Last updated: June 2026 — James Wilson, Funny Tomato
At Funny Tomato (funny-tomato.com), every review you read is the result of a structured, hands-on evaluation process carried out personally by site owner and lead reviewer James Wilson. This page explains exactly how we assess Mostbet and any other casino platform we cover, so you always know what our scores mean and how we arrived at them.
We believe Arizona players deserve honest, research-backed information before they deposit a single dollar. That commitment to transparency starts right here, with a full breakdown of our methodology.
Before James creates an account or places a single bet, he conducts background research on the operator. This includes verifying the company's registration details, looking up any regulatory history, reading player forum threads, and cross-referencing complaints on independent watchdog sites. No review begins without this groundwork.
James personally registers a real account using his own details. He goes through the full KYC (Know Your Customer) process to assess how smooth, transparent, and secure the sign-up flow is. This step reveals friction points that only a real user would encounter.
Real money is deposited using multiple payment methods available to Arizona players. James tests deposit speeds, minimum limits, any hidden fees, and whether the process matches what is advertised on the site.
Promotions are claimed exactly as a new player would claim them. James reads the full terms and conditions, tracks wagering requirements in practice, and notes any restrictions that might not be immediately obvious from the bonus headline offer.
James plays a representative sample of games across categories — slots, table games, and live dealer titles where available. He evaluates loading speed, fairness indicators, software quality, and the overall entertainment experience.
Support is contacted through every available channel — live chat, email, and any phone lines — at different times of day. James logs response times, the quality of answers, and how staff handle both simple and complex questions.
A withdrawal is requested to test processing times, any verification hurdles at the cashout stage, and whether the funds arrive within the stated timeframe.
The full review process is repeated on mobile, using both a browser and any dedicated app. James assesses layout, navigation, game availability, and whether the mobile experience matches the desktop version in quality.
Each casino is scored out of 10 points across six core categories. The final overall score is a weighted average based on how much each category matters to a typical Arizona player.
| Category | Weighting | What We Assess |
|---|---|---|
| Licensing and Safety | 25% | Valid gaming licenses, SSL encryption, responsible gambling tools, data protection practices, and regulatory compliance |
| Bonuses and Promotions | 20% | Welcome offer value, wagering requirements, time limits, game restrictions, and ongoing promotions for existing players |
| Game Selection | 20% | Volume and variety of titles, quality of software providers, RTP transparency, and availability of live dealer games |
| Payment Methods | 15% | Deposit and withdrawal options, processing speeds, transaction limits, and fee transparency |
| Customer Support | 10% | Availability hours, response speed, quality of assistance, and number of contact channels |
| Mobile Experience | 10% | App or mobile browser quality, game availability on mobile, ease of navigation, and loading performance |
All scores are given on a 1 to 10 scale, where each number carries a specific meaning:
The overall score displayed on each review page is the calculated weighted average across all six categories, rounded to one decimal place.
