Why there is no order inside a band
We compute a weighted score. Here is the measurement that stops us printing it as a list.
The sheet, read down the column
The rules
Every band on this site is a count of these 18 questions. Each one has a page showing the whole register against it, so a reader can see whether a silence is one bookmaker being cagey or the entire market declining to answer.
71 silences across 218 questions that applied. The most answered is "Is it on the Gaming Commission of Ghana register?" with 0 silent; the least is "Can the lobby be counted from outside?" with 10.
Getting the money out
How the money leaves: the wording on the speed, the floor, the fee, and which wallets it travels on.
- What is the smallest amount you can take out? 3 answer · 9 silent · 1 excused
- Does it say what withdrawing costs? 5 answer · 7 silent · 1 excused
- Does it name the rails the money travels on? 9 answer · 4 silent
- How long does it say a payout takes? 10 answer · 3 silent
Register and ceilings
The Gaming Commission of Ghana entry, the licence number, the published caps, and how long the brand has traded.
- Is a stake or payout ceiling published? 8 answer · 5 silent
- Is a licence number published? 10 answer · 3 silent
- Is the year it started trading established? 12 answer · 1 silent
- Is it on the Gaming Commission of Ghana register? 13 answer · 0 silent
The lobby
Whether a catalogue can be counted, whether the studios behind it are named, and whether crash games are settled either way.
- Can the lobby be counted from outside? 1 answer · 10 silent · 2 excused
- Are the studios behind the games named? 6 answer · 5 silent · 2 excused
- Is it settled whether crash games are in the lobby? 7 answer · 4 silent · 2 excused
Reaching a person
A number, an address, and a straight answer about whether anyone is there at three in the morning.
- Is it settled whether chat runs around the clock? 8 answer · 5 silent
- Is there an email address? 10 answer · 3 silent
- Is there a phone number? 11 answer · 2 silent
What is on offer
Whether the headline offer is the operator’s own claim or somebody else’s, and whether its terms are on a page you can open.
- Is the welcome offer the operator’s own claim? 7 answer · 6 silent
- Is the playthrough on that offer published? 6 answer · 3 silent · 4 excused
- Is there a stated ceiling on that offer? 8 answer · 1 silent · 4 excused
- Are the promotions running now listed anywhere? 13 answer · 0 silent
The arguments
Five pages that are written rather than computed, because an argument cannot be derived from a fact base. They are kept together so they can be counted.
How to check a bookmaker’s licence yourself
The register is public, it is short, and it settles in a minute what an affiliate page cannot settle at all.
What tax you pay on a win in Ghana
Nothing today. That answer is only three years old and the honest version has to carry the date.
What a band does not tell you
The rule has a bias, it is a big one, and it runs in the flattering direction.
Before you open an account
Six things to find on a bookmaker’s own pages, in the order they will matter to you.
About the sheet
- What is a question page for?
- It takes one question and shows the whole register against it: who answers, what they answer with, who is silent, and who is not being asked. It is the same evidence as a bookmaker’s own page, read down the column instead of across the row.
- Do the questions change?
- The set is fixed and every book is measured against all of it. If a question is added, every band on the site is recomputed on the next build rather than being edited page by page, because a band stated in prose is a band that can outlive its data.
