Casino.com has been part of the online casino industry since 2007, when it launched as a licensed operator. That background shapes everything about how this site reviews and ranks casinos: the team writing here includes people who have worked inside the industry, not just written about it from the outside. Twenty writers cover six market regions, bringing local knowledge to players in New Zealand, Canada, the UK, South Africa, the US, and India.

Casino.com [opened as a licensed online casino in 2007](https://www.casino.com/about/) and has been reviewing the industry from the inside ever since.

## What Makes This Team Different

Most casino review sites are built by people who play casinos. This one is partly built by people who ran them. Ziv Chen, Casino.com's senior iGaming consultant, spent 20+ years in senior roles at Playtech and Microgaming before joining the editorial team. That means when Casino.com assesses a casino's game library, software infrastructure, or payout reliability, the assessment draws on direct operator experience, not just a player's perspective. Sadonna Price brings the same depth: 20+ years covering online casinos, sports betting, poker, and sweepstakes. Her sweepstakes coverage adds a vertical none of the other senior writers cover.

The team covers six distinct market regions, which matters because a casino that works well for a UK player does not automatically work well for a New Zealand or South African player. Payment methods, withdrawal speeds, and regulatory protections differ by market. Each regional writer covers their market specifically, which means reviews reflect what local players will encounter, not a generic global overview.

The team includes casino operators, professional players, gambling journalists, regulatory specialists, sports betting analysts, and fact checkers. No single background dominates. That mix is deliberate: a platform assessed from multiple expert perspectives produces more reliable conclusions than one written from a single point of view.

## Frequently Asked Questions

-   ### Who writes Casino.com's casino reviews?
    
    Casino.com's reviews are written by named, credentialed writers with direct iGaming experience. The team includes former casino operators, professional players, gambling journalists, and regulatory specialists. Every review carries the author's name and links to their full profile page.
    
-   ### Are Casino.com's writers paid by the casinos they review?
    
    No. No casino pays Casino.com's writers to be reviewed, featured, or recommended. The editorial team operates independently of the site's commercial relationships. A casino's advertising spend has no influence on its review score or ranking.
    
-   ### How do I know Casino.com's experts are actually qualified?
    
    Each writer has a named profile page listing their credentials, professional background, and the articles they have published on Casino.com. Credentials are not summarised vaguely — they are specific. Ziv Chen's 20+ years at Playtech and Microgaming, for example, is verifiable public record. If a writer's background is stated, it can be checked.
    
-   ### How many writers does Casino.com have, and which markets do they cover?
    
    Casino.com currently has 20 writers covering six market regions: New Zealand, Canada, the UK, South Africa, the US, and India. Each regional writer covers their market specifically, which means reviews reflect local regulations and player expectations rather than a single-market perspective.
    
-   ### How often are Casino.com's reviews and articles updated?
    
    High-traffic reviews are checked and updated monthly. Full re-reviews, covering all scored criteria, are conducted annually. Where a casino changes its terms, withdraws a licence, or receives significant player complaints between review cycles, the review is updated outside of the regular schedule.
    
-   ### Can I read more about a specific Casino.com writer?
    
    Yes. Each writer on this page links to their individual profile at casino.com/our-team/\[name\]. Profile pages include the writer's full biography, professional background, specialism areas, and a complete archive of their published articles on Casino.com.
