How We Conduct Casino Reviews For Arab Players
At Arab Online Casino, we start by testing gambling sites firsthand, which means signing up, depositing money, and playing games to measure the actual player experience. Our casino reviews focus on five important areas:
- Licensing
- Game Quality
- Payment Reliability
- Customer Support
- Casino Fairness
Licensing and Security Checks
Every casino we review must have a valid license. It must come from a reputable authority like Curacao eGaming or Malta Gaming Authority. These licenses ensure the gambling site follows the rules, ensures player protection, and maintains fair play. Our team verifies SSL encryption on the website and checks for security audits performed by third parties.
If a gambling platform lacks these essential security tools, we do not consider and add it to our list. Moreover, anyone can create a website and add a fake license number in the footer section. That’s why we cross-reference licenses with the official databases to avoid scams and ensure Arab players have a reliable gambling experience.
Game Selection and Software Providers
A professional platform has a variety of casino games. Our team looks for gambling sites with at least 500 or 1000 games. We check the slots’ quality and focus on the technical aspects of table games and live dealer options.
More importantly, we check which company provides these games. Credible developers like Microgaming, NetEnt, and Evolution Gaming ensure fairness. These companies use certified RNGs (random number generators) and advanced machine learning algorithms to ensure games have fair, random, and unbiased outcomes.
Nowadays, online casinos feature dozens of software providers, but not all of them are reliable. If a casino only features unverified game providers, our team will investigate further. We believe that games must load quickly, run without hassle on mobile devices, and include rules for players.
Payment Methods and Withdrawal Speed
Before writing casino reviews, we consider several factors, including casino payment methods and their withdrawal speeds and reliability. Fast and hassle-free payouts are the most important factors for us. We test deposit and withdrawal methods that are suitable for Arab players.
Although credit cards are safe for international players, they are not reliable for players in the world, particularly in the GCC. For instance, UAE, Qatar, Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, and Saudi Arabia have not legalized online gambling yet. Banks and financial organizations can track transactions made via credit and debit cards. Thus, this can lead to penalties based on the country’s laws.
On the other hand, we check a casino based on options like e-wallets and cryptocurrencies. A reliable casino processes withdrawals between 12 and 24 hours for e-wallets and 3 to 5 hours for cryptocurrencies. We also check fees and exclude platforms with higher transaction charges or at least mention the information in casino reviews.
Customer Support Responsiveness
Ever been stuck with a login issue at 2 AM? We have. That’s why we test support channels, which include live chat, phone, and email, at different times. A professional casino responds in under 3 minutes via live chat and within 12 to 24 hours by email.
We also check if support agents speak Arabic and provide clear and practical answers. Our team excludes a casino from the list if the customer support team repeatedly has canned responses.
Fairness and Bonus Transparency
Everyone loves big casino bonuses. However, flashy bonuses are traps for new players from Arab countries. Unlicensed casinos usually offer unrealistic bonuses. Even if the casino has a license, we still check the rules. The first thing is wagering requirements – if it is above 40x, we clearly mention the information in our casino reviews.
Moreover, our team verifies the RTP or payout rates for slots and table games. We choose casinos with at least 93% RTP. The RTP is even better if it is more than 97%. Anything below 90% raises concerns. Therefore, we avoid casinos that restrict winds from free spins or fail to publish audit reports. Transparency is very important for us at Arab Online Casino when writing casino reviews!
