Cathelicopters

What Cathelicopters does

Cathelicopters operates the CasinoRadar.es brand, an independent Spanish-language online casino review and analysis platform headquartered in Madrid, Spain. Founded in 2020, the platform curates and ranks international online casino operators that are accessible to Spanish players but not licensed by Spain's DGOJ (Dirección General de Ordenación del Juego). The site covers 10 ranked operators — including BetAlice, Betlabel, MonsterWin, Spinaura, HolyLuck, Glorion, Mafia Casino, VipLuck, Binobet, and Kingmaker — with detailed comparative tables covering licensing jurisdictions (Curaçao, Costa Rica, Anjouan), bonus structures, KYC requirements, payment methods (including crypto and e-wallets), and game catalogs. The content library spans 240+ casino reviews and 60+ expert articles, all in Spanish, optimized for organic search queries related to unlicensed casino platforms.

CasinoRadar.es does not operate gambling services or accept bets. The company monetizes through affiliate/referral commissions earned when users click through to listed casino operators and subsequently register or deposit, supplemented by display and banner advertising from operators and iGaming-adjacent brands. The go-to-market motion is product-led growth via SEO and content marketing, serving as a top-of-funnel intermediary between unlicensed international casino operators and Spanish-speaking players seeking alternatives to DGOJ-licensed platforms. The editorial team is led by Editor-in-Chief Marcos Ruiz Castellano, a journalist with 9+ years in the iGaming sector, and the company has 6 employees. There is no proprietary technology platform, no app, no disclosed API, and no AI capabilities. The platform competes against Spanish-language iGaming media outlets and similar affiliate intermediaries in the niche of non-DGOJ casino coverage.
