At Chemeca2016 (chemeca2016.org), we believe that every Australian player deserves honest, clear, and trustworthy information before choosing where to play. As part of that commitment, we are fully transparent about how this website operates financially. Please read this disclosure carefully before using any links or recommendations on this site.
Chemeca2016 participates in affiliate marketing programs with a number of online casino and pokies operators that accept Australian players. This means that when you click on certain links on our website and subsequently register an account or make a deposit with a casino or pokies platform, Chemeca2016 may receive a commission or referral fee from that operator at no additional cost to you.
These are known as affiliate links. They function exactly like standard links but are tracked by the operator so they can identify that you arrived via our website. The commission we receive helps fund the ongoing operation of Chemeca2016, including research, testing, and content creation.
No. Affiliate relationships do not influence our editorial content. James Wilson, the author and owner of Chemeca2016, maintains strict editorial independence. Every PayID pokies site reviewed on this platform is assessed on its own merits, regardless of whether an affiliate agreement exists with that operator.
We do not accept payment in exchange for positive reviews. We do not alter ratings or written assessments based on commission rates. If a site performs poorly in our testing, that finding will be published honestly, even if that site is an affiliate partner.
James Wilson evaluates every PayID pokies platform using a consistent, structured methodology developed through years of hands-on experience in the Australian online gaming market. Key criteria include:
Ratings are assigned based solely on this evaluation process. No operator can purchase a higher score or a featured placement in exchange for financial consideration.
This disclosure is published in accordance with the United States Federal Trade Commission (FTC) guidelines on endorsements and testimonials, as well as broader international transparency standards for affiliate marketing. While Chemeca2016 is focused on the Australian market, we adhere to globally recognised best practices to ensure our audience is always fully informed.
James Wilson is the founder, owner, and primary reviewer at Chemeca2016. He brings extensive knowledge of the Australian online pokies landscape, with a particular focus on PayID payment methods and fast-payout platforms. His goal is to provide Australian players with reliable, unbiased guidance so they can make informed decisions. James's reputation is built on accuracy and integrity — not on promoting the highest-paying affiliate deals.
