Polo is part of the CasinoGuid editorial team, specialising in casino bonus structures, wagering models, and the regulatory differences between EU markets.
Every casino featured on CasinoGuid is personally tested by the team: we deposit real funds, verify the KYC process, claim and wager bonuses, and request a withdrawal before any review is published. Offers and terms are re-checked on a rolling basis so the information stays accurate as conditions change.

We claim and play through every bonus to test the terms.
We cash out and time the payout before publishing a verdict.
