With NewCasinoRank since November 2023

Chloe O'Sullivan is a writer at NewCasinoRank. She grew up in Galway, trained as a journalist and now works from Dublin, writing reviews and guides for players in Canada.

Her focus is making the fine print readable: what a licence does and does not cover for a Canadian account, what a bonus costs to clear in dollars, and how the provincial systems in Ontario, Alberta and the rest of the country differ.

Away from work she studies poker strategy and the history of slot design, and walks the Atlantic coast.

How Chloe works

How Chloe writes about new casinos

Chloe works from sources: the casino's own terms, the regulator's register and the facts on our list. In a review she keeps what a casino claims apart from what has been checked, and she names the licence it holds, because for most casinos that accept Canadians it is not a provincial one.

She is plain about risk. A casino in its first year has no payout record, and an offshore licence gives a Canadian player little to fall back on. Her reviews say so, and they say when a fact is missing.

I translate terms and regulation into plain language, so Canadian readers know what an offer costs and what a licence does and does not protect.

Questions for Chloe

How do you pick which new casinos to cover?

New casinos that join our list and accept Canadian players, plus brands entering the regulated markets in Ontario and Alberta that readers ask about.

How do you review a new casino?

I start from what it states: launch year, licence, studios, payments and terms. I check the licence where the regulator publishes a register, read the bonus and general terms, and note what is missing.

How do you judge a bonus?

By its cost. I set the wagering against the bonus so readers can see in dollars whether the offer is likely to be worth claiming.

What else do you write about?

Guides on terms and responsible gaming, and news on provincial regulation in Canada.
