How We Rate Casinos
At ICIS Noida, we evaluate online casinos using a comprehensive methodology to help Indian players find trustworthy platforms for playing Aviator and other games. Our ratings are based on rigorous testing and analysis across multiple criteria.
1. Licensing & Regulation
The foundation of any trustworthy casino is proper licensing and regulatory oversight. We prioritize casinos licensed by recognized authorities including:
- Malta Gaming Authority (MGA) - European standard for casino operations
- UK Gambling Commission (UKGC) - Stringent UK-based regulations
- Curaçao eGaming License - Caribbean-based regulatory body
- Indian Local Licenses - Where applicable and compliant with local jurisdictions
Casinos without verifiable licensing receive significantly lower ratings regardless of other merits.
2. Game Selection & Software Providers
We assess the variety and quality of games available, particularly focusing on:

We carefully examine bonus offerings with transparency in mind:
- Welcome bonus structure and actual value to players

8. Our Rating Scale
We use a 10-point rating system to summarize overall casino quality:
- 9.0-10.0 (Excellent) - Top-tier casinos with superior performance across all criteria. Highly recommended for Indian players.
- 8.0-8.9 (Very Good) - Trustworthy casinos with strong offerings and minimal issues.
- 7.0-7.9 (Good) - Solid casinos with adequate features, though some areas could improve.
- 6.0-6.9 (Fair) - Acceptable casinos with notable strengths and weaknesses. Caution advised.
- 5.0-5.9 (Below Average) - Casinos with significant concerns. Not recommended without careful consideration.
- Below 5.0 (Poor) - Casinos with serious red flags or licensing issues. Not recommended.
Each criterion is weighted by importance, with licensing and regulation being the most critical factor. A casino cannot achieve a high rating without proper licensing, regardless of other merits.
