Strength for Sydney Editorial Desk: who writes and checks our guides

Who is the Strength for Sydney Editorial Desk?

The Strength for Sydney Editorial Desk is the team that researches, writes and checks the guides on this site. Every page is credited to the desk because each one is written and checked by more than one person, and the desk answers for everything it publishes.

How does the desk work?

The desk follows our editorial policy:

• Primary sources first. Facts about payments come from banks and payment providers, facts about games from the studios that make them, and help information from the official services.
• Dated facts. Every page shows the date its facts were last checked.
• No invented tests. Where we have not tested something ourselves, we say so and point to the source we used.
• Corrections. If you find a mistake, tell us through the contact page and we will check it against the source.

What does the desk cover?

The desk covers online pokies for Australian players: how pokies work, banking methods such as PayID and crypto, payout speed, bonus terms, popular pokies and the studios behind them, and the tools and services that help people stay in control. It does not provide gambling, legal, financial or tax advice.
