Quick answer NonGamstop Hub is an independent UK consumer guide. It explains non-GAMSTOP and offshore casinos, what UK law says about them, and where to get help. We never list, rank or link to casinos that are not licensed by the Gambling Commission.
Why does this site exist?
Search for “non GAMSTOP casinos” and most of what you find are lists of offshore sites, ranked by commission. The Gambling Commission has described tracking exactly those pages, which “recommend a list of gambling websites, often targeted at a specific consumer group”, to map the illegal market. Many of the people reading them have self-excluded.
We built NonGamstop Hub to give the same searchers something different: the facts about what those sites are, what you give up by using them, and where to find support. We use the search terms people actually type, because that is how people find information. The answers are written for the reader’s benefit, not an operator’s.
What will you never find here?
- A list, ranking, review or link to any casino, bookmaker or gambling site that is not licensed by the Gambling Commission.
- Advice on getting around GAMSTOP, blocking software or bank blocks.
- “Risk-free” or “guaranteed win” language.
- Content aimed at under-18s or designed to appeal to under-25s.
Who writes it?
Our content is written and maintained by Hannah Whitlock, our Consumer Editor. Hannah writes about consumer rights and gambling regulation in Great Britain, working from primary sources: the Gambling Commission, legislation.gov.uk, GOV.UK, the ASA and the support organisations themselves. Read more on Hannah’s author page.
How is the site funded?
Some links on our UK-licensed alternatives page may earn us a commission if a reader who is not self-excluded signs up at a UKGC-licensed casino. That page carries a clear warning for anyone on GAMSTOP, and no casino links appear on our support pages. Commission never decides whether a casino is listed: only an active Gambling Commission licence does. See our affiliate disclosure.
How do we keep it accurate?
Every statement of UK law or regulation links to its source, with the date we checked it. When we cannot verify something from a primary source, we leave it out. If you spot an error, tell us and we will correct it. Our editorial policy and how we research pages explain the detail.
Are we connected to GAMSTOP or the Gambling Commission?
No. NonGamstop Hub is an independent publisher. We are not a gambling operator, we are not licensed by the Gambling Commission, and we are not connected to GAMSTOP, which is run by The National Online Self Exclusion Scheme Limited. We use the word GAMSTOP only to describe the scheme and the searches people make about it.
