What people always ask us.
Is this site a casino? Can I place bets here?
No. PrimeCasinoReview is an editorial review and information site. We do not process registrations, deposits, bets or withdrawals. To play, you must register directly on the licensed operator's own website.
How do you know a casino is licensed in Portugal?
We verify each operator's license number directly against SRIJ's (Serviço de Regulação e Inspeção de Jogos) public registry of licensed entities at srij.turismodeportugal.pt before publishing any review.
Is it legal to play at online casinos in Portugal?
Yes, provided the operator holds an active SRIJ license and the player is 18 or older and resides where online gambling is permitted. Playing at operators without an SRIJ license is not legal or protected under Portuguese law.
What is the minimum age to gamble?
18, without exception. All SRIJ-licensed operators are required to verify a player's age and identity before allowing deposits.
Do you make money from this site?
We may earn an affiliate commission when a reader clicks a link to an operator and creates an account. This commission never influences our editorial score or review content. More detail on our Disclosure page.
What should I do if I feel I've lost control over gambling?
Free and confidential tools exist: you can self-exclude from all licensed operators through the SRIJ platform and contact the ICAD helpline at 1414 (weekdays, 10am–6pm). See more on our Responsible Gambling page.
Are reviews paid for by casinos?
We do not sell rankings or scores. Every casino is assessed using the same methodological criteria, regardless of any commercial relationship.
How often are reviews updated?
We review each license's status and key terms periodically throughout the year, and whenever we're alerted to a relevant change.
