About Us
Sites like MyStake was built for one specific reader: someone who already has a MyStake account, or knows what one looks like, and wants a straight answer on where else to play. We don't cover the whole online gambling market. We cover offshore, crypto-friendly sites that operate the way MyStake does, and we compare them on the handful of things that actually decide whether switching is worth it.
What This Site Does and Doesn't Do
We rank real-money offshore casino and sportsbook sites against MyStake on state acceptance, welcome-bonus terms, withdrawal speed, payment methods, game and sports library, and licensing history. Every site on our list — including Raging Bull, Ignition, Slots of Vegas, Ducky Luck, Slots and Casino, Card Crush, Zumba Cards, Casino Extreme and Dream Royale — is scored against the same criteria, not judged on marketing copy.
We don't cover every gambling vertical. If you're looking for a broader look at options outside this niche, our page on non-GamStop casinos for UK players covers a different market entirely with its own licensing picture — worth a read if that applies to you, but it's not what this site is built around.
How We Make Money
Some of the sites listed on sunnivasol.com pay us a commission when a reader signs up through a link on this site. That's how independent comparison sites like this one stay running without charging readers. Commission never decides ranking order or editorial rating — a site that pays nothing and a site that pays a referral fee are scored on the same table, using the same factors. If we think a site has a weak withdrawal history or a rough bonus structure, we say so regardless of what it pays us.
How We Assess Each Site
Our scoring is built around what actually changes a player's experience after signup, not what looks good in an ad:
- State acceptance — offshore sites don't accept every US state, and the restricted list shifts as states issue cease-and-desist orders against offshore operators. We check current acceptance at the time each page is fact-checked rather than assuming a list stays fixed.
- Bonus terms, not just headline size — a 500% match with a steep rollover requirement can be worth less than a smaller bonus with fair wagering conditions. We look at match percentage, wagering multiplier, max cashout caps, and which games count toward clearing the bonus.
- Payment reality — how fast crypto withdrawals actually move versus card or bank transfer, what limits and fees apply per method, and which cryptocurrencies each site supports.
- Game and sportsbook scope — slot count and providers, live dealer availability, and for sportsbooks, market depth, live betting, and racebook or esports coverage where offered.
- Licensing and track record — where a site is licensed (typically Curaçao, Anjouan, or Panama), how long it's operated, and whether it has a visible pattern of unresolved player complaints.
None of these sites are reviewed through actual deposits or withdrawals on our end. Our assessments come from researching published terms, licensing records, payment documentation, and publicly reported player experiences — not from testing gameplay ourselves. We're upfront about that limitation because claiming otherwise would be misleading.
What We Won't Tell You to Do
We won't tell readers to use a VPN, false address, or fake ID to get around a state restriction — that's a legal and account-security risk we're not going to frame as a workaround. If a site geo-blocks your state, the honest options are a sweepstakes-model site (which pays out prizes, not cash, under a different legal structure) or, if your state has regulated online gambling, a licensed local operator. We also won't blur real-money and sweepstakes products together; they're different legal categories and we label them as such wherever both come up.
Every offshore site named on this page operates outside US regulatory oversight. None of them are licensed by a US state or federal authority, and if something goes wrong with a withdrawal or account dispute, there's no US regulator to escalate it to. That's a structural fact about this industry, not a knock on any one operator, and it's worth weighing before you deposit anywhere on this list.
Age and Responsible Gambling
Everything reviewed on this site is intended for readers 21 and older, and some listed sites set their own minimum at 18 — always check the operator's stated age requirement before signing up, and never below your state's legal minimum. If gambling stops feeling like entertainment, the National Problem Gambling Helpline (1-800-GAMBLER) is free and confidential. Most sites we review offer deposit limits, cooling-off periods, or self-exclusion tools, and we note where those tools exist in each review.
