Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
iancoats.com is an independent review and comparison website focused on online pokies and casino sites available to Australian players. We believe in being fully transparent with our readers about how this website operates and how it earns revenue.
How iancoats.com Earns Money
iancoats.com earns affiliate commissions from some of the online casinos and gambling operators featured on this website. When you click on certain links on our site and subsequently register, deposit, or play at a partner casino, we may receive a commission from that operator. This comes at no additional cost to you — the prices, bonuses, and terms you receive are the same as (and in some cases better than) going directly to the operator's website.
These affiliate commissions are what allow us to keep iancoats.com free to use, and to invest in researching, testing, and reviewing casino sites for Australian players.
Our Editorial Independence
Affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, ratings, or reviews. Our reviews are based on our own research and assessment criteria, including game selection, pokies variety, licensing and security, payment methods, withdrawal speeds, customer support, and bonus fairness.
- Operators cannot pay for a higher ranking or a more favourable review.
- We do not remove or soften legitimate criticisms in exchange for commission.
- Where a casino does not meet our standards, we say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.
While we may consider commercial factors when deciding which operators to feature or how offers are displayed, the substance of every review reflects our honest editorial opinion.
How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links
We want you to know when a link may earn us a commission. On iancoats.com:
- Links to casino operators — including "Play Now", "Visit Casino", "Claim Bonus", and similar buttons — are typically affiliate links.
- Where content is sponsored or produced in partnership with an operator, it will be clearly labelled as "Sponsored", "Advertisement", or "Partner Content".
- Affiliate links may also be identified with an asterisk (*) or a note such as "affiliate link" where practical.
Australian Compliance
iancoats.com aims to comply with the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) and the guidance of the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) regarding online reviews, testimonials, and the disclosure of commercial relationships. We are committed to ensuring our content is not misleading or deceptive, and that material connections between iancoats.com and the operators we review are clearly disclosed.
Please note that online gambling in Australia is regulated under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth). It is your responsibility to ensure that any gambling service you access is legal for you to use in your location. iancoats.com provides information and reviews only and does not itself offer gambling services.
Your Responsibility as a Reader
- Verify before you play. Always read the full terms and conditions on the casino's own website before registering, depositing, or claiming any bonus. Offers and terms can change without notice.
- Check your local laws. You are responsible for confirming that online gambling is legal and appropriate for you in your jurisdiction.
- You must be 18 or older. Gambling is restricted to adults aged 18+ in Australia.
- Gamble responsibly. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. If gambling is causing you harm, free and confidential support is available via Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) and Gamblers Anonymous Australia.
- Do your own research. Our reviews reflect our opinions at the time of writing and should not be taken as financial or legal advice.
