ShadowBet Casino Review

Review last updated - September 2019.

OVERVIEW | 6.24/10


Shadow Bet Casino are one of the most notable casinos to run on the iGamingCloud platform.  This group are dual licensed - firstly in Malta by the MGA and secondly in the United Kingdom by the UKGC.  They offer a range of games by: Play 'n Go, NYX Gaming, Yggdrasil, Quickspin, Thunderkick, Scientific Games, ELK StudiosNet Entertainment and Microgaming. The home page features a dark grey and yellow colour pallet.

TRUSTWORTHINESS | 3/10


ThePOGG.com serves as an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) service for Shadow Bet Casino as part of their MGA license requirements. This means that we can offer legally binding rulings for all complaints submitted to this service from jurisdictions subject to the MGA license.

ShadowBet casino have chosen to continue to support affiliates that were identified conducting marketing activity intended to target gambling addicts and channel them to unlicensed operators that would accept their play. We consider the activities of these affiliates to be entirely immoral and it to be a highly questionable decision for any operator to continue to partner with them.

Licensing | 10 / 10


ShadowBet hold the following gambling licenses :

  • United Kingdom Gambling Commission - The UKGC are widely considered to be the most reputable regulators involved in the online gambling market. They do not manage complaints for players directly, instead requiring their operators to appoint a UKGC accredited Alternative Dispute Resolution service. As such the value of this license for players depends largely on the professionalism of the ADR service utilised. ShadowBet currently use IBAS. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.
  • Malta Gaming Authority - In our experience the MGA is the best regulatory authority in terms of the management of player complaints. Their complaints team is open and cooperative in the discussion of player issues and we've managed to resolve a number of credible player issues working with the MGA. ThePOGG.com acts as the ADR service used by Shadow Bet for their MGA license. You can find further information regarding this regulator's complaint policies here.

Closing Thoughts


We are uncomfortable continuing to associate our service with any operator that works with affiliates that have actively tried to target gambling addicts and channel them to rogue, unlicensed operators. These affiliates have chosen to engage a marketing strategy that is totally immoral and simply removing the offending content does not undo the harm they've done. Furthermore, given that the VAST majority of operators whose attention we brought to this issue immediately acted to terminate their relationship with the offending affiliates, ShadowBet have put themselves in a questionable minority by deciding to overlook these activities and continuing to partner with these sites.

Associated By Company


The below operators are run by the same company as this operator. This means that, for well regulated operators, self-exclusions or bonus bans may carry over to these properties. For poorly licensed, or unlicensed operators, it is good to know which other sites are being run by the same company, so you can avoid companies that have mistreated you in the past.

Other Associations


We believe the below operators to be associated with this operator in some fashion that is not immediately transparent. More information about these connections is usually available in the Trustworthiness section of the review.
