Terms and Conditions – Online Casinos USA

These terms and conditions govern your use of kregviesselman.com ("the site", "we", "us"). By accessing or using any part of this site, you agree to be bound by what follows. If you do not agree, please do not use the site. We may update these terms from time to time; the date shown at the top of this page reflects when they were last reviewed.

What This Site Is and What It Is Not

Online Casinos USA is an independent comparison and review website. We research, evaluate and publish editorial content about real-money online casinos available to residents of the United States. We do not operate a casino, take deposits, handle wagers or process withdrawals. Nothing on this site constitutes gambling services of any kind.

The rankings, ratings and write-ups you see on pages such as our Best Online Casinos USA guide reflect our editorial assessment only. They are not endorsements, warranties or guarantees of any outcome — financial or otherwise. Every casino listed on this site is an independent third-party business. We have no control over their software, promotions, licensing status, payment processing or customer service.

Commercial Relationships and Affiliate Disclosure

Some of the casinos featured on this site pay us a commission when a reader follows a link from our pages and subsequently registers or deposits. This is how independent comparison sites of this kind are funded.

Commercial relationships do not determine rankings or editorial ratings. Our methodology — described on individual review pages — is applied consistently. A casino cannot buy a higher position on this site, and a casino that does not have a commercial arrangement with us may still appear if our research supports its inclusion.

Where a headline offer is shown alongside a casino listing, material conditions apply. Bonuses typically carry wagering requirements, game restrictions, time limits and maximum withdrawal caps. You should read the casino's own terms in full before claiming any offer. We make every effort to keep offer details accurate, but promotional terms change frequently; the casino's own website is the authoritative source.

Eligibility and Legal Responsibility

Real-money online gambling in the United States is regulated at the state level. Legal access to licensed online casinos varies significantly depending on where you are located. It is your sole responsibility to determine whether online gambling is lawful in your state before registering with any casino.

Age: You must be at least 21 years old to gamble at most licensed US online casinos. Some states set different thresholds for specific gambling activities; check your state's rules.
Physical presence: Licensed US online casinos are required by law to verify that you are physically located within a permitted state at the time you play, typically through geolocation technology.
Residency: Some operators impose additional residency requirements. Review each casino's eligibility terms before signing up.

We do not verify the legal status of gambling in every jurisdiction. Nothing on this site constitutes legal advice. If you are unsure whether online gambling is permitted in your state, consult the relevant state gaming authority or a qualified legal professional.

Accuracy of Information

We make reasonable efforts to ensure that the information published on this site is accurate and up to date at the time of publication. However, the online casino industry moves quickly. Bonus offers change, licensing arrangements are updated, and operators amend their terms without notice.

All editorial ratings reflect our assessment at the time of review and are not customer scores or independently audited grades. Advertised bonus values, free spin counts and match percentages are taken from operator communications; they are not tested results. You should always verify current terms directly with the casino before depositing.

We accept no liability for decisions made on the basis of information found on this site, including decisions to register with, deposit at or withdraw from any casino we have reviewed.

How We Assess the Casinos on This Site

Our editorial process covers the following areas for every casino we review. Commission arrangements play no part in how these criteria are scored.

Licensing and regulation: We check whether the operator holds a valid licence from a recognised US state gaming authority or, for offshore casinos accessible to US players, a reputable international body. A licence matters because it requires operators to meet minimum standards for fairness, security and player fund protection.
Bonus value and terms: We assess the advertised welcome offer alongside the wagering requirements, game contributions, time limits, maximum bet rules and withdrawal caps that govern it.
Game fairness: Reputable casinos use certified random number generators (RNGs) for slots, virtual table games and other non-live content. We look for evidence of independent testing by bodies such as eCOGRA, iTech Labs or GLI.
Return to Player (RTP): RTP is a long-term statistical average calculated over millions of rounds. It does not predict what any individual player will win or lose in a session. We note published RTPs where available, but we do not present them as guaranteed return figures.
Payment methods and withdrawal times: We review the deposit and withdrawal options available to US players, including processing times, fees and any limits that apply.
Security: We check that the site uses HTTPS encryption and review any published information security practices.
Customer support: We note the support channels available — live chat, email, telephone — and the hours of operation where published.
Identity verification (KYC): US-licensed casinos are required to verify player identity before processing withdrawals. We note where this is likely to apply and what documents are typically requested.

Responsible Gambling

Online gambling carries real financial risk. Outcomes in casino games are determined by chance; no strategy, system or betting pattern can overcome the house edge over time. We do not endorse any claim of guaranteed profit, and nothing on this site should be read as encouragement to gamble beyond your means.

We strongly encourage all readers to:

Set deposit, loss and time limits before playing, using the responsible gambling tools built into any licensed casino platform.
Never gamble with borrowed money or funds needed for essential expenses.
Take breaks and avoid chasing losses.
Self-exclude using the casino's own programme or a state-level exclusion scheme if gambling stops being enjoyable or begins to affect your finances or wellbeing.

If you or someone you know needs support, the following organisations can help:

National Council on Problem Gambling (NCPG): ncpgambling.org — helpline 1-800-522-4700, available 24/7.
Gamblers Anonymous: gamblersanonymous.org — peer support meetings across the US.
Your state's gaming authority may also operate or fund dedicated problem gambling support lines.
