Affiliate Disclosure

Online Casinos is free for all visitors. You don’t pay a cent to browse our site, read our content, or use our comparison tools. So, how do we keep the site running?

It’s all thanks to partnerships with online casino sites and other legal gaming sites. These casinos pay us a commission through the affiliate program when you click through to their site and sign up or make a deposit.

We use affiliate program links to make this happen. These are special links that track when someone clicks on them and heads over to a partner’s casino. If you decide to sign up and deposit, we earn a small commission from that casino.

But, and this is really important, you won’t pay anything extra. The casino pays us a fee for sending players their way, so your experience remains unchanged.

While our partners pay us, they have no say in what we write, the opinions we share, or the reviews we publish. Our goal is to provide helpful, accurate, and unbiased information, no matter who we’re working with.

We want to be 100% clear on this: our affiliate programs do not influence the content we publish. Whether you’re reading a casino review, a blog post, or a news article, everything is written based on thorough research and honest opinion. Our writers and editors focus on giving you the facts to help you make informed decisions when choosing an online casino.

While we may recommend casinos we partner with, those recommendations are always based on what we genuinely believe is the best choice for you. We do not let financial arrangements affect the advice or recommendations we provide. For us, your trust is far more valuable than any affiliate commission we earn.

So, when we talk about the pros and cons of a casino, we mean it. If we say a casino has a great selection of games or excellent customer service, that’s because we’ve done our homework, not because we’ve been paid to say it. We aim to give you the most reliable and accurate information possible so that you can gamble responsibly and safely.

We work with a variety of affiliate programs, and the types of partnerships we have might vary depending on the casino. However, these partnerships generally fall into a few different categories:

Sponsored Listings

Some casinos pay for what we call “sponsored listings.” These are spots on our site where a casino gets featured more prominently. If a casino pays for one of these spots, we’ll let you know.

Sponsored listings don’t affect the reviews we write about those casinos. We still give our honest opinions, even if a casino has paid for extra visibility.

Comparison Lists

We also create comparison lists that feature casinos based on specific categories, such as best casino bonuses or top PayID casinos. Some of the casinos on these lists are our affiliate partners, but the order or ranking is based on our research.

We tailor these lists to your preferences, showing casinos that match your previous searches or the features you’re looking for. But don’t worry. We still provide unbiased information on each option.

Performance-Based Agreements

Sometimes, we earn money based on how well our affiliate programs perform. This means that we might get paid more if a lot of people sign up for a particular casino.

However, this doesn’t mean we push certain casinos over others. All casinos we work with are chosen for their quality, not for how much they pay us.

Now, you might be wondering if these affiliate links impact the articles, reviews, and other content we publish. The simple answer is no. Our team writes all content independently, without any input from our partners. Whether you click an affiliate link or not, it won’t change the facts we provide.

For example, if you’re reading one of our casino reviews, the pros and cons listed in that review are based on actual research and experience. We don’t hold back from criticising a casino if it has high withdrawal fees or slow customer service, even if it’s one of our affiliate program partners. We believe in transparency, so if we think a casino has room for improvement, we’ll tell you.

The affiliate links allow us to make money while keeping the content free for you. But they don’t shape the information we share or our commitment to user feedback. Our goal is always to help you find the best casino for your needs without any outside pressure.

We try to keep things simple and non-intrusive when it comes to advertising. You’ll see ads and affiliate links scattered throughout our site, but we always aim to place them in a way that doesn’t interrupt your experience. The ads are clearly labelled, and the affiliate links are there to give you an easy way to check out the casinos we’ve reviewed or compared.

We place ads strategically on our pages, but they won’t overwhelm you. We’re here to provide useful content, and we don’t want ads getting in the way of that. If you see an ad, it’s because we think it might be relevant to what you’re looking for, not because we’re trying to flood you with promotions.

It’s important to understand that using our site won’t cost you anything. Clicking an affiliate link or signing up to a casino doesn’t affect your experience at all, other than potentially getting you some great bonuses or rewards! The casinos we partner with pay us directly, so you don’t have to worry about paying extra.

In fact, sometimes, our affiliate relationships work in your favour. Many of our partner casinos offer exclusive offers to players who sign up through Online Casinos. These might include special welcome bonuses, free spins, or deposit matches that aren’t available elsewhere.

So, if you’re thinking about signing up for one of the casinos we recommend, it’s worth clicking through our affiliate program links to see if there’s an extra reward waiting for you.

Our commitment to honesty and transparency is at the heart of everything we do at Online Casinos. When we review an online casino or any gambling platform, we approach it with the same standards we’d expect if we were the player making the choice. That means no sugar-coating, no hidden agendas, and no paid bias.

Every review published on our site is the result of thorough testing, research, and user feedback. Our team plays the games, explores the bonus terms, checks customer service responsiveness, and evaluates payment speed, all so you can get the real picture before signing up.

If a casino excels, we’ll highlight it. If it has drawbacks, we’ll be upfront. And if a platform doesn’t meet our quality expectations, we’ll let you know—and we won’t recommend it, no matter what commission is offered.

We believe that trust is earned, and our reviews are written with this in mind. We don’t allow advertisers to influence our scoring or editorial stance. In fact, our review process is completely independent of our affiliate relationships. Whether a casino is an affiliate partner or not, our evaluation is based solely on its performance and your potential user experience.

Our content team updates reviews regularly to reflect any changes in casino policies, bonus offers, or player feedback. If a site improves its service, we’ll mention that. If it drops the ball, we’ll call it out.

This ensures that you’re always working with the most current and accurate information available.

We don’t partner with just any online casino. Every platform featured on Online Casinos has been handpicked based on a strict set of criteria that ensures quality, safety, and fairness for Aussie players.

Before we recommend a casino, we run it through a detailed vetting process. This includes checking for a valid gaming licence from a recognised authority, solid encryption for player data, fair game mechanics (with proven RNGs), and a history of timely payments.

But we don’t stop there.

We also assess:

• Customer support responsiveness — 24/7 live chat and friendly, helpful service earn top marks.
• Local-friendly features — We favour casinos that accept AUD, offer PayID or POLi, and tailor promotions for Australian players.
• Responsible gambling tools — Casinos must provide time limits, deposit caps, and self-exclusion options.
• User experience — A smooth, mobile-friendly interface with fast load times is a must.

Only after passing all these checks will a casino be considered for inclusion on our site. And even then, we continue monitoring them long-term to make sure they maintain high standards.

If a casino starts to receive consistent complaints or shows signs of poor practice, we will either update its rating or remove it from our listings altogether. Your safety and satisfaction always come first.

Online Casinos maintains affiliate partnerships to support our operations, but these relationships never influence our reviews, rankings, or recommendations. We’re committed to providing honest, independent, and responsible content to help you make informed choices. Always play responsibly, and reach out if you ever need support or have questions about how we operate.
