Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
Welcome to aea2023.com. We believe in full transparency with our readers, so this page explains how our website is funded and how that may relate to the content you see here.
1. We Earn Affiliate Commissions
aea2023.com is an affiliate website focused on PayID pokies and online casino reviews for Australian players. When you click on certain links on our site and subsequently register, deposit, or play at one of the casinos we feature, we may receive a commission from that casino operator. This comes at no additional cost to you — the commission is paid by the operator as a marketing fee.
These affiliate commissions are how we fund the operation of this website, including research, testing, content creation, and site maintenance.
2. Commissions Do Not Influence Our Reviews or Rankings
Our editorial independence is not for sale. While we earn commissions from some of the casinos listed on this site:
- Our rankings, ratings, and reviews are based on our own assessment criteria, including game selection, PayID deposit and withdrawal speed, licensing, security, bonuses, and customer support.
- Casino operators cannot pay to receive a higher rating, a better ranking position, or a favourable review.
- If a casino performs poorly in our testing, we will say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.
- Commercial agreements may affect which operators we choose to feature, but never the honesty of our evaluations.
3. How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
You can identify affiliate links on aea2023.com in the following ways:
- Buttons and links labelled "Play Now", "Claim Bonus", "Visit Casino", or similar calls to action are typically affiliate links.
- Where practicable, affiliate or sponsored placements are marked with labels such as "Ad", "Sponsored", or "Partner Offer".
- Links within our "Top Casino" lists, comparison tables, and bonus roundups should generally be assumed to be affiliate links.
If you are ever unsure whether a link is an affiliate link, please assume that it is.
4. Australian Compliance Statement
aea2023.com is committed to complying with the Australian Consumer Law (ACL), as enforced by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC). This includes the requirement that advertising and promotional content be clearly identifiable and not misleading or deceptive. We disclose our commercial relationships prominently so that you can make informed decisions about the content you read and the links you click.
We also remind readers that online gambling services offered to Australians are regulated under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth), overseen by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA). We encourage you to verify the legal status of any operator before playing.
5. Reader Responsibility
The information on this website is provided for general informational and entertainment purposes only and does not constitute financial, legal, or professional advice. By using this site, you acknowledge and agree that:
- You are responsible for ensuring that online gambling is legal in your jurisdiction and that you meet the minimum age requirement (18+ in Australia).
- You gamble at your own risk, and you should never wager more than you can afford to lose.
- Bonus offers, terms, and conditions are set by the casino operators and may change without notice — always read the full terms on the operator's website before depositing.
- If gambling is causing you harm, free and confidential support is available via Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) or by calling the National Gambling Helpline.
