| 1. Registration | We create a real account using Australian residency details and document the full flow — email verification, age gate, wallet currency selection, bonus opt-in. |
| 2. KYC submission | We upload a genuine government ID and proof-of-address early, then time how long approval takes. |
| 3. Deposits | At least four real deposits across different rails (PayID, Neosurf, Visa, crypto) to record processing times, fees and any friction. |
| 4. Gameplay | Six weeks of real sessions — pokies, live dealer, table games — at typical Aussie bet sizes. We track RTP experience, studio coverage and platform stability. |
| 5. Bonus testing | We activate the welcome package end-to-end, meet the wagering on a real stake, and confirm whether the withdrawal clears on schedule. |
| 6. Withdrawals | Minimum three cashouts across fiat and crypto, timed from request to received-in-wallet. We record every anomaly. |
| 7. Support | At least ten live-chat and email enquiries across bonus, KYC, limit and complaint scenarios. |
| 8. Publication | Findings are drafted, peer-reviewed internally, fact-checked against the operator's current T&Cs, and only then published with a date-stamp. |
