Editorial standards at Wild Panda

How the Wild Panda desk works: what we cover, where our figures come from, what the affiliate links mean, and how to get an error fixed.

What we write about

This site covers online casino play for Australian readers, and Wild Panda is the operator we look at most closely. Our pages deal with the practical things a player actually meets: what a bonus is worth once its wagering conditions are applied, which payment methods the cashier takes, how long a withdrawal tends to sit before it lands, and what the pokies catalogue looks like in terms of providers and titles. We do not cover sports betting, lotteries or anything outside casino play. Where a term is used loosely elsewhere — "fast payout", "low wagering" — we try to say what the number is and what it is attached to.

Where our numbers come from

Figures on this site come from the operator's own published terms: the bonus conditions, the cashier page, the withdrawal policy and the game lobby. Wagering requirements, maximum bet rules, expiry windows and processing times are read from those documents rather than repeated from other affiliate sites. Where a term is ambiguous, we say so rather than resolve it in the operator's favour. We do not present a number as tested when it has only been read, and we do not carry a figure over from an older version of a page without checking it against the current one. If a term changes, the page is corrected.

How a casino earns a place on this site

A casino appears here because we have decided it is worth writing about for Australian players, not because it asked. We look at whether the terms are legible, whether the cashier covers the methods people here actually use, whether withdrawal times are stated plainly, and whether the pokies catalogue has enough depth to be worth a visit. The cashier at Wild Panda accepts VISA, MasterCard and crypto — USDT, BTC, LTC, ETH, DOGE and TRX. It does not accept PayID, POLi, Neosurf or BPAY, and we treat that as a real limitation rather than a footnote.

Who pays for this site

The site is funded by affiliate commission. When a reader follows a link from here to a casino and signs up, the operator may pay us. That is the whole of our revenue, and it is why the links exist. It does not buy a place on the site, a better description, or silence about a term we think is poor. A casino cannot pay to have a weakness left out, and we do not accept payment for a review. Where a commercial relationship exists, it is the same relationship on every page, so there is nothing hidden in an individual review that a reader needs to know about separately.

How to tell us we are wrong

If a wagering figure is out of date, a payment method has changed, or a withdrawal time no longer matches what the cashier states, write to the reviews desk and say which page and which line. We will check it against the operator's current terms and correct the page if you are right. Corrections are made to the page itself rather than noted somewhere else, so the version you read next is the corrected one. We would rather be told than be quietly wrong, and a specific complaint about a specific number is the most useful kind.
