Our Authors

Two people write and edit this site. Both are named on the pages they work on, because a page recommending casinos outside the UK licence should tell you who is doing the recommending.

Alistair Crane

Alistair Crane

Casino & payments reviewer

Alistair Crane has covered online casino payments and bonus terms for eight years, first for a UK comparison desk and since 2022 independently. He reads terms and conditions for a living, which is why every bonus figure on this site is quoted in pounds with its wagering multiple attached rather than as a headline percentage.

His focus is the mechanics a player actually meets: which payment rail pays fastest, what a casino asks for at verification, and where a multi-tier welcome package stops being worth claiming. He tests deposits and withdrawals on every casino he writes about and reports the times he measured, not the times advertised.

Rhona Mackay

Rhona Mackay

Responsible gambling editor

Rhona Mackay edits this site's safer-gambling coverage. She spent six years in frontline harm-reduction support before moving into editorial work, and she writes the sections most gambling sites treat as a compliance footnote.

Her position is that a page recommending casinos outside GamStop has a duty to be specific about what that means. That is why our Responsible Gambling page names the tools that work independently of an operator's licence — Gamban, BetBlocker and bank gambling blocks — rather than pointing at a self-exclusion scheme these casinos are not part of.
