About CasinoHawks
Who We Are & What We Do
At CasinoHawks, our experienced casino analysts and editors share the same mission. We want to help UK players confidently navigate the online casino market and make informed decisions.
Our overall goal is to reduce player uncertainty with in-depth reviews, comparisons and easy-to-follow guides that are regularly updated.
To bring our readers this information, we always conduct first-hand testing. Our process involves opening accounts, depositing funds, claiming bonuses, and verifying KYC and withdrawal times. By doing this, we can condense complex information into easy-to-digest content. We only ever review UKGC-licensed casino sites and make a point to flag anything untoward or risky.
Our recommendations are driven entirely by data and remain completely impartial. While any commercial partnerships will be fully disclosed, we maintain a firm policy that operators cannot buy, influence, or secure higher ratings.
Our Core Values
Transparent reviewsÂ
We believe in absolute honesty in everything we do – our ratings, partnerships, and the way we evaluate every casino using our 6-pillar testing system.
Player safety first
Player safety and well-being come above everything else, always. We ensure that resources, tools and links can be accessed easily.
Clear, accurate information
We simplify casino jargon and complex information, making our content easy to understand, accessible for everyone and practical for UK players.
Impartiality & integrity
Our reviews are strictly driven by data, following the same standardised checklist. Rest assured, our reviews will never be swayed by commercial influence. Â
We Put Player Safety First
Protecting players is at the very core of what we do. Our mission extends beyond standard casino reviews by providing our readers with resources that prevent gambling-related harm, equip players with the tools to self-manage their activity, and guide those affected toward the necessary support.
Our Safer Gambling guide is here to clearly explain tools like limits, reality checks, and time-outs. Our Gambling Addiction guide also breaks down the signs of gambling harm and tells you exactly where to go and what to do if gambling stops being a source of enjoyment. We aim to cut through the casino jargon, so every term and condition is easy to understand.
As part of our commitment to safer gambling, we will never promise or guarantee wins. We will always strive to provide our readers with vital information that clearly explains all bonus terms, including wagering requirements, time limits, and exclusions, so that you can make your own informed decisions.
For free, confidential support, UK players can reach out to organisations such as GamCare, GambleAware and the NHS. Self-exclusion can be organised through GAMSTOP.
How We Review Casinos – Our 6 Pillars

All of our casino reviews follow a six-pillar methodology to ensure consistency and provide complete clarity. We scrutinise every casino brand’s trust & safety, bonus terms & promotions, payments, games, customer support and real player popularity.
By maintaining transparent and independent reviews, we ensure that every recommended casino meets the highest standards in the areas that matter most to players.

How We Maintain Independence & Accountability
Transparency matters to us. That’s why we maintain strict editorial standards to ensure our content is always responsible, accurate, and independent. Each of our articles follows a structured workflow:
- Our writers draft up the content.
- Specialist reviewers fact-check and refine.
- Our safety & compliance team double-checks that it meets legal and ethical requirements.
- Finally, the editor will approve the final copy, ready for publication.
By sticking to this process, we build the foundation for guidance that our readers can always rely on. For further information, refer to our Editorial Guidelines.
We earn affiliate commissions from partner links, but this financial relationship does not influence our ratings or editorial opinions. Our recommendations are based solely on impartial facts and maximum player value. Please review our full Terms & Conditions to learn more.
