KING BILLY WINS THE BIG ONE!
The cyber-ink of our last article about King Billy and his tendency to get awarded hasn’t even dried up yet and here we are with, you guessed, one more award for His Majesty.
King Billy, First of His Name, Rightful Ruler of the Kingdom, Guardian of the Realm and Protector of the Players (and Collector of Awards we may humbly add) has done it again. He has got one more award. And this time, it’s the biggest of them all in the Affiliate Universe.
King Billy Casino brought home its finest piece of silverware yet, the “Best Casino Affiliate Program” Award of this year’s iGB Affiliate Awards, which took place on Saturday, February, 8, 2019, at The Brewery in London. Moreover, the Servants of the King did it in style, by beating the likes of giants like Betsson and Mr Green.
We asked (again!) Ruslan Legenzov, the King Billy Casino’s Head of Affiliates (or “Lord of Affiliates” as the casino’s protocol dictates) to share a few words with us about this outstanding distinction and this is what he told us: “Guys, first of all, I must confess to you that this has been so much beyond expectations and words that I have wondered for a few moments whether I live in the Matrix.
But it’s true, definitely true! All of us here at King Billy Casino are naturally ecstatic and speechless. Personally, I would like to thank all the people in my department who have worked unbelievably hard in order to earn the respect and trust of our affiliates. To Vlad, Olivia and all the rest of our Lords and Ladies in the Department… thank you!
And, of course, we would like to thank, from the bottom of our hearts, our affiliates. All this could not have been possible without you guys! Thank you Cristina, David, Milica, Alanias, Rasmus, Milena, Nenad and the 500+ rest of our affiliates, partners and friends! This one is for you!”
This prestigious award brings King Billy’s awards tally up to four in less than a year:
- iGB 2019 Awards Best Casino Affiliate Program
- AskGamblers 2018 Awards Best New Casino
- AskGamblers 2019 Awards Best Casino – 3rd place
- AskGamblers 2019 Awards Player’s Choice Casino – 2nd place
So, anyone willing to bet that King Billy wouldn’t make it up to five or six until the end of the year? We know we wouldn’t!

Casino Guru is proud to announce that it has won in the “Casino Affiliate” category at the just-concluded EGR Operator Awards 2025. The company was distinguished amongst the world’s leading casino affiliates and crowned with the ultimate accolade.
The awards ceremony was held at the De Vere Grand Connaught Rooms in London on October 22, 2025, and marked the 20th anniversary of the EGR Operator Awards.

We are grateful to the EGR Operator Awards for this distinction, which reinforces that our work toward a safer and more transparent industry is making a real impact. Casino Guru will continue to guide players toward better and fairer gaming experiences, and we are honored to receive this award.”
Casino Guru has repeatedly delivered one of the most comprehensive services in helping inform player opinion. The website focuses exclusively on reviewing online casinos and bonuses based on criteria that matter to the players, such as fair bonus policies and general terms and conditions, ease of withdrawals, and more.
Casino Guru has also served as a trustworthy mediator in disputes between players and casinos, having returned more than $52m in player funds through the Complaint Resolution Center, and making sure it offers a comprehensive service that goes beyond its meticulous reviewing process.
To help quantify the data points Casino Guru leverages to make decisions about what casinos are worthwhile, the company has developed the bespoke Safety Index metric, which gauges a casino offer based on player-specific preferences, overall fairness, and industry standards, and assigns a rating that players can trust.
This is the latest distinction secured by Casino Guru over the past several months. Casino Guru is also contending in various categories for the SiGMA Central Europe B2C Awards as well as in the AffPapa iGaming Awards LatAm.
