Casino tools for Irish players: bonus calculator, house edge and licence check
Four small instruments that answer the questions a promotion page is designed to make you forget to ask.
Bonus wagering calculator
Deposit, match, wagering multiple and game weighting in, the real playthrough and its expected cost out.
OpenTool 02House edge calculator
Pick a game and a bet, get the expected cost per hour. Blackjack at 0.5 percent looks very different from a side bet at 8.
OpenTool 03Licence check
Type a casino name and see whether its licence checked out at the regulator register.
OpenTool 04Ireland licence tracker
The Gambling Regulation Act 2024 rollout, phase by phase, and the register of operators as it fills.
OpenWhat each casino tool answers, and what it cannot
The bonus wagering calculator exists because welcome offers are written to be read once and never checked. Put the deposit, the match, the multiple and the game weighting in, and the offer becomes a playthrough figure with an expected cost attached. It cannot tell you whether you will run hot or cold, only what the average player pays to clear it.
The house edge calculator turns a game and a bet size into a price per hour. It uses the standard edge for each rule set, which means it is only as right as the rules you actually play under: a 6:5 blackjack table is not the 0.5 percent game, and the tool lists both. The licence check answers one question about the casinos reviewed on this site, whether the licence in the footer matched a register, and says plainly when a brand has not been checked yet.
The Ireland licence tracker is the slowest-moving of the four and the one most likely to matter in 2027, when online casino licences from the Irish regulator begin and the answer to "is this casino allowed to serve me" changes for every brand on the site. None of the tools needs an account, none stores what you enter, and each of them credits a small amount of XP the first time it is used.
