Affiliate Commissions

waikerifest.co.nz earns affiliate commissions when you click on casino links and subsequently sign up or play at those online pokies platforms. These commissions are paid by the casino operators and are a standard part of how we fund the continued operation and improvement of our website.

Editorial Independence

We want to be absolutely clear: our affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, reviews, or recommendations. Our reviews are based on thorough testing, user experience, game variety, security standards, licensing, and player value. Casinos do not pay us for higher ratings or featured placement in our content.

Identifying Affiliate and Sponsored Links

Affiliate links on our site are clearly identified with an "Affiliate Link" label or tag near the casino name or "Play Now" button. We also use descriptive text indicating the nature of these links throughout our content.

Your Responsibility

We encourage all readers to conduct their own research and due diligence before signing up with any online casino. Gambling involves risk. Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose. If you have concerns about problem gambling, contact Gamblers Anonymous Aotearoa or visit www.gambleaware.co.nz.
