Editorial policy

Online Australian PayID Pokies is built around useful, commercially relevant guides rather than bulk SEO pages. We prefer improving an existing guide when a keyword does not have a distinct search intent, and we publish a new page only when readers genuinely need a separate answer.

Editorial standards apply to every published guide. Each page must answer the reader's question clearly in the first screen of content, support every factual claim with a source the reviewer has personally checked, and avoid generic claims that could apply to any operator. Marketing language from operator press releases is rewritten or removed; we do not republish promotional copy.

Sourcing favours primary evidence: the operator's own pages, current bonus terms, the regulator's licence register, official payment-method documentation, and game provider sites. Where secondary sources are used, the reviewer notes the source and date so a fact-checker can verify it independently. Claims that depend on a number — payout speed, RTP, bonus value, game count — must reference a primary source captured at review time.

Fact-checking is performed by a different person than the original reviewer. The fact-checker's role is to verify named claims, payment availability, licensing status, and any commercial terms quoted in the guide. A page does not get published until both the reviewer and the fact-checker sign off, and both names appear on the published page.

Conflicts of interest are disclosed at the site level: some outbound links to operators are commercially tracked, and the site may receive a referral fee on registrations or deposits. Editorial decisions about which operators to cover, how they are scored, and which products are recommended are made independently of those commercial terms. A brand cannot pay to be added to a guide, and an existing operator cannot pay to improve its score.

Corrections are handled openly. When a reader or internal review surfaces a factual error, the page is updated with the correct information, the change is reviewed by a fact-checker, and the page receives a new "last updated" date. We do not silently rewrite a published claim without an editorial review. Stale guides are refreshed in place rather than duplicated under a new URL.
