Watchlist

Standing is applied before ranking and is based on operating history and verifiable licensing. It never affects rank position, which is deposit volume and nothing else.

Operators currently on the watchlist with the reason for each

#	Casino	Volume	Founded	Standing	Reason
#3	Rainbet	~$360M	2023	Watchlist	Operates on an Anjouan licence. The Comoros Central Bank states the bodies issuing Anjouan gaming licences have no legal existence in the country.
#4	Duel	~$255M	2025	Watchlist	Thirteen months of operating history, and an Anjouan licence whose issuing authority the Comoros Central Bank says has no legal existence. The founder has a documented nine year record through CSGOEmpire.
#7	1WIN	~$110M	2018	Watchlist	Compliance review not complete. Operator profile and market focus differ materially from the rest of the tracked set, and no Originals RTP is published.
#8	BC.Game	~$55M	2017	Watchlist	Operating entity changed in 2024 and the brand now runs on an Anjouan licence, whose issuing authority the Comoros Central Bank says has no legal existence. Deposit volume is down sharply on both measures.

Flagged	Documented court or regulatory findings on non payment, or unresolved solvency question	Removed

The dominant reason right now

Three of the operators here hold Anjouan licences. The Comoros Central Bank has described the bodies issuing those licences as fictitious structures with no legal existence in the country, which means there is no register to verify against and no complaints route that functions.

That is a licensing question rather than a conduct question, and it applies regardless of how well an operator behaves day to day. The detail

Why watchlist operators still get a link

Because a short record or a weak licence is information, not a verdict. Duel has the best Originals maths in the market and a founder with a nine year track record. Rainbet is growing faster than almost anyone.

We publish the reason and let you decide. Only documented findings on non payment remove the link entirely. The full methodology
