Licence on the regulator's register
A logo in the footer proves nothing. The licence number and company name must appear on the regulator's own register, with the same domain.
Copy the licence number from the casino's footer and search it on the regulator's public register. Some regulators publish no searchable register; then ask support for the certificate.

Welcome offer
What $300 is worth
At $300 the whole bonus may come with the first deposit, so the worksheet starts there. The wagering is not in the offer we list, so set it from Play Grand's bonus terms.

WorksheetSet the bonus part you would claim. The default is a first-deposit example, not the casino's terms.
You must bet $3,500 before the bonus turns into cash. At 96.0% RTP that costs $140 on average, so the bonus is worth about -$40.
