poppd.co is an information site for adult readers in Canada. It is not a casino, it does not take bets, and it does not hold player funds. Everything here is written for people who want to understand how gambling products work before they spend money on them.
Who writes this site?
My name is Camille Fontaine. I write the pages on poppd.co, and you can find my author page at /author/camillefontaine/.
Before this site, I worked as a hotel-loyalty-program analyst in Montreal. My job was mapping tier thresholds for Air Canada and Marriott, working out point redemption values, and tracking status decay calendars. That work taught me how loyalty programs are built: where the thresholds sit, what a point is actually worth, and when a status quietly expires if you stop earning.
Casino loyalty programs run on the same machinery. Tiers, point values, expiry rules, and the gap between what a program advertises and what its terms say. I moved from airline and hotel programs to casino programs because the documents are similar and the mistakes readers make are the same.
What does this site cover?
I write about four things:
- Casino loyalty programs and how their tiers are structured
- VIP tier math, including what you have to wager or deposit to reach a level and what you get back
- Progressive jackpots, how the meters work and how the money is funded
- Deposit methods, mainly Interac compared with crypto, and what each one costs you in fees and time
I do not review slot themes, I do not rank casinos by bonus size, and I do not tell you which operator to join. If a page compares two deposit methods, it compares the mechanics, not the marketing.
How do I check what I publish?
I work from primary documents. For loyalty programs, I read the operator’s own published loyalty terms and take tier thresholds and point values directly from those documents rather than from a summary or a forum post. For jackpots, I use the live meter or the provider’s own disclosure of how the prize is funded and paid. When a claim cannot be traced to a document or a meter, I leave it out. If a term changes, the page changes with it. You can read how this works in full on the editorial policy page.
What does this site keep about me?
The site loads no analytics scripts, no advertising scripts, and no third-party scripts. Nothing tracks you across other sites from here.
If you leave a comment, the WordPress comment form collects your name, your email address, an optional website, your comment text, your IP address, and your browser user agent. A cookie may remember your details so you do not have to retype them next time. The web host also keeps standard server logs. The privacy policy sets out the details.
How do I reach the writer?
There is no published email address. The way to reach me is the comment form on any post. Comments are open to readers, and I read them. If you think a tier threshold or a point value on a page is wrong, say so in a comment and point me to the term you are reading. That is the fastest route to a correction.
Some links on this site go to operators, and some of those links may earn a commission. That does not change what I write or which documents I check. The affiliate disclosure explains it.
