Our Affiliate Relationships
The Pickups Band (thepickupsband.co.nz) is an affiliate website that earns commissions when you click on casino links and sign up for accounts through our site. These affiliate relationships are with various online casino operators and affiliate networks.
How We Earn Money
When you click on a casino link or promotional offer on our website and complete a sign-up or deposit, we may receive a commission from that casino operator. This is how we generate revenue to maintain and improve our review service. You will not pay any additional fees or charges as a result of using our affiliate links.
Editorial Independence
Important: Our affiliate commissions do not influence our editorial rankings, reviews, or recommendations. Our casino reviews and ratings are based on independent analysis including game variety, licensing, security, customer support, and user experience. We maintain strict editorial standards to ensure our content remains objective and trustworthy, regardless of commission potential.
Identifying Affiliate Links
Affiliate and sponsored links on our site are clearly marked with labels such as:
- "Affiliate Link"
- "Sponsored"
- "Promoted"
- A disclosure icon or banner near the link
Regulatory Compliance
This disclosure complies with the advertising standards set by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) and relevant New Zealand Consumer Law requirements. We are committed to transparent and honest advertising practices.
Your Responsibility
We encourage you to make informed decisions when selecting an online casino. While we provide research and reviews, we recommend you:
- Verify a casino's NZ gambling licence independently
- Read the casino's terms and conditions before signing up
- Gamble only what you can afford to lose
- Seek help from Problem Gambling Foundation NZ if needed
