Affiliate Disclosure

Last updated: January 2026

happymanagers.org ("we", "us", "our") is an independent review and comparison website covering the best betting sites and online casinos available to Australian readers. This Affiliate Disclosure explains how we earn revenue and what that means for you.

1. We Earn Affiliate Commissions

happymanagers.org participates in affiliate marketing programs. When you click certain links on our website and subsequently register an account, make a deposit, or place a bet with an operator we feature, we may receive a commission from that operator at no additional cost to you. This is how we fund our research, testing, and content production.

2. Commissions Do Not Influence Our Reviews or Rankings

Our editorial integrity is not for sale. Commissions and commercial arrangements do not influence our rankings, ratings, review content, or recommendations. Operators cannot pay for a better score or a higher placement. Our reviews are based on our own assessment criteria, including licensing and security, odds and markets, payout speed, bonuses and terms, customer support, and user experience. Where an operator fails to meet our standards, we say so — regardless of any commercial relationship.

3. How to Identify Affiliate and Sponsored Links

We believe in full transparency about commercial content. You can identify affiliate or sponsored material on happymanagers.org in the following ways:

• Outbound links to betting operators and casinos may be affiliate links, even where not individually labelled on every occasion.
• Clearly sponsored placements or promoted offers are marked with labels such as "Sponsored", "Ad", or "Promoted".
• Comparison tables and "best of" lists may contain affiliate links; where relevant, this is indicated near the table or list.

4. Australian Regulatory Compliance

We endeavour to comply with applicable Australian laws and standards, including:

• The Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010), including requirements around misleading or deceptive conduct, as enforced by the ACCC;
• Guidance from the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) regarding online gambling advertising and prohibited interactive gambling services;
• The AANA Code of Ethics and the principle that advertising and commercial relationships must be clearly distinguishable;
• The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth) — we do not knowingly promote offshore wagering operators that are prohibited from offering services to Australians.

5. Your Responsibility as a Reader

Online gambling involves real financial risk, and it is your responsibility to gamble only what you can afford to lose. Before signing up with any operator featured on happymanagers.org, you should:

• Verify that the operator is licensed and legally permitted to accept players from your location in Australia;
• Read the operator's full terms and conditions, including wagering requirements and withdrawal rules;
• Confirm that you meet the legal gambling age (18+) in your state or territory;
• Seek independent advice if you are unsure whether an offer is right for you.

If gambling is affecting you or someone you know, free and confidential help is available 24/7 via Gambling Help Online (1800 858 858) or BetStop — the National Self-Exclusion Register.
