Q&A With Henrik
How do you start verifying a new casino app or mobile platform?
I begin by confirming the validity of licensing and regulatory documents, then I dive into payout policies, terms and conditions, and RNG certifications. I cross-check these details with official regulator databases and independent audit reports to ensure they match the platform’s public claims.
What tools or sources do you rely on most for accuracy?
I rely heavily on official regulator registries, independent testing labs, and operator disclosures. To verify historical data, I use archived pages and also monitor payment provider information like POLi, Pay by Mobile, and Apple Pay, alongside player complaint patterns to gauge reliability.
How do you assess fairness and odds accuracy in mobile casino games?
I review RNG certifications and RTP data provided by software developers such as Evolution Gaming, Gaming Corps, and Pragmatic Play. If I spot any inconsistencies, I compare the data directly with provider documentation or testing lab reports for final verification.
How do you keep your reports transparent and traceable?
Every claim I make is linked to a verifiable source, typically a regulator’s website, an official legal document, or a report from a testing lab. I maintain detailed verification notes for every review, allowing us to update information quickly if site conditions change for New Zealand players.
