Common questions about UK slot sites and our site

About this site

What is FPI Northwest?
FPI Northwest is an editorial website that compares slot and casino options for UK players. We publish guides, rankings, and supporting information, but we do not provide gambling services ourselves.
Do you accept bets or hold player funds?
No. We only publish editorial content and outbound links. Deposits, withdrawals, and gameplay all take place on the operator’s own website or app.
How do you make money?
We may earn affiliate commission when a visitor signs up or deposits after using one of our links. That does not replace our review criteria, which focus on things like licensing clarity, terms, payments, and site usability.

Slot sites and licensing

Are all the slot sites you list licensed?
We aim to feature operators that clearly present the regulatory information relevant to UK players. Visitors should still verify the current licence details on the operator’s own site before registering.
How do you rank or order slot sites?
We look at factors such as bonus structure, cashier quality, site usability, game depth, and player protection features. Commercial relationships may affect placement, but they do not remove the basic editorial checks we apply.
Can I play slots for free?
Many slot sites offer demo or free-play modes for some games, though availability varies. Some let you try games instantly, while others require registration or limit which titles can be played without a deposit.

Bonuses and offers

Are the bonus offers up to date?
We refresh our tables when we identify meaningful changes, but operator promotions can change quickly. Always confirm the latest wording and full conditions on the casino’s own promo page before acting on any offer.
What does “wagering” or “playthrough” mean?
It refers to how many times a bonus, and sometimes the deposit as well, must be staked before related winnings can be withdrawn. Good bonus comparisons should also look at time limits, eligible games, and any max-bet restrictions.

Safety and responsibility

How old do I need to be to use this site or gamble?
You must be 18 or older to gamble in the UK. Operators are expected to verify age and identity as part of the registration process.
Where can I get help with problem gambling?
We link to services such as BeGambleAware, GamCare, and GamStop. Our Responsible Gambling page has more detail and points readers toward external support that is free and confidential.
