How we score casinos
Every score on Canuck Cashout comes from one formula. The same facts always give the same number, whether or not the casino pays us a commission. The rules are below, and each review prints its own workings block by block.
The blocks and their weights
| Block | Weight | Rule |
|---|---|---|
| Withdrawals | 35% | Starts at 5. Crypto cash-outs +2. Ten or more withdrawal methods +1 (five or more +0.5, fifteen or more +1.5). Low cash-out minimum up to +1.5. Our own timed withdrawal: within an hour +1, within a day +0.5, over three days −1. |
| Licence and track record | 20% | Curaçao licence with a visible number 6, Kahnawake 6.5, Anjouan 5. A hidden licence number −1.5, a second licence +0.5. Years in business add up to 2. |
| Paying from Canada | 15% | Interac listed for withdrawals 10. No Interac, but USDT or USDC cash-outs 6.5, because a stablecoin does not swing in price while your withdrawal is pending. Other crypto only 5. |
| Game library | 12% | Fewer than 5,000 games 6, 15,000 or more 9.5. Over 100 studios +0.5. |
| Promo fairness | 10% | Rollover of 25x or less, or cash rewards with no rollover, 9. Each extra 5x step −1, floor 4. A cap on bonus winnings −0.5. No offer we could confirm: neutral 5. |
| Support | 8% | 24/7 live chat 8, shorter hours 6. |
The overall score is the weighted average of the six blocks, rounded to one decimal place.
Why withdrawals carry 35%
The site is built around one question: does the money come back, and how fast? So the withdrawals block outweighs everything else. A casino earns points for crypto cash-outs, a wide choice of withdrawal methods and a low minimum. Our own timed withdrawal then moves the score up or down.
Why "paying from Canada" is a separate block
Canadian banks often decline card payments to offshore gambling sites, and most of the casinos here are crypto-only. Interac for withdrawals earns the full 10. Without Interac, stablecoin cash-outs (USDT or USDC) earn 6.5, because their value does not move while a withdrawal is pending or while you sell at your exchange. Volatile coins only: 5.
Where the facts come from
Licence numbers, operators, payment methods, limits, blocked countries, game counts and promotions come from each casino's own pages and our accounts. On Oct 19, 2026 we cross-checked them with the casino's profile on LatestCasinoBonuses, and each review links to it. Timed withdrawals are logged with their date, method and result on our payout tests page.
What we will not do
- Sell positions or change a score because a casino pays more commission.
- Copy star ratings or player scores from other websites.
- Hide a missing licence number. If it is not displayed, the review says so and the score drops.
- List a casino we have not opened an account with.
When we re-check
Terms are re-checked at least every 90 days, and straight away when a reader reports a problem. The "last checked" date at the top of each page shows the latest pass.
