How We Rate Mobile Online Casinos
When testing and evaluating mobile casinos, our expert team here at OLBG has tried and tested every element a mobile site has to offer to cherry-pick only the very best. Our top 10 list has been curated using the following criteria:
- UKGC Licensed: All casino sites, including mobile ones, found at OLBG are licensed by the Gambling Commission, the UK’s governing body for online gambling. This means all sites comply with legal and regulatory requirements, are safe to play at, protect your data and offer responsible gambling tools to ensure your safety at all times. Check if any casino is licensed in the UK by visiting the Gambling Commission’s Public Register.
- Mobile-Friendly: The top casino sites are compatible with mobile, tablet, laptop and PC devices as standard. Using HTML5 technology, they will adapt to whatever smartphone device you use and should offer the same functionality as their desktop counterparts.
- Design & User Experience: The mobile casino site needs to be easy to use offering simple navigation, a search function and fast loading times to ensure a smooth and pleasant gaming experience.
- Mobile Casino Games: A huge aspect to consider is what casino games and slots a mobile casino has to offer. Look out for table games such as roulette and blackjack, live dealer options and a huge range of slot games from reputation providers including Evolution, Pragmatic Play, Play ‘n GO and Playtech.
- Mobile Payment Methods: Depositing and withdrawing funds is key to your casino experience so keep an eye out for mobile-friendly payment options including Apple Pay (iOS), Google Pay (Android), PayPal, Boku, MuchBetter and Pay by Phone/Mobile.
- Bonuses & Offers: Casino bonuses are normally offered when you sign up to mobile casinos but the better ones will have mobile-only offers (i.e. when you verify your mobile number) including free spins, slot tournaments, cashback and match bonuses.
- Customer Support: Round-the-clock customer support and Live Chat are essential for all the best mobile casinos. Being able to contact a dedicated team to deal with any issues is a must with a detailed FAQs or Help section is also imperative. A freephone UK number to call is also very handy, especially if you’re on the go.
What is a Mobile Casino?
A mobile casino site is the same as its desktop counterpart but has been designed for play on smartphone and tablet devices specifically. They allow you to play your favourite casino games on the go as well offering the same functionality that a laptop or PC does.
- According to StatCounter’s Desktop vs Mobile vs Tablet Market Share Worldwide report, 60.08% use mobile devices whilst 37.85% use desktop devices. 2.07% use tablets.
- The Gambling Commission’s online survey in 2020 looked at online gambling behaviour, 50% of online gamblers use mobile devices with 74% of in-play bettors using handheld devices.
Online casinos have cottoned on to this naturally and create sites using HTML5 technology. This allows the site to adapt to any device you use, whether it’s a smartphone, tablet, desktop computer or laptop.
There has been a meteoric rise in new mobile casinos which offer the same functionality as their desktop equivalents. You can play your favourite casino games, deposit with ease, withdraw winnings and contact customer support all from the convenience of your mobile, anywhere you choose to go.
As a result, there has been a rise in casino apps. Online mobile casinos have taken things one step further and created dedicated iOS and Android apps with the casino’s app permanently on your smartphone device (until you delete it of course).
Offering the same functionality as mobile casino sites, promotions and offers are leveraged using push notifications to provide time-sensitive updates on new slot releases, exclusive bonuses, slot tournaments and much more. For more details, check out OLBG’s guide to casino mobile apps.

Adding Shortcuts to your Smartphone Device
If you don’t want to download a casino app, you can access your favourite mobile casino by adding a shortcut. This allows you to open the casino without typing in the URL every time you want to play.
To do this, simply open your device’s mobile browser and enter the URL of the online casino you want to add. Here is what you need to do on both iOS and Android devices:
- iOS: Press the ‘arrow’ icon and select the ‘Add to Home Screen’ option
- Android: Press the ‘3 dots’ icon and select to ‘Add to Home Screen’ option
You can also add a custom name for your casino. Finally, this also applies to tablet devices.
Mobile Casino Games
As touched on above in the ‘How We Rate’ section, having a large selection of the best casino games is vital. Whilst it’s rare for casino games to be available just on desktop devices, all providers these days use HTML5 technology ensuring they adapt to whatever device you use.
Looking at live dealer casino games, mobile casinos must be fast so you can place your bets and interact with the dealers in real time.
If you take online slot games in particular, the rise of Portrait Mode has been evident with more and more players opting to play on smartphones. Many slot studios are now ‘Mobile First’ with their games taking up more of your screen when your smartphone is positioned vertically. Below are the top slot providers who create their slot games with mobile players as a priority:
- Push Gaming: Established in 2010, Push Gaming are a mobile-first studio with a rather distinct and high-definition look to their games. Focusing on quality rather than quantity, they’ve created some of the best slot games online including Fat Rabbit, Razor Returns and Jammin’ Jars.
- 4ThePlayer: Whilst they don’t offer the biggest selection of slots, 4ThePlayer has a specifically-created Big Reel Portrait Mode which occupies a lot more of your smartphone screen and sees the reels stacked up on top of each other and spinning from right to left. Games I recommend include 9K Yeti, 5k Gold Mine Dream Drop and 4 Fantastic Fish.
- Pragmatic Play: Pragmatic Play is arguably the most popular slot studio in the UK right now. With the Big Bass slot series, games such as Sweet Bonanza, Sugar Rush and Gates of Olympus, there are many Megaways slots as well as new releases weekly. All their games are available at mobile casinos with their most popular games the subject of many a casino’s free spins or welcome offers.
- Nolimit City: Compatible with all devices, Nolimit City are known for their controversial themes, insane volatility, huge max win potential and innovative mechanics. Popular choices include Tombstone RIP (300,000 x bet max wins), Serial, Fire in the Hole, San Quentin and Book of Shadows.
- Big Time Gaming: Big Time Gaming (or BTG for short) is the inventor of Megaways slots with cult favourites such as Bonanza Megaways, White Rabbit Megaways and Rasputin Megaways as the most popular. They have several rock music-inspired games including Danger High Voltage and Lil’ Devil.
- Hacksaw Gaming: Online since 2018, Hacksaw Gaming has made quite a stir in a relatively short period. Offering excellent graphics and super soundtracks, popular games include Hand of Anubis, 2 Wild 2 Die, Bloodthirst and RIP City.
- NetEnt: One the biggest slot providers ever, NetEnt is responsible for some of the world’s favourite slot games including Starburst, Gonzo’s Quest, Dead or Alive 2 and Mega Fortune. Available to play on smartphones, all their old games have been revamped to be mobile and tablet-friendly.
- Play ‘n GO: Play ‘n GO is another highly-rated studio with favourites such as Book of Dead, Reactoonz, Legacy of Dead and Viking Runecraft. Offering smooth gameplay and excellent graphics, they release new slots every week.
- Playtech: Responsible for some of the most-loved slots of all time including the Age of the Gods series, Great Blue and Jackpot Giant, they are specialists in branded slots and live casino games.
Dedicated Mobile Payment Methods
Mobile gambling sites will come with a variety of payment methods for both deposits and withdrawing funds. Being able to deposit and withdraw safely using mobile-specific options is a big factor in how OLBG views mobile-friendly casinos.

With no need to enter any personal financial information, PayPal is used by over 431 million people and can be used for online shopping at retailers such as eBay, ASOS, Nike, Argos and River Island.
- Debit Cards: Used by the vast majority of players, Mastercard, VISA or Maestro debit cards are available to use at the majority of mobile casino sites. They are also valid for all welcome bonus offers.
Mobile Casino Bonuses
With so many players playing on mobile devices, it’s only natural that casino sites have welcome offers and promotions for their users. All types of casino bonuses are available at mobile casinos including:
