Affiliate Disclosure
Last Updated: 2026
Our Affiliate Relationship
Xocolatl.co.nz earns affiliate commissions when you click through our links and sign up with the casinos we review. This means we receive a financial benefit when you use our referral links to register with featured casino operators.
Commissions Do Not Influence Our Reviews
Our editorial rankings, ratings, and casino reviews are based solely on our independent assessment of each operator's quality, safety, game selection, customer service, and value. We do not rank casinos higher or lower based on affiliate commission rates. We maintain editorial integrity by separating our review process from our monetisation strategy.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
Affiliate and sponsored links on xocolatl.co.nz are clearly marked with:
- An "Affiliate Link" label or badge
- Contextual disclosure language indicating the link is a referral
- Special styling or visual indicators
You can always navigate directly to casino websites without using our links to avoid any affiliate arrangement.
Compliance Statement (New Zealand)
This disclosure complies with the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) Code for Advertising, Direct Marketing and Selling and Fair Trading Act 1986 requirements for transparent advertising practices in New Zealand. We are committed to honest representation of our affiliate relationships.
Your Responsibility
We encourage you to:
- Review our disclaimer and terms of use before signing up with any casino
- Gamble responsibly and within your means
- Verify each casino's licensing and regulatory status independently
- Contact us with any concerns about affiliate disclosure or editorial integrity
