Who writes High Payout Online Casinos, and how

This is a description of how High Payout Online Casinos works behind the page, written for anyone who wonders whether to trust what we publish.

The people. Talia Sinclair is our senior casino reviewer, with more than eight years spent testing Canadian dollar deposits and withdrawals, and she has four brand reviews published here. Roman Rossi covers banking and payments and tracks how long Interac and e-wallet cashouts really take; he has three. Their names are on the reviews because we think readers deserve to know who stands behind a judgment.

The testing routine. Reviews begin with a real account that we fund ourselves using Canadian payment options. We play, we read the cashier and the paytables, we look for the responsible gambling controls and see whether they function, and then we request a cashout and wait it out, completing smooth verification if the casino asks for it. We only write up what we actually saw. If a step could not be tested, the review says so instead of filling the gap with assumptions.

Scoring. Each casino is measured against the same published criteria, which you can read on the how we rate page. Scores follow the evidence from testing and not the other way round. If a brand's terms change in a way that matters, we retest that part and move the number.

Where the money comes from. We earn commission from affiliate links. When a reader signs up at a casino through us, the casino may pay us, and the reader pays nothing more than they would anyway. We state this openly because it is the site's only source of income and readers should weigh our opinions with that in mind. The important part is what the commission does not do: it does not buy a higher placement, a better score or a kinder paragraph. A brand that offers us a better deal gains nothing in the ranking.

Fixing mistakes. Casinos update bonus terms, limits and payment menus often, so some pages will be out of step at any given moment. Tell us at the address on the contact page and we will verify against the operator's current terms. Where we were wrong, we correct the page and record the correction.

Limits on what we claim. Our opinions are ours. We do not speak for a regulator or an operator, and we never present results as promises.
