## How SafeBet.ai's data is produced

- **AI picks:** machine-learning models trained on 30,088 matches and 901,527 data points analyze 100+ games a day and compare SafeBet.ai's own odds with the sportsbook lines. Every pick gets an AI Safe Score from 1 to 99. The complete archive of free weekly picks, with odds, scores and results (wins and losses), is public: https://safebet.ai/free-sports-pick/index.html.md. Subscriber results for 2023 were verified by ORACLE: https://credsverse.com/credentials/13325cf4-1640-4629-bdee-bc015addbd9d.
- **Rankings and reviews:** researched from primary sources: regulators' registers and official texts (the CFTC and state gaming regulators in the US; the DGOJ register and the official gazette, BOE, in Spain; the Games of Chance Administration's list of approved operators and the official legal texts in Serbia; Brazil's official legal texts, Central Bank and National Monetary Council) and the operators' own terms. Every page lists its sources with dates. Operators are scored from 0 to 10 on weighted criteria: [Prediction markets, USA](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/how-we-rank/index.html.md) · [Online casinos, USA](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md) · [Online casinos, Spain](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md) · [Online casinos, Serbia](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md).
- **Updates:** pages are re-checked when an operator changes its terms or availability, or when a regulator or court acts, and every ranking keeps an update history. Every page and Markdown file shows its last-updated date.

- SafeBet.ai's picks are AI predictions for information and entertainment, never guarantees or financial advice. Betting can lose money.

## USA: best prediction markets & online casinos

Top-5 rankings of the legal options in the USA, full reviews and guides (Markdown versions; cite the page URL at the top of each file).

- [Best prediction markets in the USA (2026)](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/index.html.md): Kalshi is the best prediction market in the US in 2026: a CFTC-regulated exchange with the widest range of event contracts, the deepest liquidity — about 80% of tracked prediction-market volume in September 2026 — and more ways to deposit than any rival. Robinhood, Crypto.com's OG, Polymarket US and Interactive Brokers complete our top five. Our top 5: 1. Kalshi (best overall, 9.6/10); 2. Robinhood (best for investors, 9.0/10); 3. Crypto.com (OG) (best for flexible deposits, 8.6/10); 4. Polymarket (best for low fees, 8.5/10); 5. Interactive Brokers (best for earning interest, 8.1/10).
- [Best online casinos in the USA (2026)](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/index.html.md): BetMGM Casino is the best online casino in the US in 2026: it has one of the largest game libraries of any licensed US casino, a big network of state-exclusive jackpots, and rewards you can turn into MGM hotel and dining perks. FanDuel, DraftKings, BetRivers and Caesars Palace Online complete our top five. Real-money online casinos are legal in only seven states — New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, Delaware, Connecticut and Rhode Island — and you must be 21 or older and physically in the state to play. Our top 5: 1. BetMGM Casino (best overall, 9.1/10); 2. FanDuel Casino (best app & fast payouts, 9.0/10); 3. DraftKings Casino (best for exclusive games, 8.9/10); 4. BetRivers Casino (best low-wagering bonus, 8.8/10); 5. Caesars Palace Online Casino (best rewards program, 8.6/10).

## USA reviews

- [Kalshi review](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-review/index.html.md): #1 prediction market in the USA, 9.6/10 — Kalshi is the best all-round US prediction market: a CFTC-regulated exchange and clearinghouse with the deepest liquidity, the widest range of markets and a long list of payment options. Taker fees top out at 1.75¢ per contract, and most maker orders are free. The main caveat is legal: as of September 30, 2026, court orders block its sports contracts in Nevada, Michigan and Washington.
- [Best Kalshi alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-alternatives/index.html.md): Kalshi is the biggest US prediction market, but it isn't the cheapest option for every trade, and its sports contracts are blocked in some states. These four CFTC-regulated platforms each beat Kalshi on something specific, from maker rebates to interest on positions.
- [Robinhood review](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/robinhood-review/index.html.md): #2 prediction market in the USA, 9.0/10 — Robinhood is the most convenient way to trade prediction markets if you already invest there, with CFTC-regulated contracts from several exchanges, deep liquidity and custom sports combos in one app. The trade-offs: its commission of up to 1¢ per contract comes on top of exchange fees, trading is app-only, and sports contracts are unavailable in Maryland, Nevada, Michigan and Washington.
- [Best Robinhood alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/robinhood-alternatives/index.html.md): Robinhood makes event contracts easy if you already invest there, but trading is app-only, its commission sits on top of exchange fees, and sports are unavailable in four states. These CFTC-regulated alternatives each fix at least one of those problems.
- [Crypto.com (OG) review](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/crypto-com-review/index.html.md): #3 prediction market in the USA, 8.6/10 — OG is the most flexible platform we rank for funding your account: PayPal, Venmo, cards and digital wallets with no OG deposit fee and a $1 minimum by ACH, all on Crypto.com's long-running CFTC-regulated exchange. Taker fees match Kalshi's, but makers pay too, reliable volume figures aren't available, and OG doesn't list which contracts are restricted in which states.
- [Best Crypto.com (OG) alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/crypto-com-alternatives/index.html.md): OG, Crypto.com's prediction-market platform, is strong on deposits, but it charges makers a fee, has no reliable public volume figures and doesn't list which contracts are restricted in which states. These four CFTC-regulated alternatives do better on liquidity, fees or transparency.
- [Polymarket review](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/polymarket-review/index.html.md): #4 prediction market in the USA, 8.5/10 — Polymarket US is our pick for low fees: takers pay at most 1.74¢ per contract, makers earn a rebate on every fill, and deposits and withdrawals are free, all on a CFTC-regulated exchange with sports, politics and crypto markets. It ranks #4 because the US exchange is newer and far smaller than Kalshi, takes only debit card, ACH and wire, pays no interest and faces state lawsuits, including a Nevada injunction that blocks it there.
- [Best Polymarket alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/polymarket-alternatives/index.html.md): Polymarket US has low trading fees, but it takes only debit card, ACH and wire, pays no interest and is blocked in Nevada, and the international polymarket.com is close-only for US users. These four CFTC-regulated platforms each beat Polymarket US on something specific, from liquidity to deposit options and interest.
- [Interactive Brokers review](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/interactive-brokers-review/index.html.md): #5 prediction market in the USA, 8.1/10 — ForecastTrader is our pick for earning interest: ForecastEx pays a 3.38% APY coupon on your positions and charges a flat 1¢ per contract with no IBKR commission, on a CFTC-regulated exchange owned by Interactive Brokers. The catch is a narrow market: no sports contracts since February 2026, thin and falling volume, and a 21+ age limit, although IBKR can now route orders to Kalshi and CME too.
- [Best Interactive Brokers alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/interactive-brokers-alternatives/index.html.md): Interactive Brokers' ForecastTrader is cheap and pays interest on positions, but ForecastEx lists no sports, you must be 21 or older, and its volume has fallen sharply since sports trading stopped. These four CFTC-regulated platforms each fill at least one of those gaps.
- [BetMGM Casino review](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betmgm-casino-review/index.html.md): #1 online casino in the USA, 9.1/10 — BetMGM Casino is the best all-round online casino for players in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia: it combines one of the largest game libraries in the US, 25+ exclusive progressive jackpots and loyalty points you can use at MGM resorts. Its welcome offer of up to 1,000 bonus spins needs only a $10 deposit. The main caveats are withdrawals, which start with an internal review that can take up to five business days, and 2026 regulatory fines in New Jersey and Pennsylvania.
- [Best BetMGM Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betmgm-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): BetMGM Casino has one of the biggest game libraries in the US, but it's live in only four states, its withdrawals start with an internal review of up to five business days, and its bonus-spin winnings carry 10x wagering. These four state-licensed casinos each beat BetMGM on something specific, from payout speed to lower wagering and different rewards.
- [FanDuel Casino review](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/fanduel-casino-review/index.html.md): #2 online casino in the USA, 9.0/10 — FanDuel Casino is the pick if you care most about the app and getting paid quickly: its standalone casino app is rated 4.8 out of 5 from about 201,000 iOS ratings, reviewers report PayPal, Venmo and debit withdrawals within 24 hours, and FanDuel advertises 1x playthrough on every casino promo. It's also the biggest US online casino, with a 27% share of US iGaming revenue in Q2 2026, according to Flutter. The trade-offs are a smaller game library than BetMGM or DraftKings and a rewards club that pays casino bonuses rather than hotel or dining perks.
- [Best FanDuel Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/fanduel-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): FanDuel Casino is the biggest online casino in the US and has one of the best-rated apps, but its game library is smaller than its main rivals' and its rewards club pays only casino bonuses. These four state-licensed casinos each beat FanDuel on something specific, from game choice to rewards you can use at resorts.
- [DraftKings Casino review](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/draftkings-casino-review/index.html.md): #3 online casino in the USA, 8.9/10 — DraftKings Casino is the best choice if you want games you can't play elsewhere: its in-house studio produced 36% of its casino handle in 2025, and its jackpot network, shared with Golden Nugget, has paid what DraftKings calls the largest online jackpot in history, $22 million. It's live in five states, including Connecticut, and its welcome offer of up to 1,000 Flex Spins needs only $5 in wagers, with no rollover on winnings. The caveats are spins you must collect daily over 20 days, no credit card deposits since August 2025, and support that reviewers call hit-and-miss.
- [Best DraftKings Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/draftkings-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): DraftKings Casino is the place for in-house exclusive games, but its rewards are spent only in its own store, its welcome spins are spread over 20 days, and reviewers describe its support as hit-and-miss. These four state-licensed casinos each beat DraftKings on something specific, from app ratings and game choice to rewards you can use at resorts.
- [BetRivers Casino review](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betrivers-casino-review/index.html.md): #4 online casino in the USA, 8.8/10 — BetRivers Casino is the pick for players who care more about bonus terms than bonus size: its welcome lossback and the bonuses you bank through iRush Rewards carry a 1x playthrough. It is also the only online casino platform in Delaware, its app is rated 4.9 on the App Store, and reviewers report instant Play+ and 24-hour PayPal withdrawals. The trade-offs are a smaller game library, fewer big jackpots and a modest $500 headline offer.
- [Best BetRivers Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betrivers-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): BetRivers Casino has some of the fairest bonus terms in the US, with 1x playthroughs, but its game library is smaller than the market leaders' and its headline offer is modest. These four state-licensed casinos each beat BetRivers on something specific, from game choice and jackpots to rewards you can use at resorts.
- [Caesars Palace Online Casino review](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/caesars-palace-online-casino-review/index.html.md): #5 online casino in the USA, 8.6/10 — Caesars Palace Online Casino is the pick if you'll use the rewards: online play earns Caesars Rewards credits you can redeem at Caesars destinations in the US and Canada, and review sites report a $10 sign-up credit plus a 100% deposit match up to $1,000 for new players. The catch is the playthrough on that match, 15x on slots and 75x on blackjack within 7 days. Also weigh the pending sale of Caesars to Fertitta Entertainment and New Jersey's August 2026 responsible-gaming penalty against "Caesars Sportsbook".
- [Best Caesars Palace Online Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/caesars-palace-online-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): Caesars Palace Online Casino ties your online play to Caesars Rewards, but its welcome match carries heavy wagering and SportsLine says it has fewer progressive jackpot games than rivals. These four state-licensed casinos each beat it on something specific, from 1x bonus terms to bigger libraries and availability in Connecticut or Delaware.

## USA head-to-head comparisons

- [Kalshi vs Robinhood](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-vs-robinhood/index.html.md): Trade on Kalshi directly if cost, market choice or web trading matter most: Robinhood routes orders to Kalshi and other CFTC-regulated exchanges but adds a commission of up to 1¢ per contract on top of exchange fees, so the same Kalshi contract usually costs more there. Choose Robinhood if you already invest with it and want event contracts next to your stocks and crypto. As of September 30, 2026, neither offers new sports contracts in Nevada, Michigan or Washington, and Robinhood also blocks Maryland.
- [Kalshi vs Crypto.com's OG](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-vs-crypto-com/index.html.md): Kalshi is the better choice for most traders: it handled about $53 billion of volume in September 2026, while OG publishes no reliable volume figures, and Kalshi lists more markets, lets most maker orders trade free and pays a 3.25% variable APY on balances of $250 or more. Choose OG, Crypto.com's prediction-market app, if you want to fund with PayPal, Venmo, a debit card, Apple Pay or Google Pay without an OG deposit fee, or start with as little as $1 by ACH. As of September 30, 2026, takers pay the same fee formula on both, up to 1.75¢ per contract.
- [Kalshi vs Polymarket](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-vs-polymarket/index.html.md): Kalshi is the better choice for most US traders: in September 2026 it traded about $53 billion versus about $8.5 billion on Polymarket US, and it has more markets, more deposit methods and a 3.25% variable APY on balances of $250 or more. Choose Polymarket US, the CFTC-regulated US version of Polymarket, if you mainly post limit orders, since makers earn a rebate of up to 0.31¢ per contract. As of September 30, 2026, neither offers sports in Nevada, and court orders also block Kalshi's sports contracts in Michigan and Washington.
- [Kalshi vs Interactive Brokers ForecastTrader](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/kalshi-vs-interactive-brokers/index.html.md): Kalshi is the better choice for most traders: it offers sports and far deeper liquidity and is open from age 18, while ForecastEx has listed no sports contracts since February 2026 and Interactive Brokers requires you to be 21. Choose Interactive Brokers' ForecastTrader if you trade economic data, weather or elections and want cheap mid-priced trades: no commission, a flat 1¢ per contract on ForecastEx and a 3.38% APY coupon on positions as of September 30, 2026, slightly above Kalshi's 3.25% variable APY.
- [Polymarket vs Robinhood](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/polymarket-vs-robinhood/index.html.md): Robinhood is the better all-round choice: it routes orders to Kalshi, the largest US prediction market, and three other CFTC-regulated exchanges, and lets you trade event contracts in the app where you already invest. Polymarket US, the CFTC-regulated US version of Polymarket, is cheaper to trade on, with taker fees of at most 1.74¢ per contract and a maker rebate versus up to 2¢ per contract at Robinhood, and you can trade it on the web. As of September 30, 2026, Polymarket US is unavailable in Nevada, and Robinhood offers no sports contracts in Maryland, Nevada, Michigan or Washington.
- [BetMGM Casino vs FanDuel Casino](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betmgm-vs-fanduel/index.html.md): BetMGM Casino ranks #1 in our ranking and is the better choice if you want the most games and rewards you can use at resorts: it offers over 7,000 titles across North America, and its points convert to MGM Rewards for hotel stays and dining. FanDuel Casino (#2) is better for its app and payout speed: as of September 30, 2026, its casino app is rated 4.8 out of 5 from about 201,000 iOS ratings, and reviewers report PayPal, Venmo and debit withdrawals within 24 hours, while BetMGM reviews every withdrawal for up to five business days first.
- [BetMGM Casino vs DraftKings Casino](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betmgm-vs-draftkings/index.html.md): BetMGM Casino ranks #1 in our ranking and is the better choice for most players in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia: it offers over 7,000 titles across North America, 25+ exclusive progressive jackpots and Rewards points that convert to MGM Rewards for hotel stays and dining. Choose DraftKings Casino (#3) for in-house exclusive games, faster withdrawals and a $5 welcome offer with no rollover on spin winnings (as of September 30, 2026), or if you play in Connecticut, where BetMGM isn't licensed.
- [BetMGM Casino vs Caesars Palace Online Casino](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/betmgm-vs-caesars/index.html.md): BetMGM Casino ranks #1 in our ranking and is the better choice for most players: it has a much bigger library, with 2,000 to 3,300+ games per state against roughly 1,000 to 2,000 at Caesars Palace Online Casino, and its welcome spins need only a $10 deposit. Choose Caesars Palace Online Casino (#5) if you already collect Caesars Rewards, want faster reported payouts or want to start with a $10 no-deposit credit (review sites, September 2026). Both are licensed only in Michigan, New Jersey, Pennsylvania and West Virginia.
- [DraftKings Casino vs FanDuel Casino](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/draftkings-vs-fanduel/index.html.md): FanDuel Casino ranks above DraftKings Casino in our ranking (#2 vs #3) and is the better pick if you want the best-rated app and quick withdrawals: its casino app is rated 4.8 out of 5 from about 201,000 iOS ratings, and reviewers report PayPal, Venmo and debit payouts within 24 hours. Choose DraftKings Casino for in-house exclusive games and a bigger library, or if you play in Connecticut, where FanDuel Casino isn't available. As of September 30, 2026, both welcome offers start at $5.

## USA guides

- [How prediction markets work](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/how-prediction-markets-work/index.html.md): A prediction market is an exchange where you buy and sell contracts on the outcome of a future event. Each contract pays $1 if the event happens and nothing if it doesn't, so its price — say 38¢ — works as the market's estimate of the probability. You trade with other people, not the house, and you can sell before the event is decided.
- [Are prediction markets legal in the US?](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/are-prediction-markets-legal/index.html.md): Yes — prediction markets that list event contracts on a CFTC-regulated exchange are legal under federal law and available in most states. Sports contracts are the exception: as of September 30, 2026, federal appeals courts are split on whether states can ban them, several states block them, and the Supreme Court has been asked to decide.
- [Prediction markets vs sportsbooks](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/prediction-markets-vs-sportsbooks/index.html.md): A sportsbook sets the odds and takes the other side of your bet; a prediction market is an exchange where you trade contracts with other people and pay a fee. Prediction markets often have lower costs on popular markets and let you sell early, but sportsbooks are licensed by your state, while sports event contracts are still legally contested in many states.
- [Prediction market fees compared](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/prediction-market-fees/index.html.md): Most US prediction markets charge a trading fee per contract that peaks when the price is 50¢: about $1.75 per 100 contracts on Kalshi and OG, $1.74 on Polymarket US, $2.00 through Robinhood and $1.00 on Interactive Brokers' ForecastEx. Deposit and withdrawal fees can matter just as much, so compare the total cost for the way you'll fund your account.
- [How to read prediction market prices as odds](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/prediction-market-odds/index.html.md): A prediction market price in cents is the market's implied probability: a contract at 40¢ means roughly a 40% chance. To get decimal odds, divide 1 by the price (1 ÷ 0.40 = 2.50); in American odds a 40¢ price is +150 and a 60¢ price is -150. Trading fees and the bid-ask spread make the odds you actually get slightly worse.
- [How we rank prediction markets](https://safebet.ai/us/prediction-markets/how-we-rank/index.html.md): We score every US prediction market from 0 to 10 on six weighted criteria — regulation and safety (25%), markets and features (20%), fees (20%), liquidity (15%), deposits and withdrawals (10%) and the app experience (10%). Only platforms that US residents can legally use through a CFTC-regulated exchange or broker are eligible.
- [Where online casinos are legal in the US](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/where-online-casinos-are-legal/index.html.md): As of September 30, 2026, real-money online casinos are legal and operating in seven US states: New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan, West Virginia, Delaware, Connecticut and Rhode Island. Maine legalized online casinos run by its four Wabanaki Nations in January 2026, but its rules are still in draft and no site has launched, and Nevada allows online poker only. To play, you must be 21 or older and physically inside one of the seven states.
- [Are online casinos safe? How to spot a licensed casino](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/safe-online-casinos/index.html.md): A state-licensed online casino is the safe way to play real-money casino games in the US: it must verify your age and identity, confirm you're in the state, use regulator-approved games, offer deposit limits and self-exclusion, and answer to a regulator you can complain to. Offshore casinos offer none of that, and Michigan's regulator warns they provide 'no consumer protections' and may not pay you. Before you deposit, find the casino's exact name and web address on your state regulator's official list.
- [Online casino bonuses explained](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/casino-bonuses-explained/index.html.md): A casino bonus is usually restricted money you must wager a set number of times before you can withdraw it. Its real value is roughly the bonus minus the expected loss on that wagering: a $100 bonus with a 15x requirement means $1,500 of play, which costs about $60 on average on a 96% slot — so it's worth about $40, not $100.
- [RTP and house edge explained](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/rtp-and-house-edge/index.html.md): RTP (return to player) is the share of all money wagered on a game that it pays back over the long run, and the house edge is the rest: RTP = 100% − house edge. Your expected loss is the total you wager multiplied by the house edge, so $1,000 of spins on a 96% RTP slot costs about $40 on average, while $1,000 of 9/6 Jacks or Better video poker played perfectly costs about $4.60.
- [Are sweepstakes casinos legal? A state-by-state guide](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/sweepstakes-casinos/index.html.md): Sweepstakes casinos are not licensed online casinos: they sell Gold Coins with no cash value and give away Sweeps Coins that can be redeemed for prizes, arguing that this 'no purchase necessary' model is a legal promotion rather than gambling. Twelve states enacted laws against them in 2025–26, and regulators and attorneys general in other states, including Florida, Illinois, Pennsylvania and Michigan, have ordered operators to stop or sued them. No state licenses sweepstakes casinos, so players don't get the protections of a regulated casino.
- [How we rank online casinos](https://safebet.ai/us/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md): We only rank real-money online casinos licensed by a US state gaming regulator. Each casino is scored from 0 to 10 on seven weighted criteria: licensing and safety (20%), game library (20%), welcome bonus value (15%), payouts and banking (15%), app and experience (15%), rewards (10%) and support and responsible gambling tools (5%).
- [Gambling and prediction market taxes in the US](https://safebet.ai/us/guides/gambling-taxes/index.html.md): All gambling winnings are taxable in the US. For 2026, casinos and sportsbooks issue a Form W-2G for slot wins of $2,000 or more and for sports wins of $2,000 or more at odds of 300-to-1 or longer, and itemizers can deduct only 90% of their gambling losses, capped at their winnings. How prediction market profits should be taxed is still unsettled.
- [Responsible gambling in the US: help, limits and self-exclusion](https://safebet.ai/us/guides/responsible-gambling/index.html.md): If gambling is causing problems, call or text the National Problem Gambling Helpline at 1-800-MY-RESET (1-800-697-3738), available 24/7. Licensed online casinos in states such as New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Michigan and West Virginia must offer deposit and time limits, a break of at least 72 hours and self-exclusion, each online-casino state runs its own self-exclusion program, and prediction markets offer similar tools voluntarily.
- [Expected value (EV) explained](https://safebet.ai/us/guides/expected-value/index.html.md): Expected value (EV) is the average amount you win or lose per bet if you could repeat it many times: each outcome's probability times what it pays, added up. Casino games and standard sportsbook bets have negative EV because of the house edge and the vig; a bet or event contract only has positive EV when your true probability is higher than the price implies, after fees.
- [Prediction market, betting & casino glossary](https://safebet.ai/us/guides/glossary/index.html.md): A plain-English glossary of the terms used on US prediction markets, sportsbooks and online casinos. Each definition stands on its own, with links to the guides that go deeper.

## Spain reviews

- [bet365 Casino review](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/bet365-casino-review/index.html.md): #1 online casino in Spain, 8.3/10 — bet365 Casino is the best all-round online casino in Spain if you want a long-licensed operator with quick, flexible banking: its licensee has held DGOJ licenses since June 2012, bet365's only DGOJ cases since 2021 are a written warning and a €10,000 fine, and it lists most withdrawals at one to four hours, with Bizum and PayPal. Its catalogue is broad and transparent, with six months of actual returns published for 2,560 slot-type games. The main caveats are a weak dedicated casino app (3.84 on iOS), no loyalty scheme and a welcome match paid as bonus funds that need 30x wagering on 20 slots within 30 days of a deposit of at least €10.
- [Best bet365 Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/bet365-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): bet365 Casino tops our ranking of DGOJ-licensed casinos, but its dedicated casino app is rated 3.84 on iOS, it has no loyalty scheme, and its welcome match is paid as bonus funds that need 30x wagering on 20 slots within 30 days of a deposit of at least €10. These four licensed casinos each beat bet365 on something specific, from app ratings to slot choice and payout options.
- [888casino review](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/888casino-review/index.html.md): #2 online casino in Spain, 8.0/10 — 888casino is our pick for slot players who want plenty of choice and data: it offers 2,000+ slots, publishes 12 months of actual returns per slot, and its casino app is rated 4.52 on iOS from 8,161 ratings. Its two welcome bonuses are paid as bonus funds with 20x wagering within 90 days (the 100% match needs a €10 minimum deposit; the 88 bonus spins need no deposit). The caveats are five DGOJ resolutions since 2021 (€675,000 in fines), contradictory payout and support details on its own pages, and a parent company, evoke, that reports going-concern uncertainties ahead of a takeover by Bally's Intralot.
- [Best 888casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/888casino-alternatives/index.html.md): 888casino has one of the biggest slot catalogues in our Spain top five, but its licensee has five DGOJ resolutions since 2021, its own pages disagree on payout times and support hours, and its parent, evoke, reports going-concern uncertainties ahead of a takeover by Bally's Intralot. These four DGOJ-licensed casinos each beat 888casino on something specific, from regulatory record to payout speed and support.
- [Botemanía review](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/botemania-review/index.html.md): #3 online casino in Spain, 7.7/10 — Botemanía is the best pick in our ranking for bingo fans: Gamesys Spain is one of only four operators with a DGOJ online bingo license, its app is rated 4.57 on iOS and 4.61 on Android, and its only DGOJ sanction since 2021 is a €125,000 fine in 2023 over a self-excluded player. Its welcome reward is paid as withdrawable winnings once you play a first deposit of €10 or more through within 30 days. The trade-offs are a smaller catalog than the leaders, a live casino of 12 roulette tables and phone support only from 10:00 to 14:00.
- [Best Botemanía alternatives](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/botemania-alternatives/index.html.md): Botemanía has a near-clean DGOJ record and well-rated apps, but its catalog is smaller than the biggest Spanish casinos', card payouts take up to five business days and its phone line runs only four hours a day. These four DGOJ-licensed casinos each beat it on something specific, from game range to payout speed.
- [Betway Casino review](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/betway-casino-review/index.html.md): #4 online casino in Spain, 7.3/10 — Betway Casino is the pick if you play mostly on your phone: its casino app is rated 4.70 from 3,327 ratings on Apple's Spanish App Store, the best iOS score among the casinos we rank, and its only DGOJ sanction since 2021 is a €10,000 fine from 2022. Run by Betway Spain SA and licensed since June 2012, it takes Bizum, PayPal and Trustly. The catch is transparency: its welcome-offer wagering, minimum withdrawal and support hours couldn't be verified, and its catalog of 1,200+ games (archived copy, January 2026) is smaller than the leaders'.
- [Best Betway Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/betway-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): Betway Casino has the best-rated iOS casino app in our ranking and a near-clean DGOJ record, but its catalog is smaller than the leaders' and key terms, from welcome-offer wagering to support hours, couldn't be verified. These four DGOJ-licensed casinos publish more of those details, and each beats Betway on something specific.
- [Codere Casino review](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/codere-casino-review/index.html.md): #5 online casino in Spain, 7.1/10 — Codere Casino is the pick if fast withdrawals matter most: Codere says instant bank transfers usually arrive in under 2 minutes at most banks and PayPal within 8 hours, and its phone line answers 24/7. Run by Codere Online SAU and licensed since June 2012, it also publishes monthly returns for 1,842 titles. The caveats are its DGOJ record, six resolutions since 2021 (€530,500 imposed) including two over self-excluded players allowed to play, and a small casino bonus: up to €100 from a €20+ deposit, in bonus funds, with 30x wagering within 4 days.
- [Best Codere Casino alternatives](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/codere-casino-alternatives/index.html.md): Codere Casino pays out fast and answers the phone around the clock, but it has six DGOJ resolutions since 2021, two of them for letting self-excluded players gamble, and its casino bonus (up to €100 from a €20+ deposit, in bonus funds) needs 30x wagering within 4 days. These four DGOJ-licensed casinos have lighter records, bigger catalogs or better-rated apps, and each beats Codere on something specific.

## Spain head-to-head comparisons

- [bet365 Casino vs 888casino](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/bet365-vs-888casino/index.html.md): bet365 Casino is the better choice for most players: as of October 1, 2026, its Spanish licensees have only a written warning and one €10,000 fine from Spain's regulator, the DGOJ, since 2021, against five resolutions and €675,000 in fines for 888casino's licensee, and it lists most withdrawals at one to four hours. 888casino suits slot players: it publishes 12 months of actual returns for about 3,085 slots, runs a loyalty club and, at the time of writing (October 2026), pays its deposit match (€10 minimum deposit) as bonus funds with 20x wagering within 90 days, against 30x within 30 days on 20 slots for bet365's match (also €10 minimum, bonus funds).
- [bet365 Casino vs Betway Casino](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/bet365-vs-betway/index.html.md): bet365 Casino is the better all-round choice: as of October 1, 2026, its RTP table lists 2,560 slot-type games against more than 1,200 games in an archived January 2026 copy of Betway's site, it lists most withdrawals at one to four hours, and its welcome terms, minimum withdrawals and support hours are published in full. Choose Betway Casino if you mainly play on your phone: its dedicated casino app is rated 4.70 on Apple's Spanish App Store from 3,327 ratings, against 3.84 for bet365's casino app. Both have the joint-lightest records with Spain's regulator, the DGOJ, in our ranking: one €10,000 fine each since 2021, plus a 2022 written warning for bet365's sports licensee.
- [bet365 Casino vs Codere Casino](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/bet365-vs-codere/index.html.md): bet365 Casino is the better choice for most players: as of October 1, 2026, its Spanish licensees have a written warning and one €10,000 fine from Spain's regulator, the DGOJ, since 2021, against six resolutions and €530,500 imposed for Codere, two of them over self-excluded players allowed to play, and its RTP table lists 2,560 slot-type games against 1,842 titles in Codere's report. Choose Codere Casino if instant bank payouts, cash or phone support matter most: Codere says instant bank-transfer withdrawals usually arrive in under 2 minutes at most banks, you can collect cash at its venues, and its phone line answers 24/7.

## Spain guides

- [Are online casinos legal in Spain?](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/are-online-casinos-legal-in-spain/index.html.md): Yes. As of October 1, 2026, online casinos are legal in Spain, but only at operators licensed by Spain's gambling regulator, the DGOJ, on the .es domains listed in its public register, and only for players aged 18 or over. The register listed 78 licensed operators that day, 59 of them with licenses for casino games such as roulette, blackjack and slots. Licenses issued by other countries aren't valid in Spain.
- [Casino bonuses in Spain: the rules explained](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/casino-bonuses-spain/index.html.md): Royal Decree 958/2020 banned welcome bonuses for new customers, but the Supreme Court annulled that ban in April 2024 and the BOE's consolidated text marks it as annulled, although the DGOJ's FAQ still described it on October 1, 2026. The rules that remain are strict: every offer must state the minimum deposit, the wagering requirement, the time limit and whether you get withdrawable cash or bonus credit, and it can't suggest the bonus is free, use testimonials or target self-excluded or at-risk players.
- [Casino payments in Spain: Bizum, PayPal and limits](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/casino-payments-spain/index.html.md): Spain's licensed online casinos commonly take Bizum, PayPal, cards and bank transfers, and many add Apple Pay, Google Pay, e-wallets and Paysafecard. As of October 1, 2026, all five casinos in our ranking accept Bizum, but bet365 Casino, 888casino and Botemanía use it for deposits only. Every licensed site caps deposits by default at €600 a day, €1,500 a week and €3,000 a month, and pays out only after verifying your identity.
- [How we rank online casinos in Spain](https://safebet.ai/es/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md): We only rank online casinos licensed by Spain's gambling regulator, the DGOJ, for casino games, on .es domains listed in its register. Each casino is scored from 0 to 10 on seven weighted criteria: licensing and safety (20%), game library (20%), welcome bonus and promos (15%), payouts and banking (15%), app and experience (15%), rewards and loyalty (10%) and support and responsible gambling (5%).
- [Are prediction markets legal in Spain? Kalshi and Polymarket (2026)](https://safebet.ai/es/guides/are-prediction-markets-legal-in-spain/index.html.md): No. As of October 1, 2026, no prediction market is licensed in Spain: the gambling regulator, the DGOJ, treats prediction markets as gambling that needs a specific Spanish license, and no operator holds the license for exchange betting on non-sport events. On May 26, 2026, the DGOJ opened sanction proceedings against Kalshi and Polymarket and ordered both websites blocked as a precautionary measure; no final decision had been found by October 1, 2026. Event contracts that count as financial instruments fall under Spain's ban on selling binary options to retail clients.
- [Gambling taxes in Spain: how winnings are taxed (2026)](https://safebet.ai/es/guides/gambling-taxes-spain/index.html.md): If you live in Spain, winnings from licensed online casinos, sportsbooks, poker and bingo are capital gains (ganancias patrimoniales) in the general base of personal income tax (IRPF), paid without withholding, and gambling losses count only up to the same year's gambling gains. Prizes from SELAE, ONCE, Cruz Roja and regional lotteries instead pay a 20% special levy on the part above €40,000, withheld at source. As of October 1, 2026, no official guidance on prediction-market gains had been found.
- [Where to get help for gambling problems in Spain](https://safebet.ai/es/guides/gambling-help-spain/index.html.md): In a crisis, call 024, Spain's free suicide-prevention line, open 24 hours a day, or 112 in an emergency. For gambling problems, FEJAR's free, confidential helpline is 900 200 225, Jugadores Anónimos answers 670 691 513 around the clock, and registering in the RGIAJ, Spain's national self-exclusion register, bars you from online gambling at every licensed operator; it's free and can be cancelled only after six months. Licensed sites must also offer deposit limits, session limits, reality checks and their own self-exclusion.

## Serbia: best online casinos

A top-5 ranking of the legal options in Serbia, full reviews and guides (Markdown versions; cite the page URL at the top of each file).

- [Top 5 Online Casinos in Serbia for 2026](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/index.html.md): Of the five approved casinos we've reviewed, the best online casino in Serbia for 2026 is King.rs, thanks to its strong local license, its casino and sportsbook combination with 11,071 games, free 24/7 phone support and the most promotions we could verify of the five casinos we compared. bet365.rs, RIZK.rs, 1xBet.rs and MrBit.rs complete our top five, all approved by Serbia's Games of Chance Administration. Online casinos are legal in Serbia only on the one website each approval covers, and only for players aged 18 or over. Our top 5: 1.

## Serbia reviews

- [King.rs review](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/king-rs-review/index.html.md): #1 online casino in Serbia, 8.6/10 — King.rs is our #1 online casino in Serbia because it pairs product depth with transparent licensing: its approved game rules list 11,071 games, 588 of them live, and its sitemap lists 66 game providers, next to a full sportsbook, and its operator has been approved since 2016 and publishes its registration and approval numbers. Support is free by phone, chat and email 24/7, in Serbian and English, and its promotions calendar is the fullest we could verify in our ranking. The welcome offer is modest, though: its free spins' winnings must be wagered 35x within 7 days and can be cashed out only up to your deposit, at most RSD 5,000. Withdrawals go only to your bank account, from RSD 1,000 and up to RSD 600,000 a month, and King.rs publishes no payout time.
- [Best King.rs alternatives](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/king-rs-alternatives/index.html.md): King.rs tops our Serbian casino rankings with an 8.6/10 editor score. It combines a deep casino lobby with a full sportsbook, free phone support around the clock and a busy promotions calendar. Yet even the top-rated platform has gaps that send certain players looking elsewhere, from its modest welcome offer to its bank-only withdrawals and the lack of a time-out tool. The best alternative to King.rs in 2026, for most people, is bet365.rs. Its welcome offer, payment methods and responsible-gambling tools are verified, while RIZK.rs remains the pick for a casino-first site.
- [bet365.rs review](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/bet365-rs-review/index.html.md): #2 online casino in Serbia, 8.0/10 — bet365.rs is our #2 online casino in Serbia: Hillside New Media d.o.o. Beograd holds an approval from the Games of Chance Administration and publishes its license number, and its tools for staying in control are the fullest we found, from deposit limits that can only be raised after a 24-hour wait to time-outs, gambling blocks and a budget calculator. Its casino welcome package is the largest we could verify, but the bonus must be wagered 40 times within 30 days on 15 listed slots. It trails King.rs on support (live chat 09:00–21:30 and a web form only), on games (no game count we could verify) and on licensing history; the two tie on payouts and bonuses.
- [Best bet365.rs alternatives](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/bet365-rs-alternatives/index.html.md): The best alternative to bet365.rs in 2026 is King.rs. It delivers sports betting alongside a much deeper verified casino product, round-the-clock phone support and a longer approval history, all under a Serbian license from the Games of Chance Administration. bet365.rs itself ranks #2 in our Serbia top 5, with the fullest responsible-gambling toolset we found.
- [RIZK.rs review](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/rizk-rs-review/index.html.md): #3 online casino in Serbia, 7.6/10 — RIZK.rs is a casino-first site from Top Slots d.o.o. Beograd, which has held its approval from the Games of Chance Administration since February 25, 2021 and shows the approval number in its footer. Its welcome offer as published in April 2025, the latest version we could check, was 100% up to RSD 10,000 in bonus money plus 100 free spins (10 a day for 10 days, RSD 10–12 each) for a minimum deposit of RSD 500, with the bonus wagered 35x within 30 days, spin winnings free of wagering and no cap on winnings. RIZK.rs blocks visitors outside Serbia, so check the current terms before you deposit; for the same reason, we couldn't verify its game count, payment methods or responsible-gambling tools. It has no app and no phone line, and it trails King.rs on games and support and bet365.rs on payments and responsible-gambling tools.
- [Best RIZK.rs alternatives](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/rizk-rs-alternatives/index.html.md): The best alternative to RIZK.rs in 2026 is King.rs. It offers a broader casino and sportsbook experience, with 11,071 games in its approved rules, published payment rules and free 24/7 phone support, all under a Serbian approval. RIZK.rs is a casino-first platform that earns 7.6/10 in our review and ranks third in our Serbia ranking. But no single casino is perfect for every player, and RIZK.rs's current terms can't be checked from outside Serbia. There are valid reasons to explore alternatives.
- [1xBet.rs review](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/1xbet-rs-review/index.html.md): #4 online casino in Serbia, 7.5/10 — 1xBet.rs is a legitimate, Serbian-approved sportsbook and casino: SAFEPLAY d.o.o. Beograd has been on the Games of Chance Administration's list since mid-2024, and its footer gives its approval number. It puts sports betting, esports and virtual sports alongside slots and live games, with a free phone line and, according to its App Store listing, Serbian-language support 24/7. But its site blocks visitors from outside Serbia, and we couldn't verify its welcome-bonus conditions, a game count, payment methods beyond Visa and Mastercard or its withdrawal rules, so its payouts, bonuses and responsible-play scores are neutral. It ranks fourth, behind three casinos whose licensing details and bonus terms we could verify more fully.
- [Best 1xBet.rs alternatives](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/1xbet-rs-alternatives/index.html.md): The best alternative to 1xBet.rs in 2026 is King.rs. It pairs a sportsbook with a deep casino lobby, published withdrawal rules and free 24/7 phone support, all under a Serbian license. Below are the four Serbian-approved alternatives in our ranking, in order of score, with what each does better or worse than 1xBet.rs.
- [MrBit.rs review](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/mrbit-rs-review/index.html.md): #5 online casino in Serbia, 7.1/10 — MrBit.rs is the newest approved operator in our ranking: its company, IGRANOVA d.o.o. Beograd, has been on the Games of Chance Administration's official list of online operators only since about May 2026. That approval is verified, but little else is. We couldn't open its site from outside Serbia, no archived copies of it exist and there's no official app, so we couldn't check its welcome offer, games, payments or support. It ranks fifth for that reason until we can, so check its terms on the site before you deposit.
- [Best MrBit.rs alternatives](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/mrbit-rs-alternatives/index.html.md): The best alternative to MrBit.rs in 2026 is King.rs. It offers a verified game library, a longer track record and published terms, each under its own approval from the Games of Chance Administration. MrBit.rs is the newest approved operator in our ranking, on the official list only since about May 2026, and we couldn't verify its offer, games, payments or support, so it ranks fifth until we can. Several factors may push players toward the alternatives below, listed in the order of our ranking.

- [Are online casinos legal in Serbia?](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/are-online-casinos-legal-in-serbia/index.html.md): Yes. As of October 5, 2026, online casinos are legal in Serbia only at operators approved by the Games of Chance Administration (Uprava za igre na sreću), part of the Ministry of Finance, on the one website each approval covers, and only for adults 18 or over whose age is checked against an ID card or passport. The official list named 25 approved online operators that day; offshore sites have no Serbian approval, and the Administration orders them blocked.
- [How we rank online casinos in Serbia](https://safebet.ai/rs/online-casinos/how-we-rank/index.html.md): We only rank online casinos approved by Serbia's Games of Chance Administration, on the one website each approval covers. Each casino is scored from 0 to 10 across 74 checks in six categories, weighted by their share of the checks: Licensing 24%, Payouts 16%, Bonuses 19%, Games & RTP 14%, Support 11% and Responsible play 16%. Every check uses public sources we cite, and a check we can't verify earns no credit and costs no credit.
- [Where to get help for gambling problems in Serbia](https://safebet.ai/rs/guides/gambling-help-serbia/index.html.md): Serbia has no national gambling helpline that we could verify, but two institutions in Belgrade treat gambling problems: the Special Hospital for Addiction Disorders (+381 11 3671 429 or +381 11 2662 727) and the Institute of Mental Health (+381 11 3307 500). Every approved online casino must also offer deposit limits and self-exclusion from 24 hours to permanent, and an exclusion is passed on to every approved online operator where you have an account.

## Brazil guides

- [Brazil's 2026 betting ban explained (MP 1,394/2026)](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/brazil-betting-ban/index.html.md): As of October 1, 2026, fixed-odds betting, meaning both sports betting and online casino games, is banned in Brazil under Provisional Measure (MP) 1,394/2026, in force since September 25, 2026, including when operators abroad offer bets to people in Brazil; all betting advertising aimed at Brazilians is banned too. Deposits are blocked, bettors can withdraw until 11:59 p.m. on October 5, 2026, and the 85 federal licenses end 30 days after publication with no refund of their fees. The ban faces petitions at the Supreme Federal Court (STF), and Congress must vote on it by November 23, 2026, extendable once by 60 days.
- [How to get your money back from Brazilian betting sites](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/betting-refunds/index.html.md): As of October 1, 2026, MP 1,394/2026 requires Brazil's formerly licensed betting sites to return bettors' money in full. You can withdraw your balance yourself until 11:59 p.m. on October 5, 2026; after that, each operator must send what it owes, listed by CPF, to its banks, which must pay it into an account in the bettor's name within 7 days, and money that can't be returned goes to an account at Caixa Econômica Federal.
- [Are prediction markets legal in Brazil? Kalshi and Polymarket (2026)](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/are-prediction-markets-legal-in-brazil/index.html.md): No: as of October 1, 2026, CMN Resolution 5,298/2026 bans offering and trading in Brazil event contracts on sports, elections, politics, entertainment and similar topics, including contracts traded abroad, the government had Kalshi's and Polymarket's sites blocked in April 2026, and no prediction market is authorized for retail users. Only contracts on economic or financial benchmarks fall outside the ban, and the only authorized ones found are B3's event contracts for professional investors. A 2024 Superior Electoral Court (TSE) decision also made election betting an electoral offense, and MP 1,394/2026 has banned fixed-odds betting since September 25, 2026.
- [Taxes on betting winnings in Brazil (2026)](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/betting-taxes-brazil/index.html.md): Under article 31 of Law 14,790/2023, net winnings from fixed-odds bets in Brazil were taxed at 15% under personal income tax (IRPF), on the year's positive results above the first bracket of the annual IRPF table (R$28,467.20 for 2025), with each type of bet netted separately and the tax calculated and paid by the bettor once a year. MP 1,394/2026 revoked article 31 on September 25, 2026, but keeps the old law applicable to facts that occurred while licenses were in force; as of October 1, 2026, no Receita Federal guidance for calendar-year 2026 had been found.
- [Where to get help for gambling problems in Brazil](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/gambling-help-brazil/index.html.md): In a crisis, call CVV on 188: it's free, open 24 hours a day and offers emotional support and suicide prevention, though it isn't gambling-specific. For betting problems, Brazil's public health system (SUS) offers free teleconsultations for people who bet and their families through the Meu SUS Digital app, UBS and CAPS units provide ongoing care, and Jogadores Anônimos runs free peer-support meetings in person and online. As of October 1, 2026, the central self-exclusion platform is unavailable because of the betting ban, and licensed sites, with their own tools, must go offline from October 6, 2026.
- [Brazil betting law timeline (2018–2026)](https://safebet.ai/br/guides/brazil-betting-law-timeline/index.html.md): Brazil legalized fixed-odds sports betting with Law 13,756/2018, added online casino games and a licensing regime with Law 14,790/2023, and opened a federally licensed market on January 1, 2025. On September 25, 2026, Provisional Measure (MP) 1,394/2026 banned both sports betting and online casino games. As of October 1, 2026, the ban is in force, petitions to suspend it are pending at the Supreme Federal Court (STF), and Congress must vote on it by November 23, 2026, extendable once by 60 days.
