Chloe O'Sullivan

With NewCasinoRank since November 2023

Chloe O'Sullivan is a writer at NewCasinoRank, originally from Galway and now based in Dublin. She trained as a journalist and writes casino reviews and guides for players in Ireland.

Her focus is making terms and regulation readable: what a licence means for a player, what a bonus costs to clear, and what a new casino has not yet shown. Outside work she enjoys poker strategy, the history of slot design and walks along the Wild Atlantic Way.

For Irish readers she follows the Gambling Regulation Act 2024 as it comes into force, from the credit card ban to the GRAI's licensing timetable, and what it means at the casinos on our list.

How Chloe works

How Chloe writes about new casinos

Chloe writes from sources: the casino's own terms, the regulator's register and the facts on our list. In reviews she separates what a casino states from what has been checked, and she names the licence a casino holds, since no online casino is licensed in Ireland yet.

She writes risks plainly. A casino in its first year has no record of paying out over time, and an offshore licence gives an Irish player little to fall back on. Her reviews say so.

I break down terms and regulation in plain language, so Irish readers know what an offer costs and what a licence does and does not protect.

Questions for Chloe

How do you choose which new casinos to write about?

New casinos that join our list and accept players in Ireland, and the brands readers ask about.

How do you review a new casino?

I start from the facts it states: founding year, licence, studios, payments and terms. I check the licence where the regulator publishes a register, read the bonus and general terms, and note what is missing.

How do you explain a bonus?

By its cost. I set the wagering against the bonus so readers can see whether the offer is likely to be worth claiming.

What else do you write?

Guides on terms, responsible gaming and Ireland's new gambling rules.
