At Thesaltations, we believe that honesty is the foundation of every trustworthy review website. This page exists to give you a complete and clear picture of how this site operates financially, so you can read every review and recommendation with full confidence and context.
Please read this disclosure carefully before using any links or acting on any recommendations found on thesaltations.com.
Some of the links published on Thesaltations are affiliate links. This means that when you click on a link pointing to an online casino or pokie operator and subsequently register an account or make a deposit, Thesaltations may receive a commission or referral fee from that operator at no additional cost to you.
Affiliate programs are a standard and widely used practice across online publishing. They allow independent websites like Thesaltations to fund ongoing research, testing, and content production without charging readers directly.
No. The existence of affiliate relationships does not influence the content, ratings, or conclusions of any review published on Thesaltations.
James Wilson, the owner and primary reviewer behind Thesaltations, maintains strict editorial independence. Casinos are evaluated based on objective criteria regardless of whether a commercial relationship exists. If an operator performs poorly during testing, that finding is reported honestly — even if it means a lower rating for a paying partner.
Thesaltations has turned down partnership offers from operators that did not meet our minimum quality standards. A commission opportunity will never override the obligation to provide Australian players with accurate, reliable information.
Every pokie and casino review on Thesaltations is produced using a structured, repeatable process developed by James Wilson. Key evaluation areas include:
