About Us

This site is written and edited by James Whitlock, Editor-in-Chief at UKCryptoCasino.org.

We built UKCryptoCasino.org because most crypto casino “reviews” online follow the same pattern: copy the bonus terms off a casino’s homepage, repeat what every other site already says, and call it a ranking. We wanted to do this differently.

Every casino covered on this site goes through the same basic process before it earns a spot in our rankings. We check its licensing directly against the regulator it claims to hold – Curaçao, Anjouan, or elsewhere – rather than trusting a badge on a homepage. We read bonus terms in full, including the wagering requirements and bet caps that actually determine whether an offer is worth claiming. And we track real player feedback rather than relying on testimonials a casino picked for itself.

We’re also upfront about a limit worth naming directly: we’re a small, independent site, and that means we don’t always have the resources to personally deposit into and test every casino we cover with real money. Where we haven’t done that ourselves, we say so clearly – marked as researched rather than tested – instead of implying hands-on experience we don’t actually have.

UK crypto casino coverage specifically comes with its own complications, and we spend a fair amount of this site explaining them: why no UKGC-licensed casino takes crypto even though the Commission has never actually banned it, what that means for where UK players end up playing, and what protections you give up when you choose an offshore platform over a licensed one — the detail is on our page about crypto gambling and UK law. We think that context matters more than another bonus comparison table, even though we’ve got those too.

James is 37 and has spent the last four years testing online casinos — depositing, playing and withdrawing — and writing about the industry for projects across gambling media. He checks every casino covered here against its regulator’s own registry rather than the badge in the footer, reads bonus terms in full instead of repeating headline percentages, and says plainly which reviews come from real personal play and which are independent research. The verdicts on this site are his opinions, formed from playing rather than from press releases.
