Affiliate Disclosure
Last updated: January 2026
Transparency is fundamental to our service at simplehost.co.nz. This Affiliate Disclosure outlines our commercial relationships and explains how we generate revenue while providing independent guides and reviews of mobile gambling sites for players in New Zealand.
Commercial Relationships and Affiliate Commissions
simplehost.co.nz operates as a commercial comparison and review website. When you click on links pointing to third-party mobile casino operators on our site and subsequently register an account or make a deposit, we may receive an affiliate commission from that operator. This process comes at no extra cost to you.
Editorial Independence and Review Integrity
While we earn affiliate revenue, our commercial partnerships do not influence our editorial standards, rankings, ratings, or recommendations. Our evaluation of mobile gambling platforms relies strictly on objective criteria, including licensing, security protocols, game variety, mobile responsiveness, payment methods, and payout speeds. We retain complete editorial control, and operators cannot pay to buy a positive review, alter an assessment, or guarantee a specific position on our site.
How to Identify Commercial Links
Most external links directing you to online casino operators, promotional offers, or sign-up pages are affiliate tracking links. You can identify these through:
- Call-to-action buttons such as "Play Now", "Visit Casino", "Claim Bonus", or "Sign Up".
- Direct hyperlinks integrated into our operator review summary cards and comparison tables.
- Contextual labels or disclaimers positioned adjacent to prominent ranking tables and promotional offers.
Regulatory Compliance and Advertising Standards
simplehost.co.nz is committed to responsible advertising and clear commercial identification. In New Zealand, we adhere to the principles set out by the Advertising Standards Authority (ASA) of New Zealand, specifically the Advertising Standards Code and Guidance Note on Identification of Advertising. Our disclosures are designed to ensure that readers are fully informed of commercial intent prior to engaging with third-party operators.
Reader Responsibility and Responsible Gambling
It is your sole responsibility to ensure that you meet all legal requirements to gamble online. In New Zealand, you must be 18 years or older to participate in online gambling (or 20 years or older for land-based casinos). Before creating an account or depositing funds, always review the terms, conditions, and licensing status of the respective mobile casino platform.
Gambling involves financial risk and must be treated solely as entertainment, not a source of income. If you or someone you know is experiencing gambling-related harm, free and confidential support is available in New Zealand:
