Madd Air (madd-air.com) is a free, independent review site covering Ripper Casino and other online gambling operators for Australian players. To keep the lights on and the content free, we earn a commission when you click certain links on our site and go on to register or play at a recommended casino. This arrangement never costs you a single cent extra — the prices, bonus terms, and deposit amounts you see at any casino are identical whether you arrive through madd-air.com or type the address directly into your browser.
What Affiliate Links Are
An affiliate link is a specially tracked URL. When you click one on madd-air.com, a small anonymous token tells the casino's system that the visit originated from us. If you then create an account or make a deposit, the casino pays us a referral fee from their own marketing budget. Think of it as the online equivalent of a friend recommending a restaurant and the restaurant quietly thanking that friend later — you still pay the same price for your meal.
How We Earn
The table below breaks down the most common scenarios so there are no surprises.
| Action You Take | Who Pays the Commission | Cost to You |
|---|---|---|
| You click a review or "Visit Casino" link on madd-air.com | No commission at this stage | None — AUD $0 |
| You register a new player account at a recommended casino | The casino operator pays Madd Air | None — AUD $0 |
| You make a real-money deposit and play | The casino operator pays Madd Air a revenue share or flat fee | None — AUD $0 |
| You visit a casino directly (not through our link) | No commission earned by Madd Air | None — AUD $0 |
How This Affects Our Reviews
Short answer: it does not. Rankings and review scores on madd-air.com are not for sale. We do not accept payment from operators in exchange for a positive review, a higher ranking, or a "recommended" badge. Casinos that score poorly on our criteria are reviewed honestly, regardless of the commission rate they offer affiliates. If a casino has slow withdrawals, weak support, or unclear bonus terms, we say so plainly. Our long-term credibility with Australian players matters far more to us than any short-term commission.
Our Review Methodology
Every casino covered on madd-air.com is assessed against the same checklist before any recommendation is made:
- Licensing & Security — valid regulatory licence, SSL encryption, and responsible gambling tools
- Bonus Terms — wagering requirements, maximum bet rules, time limits, and overall fairness
- Games & Software — pokies range, table games, live dealer options, and software provider quality
- Banking — AUD-friendly deposit and withdrawal methods, processing times, and fee structures
- Customer Support — availability, response times, and quality of help across live chat, email, and phone
