promotion. Depending on the rules, a seemingly perfect bonus can turn out a rip-off, while a humble bonus can turn out very advantageous. 

Wagering requirements are among the most important rules that impact the quality of online casino bonuses.

Web casinos are impossible without games, but online gaming casinos usually do not make their own games. Few do, and with mixed results. Web casinos buy access to games from software providers - companies that create the games, and then sell access to the software to gambling platforms. 

The number of games in the lobby, and the number of software providers powering the casino lobby, will show how much entertainment the site has to offer.

The more banking methods are available, the better, but there are nuances. Some methods may not be available for certain countries, some methods may only be available for depositing; there are many nuances to check about the casino banking methods and payment processing companies. 

On the other hand, there are also rules applied to the banking methods by the web casino itself. The site can establish minimum and maximum limits for deposits and withdrawals, may limit deposits or withdrawals only to certain options, may take longer time to process the withdrawal requests, etc. 

These two parts of the banking criterion - the banking options and their rules, and the web casino’s rules - should be explored and analyzed together, to see the real picture of banking on the betting platform.

Security of online gambling depends on many factors, including the operator’s reputation and reliability; the site’s technical protection; the site’s legal protection; the banking partners; the software providing partners; fairness of games; independent testing and certification to ensure fair gambling; etc.

Customer Support is another criterion that has to do with protection and safety, because this is the first authority to address if something does not go as planned. The best case is when the casino site has its own Support (does not outsource it), and has several phone numbers for quick contact.

Web casinos do not usually have any user feedback on their platforms, so it makes sense to research online and look for reading feedback on forums or on social media, or for an online casino review. 

No feedback at all, and lack of online track, as well as too much negative feedback, as well as only super positive feedback, must make the potential customer suspicious. The older the web casino, the more track it should leave.

The design of the site may seem unimportant, but in reality, low-quality design can turn out slow, glitchy, nasty, and spoil the whole user experience right away. This can be reflected in any online casino review.

Some sites do not allow full information to unregistered visitors, forcing people to register and share their personal information just for the sake of finding out the full rules. Some sites add many useless text pages for SEO purposes but end up having looping navigation leading people in circles and not bringing them anywhere. 

In addition, all web casinos that want to be competitive should be mobile-compatible, or even offer their own mobile applications.
