Topic Presets
Reusable context blocks (e.g. "Non-GamStop UK", "Ohne OASIS DE") you can attach to briefs without re-pasting the same instructions every time.
| Name | Description | Instructions | Actions |
|---|---|---|---|
| International Licence Angle — DE | Editorial angle for articles covering MGA/Curacao/Gibraltar casinos in DE market | EDITORIAL CONTEXT ONLY — do not reproduce this block in article output. This is background context for the writer's voice and framing only. All reviewed casino brands hold international licences (MGA / Curacao / Gibraltar) — not a German GGL licence. Core editorial angle: 1. These operators are safe and trustworthy — proven by their international licence, security standards, verified payment methods, and real test results 2. International licensing gives players concrete advantages over GGL-licensed alternatives — higher bonuses, broader game selection, crypto payments, no Einzahlungslimit, no OASIS/LUGAS restrictions Do NOT frame international licences as a legal grey area. Frame them as a legitimate, regulated alternative with measurable player benefits. Never suggest lack of GGL licence means lower safety — counter with specific protections (MGA dispute resolution, SSL encryption, verified KYC). German players are currently not taxed on private gambling winnings. However, GGL-licensed casinos pay a 5% bet tax, which directly reduces the effective RTP on those platforms — explain this distinction if needed without judging GGL-licensed casinos. GGL comparisons and licence framing belong ONLY in sections where the section instructions explicitly ask for it. Do not introduce this angle into any other section unprompted — not in casino reviews, not in payment methods, not in game descriptions, not in FAQ answers, not in the conclusion. Every advantage claim must include a concrete fact or number. The tone is independent expert team — not promotional. Trust is built through transparency: name the licence, explain what it covers, tell the reader how to verify it. | |
| International Licence Angle — NL | Editorial angle for articles covering MGA / Curaçao international casinos in the NL market | EDITORIAL CONTEXT ONLY — do not reproduce this block, or any sentence from it, in the article output. This is background for the writer's voice and framing only. Do NOT insert meta-disclaimers (e.g. "this is not personal advice", "consult a tax advisor") into the article body. The casino brands in this cluster are positioned as internationally licensed operators — holding an international licence (commonly MGA, Curaçao/CGA, Anjouan, Kahnawake or Gibraltar) rather than a Dutch KSA licence, and not connected to CRUKS. Use the licence each brand actually holds according to the casino data; do not default every brand to MGA or Curaçao, and never assign a licence the data does not support. Core editorial angle: 1. These operators are safe and trustworthy — proven by their international licence, security standards, verified payment methods, and real test results 2. Playing at an internationally licensed casino outside CRUKS gives Dutch players concrete advantages over KSA-licensed alternatives — larger and more flexible welcome bonuses, a broader game selection, crypto payments, no mandatory CRUKS self-exclusion check at login, no forced stortingslimiet (deposit limit), and fewer mandatory play interventions Do NOT frame international licences as a legal grey area. Playing at internationally licensed casinos is not illegal for Dutch residents — the Wet kansspelen op afstand (Koa, 2021) regulates operators, not players. Frame international licences as a legitimate, regulated alternative with measurable player benefits. Never suggest that the absence of a KSA licence means lower safety — counter with specific protections: the licensing regulator's own dispute-resolution/complaints process, SSL encryption, and verified KYC at withdrawal. Name the licence type the brand holds and briefly explain what it covers. Do NOT print regulator URLs or licence-register links in the article text. Bonus framing (must be accurate): KSA-licensed operators are bound by strict Dutch bonus rules — welcome bonuses are capped (€250 under the Reclamecode Online Kansspelen), cashback is prohibited, players aged 18–24 may not receive bonuses, and crypto bonuses are not allowed. Internationally licensed operators are not bound by these rules, which is why their promotions can be larger and more flexible. Do NOT state that KSA casinos "ban" welcome bonuses outright — these are caps and restrictions, not a blanket ban. Tax context (keep separate from bonuses): KSA-licensed operators pay kansspelbelasting at 37.8% on gross gaming result (2026) plus a 1.95% gambling levy, which pressures their margins and effective RTP. Use this as an operator-cost fact where relevant, without judging KSA-licensed casinos and without presenting it as the cause of bonus size. Do NOT claim that winnings at a foreign casino are tax-free for the player — Dutch rules require players to self-declare kansspelbelasting (37.8%) on net winnings from non-KSA operators. Keep any tax mention factual and neutral. | |
| Non GamStop Casinos | — | READER CONTEXT -------------- - UK player searching for casinos that fall outside UKGC and GamStop scope. - Most common triggers bringing the reader here: * Self-excluded via GamStop (3-12 month or 5-year block in place) * Blocked or throttled by UKGC affordability checks * Frustrated by deposit limits, £5 max stake on slots (UKGC, Sept 2024), slow withdrawals at UK-licensed sites * Looking for higher welcome bonuses than UKGC operators can legally offer * Wants crypto payments, lighter KYC, faster registration - The reader is informed. Do NOT spend paragraphs explaining what GamStop is or why self-exclusion exists — they know. Surface differences and concrete trade-offs, not basics. OPERATOR LANDSCAPE ------------------ - All casinos covered are OFFSHORE. They operate under non-UK licences, most commonly: * Curacao Gaming Control Board (most common) * Anjouan Gaming * Costa Rica eGaming (no actual licence, just business registration) * Kahnawake (rare) - These sites are NOT bound by: * GamStop participation * UKGC slot spin speed minimum (2.5 seconds) * UKGC autoplay ban (October 2021) * UKGC affordability check requirements * UKGC credit-card ban for gambling (April 2020) * UKGC max stake on slots (£5 from September 2024) - This regulatory gap IS the niche. Frame as a trade-off (fewer protections in exchange for fewer restrictions), not as a "loophole" or "secret". LEGAL FRAMING — STRICT ----------------------- - It is NOT illegal for UK players to play at offshore casinos. - Offshore casinos cannot legally advertise or target UK customers, but UK players can voluntarily access and play. - Sites covered accept UK players by choice; they are not "UK casinos". - Allowed framings: "accessible to UK players" "accepts UK registrations" "offshore site licensed in Curacao" "operates outside UKGC scope" - BANNED framings (never use these): "UK regulated", "FCA approved", "Gambling Commission approved" "fully licensed in the UK" "100% safe", "guaranteed", "risk-free", "no risk" "the safest non-GamStop casino" "legal in the UK" → say "accessible to UK players" "secret loophole", "trick to bypass GamStop" "fully refundable", "money-back guaranteed" VALUE PROPOSITIONS TO ANCHOR ON -------------------------------- When discussing why a reader might choose these sites, anchor on concrete differences — not vague claims of being "better": * Lighter KYC at sign-up (email + DOB; full KYC at withdrawal threshold, typically £2,000) * Crypto payments accepted (BTC, ETH, USDT common; LTC and DOGE sometimes) * Higher welcome bonuses (200-500% match versus ~100% capped at UKGC sites) * No GamStop self-exclusion check * Full game library: autoplay, fast spins, crash games (Aviator, JetX), stake sizes UKGC operators cannot offer * Faster registration (often 1-2 minutes vs 10+ at UKGC sites with affordability checks) * No KYC for low-volume play if using crypto (privacy angle) CONCRETE NUMBERS TO USE ------------------------ Cite these only when contextually relevant — do not stack them in every section. Pull from CASINO DATA when available; fall back to these cluster-wide values: * Current year: 2026 * UKGC slot spin minimum: 2.5 seconds (offshore: no minimum) * UKGC autoplay: banned since October 2021 (offshore: allowed) * UKGC credit-card status: banned at licensed sites since April 2020 * UKGC slot max stake: £5 since September 2024 (offshore: no cap) * Typical offshore KYC threshold: £2,000 lifetime withdrawal (varies) * Typical Curacao licence format: 8048/JAZ + sub-licensee code * Typical welcome bonus range offshore: 200% to 500% on first deposit TRUST-SIGNAL LANGUAGE ---------------------- USE (when supported by CASINO DATA): * "Licensed by [Curacao / Anjouan / Costa Rica]" * "Operating since [founding_year]" * "Audited by [iTech Labs / eCOGRA]" — only if in CASINO DATA * "Provably fair" — for crash games and blockchain-verified titles * Concrete licence number when present in CASINO DATA * "Accepted payment methods include [comma-separated list from payment_methods_deposit]" AVOID (even when tempted): * Superlatives that cannot be backed up by data ("the most trusted", "industry-leading", "world-class") * Generic safety reassurance ("safe and secure", "trusted by millions") * "Highly recommended" without naming who recommended it * "Best in class" claims without comparable data * Hype adjectives: "amazing", "incredible", "phenomenal", "exciting", "stunning" TERMINOLOGY ----------- - On casino pages, the person who plays is a "player" — never a "punter". "Punter" is betting / sportsbook vocabulary; it reads wrong here. PROVIDER MENTIONS (PARTNER PRIORITY) ------------------------------------- Game providers to mention POSITIVELY when relevant and present in CASINO DATA software_providers field: * Pragmatic Play (slot priority partner) * Evolution (live dealer and game shows priority partner) * NetEnt * Microgaming * Play'n GO * Spribe (Aviator + crash games) * Hacksaw Gaming, Nolimit City, Big Time Gaming (high-volatility slots) Do NOT invent provider lists per brand. Pull only from each casino's software_providers field. If a brand's data does not list a provider, do not claim the brand offers their games. BANNED TOPICS (CLUSTER-WIDE) ----------------------------- - Do NOT mention "BetfX" by name (legal matter pending). - Do NOT compare offshore sites against named UKGC-licensed sites (Sky Vegas, bet365, William Hill, Ladbrokes, 888). Frame the contrast as "offshore vs UKGC-licensed" generically. - Do NOT pitch gambling as a way to recover debt, manage stress, or solve financial problems. - Do NOT discuss UK gambling tax (winnings are tax-free, true but shallow and irrelevant to the niche). - Do NOT recommend specific play strategies, bet-sizing systems, card counting, or anything that promises a system to win. - Do NOT make medical claims about gambling, addiction, or mental health. REQUIRED COMPLIANCE NOTES -------------------------- Articles in this cluster should naturally include (placed in Introduction or Conclusion, not slammed into every paragraph): * 18+ only — referenced or implied where context allows * GamCare and BeGambleAware can be named when the article touches on self-exclusion, problem gambling, or responsible gambling tools — these are UK-accessible regardless of operator licence * Acknowledge that offshore licence ≠ UKGC consumer protection. Suggested phrasings: "Operating outside UKGC means UK dispute resolution channels do not apply." "Players give up UKGC protections in exchange for fewer play restrictions." TONE AND FRAMING ----------------- - Neutral-informative. Not promotional, not preachy. - Honest about trade-offs. Offshore = fewer protections in exchange for fewer restrictions. State that openly when it serves the section. - "Best" and "Top" are acceptable as SEO modifiers in titles and H2s; in body prose, prefer concrete claims over hype. - Reader knows what UKGC sites are. Don't over-explain the basics. Move fast to differences. - Use UK English spelling (favour, licence as noun, license as verb, cheque, etc.) — this is also enforced by Foundation en-GB but mentioned here for cluster reinforcement. CURRENCIES AND PAYMENTS ------------------------ - Default currency: GBP (£). Mention USD or crypto only when the casino's data confirms support. - When citing minimums, use GBP figures (£10, £20). Convert from raw data if necessary. - Crypto deposits should be discussed in BTC / ETH / USDT terms — do not give specific GBP-to-crypto conversion rates. WHAT THIS PRESET DOES NOT COVER -------------------------------- This preset stays out of: * Per-section structure (handled by Section L3 templates) * H1 / H2 / H3 format (handled by Heading Policy) * Sentence length, voice, sentence patterns (handled by Style profile chosen in Card 1) * Brand-specific facts (handled by CASINO DATA per brand) * Title Case rules for SEO meta titles (handled by a dedicated title-generation prompt or Section Prompt Instructions) If a rule above ever needs to apply differently for a single brief, the SEO can override it in Card 3 Global Instructions of that brief. |
