Our Story
How we went from frustrated players to industry watchdogs
The Frustration
Our founder lost $2,000 to a casino that multiple "top-rated" review sites recommended. Something had to change.
The Research
We spent 6 months analyzing 200+ casino review sites. Found that 80% had undisclosed affiliate relationships affecting their ratings.
Casino.Band Launches
We launched with a simple promise: test casinos with real money, report what we find, remove casinos that fail our standards.
Growing Impact
Removed 15 casinos from our recommended list after they failed re-testing. Saved players an estimated $500K in potential losses.
Global Expansion
Expanded coverage to USA, Canada, UK, and Australia. Team grew to include specialists from each region.
The Future
Launching real-time casino monitoring, player feedback integration, and even more transparent testing methodology.
What We Actually Do
Our testing methodology in plain English
Deposit Real Money
We don't use demo accounts. Every casino review involves actual deposits ranging from $100-$500.
Test Withdrawals
We withdraw $1,000-$5,000 from every casino and time the process. Any delays or issues are documented.
Verify Licenses
We check every license claim directly with the regulatory body. Fake licenses = immediate blacklist.
Monitor Continuously
Casinos aren't reviewed once and forgotten. We re-test quarterly and update ratings accordingly.
What We Will NEVER Do
Casino.Band vs. Other Review Sites
See the difference for yourself
| Other Review Sites | Casino.Band |
|---|---|
Rate casinos based on affiliate commission rates | Rate casinos based on player experience and payout reliability |
Use stock photos and generic descriptions | Show actual screenshots from our testing sessions |
Never update old reviews | Re-test every casino quarterly |
Hide wagering requirement math | Calculate actual bonus value with clear formulas |
Recommend 50+ casinos as "top picks" | Curate a small list of genuinely excellent casinos |
"The gambling industry doesn't need more affiliate sites pretending to be review sites. It needs honest analysis from people who actually play."
