How We Rate

Casino Maldives is an independent review site. Every operator we list is checked against the same fixed set of criteria, so scores can be compared fairly. This page explains exactly how we rate, and how we make money.

Our 14 scoring criteria

Each casino is scored out of 10 on the following, then weighted into one overall score:

1. Withdrawal speed — how quickly verified withdrawals are processed.
2. Payment options — range of deposit/withdrawal methods.
3. MVR & local friendliness — support for Maldivian Rufiyaa and local-friendly payments.
4. Licensing — held by a recognised regulator (e.g. MGA, Curaçao).
5. Security — SSL encryption and account protection.
6. Game range — number and variety of games.
7. Software providers — quality of studios (e.g. Pragmatic, Evolution, NetEnt).
8. Live casino — live dealer tables and streaming quality.
9. Welcome bonus value — size of the offer.
10. Bonus fairness — wagering requirements and terms.
11. Mobile experience — how well the site/app works on phones.
12. Customer support — speed and helpfulness.
13. Reputation — track record and player feedback.
14. Responsible-gambling tools — deposit limits, self-exclusion, etc.

How we score

We weight withdrawal speed, licensing and security most heavily, because they affect whether you actually get paid and stay safe. Bonus headline value is weighted less than bonus fairness. Scores are reviewed and refreshed regularly as operators change their terms.

How we make money — affiliate disclosure

Some links on this site are affiliate links. If you sign up through one, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. This is how we keep the site free. It does not change a casino’s score or its position in our rankings — those are based only on the criteria above. We aim to be transparent: where a brand is a commercial partner, it is labelled.
