# How to check a casino domain without trusting a lookalike

Start with exact domains and official documents, not a familiar logo.

By Casimo Research. Explanatory guide; not a first-person casino test.

## Read the hostname

A brand name in a subdomain, path or page title does not make the hostname official. Casimo compares the supplied hostname against its documented registry and does not fetch arbitrary submitted sites.

## Signals are not verdicts

A new domain, shared platform or missing app-store listing is not proof of fraud. An unknown site stays unknown until the identity can be supported by sources.

## Never send login or identity details to a checker

Domain research should not require a casino password, verification code, wallet seed or identity document. If you suspect a scam, use an appropriate official reporting channel.
