About Gambler Club
Gambler Club is an independent editorial project that compares online casinos for adults in Canada and New Zealand. We are not a gambling operator: we take no bets, hold no player funds and run no games. Our product is verified information.
Who we are
Gambler Club was built by a small team of industry writers and reviewers who were tired of comparison sites that rehash marketing copy. We focus on two markets — Canada and New Zealand — and cover the details that matter to players there: CAD and NZD accounts, Interac and iDebit banking, and the licensing questions that come up in provinces outside Ontario and under New Zealand's Gambling Act 2003.
Every page we publish is written and edited by people, working from first-hand testing and public operator terms. Nothing is generated from affiliate feeds.
How we test casinos
We test the way a real player would:
- Register — we open an account with our own details and complete the identity verification checks the casino requests.
- Deposit — we fund the account using a local method where available, such as Interac or iDebit, and note what worked and what did not.
- Play — we try the slots, live dealer tables and any sports section, on desktop and mobile, and we read the bonus terms before opting in to anything.
- Withdraw — we request a cashout and time every stage, including the identity checks that often slow first withdrawals down.
- Contact support — we ask ordinary questions through live chat and email and judge the answers on speed and accuracy.
If we could not verify a claim publicly — a bonus figure, a minimum deposit, a licence — we either omit it or state that it is not published. We do not guess.
Who writes
- Sarah Mitchell, Editor-in-Chief — methodology, casino reviews and the policies in this section. Sarah has the final say on every score.
- Liam Foster, Banking and Payments Editor — Interac, iDebit, e-wallets, crypto and everything to do with getting money in and out.
- Emma Clarke, Slots and Games Reviewer — slots, providers and live casino, including the pokies libraries New Zealand readers ask about.
Hub pages and news roundups carry the byline Gambler Club Editorial, our shared credit for team-written pieces.
Editorial independence and affiliate disclosure
Positions in our rankings are earned through testing, not purchased. We do not sell placement, we do not accept payment for reviews, and no brand sees a score before it is published.
Like most comparison sites, we may earn a commission when a reader opens an account through a link on our site. That commission funds the work — and it has never changed a score, added a point, removed a con or moved a brand up a table. If a commercial relationship ever affects a page, we will say so on that page. The details live in our advertising policy and editorial policy.
Responsible gambling
Gambler Club is for readers aged 18 and over. Gambling is entertainment with a cost, not a way to make money. We publish limit-setting and self-exclusion guidance, we never promise winnings, and we point readers in trouble to ConnexOntario, the Responsible Gambling Council, Gambling Helpline NZ and BeGambleAware. Start with our responsible play page.
