Who We Are

About CasinosHunter

We have spent hundreds of hours meticulously researching the Canadian gambling industry, explored hundreds of Canadian online casinos, online casino games, and bonuses, and read through miles of Terms and Conditions documents.

Delving even deeper, CasinosHunter has conducted over a hundred interviews with the representatives of the most famous game providers, including Wazdan, Endorphina, Nolimit City, Vivo Gaming, Yggdrasil, and others. We have been tirelessly tracking industry innovations and insights to provide updated and relevant information to Canadian gamblers on time.

We never compromise our integrity for profit. We don’t make paid casino reviews and we don’t accept payment for writing positive reviews. CasinosHunter applies a strict and transparent bottleneck system of criteria to check a casino’s quality and reliability.

Our Mission

Redefining the Casino Review Experience

CasinosHunter is focused on providing online casino gambling information relevant only specifically to Canadian gamblers:

Only offering online casinos that are legally compliant for Canada;
Giving preference to casinos supporting both English and French;
Explaining payments that work in Canada and accept CAD;
Explaining online casino bonuses and pointing out bonuses that are not worth taking;
Shifting our focus to mobile-compatible casino sites with official applications.

We take time to explain the nuances of payment methods for Canada, provide guidance on playing different games, and warn you about scammy bonus offers. Online casinos recommended on our platform are safe for real-money gambling and provide a quality user experience.

Our Approach

Unveiling Our Methodology

Our multi-step online casino rating system is complicated but completely transparent. Below, you can check out the rating approach to each crucial aspect of online casino evaluation.

Besides, when reviewing each particular casino site, our experts can manually add or remove up to 10 points for unique features or circumstances that are not reflected in this generalized rating system.

Safety Measures

Online casinos we recommend on CasinosHunter are licensed and have a positive reputation in the niche. They protect their users’ personal data and money and are trustworthy enough for gambling.

Games

The mere quantity of games is not yet a positive criterion. We look for casino sites with trending online slots and jackpots. The availability of live games is also an important factor. If the lobby represents games by the best studios in the industry, it boosts the site’s rating.

Mobile Compatibility

Being mobile-compatible is crucial these days. Most online casinos work well on mobile devices. However, if players can download official mobile applications for iOS and Android, we give this casino site extra points.

Bonuses

The variety and generosity of bonuses that online casinos offer have a considerable impact on players’ experience and satisfaction. Assessing the casino’s bonuses, we make sure the rules are clear and fair and the wagering requirements are adequate. If not, the rating immediately reflects this.

Our History

A Chronicle of Gambling Excellence

2020

Launching and entering the Canadian iGaming market

Despite Canada being very online casino friendly, we noticed very few reviewing platforms focused specifically on the needs of Canadian gamblers. We decided to create a project that would address those needs covering online gambling subjects relevant for Canadians.

2022

100+ Canadian online casinos were reviewed and rated

We have meticulously researched and assessed more than 200 online casinos to pick out around a hundred sites that are relevant and reliable enough to recommend. As the industry changes, we add reviews on new casino sites and update our previous reviews.

2023

100+ interviews with top casino software providers

We have contacted reliable and high-quality online casino game studios, big and small, old and new, collecting insights about games and gambling from them. Today, we have over a hundred interviews with representatives of different studios, as well as roundups covering industry news and innovations.

2024

Changing together with the industry

As we were working in the industry and gaining experience as an online casino reviewing platform, the industry was also evolving. Since 2020, a lot has changed. Collecting data, communicating with casino brands, software studios, and users, we developed a new view of things. So we enhanced our vision and approach, focusing in our reviews and guides on aspects that may be not obvious but are crucial when choosing an online casino for real money gambling.

FAQ

Still Have Questions?

How do you calculate the casino’s rating?

CasinosHunter has a thorough but transparent rating system. We use a list of criteria to assign points to online casinos. If the casino site meets our quality criteria positively, they earn more points.

What does the casino’s rating mean?

The higher the casino’s rating the higher the site’s quality is. If the casino site accumulates more points in our rating, it means that it meets our criteria and has all that it takes to provide decent services.

Why do the top recommended casinos on your lists change from time to time?

Online casinos are free to enhance their Terms and Conditions and other rules like bonus terms at any point of time without warning the players. However, these changes do not go unnoticed. CasinosHunter tracks them and adjusts the ratings accordingly. As a result, some online casinos lose or gain positions on our lists.

Do you have blacklisted casinos?

We don’t blacklist online casinos, at least not yet. Instead, we just do not recommend low-quality casino sites and never mention them in our reviews.

Can I get any exclusive casino bonuses from CasinosHunter?

Yes. We partner with some online casinos that offer exclusive bonuses to their newly registered users. On our pages, you can find some bonuses that are marked as exclusive for CasinosHunter’s readers. Just follow the link and you will get a bonus others can’t!

Why are some casino brands absent on CasinosHunter?

Not all online casino brands work well for Canadian players, even if the casino itself is of high quality and has a positive reputation. Also, sometimes online casinos do not meet our rating criteria so we do not include them.

How do you make money? Who pays the team?

CasinosHunter is an affiliate to online casinos. The team only makes money from online casinos when our readers sign up and play for real money at online casinos that we recommend. Players never have to pay anything to CasinosHunter, and the sum of their deposit never increases because they follow a link on CasinosHunter. Online casinos only pay us commissions according to our partnership agreements and no player is affected by those.
