- Remote casino: casino games such as slots, roulette and blackjack offered online to people in Great Britain.
- Gambling software: supplying the software that runs gambling games.
- Remote betting on real events such as football or horse racing.
- Remote betting on simulated events such as virtual racing.
- Pool betting: stakes pooled and paid out to winners, as in a tote.

Assessments from comparison sites
For poker players who also want slots and table games under one login, PokerStars Casino is called a natural fit by comparison sites. Reviewers note a wide choice of studios, exclusive slots and table titles, a loyalty scheme and low rake on cash games. The criticisms are specific and practical: withdrawals to a debit card are described as slow, the schedule of free-entry poker events is less generous than it once was, and the support area is reached through a small help button in a corner of the screen. The sources agree that, overall, the casino is stronger for existing poker customers.
These sites are often paid by operators, a link worth keeping in mind. Drawn from independent English-language review sites, November 2026.
