Cons
- Owner identity is hidden in WHOIS records, per ScamAdviser

- Does not accept players from Spain
- No locally regulated welcome bonus in Thailand (banned by law)
Our verdict
Nova88 is a long-established, multilingual offshore sportsbook and casino targeting Southeast Asian players, with its domain registered since 2015 (about a decade of continuous operation), organizationally registered in Curacao with servers in Singapore, per ScamAdviser's independent domain-trust assessment, which concludes the site is 'legit and safe for consumers to access' with a Very Likely Safe rating. However, we found real limits to how deeply we could verify this brand: its own site returns a geo-blocked access-denied page when fetched directly, its beneficial owner is hidden in WHOIS records (a factor ScamAdviser itself flags as making identification difficult), and neither casino.guru nor AskGamblers had a dedicated review page for it, so we could not independently corroborate its specific licensing status, game providers, or player complaint history. For Thailand specifically, online gambling is banned entirely and gambling sites including this one are blocked by the Ministry of Digital Economy and Society (MDES), so no locally regulated welcome bonus is available.

How we verified this
One thing we could not establish: who owns and operates this brand. The rest of this review is sourced, but an operator we cannot name is one you cannot hold to account.
Nova88's longevity (domain registered 2015) and Curacao/Singapore corporate footprint are corroborated by ScamAdviser's independent domain-trust assessment ('legit and safe,' Very Likely Safe), alongside a direct fetch of its own site (multilingual, geo-blocking in place). Neither casino.guru nor AskGamblers had a dedicated review page for this brand this session, so we could not independently corroborate specific licensing details, game providers, or player complaint history - we report this limitation honestly.
