Ryan Walsh, US Market Editor
Ryan Walsh leads landing.space's US coverage from Philadelphia, and the US section is built around one kind of offer: the no deposit bonus. His beat is the gap between the headline and the cashout: what a free chip or a batch of free spins is worth once the wagering requirement, the max cashout and the ID check have had their say, and how the rules differ between the seven states that license online casinos and the offshore sites that market to everyone else.
Author Credentials
Years of reading casino bonus terms line by line and turning them into dollars: wagering multiples, game contribution, bet limits, caps and deposit-before-withdrawal clauses. Working knowledge of how Pennsylvania and Michigan require bonus terms to be written and filed, and of what state regulators say about offshore sites. Ryan works with our research team on the simulations behind every US page.
How I Write
I answer the question in the first sentence, then show the arithmetic. If a number comes from our simulation, the page says so and explains the method. I never call an offer risk-free, I do not list a code I did not find at the source, and every page says what we did not check. On legal questions I state the status and point readers to their own state's rules.
