How we rank fast payout casinos

This page sets out the method behind the order on our comparison pages, including the parts we cannot measure and therefore do not claim.

The four criteria

Each site is assessed against the same four groups, in this order of weight.

Payout route

Which withdrawal methods the cashier supports, whether the quickest ones are open to standard accounts, and whether a stated processing time is published where a new player can find it.

Offer terms

The wagering basis and multiplier, the game weighting, the expiry window, the maximum win rule and any restriction on the deposit method used to claim.

Friction points

Pending period length, whether reverse withdrawal is on by default, when verification is requested, withdrawal minimums and caps, and fees on the cashout itself.

Clarity

Whether the operator states its rules in plain language rather than burying them, and whether the cashier is usable on a phone as well as a desktop browser.

What we record for every site

Before a site appears in a ranking, we record the operator name, the destination link, the current offer summary, the wagering basis, the expiry, the maximum win rule, the supported deposit and withdrawal methods, the operator stated processing time, the published withdrawal limits, the licence authority and the date each item was checked.

Each field has one recorded value. When the same offer appears in the hero panel, a ranking card and a comparison table, all three come from that value, so the page cannot contradict itself.

Operator stated against observed

We label a processing time as operator stated when it comes from the operator's own pages. We only describe a payout time as observed when there is a real test behind it, with the method, the amount, the verification state, timestamps and the number of attempts recorded. Where we have no test data, we say nothing about observed speed rather than filling the gap with an estimate.

What this method does not measure

  • We do not audit game fairness or random number generation. That is the job of the licensed testing houses.
  • We do not verify a licence by looking at a footer badge. We check the Gambling Commission public register.
  • We do not rate customer support on anecdotes, and we do not publish a satisfaction score we cannot evidence.
  • We do not publish an aggregate star rating, because a single number hides the terms that decide whether an offer is worth taking.

How commercial arrangements interact with the order

Some links on this site are advertising links that can earn us a commission. Commercial relationships can affect which operators appear on the site at all, because a site with no available programme may simply not be listed. We do not accept payment to move a specific operator above another within a published list, and the criteria above are applied the same way to every entry.

We will not claim that money has no influence anywhere on the site, since availability itself is commercial. The advertising disclosure covers this in more detail.

Review schedule

Offers are volatile, so they are rechecked at least weekly while a page is live, and the wider method and page content are reviewed at least monthly. An updated date changes only after a substantive review. We do not refresh dates to look current.

Corrections

If a figure on the site is wrong, tell us through the contact page and we will correct it and note the change. Editorial content is written and reviewed by Rhys Ashworth, Casino Payouts Content Reviewer.
