Affiliate Disclosure
Last Updated: January 2026
TopOnlineAustralianCasinos.com ("the Website", "we", "us", or "our") is an independent online casino review and comparison platform designed to help Australian players make informed decisions about online gambling.
Affiliate Relationships & How We Earn Money
We want to be completely transparent with our readers: this website earns affiliate commissions. When you click on certain links found throughout our site and subsequently register, deposit, or play at one of the online casinos we list, we may receive a commission or referral fee from that operator — at no additional cost to you.
These commissions help us maintain the website, conduct research, test casino platforms, and continue providing free, high-quality content to our Australian audience.
Our Editorial Integrity Promise
We firmly state and uphold the following commitment to our readers:
- Affiliate commissions do not influence our rankings, reviews, or editorial recommendations. Our team evaluates casinos based on objective criteria, including but not limited to game variety, software quality, payout speed, customer support responsiveness, security measures, mobile compatibility, and overall user experience.
- Casinos that offer us higher commissions or incentives do not receive preferential placement in our lists, top picks, or star ratings.
- Our writers and reviewers are not compensated based on the performance of the affiliate links they include in their content.
- Negative reviews or critical assessments are never altered or removed at the request of an affiliate partner.
- If we cannot verify a casino's credentials, licensing, or fair-play practices, we will not recommend it regardless of any commission offered.
How to Identify Affiliate & Sponsored Links
We believe in making it easy for you to recognise when a link may generate revenue for us. Throughout this website, you may encounter the following types of links:
- Affiliate Links: Outbound links to casino websites, sign-up pages, or promotional offers that may earn us a commission. These links are functionally identical to regular links — clicking them costs you nothing extra.
- Sponsored Placements: If an operator pays for prominent placement beyond standard affiliate arrangements, that placement will be clearly marked with a visible label such as "Sponsored", "Advertisement", or "Paid Placement".
- Promotional Banners & Widgets: Display advertisements or promotional blocks provided by casino operators are clearly identifiable as advertising material.
Unless explicitly labelled as "Sponsored" or "Paid", all casino recommendations, rankings, comparisons, and review scores on this website are produced through our independent editorial process.
Australian Compliance Statement

We strive to ensure that all content, including advertising and affiliate disclosures, meets the standards of transparency and honesty expected of publications operating within the Australian market. We do not promote, encourage, or link to unlicensed or illegal offshore gambling operators that are prohibited under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth).
