Who writes the checks, and by what rules
Pages are written by the editorial team from primary sources, in a fixed order: the ACMA register and the law first, the operator's own pages second, secondary articles last. Advertising is kept apart from editorial text. No one pays for a position or a result. A factual error is corrected within 2 working days.
Sources and their order
When sources disagree, the higher one decides.
- The ACMA register, ABN Lookup, and the text of laws on legislation.gov.au and aph.gov.au.
- Releases and pages from ACMA, BetStop, Gambling Help Online and the state and territory authorities.
- The operator's own pages and the app stores.
- Secondary articles, used only to find a primary source, and named as secondary.
Assistants and list sites are quoted only as the subject of a check, in under 15 words. Where sources disagree, we show both dates, as in the Royal Assent note.
Where this stands: the law and the register outrank every marketing page.
Advertising and editorial
Payment does not change who is listed, how a check is read or the order of results.
Order is alphabetical. We take no fee for a position, a score or a mention, and we publish no reviews from players. Paid content, if any, is labelled Advertisement and is described on the advertising disclosure.
We do not use athletes, celebrities or influencers, and we do not publish promotional codes.
Where this stands: advertising and editorial are separate, and ads are labelled.
How we use AI tools
AI tools help prepare drafts of text. A draft is not a source.
Every fact must have a source address, a short quote and a date in the fact log before it is published, as set out in how we source data. Review by a person: [review process: to be confirmed by the owner].
No page is published with a claim that we cannot trace to a source.
Where this stands: AI helps with drafting, and the sources decide what is stated.
Corrections and conflicts of interest
A reported factual error is checked and, if confirmed, corrected within 2 working days. The change is dated in the changelog. See Report an error.
On conflicts: the owner's other interests, if any, are to be disclosed on the About page once supplied. Policy dated 2026-11-13. Method: how we check bookmakers and the twelve checks.
