Affiliate Disclosure
Last Updated: 2026
Our Relationship with Online Casinos
Chew the Cud (chewthecud.co.nz) is an affiliate marketing website. When you click on links to online casinos featured in our reviews and guides, we may earn affiliate commissions at no additional cost to you. These commissions are how we fund our website and continue to provide free, independent content about LeoVegas and other online pokies platforms in New Zealand.
Commissions Do Not Influence Our Reviews
We want to be absolutely clear: receiving affiliate commissions does not influence our editorial rankings, casino ratings, or review content. Our reviews are based on independent research, testing, player experience, game variety, security features, and overall quality. We maintain editorial integrity regardless of affiliate relationships.
How to Identify Affiliate Links
Affiliate links on our site are clearly identified using one or more of the following methods:
- Links marked with an "Affiliate Link" label or icon
- Text clearly stating "Visit Site" or "Claim Bonus" in promotional sections
- Disclosure notices near casino recommendation boxes or call-to-action buttons
Compliance & Regulatory Statement
This affiliate disclosure complies with the Consumer Protection Act 1987 and guidelines set by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) in New Zealand. We believe in transparent advertising practices and honest representation of our commercial relationships.
Your Responsibility
We encourage all readers to:
- Review casino terms and conditions independently
- Gamble responsibly and within your means
- Use resources like Gambling Helpline Aotearoa (0800 654 655) if needed
- Verify all bonus terms before claiming offers
- Make your own informed decisions about which casinos suit your needs
