Fake games means that counterfeit or unauthorized versions of casino games have been identified on a platform. These fake games often mimic legitimate ones but may have altered payout rates, unfair algorithms, or security risks.

If an online casino is caught offering fake games, Gamecheck flags its status in our system and updates its profile to show “Fake Games Detected.” We then share our findings with the player community to raise awareness and warn others not to trust the site. The casino continues to be monitored regularly.

Yes, you can report a suspicious online casino to Gamecheck. If you come across an online casino that seems suspicious, simply submit it using the “Request Verification” form on our website. Our team will review it and take the necessary steps to protect players.

"Real Games" are original, unmodified games officially licensed by the original game providers, verified for fairness and functionality, and offered directly, never copied, cloned, or modified. These games work as intended by the developers and offer real payouts, algorithms, and user experiences.

“Pending Checks" means that an online casino is still undergoing testing to verify the authenticity and fairness of its games. The evaluation has either not yet begun or is still in progress, and the final status—whether the games are real or fake—will be determined once the checks are completed.

Yes, if you report an online casino to Gamecheck, your identity will be protected. We value your privacy and confidentiality, and any information provided during the reporting process will be kept secure and used solely for investigative purposes. Additionally, you don’t have to provide your email or name. You can simply request a verification, and we’ll get to work immediately.

Yes, you can see how often a check has been performed on a particular online casino through its profile page on Gamecheck. We provide information about the outcomes of these checks, including whether any fake games were spotted or if the online casino has been verified for operating a selection of real games (Play with Confidence).

Some casino profiles on Gamecheck display mixed statuses—such as both "Real Games Detected" and "Fake Games Detected"—because Gamecheck conducts ongoing monthly checks, and a casino’s status can change over time depending on whether fake games are later added or removed, with the full inspection history shown publicly to ensure transparency for players.

Yes, Gamecheck’s verification services are available to players in all countries. Our platform is designed to provide information and support to users worldwide, allowing them to make informed decisions about the online casinos they choose to play with.

The verification process at Gamecheck is transparent, but there are limits on what is shared. We provide players and online casinos with access to specific findings, including the online casino URL, online casino name, and the dates and timestamps of when we conducted our checks. However, detailed evidence and internal analyses are shared only with gaming providers for confirmation purposes.

An online casino must pass initial verification checks, with evidence of real games confirmed by partnered game providers; after three months of clean checks, it may receive a unique Gamecheck Profile ID, with the SEAL backed by monthly rechecks and subject to removal at any time.

Each Gamecheck SEAL includes a unique QR code that can only be scanned using the Gamecheck App, ensuring it can’t be faked or copied, displays the live status of the casino, and provides instant access to the casino’s Gamecheck profile page.

Only the Gamecheck App can confirm SEAL authenticity by scanning the QR code, uploading an image of a SEAL, or clicking a SEAL on a website, which will open the app and reveal the current verification status.

The SEAL confirms that multiple games from multiple providers have been checked and verified as genuine by the original game owners. However, players should still review the casino’s terms and conditions, ensure it is legally authorised in their country, and treat the SEAL as one layer of trust—not the sole factor in their decision-making.

Verification is ongoing and randomised, with monthly re-checks to ensure continuous compliance—if any fake game is later detected, the SEAL is removed immediately and the casino is exposed to all our followers.

No. The SEAL confirms that a sample of games tested during the check were verified as real by the original game providers. It is not a guarantee for every single game on the platform.

If you suspect misuse, report it via the Gamecheck website or by emailing help@gamecheck.com, and scan the SEAL using the Gamecheck App to confirm its authenticity.

No. The Gamecheck SEAL is not a license and does not imply legal operation in your jurisdiction. It is a verification of game authenticity only.

If fake games are detected, the SEAL is revoked instantly, the casino profile is updated to show “Fake Games Detected,” the breach is made publicly visible on the Gamecheck platform, and we heavily expose casinos that engage in this behaviour.

Gamecheck uses blockchain technology to securely log all verification data, ensuring each inspection—whether it confirms real games or detects fakes—is tamper-proof, transparent, and traceable. This creates a permanent public record that cannot be altered by anyone, including Gamecheck or casino operators. It builds trust, reinforces accountability, and allows players to independently verify a casino’s authenticity and check history.

This verification page is provided by Gamecheck to give players clear, reliable information about the current status of a specific online casino. It confirms that a selection of games on the site has been checked and verified as real by the original game providers. The page also confirms that these games meet all relevant technical standards. All verification data is securely stored on the blockchain to ensure full transparency, traceability, and protection against tampering. This page is only accessible through the Gamecheck app to prevent misuse and ensure authenticity.

The Gamecheck app helps players check whether online casinos offer real games supplied by their official game providers. It connects directly to Gamecheck’s verification system, giving players transparent, evidence-based results before they play.

Yes. If you suspect a casino might be offering fake games, you can use the Gamecheck app to request a verification. This asks Gamecheck to run checks on that casino and confirm whether its games appear real. Every request is reviewed by the verification team and validated by the original game providers where applicable.

The app uses verification data provided directly by the original game providers. This process detects fake or unauthorised copies and ensures that verified SEALs display only genuine, provider-approved games.

Only the Gamecheck app can confirm SEAL authenticity. You can scan the QR code, upload a screenshot, or tap a SEAL on a website. The app will instantly show whether it’s valid, active, or revoked.
