Who we are
TF Info was founded in 2024 as a small independent editorial project. The idea was straightforward: the internet has plenty of loud marketing pages about Australian online services, but very few honest, numbered how-to guides written for adults who want to understand what is actually happening on the screen in front of them. We publish the guides we wish we had been able to read when we first tried to sort our own way through the same processes.
Our editorial team is small — a Guides Editor, a copy editor, and a rotating panel of subject-specialist reviewers. Everything you read on this site is written from a first-person Australian perspective, uses Australian English spelling, and assumes a reader who wants to understand a process rather than be sold a product.
Our editorial approach
Every guide on TF Info is structured around numbered steps, clear checkpoints, and realistic timing estimates. We do not publish sales copy. We do not accept placement fees to feature operators or brands. We do not link out to affiliate networks. Where we mention an external body such as a regulator, we mention it by name only and let you look it up yourself.
We use AI-assisted drafting for some of the first-pass structural work, but every published paragraph is reviewed and edited by a human editor before it goes live. Numbers, dates and regulatory references are checked against public sources. Where any factual detail is unclear or in dispute, we say so in the text rather than glossing over it. Corrections are welcome and are actioned within one working week of receipt.
Meet Michael Turner, Guides Editor
Michael Turner leads editorial at TF Info. Michael writes structured how-to guides for Australian consumers, focused on making complex online services understandable through numbered walkthroughs and clear checkpoints. He is based in Melbourne and has covered offshore consumer digital markets since 2022, with a particular interest in the way Australian regulatory settings interact with globally-licensed operators.
Michael's writing style is deliberately patient. He treats each step as its own paragraph, each checkpoint as its own callout, and each timing estimate as its own honest number rather than a marketing figure. If you have a suggestion, a question, or a correction, Michael is the person who reads it. Contact details are on the Contact page.
What we cover
Our current focus is the offshore-licensed casino market that Australian residents can practically access, because it is one of the most opaque consumer topics in the country and one where public information is easily drowned out by marketing. We cover licence verification, sign-up processes, identity verification, deposit and withdrawal mechanics, bonus terms and responsible-gambling settings. We have plans to expand into other adult-oriented Australian consumer topics through 2026 and 2027.
Corrections and updates
We update every guide when a material fact changes and refresh timing estimates twice a year. Every page carries a "Last updated" date under the headline byline. If you see something out of date or believe a factual claim on the site is wrong, please email us via the Contact page. Corrections are logged internally and the affected page is updated within one working week.
How we are funded
TF Info is self-funded by its editorial team and does not run display advertising, affiliate links, sponsored posts or paid product placements. That funding model means we can publish honestly about topics where the marketing incentives run in one direction and the reader's interest runs in the other. It also means the site is small on purpose. We publish fewer pages, at a slower pace, than a large commercial content operation would, and we prefer that trade-off.
Our editorial values
Three values shape the site. Clarity: every step is written to be understood by an intelligent adult who is not a subject expert. Honesty: if a timing estimate is a rough guess rather than a measured figure, we say so. Restraint: we do not publish a page unless there is something practical to add, and we do not link out to anywhere that would introduce a commercial conflict of interest. If those values matter to you, we would love to hear from you at the Contact page above.
