Reading the table

Read the check rows from the top. The first three ask whether a licence exists and covers the site; only four brands get past the second, and none past the third. A Pass on safer-gambling tools means the tools are stated, not that we used them.

The last five rows are what each operator publishes, read on 28 Oct 2026; we claimed no bonus and made no deposit. The bonus wagering guide turns each multiple into ringgit.

No column here is a licence to operate in Malaysia. For the operators that do hold one, see the Genting casino review and the gambling law guide.
