The casinos here are not licensed by the UK Gambling Commission and offer no GamStop protection, no UK complaints route and no regulatory recourse. Pay-by-phone charges to your mobile bill with no bank check, which makes it easy to overspend. If you have self-excluded through GamStop, these sites are not for you. 18+ only.

The Short Answer
Only a minority of casinos not on GamStop accept Boku, and where they do the limits are the same everywhere: about £30 a day, £10 per transaction, and roughly £240 a month on most UK networks. Boku lets you charge a deposit to your mobile bill instead of using a card or bank, which is why it appeals, but it is deposit-only, so you cannot withdraw winnings back to a phone bill and need a second method to get paid. This page sets out which sites take it, the exact limits, and why the convenience carries a specific risk. 18+ only.
Which non GamStop casinos accept Boku?
Only a minority do, because Boku is a regulated payment channel that most offshore operators are not set up for, so it is far less common than crypto or cards at these sites. Where it appears, it works the same way regardless of the casino: you enter your mobile number, confirm by text, and the deposit is charged to your phone bill. Because so few sites support it, do not assume a casino takes Boku from a logo alone; check the cashier before you plan to use it. For the sites that do, the limits below apply identically.
Can I pay by phone bill at casinos not on GamStop?
Yes, at the minority of sites that support Boku or a similar pay-by-phone service, and it is the simplest method to start with because it needs no card or bank details. You deposit by charging the amount to your monthly mobile bill or deducting it from pay-as-you-go credit, confirmed by a text message. The catch is that this convenience is also its risk: charging gambling to a phone bill with no bank involved removes a natural checkpoint, which matters more at a site with no deposit limits and no GamStop. It is a deposit method only, never a way to withdraw.
What are the Boku deposit limits?
Boku caps deposits at around £30 a day, £10 per single transaction, and roughly £240 a month, and those limits come from the payment channel and UK networks rather than the casino. That means you cannot fund a large balance through Boku in one go, which some players see as a downside and others as a built-in brake. The limits are consistent across sites because they are set by the carriers, not the operator. If you need to deposit more than the daily cap, you would have to switch to a card or crypto, which brings its own risks at an unlicensed site.
Can you withdraw to Boku?
No. Boku and pay-by-phone are deposit-only, because there is no mechanism to pay winnings back onto a mobile bill, so any money you win has to come out through a different method. In practice that means you deposit by phone but withdraw by card or crypto, and you should set up and verify that second method before you play, not after you win. This split is worth knowing up front, because a site that took your Boku deposit instantly may handle the card or crypto withdrawal slowly, and at an unlicensed casino there is no regulator to enforce a payout time.
