Best Online Casinos in The UK – Top Casino Sites Reviewed & Ranked in 2023

MagicRed is a reasonably new name to us, but the company behind it – AG Communications – certainly is not. AG, a company based in Malta, has been running casino sites since 2014, and sports betting sites since 2017. They are one of the most well-known names in the online casino business, and MagicRed is a fine example of the kind of casino site they create.

The welcome bonus at MagicRed (only available if you click the button below) is another with the key attribute of no wagering! You will be awarded 20 bonus spins on the popular Big Bass Bonanza slot machine after you have made a minimum £10 deposit. If you fortunate enough to win via your spins, any winnings are paid to you directly.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.8

We counted close to 1,500 games (it took us a while!) at MagicRed, which is a decent number plus we mostly found the very best in games. Slots are the most numerous, followed by table games and live casino games. Providers include Play’n Go and Pragmatic Play.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.7

As we said, you start life off at MagicRed with 20 bonus spins on Big Bass Bonanza upon making a £10 deposit, with no wagering on winnings. The site offers other bonuses, including bonus spins every Tuesday and 10 percent cash back on live casino games every weekend.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.7

AG Communications have been in business since 2010 so are obviously doing something right! Their casino licence number at the UKGC is 39483. The site uses SSL technology for encryption, and has all games independently ratified by eCOGRA.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.7

You can use Visa/MasterCard debit cards at MagicRed, plus bank transfers, Trustly, PayPal, AstroPay, MuchBetter, Skrill or Paysafecard with deposits being instant. You can use most methods for withdrawals, which can take between one and six days to arrive.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.6

MagicRed does not provide apps, so it’s purely an in-browser experience for anyone who wants to play on mobile. We have to say that the mobile version of MagicRed does work well, but it could work better!

Dedicated sports bettors may have come across the ‘All British Sports’ sports betting site in their time. If you are one of those and wonder why the ‘All British Casino’ seems to have jump on the ‘All British’ bandwagon, we are happy to inform you that the ‘All British Casino’ is run by ‘All British Sports’ (or vice versa) !

Both brands are owned by L&L Europe, which is another gambling company that’s based in Malta. The site offers everything from slots to video poker and everything in between. If you’re a fan of Slingo (a mix of slots and bingo) then you’re in luck at ‘ABC’ as there are many examples of this unique game.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.6

It’s an impressive list of software providers at the All British Casino. Among the names that can be bragged about – Blueprint, Evolution, Microgaming, Play’n GO, Pragmatic Play and NetEnt. That’s an impressive list, creating an incredible catalogue of games with 600+ in totaland a payout around 96 percent making this maybe the best payout online casino in the UK.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.6

Things certainly start off impressively at the All British Casino with a 100 percent bonus up to £100 for new players. You also get 10 percent back on all your first week losses … and every week, carrying on forever! There are also weekly bonuses named ‘Marvellous Midweeks’, so watch out for them.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.5

L&L Europe have been around since 2014, when they opened the All British Casino under licence number 38758. This company added sports betting in 2018, and have no black marks against their name. L&L run 10 casino domain names in total. Encryption for data is used and all games are ratified by eCOGRA.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.5

Banking options here include Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Trustly and ApplePay. Deposits are safe and instant. Withdrawals must be for at least £10 and are completed in the usual timeframes of one to five days.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.4

Sadly, there are no apps available from the All British Casino, but the site does work very well in all mobile browsers. The menu options are a little ‘chunky’ though, so it’s better to use a tablet than a phone, if possible. All the games run perfectly smoothly.

Maltese company ProgressPlay are synonymous with online gambling, running or providing the software for almost 200 gambling websites, all over the globe. We are spoilt for choice when it comes to online ProgressPlay casino sites, but we have selected 21LuckyBet as the best example of what they are capable of.

21LuckyBet really is a tremendous site with everything an online casinos site should provide its site users with. It is not perfect, however (which is why it only makes number five on our list) but we will get into the good points and the bad points of 21LuckyBet below.

Games Selection & Software Providers  – 4.6

It’s impossible ever to be bored at 21LuckyBet, as you would expect of any site that has over 2,500 games. Providers available include Microgaming, 1X2 Gaming, Thunderkick, Blueprint Gaming and BigTimeGaming. Most of the games are slots admittedly, but there are a sufficient number of table games and live casino games from Playtech and Evolution.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.6

The welcome bonus at 21LuckyBet sounds great on paper – a 100 percent bonus up to £200, plus 20 free spins for a minimum deposit of £10. However, wagering is set at 50 times which we think is really too high. It’s still of decent dimensions though, so you might as well claim it when you sign up.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.6

ProgressPlay have had their licence (number 39335) since 2014 and despite operating or helping to operate nearly 200 sites have only suffered one regulatory action (in 2022). The site uses the latest 128-bit Secure Socket Layer (SSL) encryption and firewall tech to protect its customer’s data.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.6

Payments at ProgressPlay can be achieved using Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, ApplePay, Paysafecard, Payz (formerly ecoPayz), Neteller, Skrill or Neosurf. Minimum deposit is £10. Withdrawals must be for at least £10 and take between one and three days to process. The bad news is there’s a one percent processing fee on all withdrawals up to a maximum of £3.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.4

No dedicated apps available from ProgressPlay, which is a shame. However, you can of course use this ProgressPlay site on your phone or tablet using a browser. The experience is excellent, but we would still like to see dedicated apps for those who prefer them.

Fafabet have made it to the new online casinos list and is another site that first and foremost seems to consider itself a sports betting site but it’s not one that has just attached an online casino for the sake of it. Both the casino and live casino that’s available via the Fafabet portal are exceptional, and well worthy of your precious gambling time.

Fafabet is owned and operated by TaichiTech which (and this is very rare for gambling sites) is actually a UK company, based in Reading. The Fafabet site is nicely designed with clear and consistent menus, and with a very easy to use interface for your account business and gaming.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.4

This site boasts nearly 900 slots from top software names such as Pragmatic Play, Microgaming and BigTimeGaming. It also has close to 200 table games plus 20 or so instant win games. The live casino has close to 100 featured goals from baccarat to sic bo.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.4

You can get off to a great start at Fafabet with a UK bonus worth up to £100 with a £20 free bet to use at the attached Fafabet sports betting site if you so wish. Just make a minimum £10 deposit then stake at least £10 on any slot to acquire the matched bonus up to £100. Wagering is decent at 35x.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.4

Fafabet has been licensed since 2021 (licence no. 57385) and has so far zero black marks against its name. Fafabet is the only site that Taichi Tech runs. The site makes no mention of its security measures so we will have to take it as read that it has some in place!

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.6

There are only two payment methods at Fafabet, Visa or MasterCard (we won’t count Visa Electron or Maestro as they are being phased out, globally). This is a slight limitation and the offer of an eWallet or two would not go amiss. We could find no info about deposits/withdrawals at the site, which is a shame.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.4

No apps available for Fafabet, so here it’s another browser-based experience on phones and mobiles. This is only a mild inconvenience at the most, but we always like to see the options for peeps who prefer apps to using a mobile browser. The site does look good on mobile, but we have seen better.

After a couple of newbie casinos, let’s get back to one that’s been around for a while. Actually, it has not been around for that long (2019) but it’s been part of the UK casino scene for so long it seems it has been around for a while longer! Casiplay is actually the second casino on our top ten list that is run by AG Communications.

There is plenty to like about Casiplay, and it’s to our mind the second-best UK casino site run by AG Communications, after MagicRed. Let’s now look a little deeper into Casiplay, and see if we can see what makes this online casino site really tick.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.6

Providers here include NetEnt, Microgaming and Play’n GO. The site offers so many slots that it is almost impossible to count them! The most popular slots at Casiplay are Winfrey Treasures and Sizzling Mystery. One downvote here though – there is no separate section for table games so you have to use the search function. The live casino gets it own section, though.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.4

That welcome package is £100 with 150 extra spins thrown in for good measure. Just register at Casiplay (use the button below) and make a minimum deposit of £20. You will get your deposit match back up to £100 and 15o spins over your first four deposits. Wagering is on the plus side at £35.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.4

Casiplay falls under AG Communications licence at the UKGC (39483) which has been active, casino-wise, since 2014. All data that passes from and to the site is encrypted, so you’ve no worries there.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.6

The accepted banking methods at Casiplay are debit cards, ApplePay, Skrill, PayPal and Trustly. For some reason Neteller is not available. Deposits are instant and withdrawals take between two and six days. There is no minimum withdrawal but some withdrawals may not be processed automatically.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.4

Sadly, Casiplay is another site that shows no desire to furnish its site users with a dedicated mobile app. You can still of course access Casiplay on your phone or tablet by using a mobile browser. The experience, though not perfect is positive and all games function perfectly well.

As soon as you land at the Yeti Casino is seems impossible for a ‘not entertaining’ experience to be the result, and you’d be right! This attractive site is the sister site to the All British Casino, both being run by L & L Europe Limited, plus the site’s ‘Yeti’ mascot is adorable, not abominable.

This site has some nice ways of doing things, including the ability to sort by unusual themes such as ‘Something Fishy’, or something a little more useful such as ‘Megaways’. Let’s now take a closer look at what this Yeti is keeping in his casino cave.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.4

Mr Yeti says that his site has over 1,500 games, and we are not about to argue with him! The majority are slots and include titles from leading software providers such as Evolution, IGT, Microgaming, NextGen Gaming and Play’n GO. Your options here include table games, casual games, jackpot games, sports betting, slingo and a live casino.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.3

The welcome bonus at the Yeti Casino is a £111 max refund bonus, plus 100 free spins on the Play’n Go top slot, Book of Dead. This means that no matter how much of your first deposit you lose, you get it back as bonus cash up to £111. This does sound good but it comes with very high wagering of 60x. The site also does cash back on all losses, 10 percent now and forever.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.4

As we mentioned in our All British Casino review, L & L Europe has a full and proper UKGC licence, number 38758. L & L run ten sites in total, of which Yeti Casino and All British Casino as the most well-known. All games here have been independently ratified, and all data is suitably encrypted.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.0

Available payment options include Visa, MasterCard, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Paysafecard, Trustly and MuchBetter. The site does not mention limits and processing speeds so we’ll have to go with the standards – £10 and one to three days. No fees appear to be charged.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.0

Sadly, Mr Yeti has chosen not to furnish the gambling casino world with apps. You can still play at his casino though on mobile devices very easily though, using any mobile browser. It’s not the perfect experience, but we think it delivers an acceptable experience.

Finally, we come to the tenth and final entry our top casinos list. Taking top spot number ten is Winomania. We assume it’s ‘win-o-mania’ and not ‘wino-mania’. This site is heavy on the slots and has some decent promotions too, plus a good range of suitable UK-friendly payment methods.

This site is unique as it is run by a company with no other entries in our top ten list – Anakatech Interactive. That’s not a name we’re familiar which is why we gave Winomania a thorough looking-over before it took its place in our top ten list.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.3

This slit has a decent gaming catalogues that begins with just over 700 online video slots. These include all of BigTimeGaming’s Megaways slots, plus games from Play’n Go, NetEnt and other top names. Table games are thin on the ground though at just 17. The live casino has more titles, and is provided by Evolution.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.3

The main promo available courtesy of Winomania is a 100 percent bonus up to £100 with 100 bonus spins added on top. You need to make a minimum deposit of £10 to get your bonus, and it comes with the expectation of 40x wagering. Other bonuses are usually available, including reloads and cashback.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.2

We checked out Winomania’s licence (UKGC licence number 48789) and found it to be valid and free of sanctions. It was awarded to Anakatech in 2017, and this company has two more domains but both are dormant. The site has a fair play policy and all data is suitably encrypted.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.0

Winomania accepts debit cards, PayPal, Skrill, Neteller, Neosurf and Trustly. Minimum deposit seems to be £10 and deposits are processed instantly. The minimum accepted withdrawal is £10 too. Payments take three to five days to be processed, unless it’s via wire transfer which can take nine.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.0

Again no apps available at Winomania, so if it is mobile you are after here, it’s another browser-based experience. We have to say we found the mobile gaming experience here to be ‘adequate’ as some of the icons shrink to much they’re impossible to decipher.

LeoVegas is one of our most-loved online casino sites and that has been true for a number of years now, as this long-established casino has been around since 2014. This means that LeoVegas will shortly be celebrating its tenth anniversary! Well done for this site for lasting so long.

Sadly, despite our love, LeoVegas can only make its way towards the rear of our list of the best sites. We feel the company behind it (also called LeoVegas) has been concentrating a little too much on its newer ventures such as BetUK and BetMGM to pour too much thought into its flagship product, which is a shame.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.4

LeoVegas does keep up with all the latest releases, so all the newest slots will always be available here for you to play. When we checked out the site, the last entrants were 21 Thor Lightning Wayz, Jeff & Scully and Sherwood Gold. All the casino classics are of course available too.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.3

The casino welcome at LeoVegas can either be a £100 bonus (wagering x35) plus 50 free spins on Big Bass Splash, or a £50 free bonus (wagering x40) + £6 in free casino chips to use at the site’s live casino. The site always has offers though, including weekly deals for slots and live casino games.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.4

We’ve already mentioned that LeoVegas has a valid UKGC licence (39198) that’s been valid since 2014. They added betting in 2016, and bingo 2018. One regulatory strike, though – in 2022 for regulatory failures between October 2019 and 2020.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.0

You’re a bit short of payment options at LeoVegas – just Visa debit cards, MasterCard debit cards, PayPal and ApplePay. All those are speedy options though, so there should be no issues with you getting your cashouts quickly.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.2

We think that LeoVegas may have provided a casino app in the past, but we can’t be 100 percent sure. What is clear is that no apps are provided now – but that hardly matters as the site is fully mobile-optimised and looks amazing on mobile devices.

Here at SafeBettingSites we are always happy to champion new sites, as long as they are good. While using the term ‘new’ for HeySpin might be stretching things a little (as the site has now been around since 2019), we still that’s new-ish, and HeySpin certainly deserves a position on our list.

This site is yet another that is run by Aspire Global, a company which rivals ProgressPlay as the top provider of online casinos all over the globe. HeySpin is also a true global site as it has licences for the UK, Ireland and Malta, the latter acting as a secure licence for every nation outside the UK where licensed online gambling is permitted.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.4

Plenty of games at HeySpin and plenty of the leading software providers too, including Big Time Gaming and Pragmatic Play. With the latter, this means the ‘Drops & Wins’ feature is available so when you are playing any Pragmatic Play game at HeySpin, you could be awarded a random prize at any time.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.3

HeySpin starts you off with a 100 percent bonus up to £50, plus 100 bonus free spins. The wagering requirement is reasonable at 35x. Further deposit bonuses are available. You can also earn up to 50 spins each day by completing challenges.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.3

HeySpin runs under the established Aspire Global licence which has the licence number 39483. Despite having almost 90 domains, Aspire Global has only been sanctioned once – in 2022 for regulatory issues.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.2

Payment options at HeySpin run from Visa and MasterCard debit and credit cards to multiple eWallets including PayPal, Skrill and MuchBetter. For some reason Neteller is unavailable. Withdrawal times are standard, and HeySpin says it will try and get your money to you as quickly as it can.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.1

No apps via HeySpin, so it’s mobile optimisation all the way. This is a decent mobile experience, but we have to say we have seen better. Let’s hope AG ups the standard of their mobile client soon.

If you think you might be under the misunderstanding that 10bet is a sports betting site, then you would not be wrong as it’s a sports betting site that has added a casino to it. It’s a very fine casino too, with plenty of positives as we will discover as we dive deeper into this concise review.

The casino arm at 10bet is owned by the same company that owns the sports betting side – Water Tree Limited and both are operated by Maltese company Blue Star Planet. The site has been around since 2003 and has gone through multiple redesigns since, as you might imagine!

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.7

Let’s start with the slots, as people often do! There are just under 1,200 slots at 10bet, which as I am sure you agree is a big number. Plenty of superb providers of course, including NetEnt, iSoftBet and Big Time Gaming. With that name you’ll be expecting Megaways slots of course, and over 100 are available here.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.6

You get started at 10bet with a 50 percent bonus up to £100 with 50 free spins too (use the bonus code ‘WELCOME10’). Your initial deposit here must be for at least £10 and not made via Skrill or Neteller. Wagering is ‘okay’ at 40x. 10bet always seems hot on promos, so there’s also something on offer.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.6

Blue Star Planet can boast longevity – having been around since 2003 – which is something that’s always reassuring. Their UKGC licence (43173) was awarded in 2015 and is valid, although it has been sanctioned. All data used by the site is encrypted by 128-bit SSL digital encryption which adds another layer of encryption.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.5

Payment methods available stretch to cards (Visa/MasterCard), ApplePay, eWallets (Neteller, Skrill, PayPal), Paysafecard and Trustly. Deposits are instant. Withdrawals can be done via card or eWallet, or online bank transfer. Minimum withdrawal is only £1! Withdrawals can take from between one and three days.

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.6

The 10bet casino and sports betting site does not provide downloadable apps, so it’s another casino that’s browser-based if you want to play on mobile. It is nicely optimised, so the mobile experience is a good one, no matter if you are on a phone or a tablet.

We’ve already covered one ProgressPlay site on our list, but we like them so much that we just have to include another one. This one is called Queen’s Guild, as is one of the newest entries into the ProgressPlay stable, having been created in 2023.

If you head to the Queen’s Guild site you will notice all the familiar features of a ProgressPlay site, including plenty of top games and an appealing visual appearance. The site boasts of innovation, security, games, banking, promotions and its availability on multiple devices, so let’s see how it goes.

Games Selection & Software Providers – 4.4

The site has over 2,500 games, which is hefty number but has kind of become the norm for the top casino websites these days. There are 64 providers altogether (another high number) including Microgaming, Thunderkick, Eyecon, BigTimeGaming and Foxium. The selection is truly excellent, covering slots, table games and live casino titles.

Bonuses & Promotions – 4.3

The Queen’s Guild welcome package stretches up to £400. This is over your first three deposits – 1st: 30 percent up to £100; 2nd: 25 percent up to £100; 3rd: 30 percent up to £200. Each bonus is triggered by a £10 minimum deposit but wagering is high at £50.

Security Measures & Licensing – 4.4

Queen’s Guild runs under the standard ProgressPlay licence (number 39335) that was granted by the UKGC in 2014, so you’ve no need to worry about this site’s legitimacy. The site operates both privacy and cookie policies and uses 128bit SSL encryption to secure all data.

Banking & Withdrawal Speed – 4.0

Banking methods are debit cards, PayPal, ApplePay, PaysafeCard, Payz, Neteller, Skrill and Neosurf. Minimum deposit is £10. There are no limits on withdrawals and they take between one and three days to complete. Sadly, as a ProgressPlay site Queen’s Guild charges a one percent fee on all withdrawals (max fee £3).

App & Mobile Gaming Experience – 4.2

No apps via Queen’s Guild but that’s something you don’t really need to worry about that much. You can play at Queen’s Guild via any phone or tablet mobile browser. The experience is exceptional, and the site is fully mobile-optimised.
