Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
How crocfestival.org.au Earns Revenue
crocfestival.org.au is an affiliate website. This means that when you click on certain links on our site — including links to online casinos, pokies venues, and gaming operators — and subsequently register an account, make a deposit, or take another qualifying action, we may receive a commission from that operator. This comes at no additional cost to you.
These affiliate commissions are how we fund the operation of this website, including researching and reviewing casinos and pokies venues, maintaining our "pokies open near me now" listings, and keeping our content up to date for Australian players.
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, ratings, or reviews. Our assessments of casinos and pokies venues are based on our own research, testing criteria, and honest evaluation. Operators cannot pay for a higher ranking, a better review, or the removal of legitimate criticism. Where we identify shortcomings with an operator, we say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.
How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We believe in transparency about our commercial relationships. You can identify affiliate content on crocfestival.org.au in the following ways:
- Links to casino and gaming operators that earn us a commission may be marked with an asterisk (*), the label "affiliate link", or similar wording.
- Sponsored placements or paid promotional content will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored", "Advertisement", or "Paid Promotion".
- Where a page contains affiliate links, a disclosure notice will appear on or near the top of that page.
Australian Compliance Statement
crocfestival.org.au operates in accordance with Australian Consumer Law as enforced by the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), which requires that commercial relationships and paid content be clearly disclosed to consumers. We also endeavour to align with the guidance of the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) regarding the promotion of gambling services.
We note that online casino gaming is restricted under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth), and we encourage Australian readers to be aware of the laws that apply in their state or territory before engaging with any gambling operator. This website is intended for readers aged 18 and over.
