What a year! Every year we think we've had the best one, and each next just keeps getting better! As we reach the end of 2022, it is time to take one last look at what has been an unforgettable year.
But first, we owe you thanks. A thank you for your continued support and to those who have just joined us this year. Here's to many more years together!
New and Refreshed AskGamblers Features
In 2022, we worked hard to improve one of our main staples: online casino reviews. In June, we added the responsible gambling tool tab to our casino reviews, allowing you to check what each online casino in our directory offers before signing up and doubling up on our commitment to responsible gaming. From the cooling-off period to the time wager limit tool, they're all there listed in one place.
In late November, we launched our revamped and improved casino review, offering even more information about our casinos with a better overview. We bet you have already gotten used to it, and we encourage you to comment on it and tell us if we can improve it further!
AskGamblers Podcast
Since the launch of the AskGamblers Podcast in April 2021, we have constantly been recording and publishing new episodes of our biweekly show. In 2022, we have released 13 new episodes, bringing the total count to 24! We intend to continue in the same vein in 2023, so stay tuned for more!
AskGamblers Awards and Donations
AskGamblers Awards is our most prestigious event, and this year we marked the 5th edition of our accolades. In the run-up to the event, we spearheaded a nail-biting nominations phase where AskGamblers members got to nominate their favourite casinos and slots. We then created a shortlist and asked players for their final votes. Winners on the night included:
- Best Casino – SlotWolf Casino
- Best New Casino – iWild Casino
- Best New Slot – Bigger Bass Bonanza Slot
- Best Software Provider – Relax Gaming
- Players' Choice Casino – Tsars Casino
- Best Affiliate Partner – 888 Affiliates
- Best Affiliate Manager – Elena Shokarovska – OMG Affiliates
Traditionally, as part of the AskGamblers Awards, we ran the AskGamblers charity event the night before the main gala. This year we managed to raise a whopping €60,300, diverting the funds to UNICEF for its efforts in helping the children of Ukraine.
Finally, in mid-November, we received a much-deserved recognition of our work when SiGMA Europe named AskGamblers Affiliate of the Year! We couldn't be prouder, and, as usual, we dedicated this award to you, our players.

Certified Casinos and AG Coin
We're also constantly scouring the market to find you the most trusted casinos to play at! This year seven online casinos received the AskGamblers Certificate of Trust, and we are so proud every time a casino joins the elite club.
Our AG Coin has also been busier than ever, and this year we teamed up with another two casinos where you could claim our exclusive AG Coin.
Year to date, we have handed out more than €180000 in AG Coins to 5,780 players! We know, pretty impressive numbers!
AskGamblers at Your Service
In 2022, we passed another important milestone as we helped over 17,000 of our players recover over $50 million in unfairly confiscated money! Our casino complaint service managers are entirely focused on helping you get your money back, and this is one thing that will never change.
Traditionally in March, we will publish the annual AGCCS figures, so stay tuned for more impressive numbers.
And that's a wrap! Thank you once again for sticking with us. Now join us in raising a glass to 2023!
