Independent casino comparison

About

A comparison site, and nothing more than that.

Jackpot Blueprint UK reviews UK-licensed online casinos from a single angle: how hard or easy each one is for somebody who has never used one. That focus decides everything here, including the subjects we leave alone.

What this site is

Five operators are reviewed in depth at any one time, each against the same eight criteria, and the results sit on the homepage as a table you can read in about a minute. Roughly forty UK-licensed brands stay on a watchlist behind that. When one of them changes something that would move a score — a lobby redesign, a studio dropped, a new app — it joins the queue for the next pass.

There is nothing to buy on this site and no account to open. It is a reference you read and then leave.

Where the money comes from

Affiliate commission, and only that. When somebody follows an operator link from here and later registers, the operator pays a fee. No operator pays to appear, to be placed higher, or to have an awkward criterion quietly dropped, and nobody sees a review before it publishes. If that arrangement ever changes, the affiliate disclosure page will say so before anything else on the site changes.

What we don't do

  • Run games. No games, no gaming software, no involvement in any round of play.
  • Handle money. No deposits, no withdrawals, no player balances — which is also why you will not find payment methods or payout times discussed anywhere on this site.
  • Regulate anyone. That is the UK Gambling Commission's job. We check that a licence exists and that its number is published where it should be, and that is the extent of it.
  • Promise outcomes. Every game at every operator covered here carries a house edge. A comparison table does not change the maths.
  • Collect reader data we have no use for. The privacy policy is short because there genuinely is very little to describe.

How a review gets done

Each site is used rather than skim-read. The lobby gets walked through on a laptop and on a phone, the account area gets opened to see how many taps stand between a new visitor and a deposit limit, and the welcome-offer terms get read far enough to find out whether the wagering requirement sits next to the headline or three clicks behind it. Notes go into the same eight-part template every time, which is what keeps a comparison honest across brands as unlike each other as 888 Casino and DragonBet.

Scores are half-stars out of five and they answer one question, not every question. A site can be a fine place for an experienced player and still finish at three and a half here, because the weighting leans toward the first hour rather than the hundredth.

When we get it wrong

Operators redesign lobbies, swap studios and restructure offers without announcing any of it, so parts of this site will drift out of date between passes. If something here no longer matches what you see on the operator's own site, the contact page has an address — corrections of that kind are the most useful mail we get. Every page carries the date it was last checked, so you can judge how much weight to give it.

Not affiliated with any operator

Jackpot Blueprint UK is not owned by, part of, or a trading name of any gambling operator. Brand names and logos on this site belong to their owners and appear here for identification in a review context. We are not the UK Gambling Commission, GAMSTOP, GamCare or GambleAware, and we cannot act on their behalf.
