Our Editorial Policy

Updated Written for New Zealand players

This site publishes guides to online casino play for readers in New Zealand. This page sets out how that material is produced, so that a reader can judge it rather than take it on trust.

How pages are written

Pages are written and maintained by the site’s editorial team. We do not publish invented personal bylines, photographs or biographies, and we do not attribute work to experts who do not exist — a practice common enough in this industry to be worth stating plainly.

Each casino page is built from a fixed set of checks described on how we rate casinos. Guides to payments, bonuses, games and New Zealand law follow the same rule: a claim is either sourced or it is not published.

Sources and corrections

  • Bonus figures, wagering multipliers, limits and payment methods come from the operator’s own terms, and are re-read when those terms change.
  • Legal and regulatory statements come from New Zealand legislation and from the Department of Internal Affairs.
  • Payment details come from the provider — if a method has stopped working for New Zealand players, the page says so rather than quietly dropping it.
  • Where a figure cannot be sourced, the page leaves it out. We do not fill gaps with estimates.

Mistakes get corrected on the page, not argued about in a comment thread. Send the URL and what is wrong to the editor.

Advertising and independence

The money behind the site comes from commercial agreements between operators and its publisher, Azulane Media Group N.V.. Links that run through a /go/ address are those agreements at work; in the HTML they carry rel="sponsored". Depending on the deal, a reader who opens an account and deposits through one of them can earn the company a single fee for that new customer, an ongoing slice of whatever that account brings the operator once winnings are paid out, or some of each. The slice gets bigger as a referred player loses. That pulls against the reader’s interest, so it is named here instead of being left unsaid. Those agreements decide which brands appear on the site at all, and a line in each page’s footer says the links are commercial, and the affiliate disclosure sets out how that works. They do not buy a change to a recorded fact, a removal of an unfavourable term, or a fabricated rating. We also do not sell guest posts, links inside editorial text, or coverage presented as independent when it is paid for.
