Stake and 1win are often shortlisted together. Below we compare them on what decides whether a casino is worth your deposit: safety, bonus terms, payments, games and what players report.

1win is the safer pick on paper, with a CasinoGuru Safety Index of 8.7/10 against 7.9/10 for Stake.
Stake is licensed by Cura莽ao Gaming Authority, while 1win holds a license from Cura莽ao Gaming Authority. Both are offshore-style licenses, so the casino's own track record matters more than the license itself.
CasinoGuru lists 8 player complaints against Stake and 15 against 1win; bigger casinos naturally collect more, so read the number together with the Safety Index.
Stake has terms rated fair, while 1win's are rated unfair.

What players say
On Trustpilot Stake scores 3.9/5 (12,081 reviews) and 1win 1.7/5 (194 reviews). Casino reviews skew negative because unhappy players post more, so this counts for only 15% of our CasiScore rating.
Stake or 1win: which should you choose?

- Read the wagering and maximum bet rules of the bonus you plan to claim.
- Make sure your preferred withdrawal method is available, not just the deposit method.
