The goal of Time2play NZ: earning your trust
The world of gambling can be a wonderful, entertaining one — emphasis on can. Often, gamblers put their faith in sources that are serving the casinos or bookies, not the players.
Time2play is taking a stand against that. We’re not here for your short-term money. We’re here to earn and deserve your trust.
The Time2play dream
Most online gamblers use Google, Twitch or Reddit to figure out where to play.
What do the search results from these platforms pull up?
- Paid advertisements masked as honest reviews.
- Bought placements on best of lists.
- Ratings based on the wishes of the casino/bookie.
Just look at almost any other recommendation portal out there. How many of them feature only casinos or bookies which are truly the best and most trusted in the online industry? Why do you think that is?
The Time2play dream is to be the source of truth for the gambling community.
Our pledge to you is that we will never allow gambling sites any say in how we rate or rank them. We will never adjust negative user reviews. We will never accept any commission beyond a standard referral fee. We will never accept deals that make us profit from your losses.
The rating system is our guarantee to you
Our Time2play rating system is how we walk the walk. Composed of three different important review methods, it ensures your 360 degree view on the topic at hand.
Our proprietary Playscore — all sources, one rating
We know that a lot of gamblers like to have multiple sources of information. Instead of needing to visit many different sites, our Playscore provides a complete market overview at one glance. The aggregated score summarises what other recommendation sites have rated — and all sources are linked and listed as well.
A published rating scale and real people rating
Usually, it’s not possible to check how a review site actually rates. Mostly because the ‘system’ behind it is whatever the casino/bookie pays for. Meaning, there’s no actual objective system — it’s a fixed rating from the get-go. The Time2play experts, however, review based on a published rating scale. All users can double check that the reviews are truly objective. And an extra plus? Our experts are real people, not afraid of putting their name on our project — unlike what you often see out there with fake profiles covering for multiple ghost writers.
An actual gambling community with players helping other players
Most importantly, at Time2play our users get a chance to rate all products. We pride ourselves in featuring the user ratings as they are — never adjusting them to make a gambling site look better. Our users get a chance to really help other users, and even casual players can provide support with their recommendations, warnings, successes, failures, and more.
The Time2play Playscore
Our Playscore is one of the three pillars of the Time2play rating system, built on a foundation of unbiased transparency.
We want you to have a comprehensive overview of the market in one place — that’s why Time2play experts consider ratings published by other review sites. In short, the Playscore is the average score (out of 100), collected from up to eight other sources.
The Playscore is integral to our system and offers three key benefits to our users:
Helping you avoid the scammers
We don’t just hope to guide you TO the best online gambling sites. We also hope to guide you AWAY from platforms that aren’t looking out for your best interests.
We advise you to avoid any gambling site with less than 40% Playscore or expert rating. There are severe reasons for such a low score!
We definitely don’t link to such sites — regardless of what this costs us in lost revenue.
