An independent guide to licensed online gambling in Portugal

What we do

We publish detailed reviews of online casinos holding a valid licence issued by the Gambling Regulation and Inspection Service (SRIJ), the online gambling regulator in Portugal, part of Turismo de Portugal, I.P.

Every review states the licence holder and the licence number, with a direct link to the regulator’s official register, so any reader can independently confirm the information.

What we do not do

We are not a gambling operator. We do not accept bets, process deposits, manage player accounts or pay out prizes.

We do not list, promote or favourably mention operators that do not hold an SRIJ licence. We do not target anyone under 18, nor anyone registered on the self-exclusion register.

How we are funded

The site is funded through affiliate marketing. When a reader opens an account through one of our links, the operator may pay us a commission. The reader pays nothing for this, and the terms offered are exactly the same.

This compensation does not influence scores, rankings or review content. We do not accept payment to change a rating, remove a criticism or move an operator up a list. The full explanation is on our Disclosure page.

Our editorial team

The team brings together writers specialising in regulated gambling, a compliance reviewer responsible for checking every licence reference, and a Portuguese-language editor. All content is reviewed before publication.

Our contributors are prohibited from holding individual commercial relationships with operators they write about.

Corrections and transparency

If you spot an inaccuracy, write to editorial@lusopeak.com. We check every message and, when we confirm an error, we correct it and mark the date of the change on the affected page.

Reviews are revisited at least quarterly, and immediately whenever an operator’s licensing status changes in the SRIJ register.

Our responsible gambling commitment

Every page on this site carries the 18+ notice and links to support services. We do not use language suggesting that gambling is a financial solution, that presents winnings as likely or guaranteed, or that pressures readers into acting immediately.

We support and publicise the central self-exclusion register operated by the SRIJ, as well as the national and international helplines listed in our footer.
