About Peter Rowlands
The editor-in-chief has worked in gambling media for over a decade, first as a sports betting writer, then as an editor running casino review desks for English-language publications. They have edited coverage of the New Zealand market since offshore operators began actively targeting Kiwi players, and they set the standards every review on this site must meet.
Their rule is simple: no figure goes to print without a source. Licence numbers, bonus amounts, wagering requirements and withdrawal timeframes are checked against the operator’s own terms before publication, and again when a review is updated. They also make sure weaknesses are stated plainly, that no review reads like an advertisement, and that responsible gambling information appears wherever it is relevant.
What Peter checks before publication
Before any review goes live, the editor-in-chief re-checks every figure against the source: licence numbers and status, bonus amounts, wagering requirements, minimum deposits and withdrawal timeframes. Player ratings and complaint counts are verified against the original platforms on the date stated. The tone is checked next — no promotional language, no unverifiable claims, weaknesses stated plainly. Finally, they confirm that responsible gambling tools and helpline details appear where relevant, and that no sentence comments on missing data.
