Score breakdown by category
Five categories of Smarter Score 4.1 (Games 25 · Licensing & Transparency 25 · Payments & Withdrawals 20 · Bonuses & Promotions 15 · Usability & Support 15). Each category shows the points earned on the criteria we could check; the dotted part is not checked yet and stays neutral (it counts half, so it moves the score neither up nor down). Evidence coverage 85 %.
