What Tech Nottingham does

TechNottingham (operating from technottingham.com) is an independent online casino review and comparison platform that evaluates offshore casinos for UK-based players, with additional editorial content covering Nottingham's professional, startup, and freelance community. The core product is a review and ranking engine that scores casinos across eight weighted criteria — licence standing (25%), withdrawal speed (20%), bonus value (15%), game selection (15%), payment methods (10%), customer support (7%), responsible gambling tools (5%), and reputation (3%) — with every ranked casino re-evaluated by named human reviewers on at least a six-month cycle and a minimum two-week testing period per platform. Supporting products include a Gambling Self-Check Quiz (a 7-question PGSI-based interactive tool), a blog covering founders, freelancers, and Nottingham's tech and startup ecosystem, and an email newsletter for reader engagement. The technology stack is a standard web content platform with Google Analytics, cookie-based consent management, and SSL; there are no proprietary AI or machine-learning components, and the company explicitly disclaims AI-generated review content.

The business model is affiliate-referral driven, with revenue earned when readers click through to casino operators and register or deposit; commission structures vary by operator (flat fee per registration, revenue share on player losses, or a hybrid). Secondary revenue comes from labelled sponsored content and third-party display advertising. All content is free to readers, the audience is the long tail of UK players seeking offshore casino options (including those self-excluded from UKGC-licensed platforms), and distribution is exclusively through the owned website. The company is privately held, headquartered in Nottingham, United Kingdom, governed by the laws of England and Wales, and operates as a remote-first team of 1–10 people with editorial operations, compliance checks, and final publishing decisions handled from the UK.

Revenue model

1. Affiliate Commissions: Primary revenue source. TechNottingham earns referral commissions when readers click casino links on the site and subsequently register an account or make a deposit. Commission structures vary by operator and may be calculated as a flat fee per registration, a percentage of the player's net losses over time (revenue share), or a combination of both. The company states these fees are the same regardless of casino ranking position.
2. Sponsored Content: Occasional commissioned content paid for by casino operators or related businesses. All sponsored content is clearly labelled with 'Sponsored' or 'Advertisement' notices and is subject to the same factual accuracy standards as editorial content.
3. Display Advertising: Third-party advertising displayed on some pages of the site. Advertising placements are managed separately from the editorial review process, and advertisers do not have access to editorial content or ratings.
