Mulenga Chanda
Mulenga Chanda is a writer at NewCasinoRank and the team's voice for Zambia. He grew up in Ndola, studied English literature at the University of Zambia in Lusaka, where he lives, and adapts our reviews and guides for Zambian readers.
He pays particular attention to how money moves: whether Airtel Money or MTN Mobile Money is accepted for deposits, whether the same wallet can receive a payout, and what a welcome offer costs in kwacha once wagering is counted. Outside work he hikes, drums and spends time at local markets.

How Mulenga works
How Mulenga writes about a new casino
Mulenga starts with the cashier. He compares the deposit list with the withdrawal list and flags any casino that takes mobile money in but pays out only to e-wallets or crypto, because that gap is where players in Zambia most often get stuck.
He then prices the welcome offer in kwacha, checks the licence on the regulator's register where one exists, and marks any fact the casino does not state instead of guessing it.
A long deposit list means little if the withdrawal list is short. Readers should see the way out before they put money in.
What they check
- Deposit and withdrawal methods compared
- Mobile money on both sides, or only one
- Bonus wagering priced in kwacha
- Licence number against the regulator's register
Questions for Mulenga
Why do you check withdrawals before deposits?
Many casinos accept Airtel Money or MTN on the way in but pay out only to an e-wallet, a card or crypto. Knowing that first lets you set up the right account before you deposit.
Why price bonuses in kwacha?
Because that is what you deposit and lose. K 35,000 of wagering on a K 1,000 bonus is easier to judge than 35x.
Do you test every casino yourself?
No. Reviews are built from what each casino states and the checks we can repeat, such as licence registers. Where a fact is missing, the page says so.
