Finding trustworthy information about UFC betting sites outside the GamStop network is harder than it should be. The majority of review websites in this space earn money from the very operators they rank — which means every rating, every placement, and every glowing endorsement is shaped by commercial interest rather than genuine research. We built this site specifically to operate differently. We are a UK-based team of sports bettors, industry analysts, and responsible gambling advocates. Our focus is on the offshore betting market that UK players access every day but that mainstream review media rarely examines with any real rigour. Everything we publish is built around a single question: what does a British player actually need to know before depositing real money? Our content is the answer to that question — written honestly, regardless of what it means for any particular operator’s reputation. We do not accept payments from the operators we review. No placement fees, no affiliate arrangements, no sponsored content. If a site scores well on this platform, it is because we tested it and the evidence supports that score. If it scores poorly, the same applies.
Our Mission
We exist because the offshore sports betting market needs independent scrutiny and because UK players deserve better information than commercially compromised review sites can provide. Offshore UFC Betting Sites Not On Gamstop attract significant numbers of British players every year. Many of those players make decisions based on content that was written to convert their click into a referral fee, not to give them an accurate picture of what they are walking into. Our mission is straightforward: produce research-driven content that treats the reader as an intelligent adult who can make their own decisions given accurate information. That means reporting actual withdrawal speeds rather than quoting promotional timelines. It means analysing bonus terms in full and explaining what the wagering requirements actually cost in real betting behaviour. It means being direct about the regulatory gaps at Curaçao-licensed sites rather than burying that information in a footnote. We also believe that responsible gambling information belongs at the centre of what we publish, not as a compliance afterthought. Every review we produce includes an honest discussion of what players give up when they step outside the UKGC framework. Players deserve to understand that trade-off clearly.
Who We Are
We are three people based in the UK with distinct expertise across sports betting, regulatory analysis, and technical security. What brought us together was a shared frustration: we kept encountering review sites that were structurally unable to be honest because their revenue depended on the operators they were supposedly evaluating. We decided to build something that operated outside that structure entirely. There is no commercial team working parallel to our editorial process. There are no operator relationships to protect. When one of us finds a problem with a platform during testing — a delayed withdrawal, an opaque bonus clause, a licensing claim that does not hold up against the public register — it goes into the review. No one has the authority to remove it for commercial reasons, because there are none.
Meet the Team
Alistair Vance – Editorial Director
Alistair Vance spent a decade as a compliance officer for a major Tier-1 UK licensed operator, which means he has seen the internal mechanics of the gambling industry from a perspective most reviewers never access. He knows precisely how casinos delay payments, which triggers lead to invasive verification requests, and what the fine print in bonus terms actually means for a player’s real chances of withdrawing. As Editorial Director, Alistair oversees all review content and sets the forensic standard every piece must meet before publication. He is constitutionally sceptical — he does not accept a marketing claim until it has been tested at least three times under realistic conditions. His regulatory background makes him particularly sharp on licensing credibility and the practical differences between MGA and Curaçao oversight.
Danny Hayes – Lead Sports Betting Reviewer
Danny Hayes has been betting professionally on combat sports and navigating the non-UKGC market for over five years, which gives him the real-world perspective that purely academic reviewers lack. While Alistair examines compliance structures and Siobhan focuses on technical security, Danny examines the actual player experience. He tests in-play UFC betting interfaces under live event conditions, evaluates how sportsbooks handle unusual stoppages and no-contest settlements, and assesses what customer service genuinely feels like at 3am on a Sunday morning when a withdrawal is stuck in pending.
Our Independence Promise
This site accepts no payments from any gambling operator it reviews. No sponsorship deals, no placement fees, no affiliate commission arrangements, no free credits or VIP treatment from platforms under evaluation. Every account used in our testing is funded by the team with our own money. Every withdrawal test is conducted on a real balance generated through real play. This is not a legal disclaimer in the footer. It is the operational principle that makes everything else on this site worth reading. The moment a review site accepts payment from an operator it rates, the content becomes advertising. The formatting may still resemble editorial. The score may still appear next to a methodology. But the underlying incentive has been corrupted and there is no editorial principle that fully repairs it. Our self-funded independence means our scores reflect what the evidence shows. A platform that processes withdrawals reliably and holds a credible licence scores well. A platform that delays payments, obscures bonus terms, or holds a licence that provides limited player protection scores accordingly — regardless of how large its affiliate programme is or how prominently it appears in search results elsewhere.
What We Cover
Our primary content is long-form platform reviews covering the UFC and MMA betting market at offshore sportsbooks accessible to UK players. Each review is produced through a minimum two-week hands-on testing process, evaluated against eight scored criteria, and updated on a consistent schedule. When material changes occur at a platform — a licence update, a shift in payment processing, a documented pattern of player complaints — reviews are revised immediately and the change is dated clearly. Beyond individual reviews, we publish practical guides covering the legal position of UK players using offshore betting sites, how different payment methods affect withdrawal speed at these platforms, what GamStop self-exclusion covers and what it does not, cryptocurrency payment options and how they work in practice at offshore sportsbooks, and how to read bonus terms accurately before claiming an offer. Our responsible gambling section contains current information on support services available to UK players regardless of which sites they use. This content is not a regulatory tick-box — it reflects a genuine belief that player safety information belongs alongside betting advice.
Get in Touch
If your experience with a reviewed site differs significantly from our published findings — especially regarding withdrawal speed or customer service quality — we want to hear from you. Player reports that contradict our conclusions trigger a formal re-test. Getting the information right matters more than defending a published rating. If there is a platform or topic we have not yet covered that would be genuinely useful to UK UFC bettors, reach out through the contact page. We read everything and use reader feedback to decide what to cover next.
