Long time lurker here, so here is what I look at before signing up anywhere. After trying maybe a dozen sites I learned to read the small print first.
Licence comes first for me: find the licence number and look it up, and whether they actually accept players from your country. After that I look at banking: I want at least one fast e-wallet option, and cashout times should be listed up front.
Never judge a site by the bonus alone. Anything above 40x rollover is a red flag for me, and live tables often do not count at all. A decent independent write-up with the current terms is here revery play casino before you deposit anything.
Most of my sessions are on mobile, and a good site loads fast and does not log you out every five minutes. Ask support one simple question first: if they answer in a couple of minutes that is a good sign.
Anyway, that is my routine. Only play with money you can afford to lose.
