Hi, I'm Kate. I grew up near Brighton & Hove, studied Marketing in Cardiff, and then spent the better part of a decade on the other side of the gambling industry — as an affiliate manager in Malta and the UK, working with some of the biggest names in the business. These days I put all of that to use here at BestGamblingOffers.co.uk, mainly on bonuses, promotions, and casino reviews.
Poker's where it started for me, if I'm honest. Malta is basically iGaming's home turf — half the office ends up at a poker table sooner or later, whether it's client drinks or a work night out, and it didn't take long before I was hooked. From there it was a short step to online casino games generally: partly for fun, partly because you can't really manage bonus offers for a living without understanding exactly how the games behind them work.
Years of doing that professionally means I've played more slots, live tables, and casino promos than I'd like to admit, and I've got a decent feel by now for which offers are genuinely worth claiming and which are dressed-up marketing with the odds quietly stacked against you. That's really what I try to bring to this site: not just "is this a good bonus," but "what does this bonus actually do once you read past the headline number."
I enjoy putting this together for you, and I hope it saves you some of the digging I used to have to do myself.
Education and Professional Career
I studied Marketing at university in Cardiff, which wasn't a deliberate plan to end up in gambling — it just turned out that marketing skills are exactly what iGaming affiliate teams are built on. My first proper break came through a UK-based affiliate role, before I moved out to Malta, where a huge share of the industry's operators and affiliate networks are based. Working there for several years, across both Malta and the UK, put me in front of the affiliate programmes and bonus structures of some genuinely well-known household betting and casino brands.
Seeing exactly how those offers get built the incentives behind them, and where the fine print does the heavy lifting — is what eventually pulled me toward the content side of things instead. These days I write reviews and bonus breakdowns here at BestGamblingOffers.co.uk, using that background to look at offers the way an insider would rather than taking the marketing at face value.
Why I Chose to Work in Gambling
Honestly, it wasn't one big decision — it crept up on me. Years spent reading terms and conditions, checking competitors' offers, and sitting in on how bonus campaigns actually get planned meant I already knew more about this industry than most people who just play casually. Add a genuine love of the games themselves, and writing reviews felt like the obvious next step: a way to use what I know from the operator's side to actually help the player's side for once.
