Licensing Information

The website jokerstokercasino.com is an independent informational platform that publishes reviews, comparisons, and statistical data about online casino games. We do not hold a gambling licence because we do not operate a casino, accept wagers, process deposits, or manage player funds in any form. Our site functions strictly as a content resource for players who want to research games and operators before they play.

Every casino featured in our ratings is required to hold a valid licence from a recognised gaming authority. Before listing any operator, our team verifies the licence status directly with the issuing regulator. Operators whose licences have expired, been suspended, or cannot be independently confirmed are excluded from our site without exception.

Recognised Licensing Authorities

The authorities we most commonly encounter when verifying operators come from 5 main jurisdictions, each with its own oversight standards and enforcement record. We weigh the reputation of each regulator when assigning ratings to listed casinos.

Licensing is a critical factor in our 5-point evaluation process. A valid licence confirms that the casino operates under regulatory oversight, submits to regular audits, keeps segregated player funds, and complies with anti-money laundering and responsible gambling requirements. We give higher weight to regulators with a documented history of player protection and dispute resolution.

Game Providers and Independent Testing

The games we review on this site are produced by licensed software providers, including our own studio Endorphina, which has developed Joker Stoker and 100+ other titles since 2012. Each provider holds its own certification from one or more regulatory bodies, and their products undergo independent testing by certified laboratories.

• iTech Labs: Australian testing firm covering RNG fairness and RTP verification across 20+ markets.
• BMM Testlabs: One of the oldest independent labs, with full audits on game mechanics and security.
• eCOGRA: London-based testing agency with quarterly reports on payout percentages.
• GLI (Gaming Laboratories International): Global standard for RNG and platform testing across 480+ jurisdictions.
• SIQ Ljubljana: European certification body with focus on EU regulatory compliance.

We re-evaluate the licensing status of every listed operator at least once every 90 days. If a casino loses its licence, receives a public sanction, or fails to resolve a significant number of player complaints, it is removed from our ratings immediately. Our goal is to make sure that every recommendation on this site points to an operator that meets current regulatory standards at the time of publication.

Players are ultimately responsible for verifying that online gambling is legal in their own jurisdiction before registering with any operator. Licensing requirements and gambling laws differ significantly between countries, and in some regions, access to certain platforms may be restricted. We do not provide legal advice, and the information on this page should not be interpreted as such.

If you have questions about the licensing status of any casino listed on our site, or if you believe an operator’s licence information is outdated, contact our team at [email protected]. We investigate every report and update our pages within 48 hours of confirming new information.
