How we compare TrustDice alternatives: what we check, and where it comes from
Every casino on this site is compared with TrustDice on the same six questions, answered from the same three kinds of source: the licence registers, the casino's own terms, and, in 2 cases, an account with our own money in it. Here is the method, the dates behind it, and what we deliberately leave out.
The six questions every casino gets
- Licence: what the Curaçao Gaming Authority portal and the Anjouan register return for the casino's domain: holder, number, status.
- Documents: when the casino's own terms say it asks for KYC: a figure, at its discretion, or at sign-up.
- Withdrawals: any processing window, ceiling or instalment rule printed in the terms.
- Coins: the coins the cashier or coin list names.
- Lobby: the studios in the casino's own provider list.
- Bonus: the welcome offer as displayed, with the date.
TrustDice is the yardstick for all six, and the answers are on the TrustDice alternatives listing.
Three kinds of source, never blended
A published clause. The casino's own terms, with the clause number wherever the document carries one: Vave's 8.7, Stake's 4.8, Wild.io's 9.6. Where our summary and the casino's terms disagree, the terms are right.
Our own money. Exactly two tests: TrustDice in May 2026 and Vave on 28 August 2026. At TrustDice, crypto withdrawals took ten to fifteen minutes and needed no documents until about 5,000 USDT in total; then came Veriff and a second request by email. At Vave, no ID was requested up to 5,000 USDT. A test result is one account on one date, and every page that uses one says so.
A stated unknown. Where no clause was read and no test was run, the page says not published or not read; never a guess, never a figure borrowed from another site.
Licence registers, and their quirks
We query both registers by domain, because a register answers even when the casino says nothing, and a number in a footer is only a claim until a register confirms it. Two caveats travel with every licence line. Curaçao publishes a certificate portal and a PDF register that disagree on dates and statuses for the same numbers; we use the portal, because it answers by domain. The Anjouan register marks every record valid, including records whose expiry date has passed, so we read the date rather than the word. How this plays out for TrustDice is on Is TrustDice legit?.
What TrustDice does not publish
Three things a player would want are missing from TrustDice's documents: a withdrawal processing window, a verification threshold and a withdrawal ceiling. We do not fill those cells with our own test and call it a rule. The test goes in its own column, marked as ours; the clause column says none published. The practical side of that gap — how the check runs and how to pass it — is on TrustDice withdrawal time and KYC.
Country lists
Casinos publish lists of countries they do not accept. We read them, but a country missing from a list is not a promise that the casino accepts players from there, and a list is often a template copied from a supplier. No page on this site tells you whether gambling is legal where you live, and none explains how to get around a block.
Reading dates
Every figure carries the date it was read:
- May 2026: our TrustDice account.
- 25 August 2026: casino pages, cashiers, bonuses and lobbies captured.
- 26 August 2026: the licence registers queried for every brand.
- 28 August 2026: our Vave account.
- 2 September 2026: Vave's licence re-read directly.
- 8 September 2026: Mega Dice searched in both registers.
When a figure changes, the page is updated with the new date.
What we never do
- Use Casino Guru, Trustpilot or other comparison sites as a source.
- Claim a test we did not run.
- Publish countdowns, invented scarcity or fake player counts.
- Explain how to get around a country block or a self-exclusion scheme.
- Link to a casino other than our advertiser, Vave, whose link is the only paid placement here.
How the order on the listing works
Vave is our advertiser and sits first. The rest are ordered by how closely they match what people come to TrustDice for: crypto play, fast withdrawals, late or no KYC, dice and originals — with Wild.io as the closest on games and DuckDice as the pick for dice.
