Secure Online Casinos is an independent inspection board for online casinos that accept real-money players across the United States. We exist to answer one honest question: when there are no US-state-licensed offshore casinos, which sites earn a passing safety grade, and which fail?
We are not owned by any casino operator. Our team plays with real money, reads the fine print on every bonus, and grades what we find — including the parts operators would rather we skipped. We cash out ourselves to time payouts, and we mark down slow fiat withdrawals, punishing rollover, weak encryption, and sites with no verifiable licensing.
Secure Online Casinos earns affiliate commissions when readers sign up through our links. That revenue keeps the report running, but it never buys a higher grade. A casino cannot pay to move up our board, and we have dropped brands that paid us well when they failed our readers.
Our inspections are written by Sloane Prescott, our lead casino-safety inspector, and checked by our Managing Editor, Bianca Ferro. See our grading methodology and editorial policy.
