About
Who runs this site, how we compile and score operator reviews, and why we cover offshore rather than UKGC-licensed operators.
Who we are
This site is published by Cross Signal Media Ltd, a Manchester-based editorial publisher registered in England and Wales under Companies House number 14208956. The company was incorporated on 12 May 2022 and is registered with the Information Commissioner’s Office under reference ZB756482.
Our focus is offshore online casinos accessible to United Kingdom residents. We cover operators licensed by Curacao, Anjouan, the Malta Gaming Authority, Kahnawake, and the Isle of Man. We do not cover UKGC-licensed operators editorially because that market is well served by other editorial and comparison sites.
Our editorial approach
Every operator that appears on our shortlist has been evaluated on a consistent testing methodology. We open a real account with a real card or wallet, we deposit at the minimum permitted amount, we play across the game library the operator claims to offer, we request a cashout at the smallest tier possible, and we time the payout end-to-end. We record dispute-resolution routes advertised in the operator’s terms, we verify the offshore licence claim against the regulator’s public register, and we confirm bonus terms line by line before ranking.
Operators are compared on a composite score covering licence-body stability, payout speed on the fastest available rail, welcome-bonus quality (base value and wagering multiplier considered together), game-catalog depth, dispute-resolution maturity, and cashout-cap structure across per-transaction, weekly, and monthly windows.
Editorial team
Editorial lead is Tim Mirroman, an iGaming reviewer focusing on non-GamStop casinos, bonus wagering fairness, offshore licensing, and payout speed. Every review that ships on this site carries an author byline and, on E-E-A-T signals, a linked LinkedIn profile so readers can verify the reviewer’s background. Reviews are edited for factual accuracy against the operator’s own live-published data before publish, not from operator marketing materials or from other affiliate sites.
Why offshore, not UKGC
We cover offshore because that segment is under-served by editorial publishers relative to demand from UK players. The UK gambling regulator’s remit stops at UKGC licensees; UK players legally allowed to play at offshore operators have a legitimate need for editorial coverage of that market, and that need is what this site addresses. The site takes no editorial position on whether readers should play at UKGC operators or at offshore operators; that choice is theirs.
How we make money
The site earns revenue through affiliate commissions paid by operators when a visitor referred from this site opens an account and makes a first deposit. This is disclosed in full on the affiliate disclosure page. Commission rates do not affect editorial rankings: we rank on our composite score and the score inputs are independently observed rather than paid-for.
