Our Review Methodology: How We Rate Online Casinos

\n\n

Transparency is the cornerstone of our editorial process. At konibetcasino.net, we believe that users should understand exactly how a score is calculated before relying on it to make a decision. In our opinion, the iGaming industry often lacks a standardized rating system, which is why we have developed a proprietary, weighted rubric to evaluate live stream online casinos.

The Weighted Rating System

\n\n

We do not use a simple average. Instead, we assign a percentage of the total score to specific categories based on their importance to the player's experience and security. According to our methodology, the scoring is distributed as follows:

\n\n

    \n

  • Licensing & Regulation (25%): The foundation of trust. We check for valid licenses from recognized authorities (such as MGA or Curaçao). A site without a verifiable license may receive a failing grade in this category.

    • \n

  • Security & Privacy (20%): We look for SSL encryption, two-factor authentication (2FA), and clear data protection policies.

    • \n

  • Game Library & Live Stream Quality (15%): For our niche, the quality of the live dealer stream, latency, and variety of providers are critical.

    • \n

  • Payouts & Banking (15%): We evaluate the speed of withdrawals, the variety of payment methods, and the fairness of the terms.

    • \n

  • Bonuses & Fair Terms (15%): We analyze the wagering requirements and the transparency of the T&Cs.

    • \n

  • Customer Support & RG Tools (10%): The availability of help and the presence of robust responsible gambling tools.

    • \n

A Note on Responsible Gambling

\n

No matter how high a casino scores in our review, gambling should always be treated as a form of entertainment, not a way to make money. Based on our methodology, we prioritize operators that provide accessible responsible gambling tools. If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, we strongly encourage you to seek help from professional support services.

\n\n

Final Scoring Calculation

\n

The final score is the sum of the weighted category totals. For example, if a casino scores 8/10 in Licensing, that contributes 2 points to the final 10-point scale (8 * 0.25). This ensures that a great game library cannot mask a lack of security or a missing license.
