Casino Review Quality Score Checklist

Here’s a rundown of our Canadian Online Casino Quality score checklist. This is how we score all the Canadian Casinos we review.

Bonuses

In Canadian online casino, Bonuses are King. Canuck casino players are the ultimate bonus hunters. We break down the best bonus deals and the fine print underneath, so you know what’s the best value.

Promotions

Ongoing promotions are a must for any good online casino. A good casino will constantly keep their promotions fresh with weekly, monthly and special occasion and holiday deals.

Security

Top-notch security can be judged by encryption level, 128 to 256 level encryption along with Secure Socket Layer is what you should be looking for at any online casino. Another sure sign of a good casino is a wide selection of online deposit options. Along with international

Game Selection

Online slots are the most popular online casino games in Canada, followed closely by online poker, online blackjack, online roulette and Live Dealer table games are really having a moment. Most Canadian online casinos should have a decent selection of these games, powered by excellent online casino software providers.

 Software

Software is hugely important for your online casino playing experience. Most experienced online casino software providers will have their favourite software brands. Software effects everything from game selection to bonus offers. But we don’t just look at what games are available, we look at software effects, graphics, file size, speed, stability and of course security. All of these features have their own unique character depending on each individual software platform.

Payment Methods

First off Canadian players want to be able to play in CAD. They also like to see a range of payment options that cater to their individual deposit needs. Some players have no qualms using their credit cards, others prefer to use e-wallets and there are even pre-paid options for those who really want to keep their online payment options anonymous.

Withdrawal Speed

Players want to be able to access their cash fast. It’s no fun seeing a balance you can’t access. A casino should only take 2 to 4 working days to process a release of funds. Of course this does depend on the payment method you use. But we think if you can deposit funds instantaneously, you should be able to access them in nearly as much time.

Established Casino Brands vs. The Latest Casino Brands

With new casino brands constantly on the casino scene, it’s no wonder Canadian casino players can feel a little bamboozled. Stick with a casino brand you know and like but don’t be afraid to try the latest online casinos as long as they’ve been properly vetted and verified.

Industry Standard Regulations

There are some very well respected industry bodies who regulate the international online casino industry. Ecogra is one of the main ones. We always take their seal of approval into consideration when reviewing new online casinos and we think you should too.
