How the Four Checks Work

Published Last updated

4shareCasino looks at every casino through the same four checks, so the three profiles in the online casino Malaysia comparison can be read side by side. Each check is a short set of plain questions, and every answer is something you could find yourself on the casino's public pages. Below are the fields recorded for each check, where the answers come from and what has not been confirmed.

What Each Check Looks At

Each check looks for the same details at every casino. Only what the pages actually show is written down, and nothing is filled in with a guess.

Check 1: Who Runs It and the Licence It Claims

This check asks whether a named company stands behind the site and what the site says about its licence. The fields recorded are:

  • The operating company's name and company number
  • The licence body or bodies the casino names
  • Where the licence badge link goes: a regulator's own site, another domain or nowhere
  • The status shown on that page, such as granted or "In Progress"
  • Any testing-lab seals shown in the footer

Check 2: Welcome Bonus Rules

The welcome offer is read from the casino's own terms, never from a banner alone. The fields recorded are:

  • Percent and maximum bonus
  • Minimum deposit to qualify
  • Turnover multiple, and whether it counts the deposit, the bonus or both
  • Games that count towards turnover
  • Days allowed and the maximum withdrawal from the offer
  • End date, and any phone, email or identity verification needed

Check 3: Ringgit In and Out

This check follows your money from your account to the casino and back again. The fields recorded are:

  • The cashier minimum deposit, and the separate minimum for the welcome bonus
  • The payment methods it names, such as e-wallets, banks and crypto
  • Any identity check needed before a first withdrawal
  • Any speed claim, quoted word for word as the casino's own marketing

Check 4: Support Desk

The last check records who you can reach and how, because a question about turnover or a stuck withdrawal needs an answer from a person. Opening hours, channels such as live chat, WhatsApp, WeChat, Line, Telegram or phone, and the languages offered are noted as each casino states them.

Where the Details Come From

Three kinds of source feed the checks: the casinos' own public pages, the licence pages their footers link to, and the publisher's casino data file, compiled in September 2026 from casino reviews already published online. No detail comes from a sign-up form or a private account, and every source with its read date is listed on a separate page.

How the Star Ratings Relate to the Checks

The star ratings are the publisher's editorial scores, and the order of the three casinos is the publisher's choice too. The four checks do not produce them, and no check carries a weight or a point value.

That means the two can disagree. The casino in first place shows the least licence paperwork: its licence badge is only a picture. The checks report that plainly instead of bending it to suit the order.

What the Four Checks Have Not Verified

The checks are desk research only, so several things have not been done:

  • No deposits, withdrawals or bonus claims were made at any of the three casinos.
  • No games were played.
  • Live chat response times were not measured.
  • No licence was confirmed on a regulator's own register.
  • The testing-lab certificates behind footer seals were not examined.
  • Speed claims are the casinos' own marketing and are quoted as such.

Each profile is put together by Hana Rahman, who reads the pages and dates every finding.

How Often Each Casino Is Re-read

The aim is to re-read each casino about once a month, and sooner when a reader reports a change. The date beside a finding moves only when that page has actually been read again, so an old date is a signal to check the casino's current terms yourself. If you spot something out of date, report a change and say which casino and which page.

Questions About the Four Checks

Why four checks and not a score out of 100?

A single score hides the detail you need. Four separate checks show that a casino can be strong on payments and thin on licence paperwork at the same time, and they leave the weighing to you.

Where does each answer in the checks come from?

From the casino's own public pages, the licence pages its footer links to, or the publisher's data file. Each answer in the grid carries a source tag and the date it was read, so you can open the same page and compare.

Why is the first pick the one with the least licence paperwork?

The order comes from the publisher's editorial scores, and the checks do not change it. The checks exist to show that gap openly, so you can weigh it before any money moves.

Can I ask for a detail to be re-read?

Yes. Write in with the casino's name and the page that changed, and the detail will be read again and given a new date if it has moved.
