About Lea Hartmann
Lea Hartmann studied psychology and specialised in behavioural economics before turning her passion for fair gambling into a career at Divabet Casino.
Her focus: understanding why bonus offers, VIP levels and reward systems work the way they do — and how players can use these mechanisms to their advantage instead of being led by them.
For her articles, she tests bonus offers and loyalty programs herself, works through wagering requirements with real numbers, and compares the results against psychological research on reward and decision-making.
Lea firmly believes entertainment and control aren't at odds — her articles are meant to empower players, not just entertain them.
Besides her own testing, Lea also reviews user feedback and forum discussions to understand which bonus traps players overlook most often in practice.
She works closely with the editorial team to make sure psychological insights are always used to inform players, never to manipulate them.
Background & Credentials
- Degree in Psychology with a focus on Behavioural Economics
- Practical experience analysing bonus and loyalty programs across multiple operators
- Ongoing training in responsible gambling and player protection
Once you understand why a bonus works, you stop being dazzled by it — and start deciding consciously.
