Imogen Radcliffe

I am Imogen Radcliffe. I started writing about slot mechanics for a small Maritimes games blog in 2019 — volatility, hit frequency, why a bonus buy is priced the way it is — and moved into full-time operator testing in 2022 when it became obvious that the games were rarely the part costing people money. The cashier was.

Somewhere in there I started a spreadsheet. Every casino I have deposited at, what the withdrawal page promised, and what actually happened. It now runs to several hundred rows and it is the least glamorous and most useful thing I own. It is also why I will not give a casino a score out of ten: the interesting column is the *gap* between quoted and actual, and an average destroys exactly that.

How I work: my own money, every time. A withdrawal request from every site whether the session went well or badly, because a cashier only shows you its character on the way out. And a note of which game the free spins were actually on, because a hundred spins on a title you dislike is not a hundred spins and I have never seen an affiliate page say so.

I also tell you who each site is wrong for. If you read the five reviews above you will find a reason to skip every one of them, including the one I put top of the bill. A page that recommends everything has recommended nothing.

How Imogen Tests an Interac Casino

• Fund the account personally, never on a comped balance.
• Log which rail the Interac button opened: native e-Transfer, InstaDebit or iDebit, or a card.
• Record the gap between the withdrawal time quoted and the time delivered.
• Request a withdrawal from every site, whether the session went well or badly.
• Note which game the free spins are tied to, because the count on its own means nothing.
• Publish no scores and no payout benchmarks drawn from a single transaction.
