Pokies Ledger covers one narrow subject: what happens to an Australian player's money at an offshore pokies site, from the deposit screen through to the bank statement. Game reviews and strategy content are widely available elsewhere and are not the point here.
Every operator listed is licensed outside Australia, because no operator can be licensed inside it for this product. That fact shapes everything on the site and is stated on every page rather than buried.
Accounts are opened and funded personally. No account, balance or bonus is supplied by an operator, and no operator sees a review before it is published.
For each site the record covers the deposit method and amount, how quickly the balance cleared, the wagering terms as published, what documents were requested and at what point, and how long a withdrawal took to arrive. Where the published terms and the observed behaviour disagreed, the disagreement is in the text.
Pokies Ledger earns a commission when a reader opens an account through a link here, and that commission sets the order of the list. This is stated under every ranking rather than in the footer alone.
It does not set the recorded figures. Deposit floors, wagering multiples, verification triggers and payout times come from the tests, and an operator that performs badly stays on the page with the reason attached rather than being quietly removed.
