Editorial standards at Geisha

The reviews desk covers online casino play for Australian readers, and Geisha is one of the operators we look at. That means the bonus terms and their wagering, the cashier and what it will and will not take, withdrawal times as players actually report them, and the pokies catalogue. We write about the parts a player meets on the first evening and the parts that only matter three weeks later, when a withdrawal is pending. We do not write about the operator's history as a story, and we do not pad a page with features nobody uses.

A number goes in only when we can point to where it came from. Wagering multiples, maximum bet rules, withdrawal caps and processing times are read off the operator's own terms, then read again, because the same figure often appears in two places and disagrees. Where a figure is a range rather than a fixed value, we print the range and say so. Where the terms are silent, we say the terms are silent rather than filling the gap with a guess. Anything we cannot source stays out of the page.

Before a casino is recommended, we confirm that the cashier takes VISA, MasterCard and crypto — USDT, BTC, LTC, ETH, DOGE and TRX — and we note plainly that PayID, POLi, Neosurf and BPAY are not accepted. We check that the bonus terms are readable before deposit, that the pokies catalogue is reachable without an account, and that support answers a straightforward question about a pending withdrawal. A casino that fails any of these is not recommended here, whatever else it does well.

Some links on this site carry a referral. If a reader follows one and signs up, the site may receive a payment from the operator. That payment does not change what we print: the cashier section says which methods are accepted and which are not, and a poor withdrawal record is written up as a poor withdrawal record. The alternative is a site funded by nothing, which in practice means a site funded by whatever the operator wants said. We would rather disclose the arrangement and keep the reviews desk free to be unhelpful to the operator.

If a figure here does not match what you see in your account, write to the reviews desk and say which figure, which page, and what you are seeing instead. A screenshot of the relevant term or cashier screen is the most useful thing you can send. We check the claim against the source, correct the page if the correction holds, and say that it has been corrected. We do not argue the point in public, and we do not need your account details — only the discrepancy.
