The BonusFinder Awards 2025 have commenced. At BonusFinder, our mission has always been simple: to help players “find the best bonuses, faster“. That’s why we’re proud to introduce the BonusFinder Awards – a celebration of the casinos that go above and beyond in delivering real value, fair play and unforgettable experiences for players.
Our team of expert judges are currently sifting through our nominees to see who trumps the rest… And our shortlist is now complete. There are five categories plus a Players Choice Award, where YOU can have a say in who is the best on the market! VOTE HERE.
The three judges who will be finalising the results, and deciding on the winners, will be Vice President Luciano Passavanti, Senior Editor, Lucy Wynne and Gambling Expert Fintan Costello.
Judging criteria will be based on: quality and value of bonuses, transparency and fairness, trust and industry reputation, commitment to responsible gambling and overall appeal.
Vice President of BonusFinder, Luciano Passavanti, commented on the inaugural upcoming BonusFinder Awards: “These awards recognise excellence in player-centric bonuses and commitment to responsible gambling. But they celebrate more than just great bonuses – they recognise the innovation, transparency, generosity and the experience of the casinos as a whole.
“As a trusted voice in the world of iGaming, BonusFinder is proud to celebrate the casinos that are redefining what it means to reward players – new and old. It’s an honour to recognise casinos that are redefining what excellence looks like in the world of casino.”
The BonusFinder Awards
Each award highlights what matters most to players when choosing where to play. Here’s what we’ll be recognising:
🏆 Transparent Terms
Clear, fair and easy-to-understand terms are vital to player trust. This award goes to casinos that set the standard with transparent terms and conditions, making it simple for players to know exactly what they’re signing up for. By celebrating transparency, we shine a light on operators who put fairness first.
🏆 Pioneering Bonus Innovation
The industry never stands still – and neither should bonuses. This award highlights casinos that push the boundaries with new, exciting, and creative bonus formats. By rewarding innovation, we encourage operators to keep surprising and delighting players.
🏆 Slot Showstopper Bonus
Slots are the heartbeat of online casinos, and free spins or slot-specific offers can make all the difference. This award recognises the very best slot bonuses on the market – bonuses that deliver great value and plenty of thrills without burning the bank.
🏆 Ultimate Bonus Experience
It’s not just about the size of a bonus, but how rewarding the overall experience is. This award recognises casinos offering the very best in value, usability and fun. From generous match offers to exciting extras, this category showcases the all-round champions of bonus play.
🏆 Player’s Choice
Finally, this award is decided by the people who matter most – the players themselves. Voted for by the public, the Player’s Choice Award shines a spotlight on the casino that players love the most. It’s the ultimate seal of approval from the community.
