How We Rate Casinos
At Billy Rubin's Blog, we evaluate online casinos with a comprehensive methodology to help Aviator game enthusiasts find trustworthy platforms. Our ratings are based on rigorous testing and analysis of key factors that matter most to Indian players in 2026.

8. Our Rating Scale
We use a 1-10 scoring system to provide clear, comparable ratings:
- 9-10 (Excellent): Top-tier casino with all major criteria met, exceptional in most areas, ideal for serious Aviator players
- 7-8 (Good): Well-regulated platform with solid features, minor limitations in specific areas
- 5-6 (Fair): Acceptable casino with some concerns, might lack in key areas like customer support or game variety
- 3-4 (Poor): Significant issues present, questionable licensing or poor player experience
- 1-2 (Avoid): Unregulated, fraudulent, or dangerous platforms with unresolved complaints and player safety concerns
Licensing & Regulation is weighted most heavily in our scoring. A casino cannot score above 5 without proper licensing, regardless of other features. All ratings are updated regularly to reflect changes in casino operations, software updates, and new player feedback as of 2026.
