Editorial Team
Three people write and check everything on SportBar.Casino. Reviews follow one public procedure — How We Test — and every page names its author, so you can see who tested what and hold us to it.
Den Ivko
Senior Casino Analyst
In iGaming since 2015 · payments & payout testing
Den started on the payments side of the industry in 2015, handling withdrawal disputes for a European e-wallet provider, and moved to reviewing casinos in 2019. That background set his method: every casino he covers gets a funded account, a real deposit and a timed withdrawal before a single line of the review is written.
During a test he logs when the deposit lands, which documents KYC requests, how many verification rounds it takes and when the money actually arrives — then compares the log against what the casino's terms promise. The differences become the review: fee thresholds, per-method processing times, clauses that only surface at the cashier. His Spinpanda test, for example, is where this site documented that iDEAL works for deposits there while withdrawals run crypto-only.
On SportBar.Casino Den wrote the Baloobet, Bizzo, Lizaro, Bilucky and Spinpanda reviews, among others, plus the World Cup 2026 betting guide. The checklist he tests against is public — see the KYC and withdrawal sections of How We Test.
Kamila Stock
iGaming Content Specialist
Writing about slots since 2018 · EN & NL sections
Kamila came to casino reviewing from the games side: she began in 2018 as a writer for a slot-review portal and has spent the years since cataloguing providers, RTP configurations and bonus mechanics. She is the most published author here — more than 35 reviews and guides across the English and Dutch sections.
Her focus is what a player actually sees. Whether an operator runs the RTP version it advertises — many license lower variants of the same slot, which is why her slot pages tell you to check the paytable in your own client, not ours. How a lobby behaves on a mid-range phone. Whether bonus terms are shown before you claim or after. Her slot guides — Sweet Bonanza, Gates of Olympus, Big Bass Bonanza and the rest of the slots section — pair provider data with her own demo and real-money sessions.
She writes in English and Dutch: every slot guide on the site, in both languages, is hers, along with part of the casino reviews in the Dutch section.

Mark Richter
Editor-in-Chief
Editing gambling content since 2013 · licensing checks
Mark has edited gambling content since 2013 and ran the review desk of a betting affiliate before taking over SportBar.Casino as editor-in-chief. He wrote the ranking methodology this site works by and signs off every review before it goes live.
His own specialty is licensing. For each brand he traces the operating company and checks it against the regulator's public register — the KSA's for the Dutch section, the MGA's and Curaçao's for the international one. That is why SportBar reviews say plainly when a "license" is only a business registration: his Winhero and MegaBet reviews both open with exactly that caveat.
Two standards he enforces across the site: a reviewer who has not deposited does not claim to have played — desk research is labelled as such — and reviews are corrected when facts change, with the update date shown on the page.
