Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
Welcome to michaelgeedrick.com (the "Site"). Transparency and honesty are core values of this casino pokies review website. Please read this Affiliate Disclosure carefully so you understand how this Site is funded and how it may affect the content you see.
1. Affiliate Commissions
michaelgeedrick.com participates in affiliate marketing programs with various online casino operators. This means that when you click on certain links on this Site and subsequently register an account, make a deposit, or take another qualifying action with a casino operator, we may receive a commission from that operator.
This commission comes at no additional cost to you. The price, bonuses, and terms you receive from the casino operator remain the same whether you visit them through our links or directly.
2. Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, ratings, or reviews. Our assessments of online casinos and pokies are based on genuine research, testing, and evaluation criteria, including (but not limited to) licensing, game selection, payout speeds, customer support, bonus fairness, and user experience.
Casino operators cannot pay for a higher ranking, a better review, or the removal of negative commentary. Where a casino fails to meet our standards, we say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.
3. How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We believe you should always know when a link may earn us a commission. On this Site:
- Links to casino operators, including buttons labelled "Play Now", "Visit Casino", "Claim Bonus", or similar calls to action, are typically affiliate links.
- Where content has been sponsored or paid for by a third party, it will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored", "Advertisement", or "Paid Content" at or near the top of the content.
- Affiliate links may use tracking parameters or redirect through third-party tracking domains before reaching the casino's website.
If you are ever unsure whether a link is an affiliate link, you may assume that outbound links to casino operators on this Site are monetised unless explicitly stated otherwise.
4. Australian Compliance Statement
This Site is directed at an Australian audience and aims to operate in accordance with applicable Australian standards, including:
- The Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), including the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) provisions administered by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), which prohibit misleading or deceptive conduct and require advertising and commercial relationships to be clearly identifiable.
- The AANA Code of Ethics and the AANA's distinguishable advertising guidelines, which require that advertising and affiliate relationships be transparent to consumers.
- The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth). Please note that this Site is an informational and review resource only — we do not operate, offer, or facilitate any gambling services ourselves.
This disclosure is provided in good faith to ensure our commercial relationships are clearly distinguishable to all readers.
5. Reader Responsibility
By using this Site, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You are solely responsible for verifying the legality of online gambling in your jurisdiction before engaging with any casino operator. It is your responsibility to ensure you comply with the laws applicable to you.
- You must be 18 years of age or older to gamble in Australia. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
- All information on this Site, including bonuses, odds, and offers, is provided in good faith but may change without notice. Always read the full terms and conditions on the casino operator's own website before registering or depositing.
- Gambling involves risk. If you or someone you know is experiencing gambling-related harm, free and confidential support is available via Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) or at gamblinghelponline.org.au.
