About Us
Who we are and what Obsidian Ribbon Alliance does
Obsidian Ribbon Alliance is a small, independent website that looks at a narrow set of UK-facing online casinos. We don’t try to cover every brand on the market – instead we keep the list compact and encourage you to do your own checks before you decide where to play.
Our role
Our aim is to give adults in Great Britain a simple starting point for comparing a handful of online casinos that state they are licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission (UKGC). We focus on clear signposting, reminders about licence checks, and safer-gambling awareness.
What we are not
Obsidian Ribbon Alliance is not a casino operator. We do not:
- Run games, accept bets or provide gambling services.
- Hold player balances, process deposits or handle withdrawals.
- Open, close or manage customer accounts.
- Resolve individual disputes or complaints with operators.
All gambling services you may access are provided by the casinos themselves under their own licences and terms.
How we choose brands
When we decide which casinos to feature, we look at factors such as:
- Whether the operator states that it is licensed to serve customers in Great Britain.
- How clearly key terms, bonus rules and restrictions are presented.
- The availability of safer-gambling tools such as deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion.
This is not a guarantee of suitability or a promise that a particular brand is right for you – it is simply a curated starting point.
How to use this site
We strongly recommend that you:
- Use the official UK Gambling Commission public register to confirm each operator’s licence status.
- Read the casino’s own terms and conditions, bonus rules and privacy information in full.
- Set a clear budget and time limit before you play, and stick to both.
