Managing Editor · 8 years in iGaming content · Fact-checking since 2018
Elena Voss is the Managing Editor at exBinog. She is responsible for fact-checking every review before publication — licence numbers, bonus terms, payment details, and the claims an operator makes about itself. If a review on this site contains an error, it is Elena’s job to find it before you do.
Background
Elena has worked in iGaming content since 2018, starting as a copy editor for a European affiliate network covering sports betting and casino products. Over six years she edited and fact-checked more than 1,200 pages of gambling content, from bonus terms breakdowns to regulatory explainers.
Her specialism is the unglamorous part of gambling content that most sites skip: verifying that a licence number actually matches the authority’s register, that a “35x wagering” claim in a bonus summary matches the operator’s full terms, and that a payment method advertised on a landing page actually works at withdrawal. This work rarely gets credit, but it is the difference between a review that helps a player and one that misleads them.
Since 2022, Elena has focused specifically on YMYL compliance in gambling content — making sure reviews are accurate, dated, sourced and clear about what was tested and what was not.
What Elena does at exBinog
- Fact-checking every review — licence numbers, bonus terms, wagering requirements, max-bet rules and expiry dates.
- Verifying payment claims — checking that methods listed in a review are actually available for both deposit and withdrawal.
- Enforcing editorial standards — making sure every review carries a visible author, a publication date, a last-updated date and an affiliate disclosure where relevant.
- Handling corrections — investigating reader reports of errors and updating reviews where the error is confirmed.
- Maintaining update cycles — tracking which reviews are due for their 90-day re-check and 30-day bonus-terms re-verification.
Editorial principles
Elena enforces the following standards across every page on exBinog:
- No unsourced claims. If a review says a withdrawal took 4 hours, it means the editorial team tested it and recorded 4 hours — not that the operator advertises 4 hours.
- No “tested” language where no test occurred. Reviews published before direct testing was completed say so explicitly at the top.
- No pay-to-play. Commission rates never influence scores, rankings or the order of a top-list.
- Visible dates. Every review shows both publication and last-updated dates. If nothing has changed, the update date still reflects a fresh verification.
- Clear disclosure. Every page with affiliate links carries a visible disclosure — see our Affiliate Disclosure.
