Terms and Conditions — Offshore Gambling

These terms and conditions govern your use of youcanevent.com ("the site", "we", "us"). By browsing our reviews, comparisons and rankings of offshore sportsbooks, you agree to the terms set out below. If you do not agree with any part of them, please stop using the site.

What this site is and is not

Offshore Gambling is an independent information and comparison resource covering offshore sportsbooks that accept US bettors — operators licensed outside the United States, typically in jurisdictions such as Curaçao, Panama or Costa Rica. We research, compare and rank these sites on factors including odds, market coverage, bonus terms, banking options and payout reliability, with a particular focus on the mobile betting experience.

We are not a sportsbook, a bookmaker, a payment processor or a gambling operator. We do not accept wagers, hold customer funds, or process bets or payouts of any kind. We are also not a legal or financial advisory service. Nothing on this site should be read as legal, tax or financial advice — for questions specific to your situation, consult a qualified professional.

The legal status of offshore sportsbooks

It's important that this is clear before you read anything else on the site. The operators reviewed here are licensed offshore, not by any US state or federal regulator. That means:

They sit in a legal grey area for US bettors — betting laws vary significantly by state, and some states prohibit online sports betting entirely while others have no regulated market at all
Offshore books carry none of the player protections that come with a US state-licensed and regulated operator, such as segregated player funds, mandated dispute resolution, or guaranteed payout enforcement
An offshore operator's willingness or ability to pay out winnings ultimately rests on that operator's own practices and reputation, not on any US regulatory backstop

You are responsible for checking the laws that apply in your own state or jurisdiction before using any offshore sportsbook. We do not verify or guarantee that using an offshore book is lawful where you live, and we accept no liability if it isn't.

Eligibility and age requirements

This site, and the sportsbooks it reviews, are intended only for adults of legal betting age — 21 or older in most US states, though some operators set the minimum at 18. Content on this site is not directed at, and must not be accessed by, anyone under the applicable legal age. By using youcanevent.com, you confirm that you meet this requirement and that you are legally permitted to engage in sports betting in your location.

No guarantees on rankings, offers or outcomes

Our rankings and reviews reflect our own research and editorial judgment at the time of publication. They are opinions, not promises. Specifically:

Editorial ratings shown on this site (for example, for Lucky Rebel, Bovada, BetOnline, BetNow, Everygame, BetUS, Sportsbetting, Xbet, MyBookie and ApuestaHoy) are our own assessments, not customer-review scores, and not a guarantee of any operator's future performance
Bonus offers, odds, market availability, payout speeds and banking options are set by each sportsbook and can change without notice; always confirm current terms directly with the operator before you rely on them
Rollover requirements, minimum odds and time limits attached to any welcome or reload bonus are the operator's terms, not ours, and it is your responsibility to read them in full before opting in
We never guarantee winnings, profitable outcomes, or that any tip, pick or strategy referenced anywhere on the site will succeed. Betting always carries the risk of losing your money, in addition to the added offshore-specific risk that an operator may delay or refuse a payout

How we assess and rank operators

Our review process looks at licensing information as published by the operator, odds and market coverage, bonus terms including rollover conditions, deposit and withdrawal methods (including cryptocurrency), payout speed and limits, verification requirements, site security, and customer support responsiveness. Commercial relationships with any operator do not buy placement or influence a rating — a site's position reflects our editorial assessment, not payment received.

Commercial disclosure and affiliate relationships

Offshore Gambling may receive commission when a reader clicks through to an offshore sportsbook and signs up, as many comparison sites do. This does not change what you pay or the terms you're offered, and it does not influence how we score or rank operators. Where an offer carries material conditions — a minimum deposit, a rollover requirement, a time limit — we aim to state those alongside the offer rather than bury them elsewhere.

Responsible gambling

Betting should be entertainment, not a source of income, and never a way to solve financial or personal problems. Offshore sportsbooks may not offer the same range of responsible gambling and self-exclusion tools that regulated US operators provide, so it's worth checking what tools (deposit limits, self-exclusion, cooling-off periods) an operator actually offers before you sign up. Never bet more than you can afford to lose, and never chase losses.

If gambling is causing you or someone you know a problem, free confidential support is available around the clock through the National Council on Problem Gambling helpline at 1-800-GAMBLER. Our Responsible Gambling page has more information and further resources.

Limitation of liability

We make reasonable efforts to keep information on this site accurate and current, but we cannot guarantee that every detail — including bonus terms, odds, licensing status or payout times — is up to date at the moment you read it, since operators can and do change these without notice. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Offshore Gambling is not liable for any loss, financial or otherwise, arising from your decision to use any offshore sportsbook referenced on this site, from reliance on information published here, or from any dispute between you and an operator.

You use any offshore sportsbook entirely at your own risk. We are not a party to any agreement between you and an operator, and we cannot intervene in account, banking or payout disputes on your behalf.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes in our review process, the sites we cover, or legal and regulatory developments. The date shown at the top of this page reflects the most recent update. Continued use of youcanevent.com after changes are posted means you accept the revised terms.
