  • Single account policy: You may hold only one Account with the Operator. Creating multiple Accounts, using aliases or impersonating other persons is prohibited and may lead to termination, forfeiture of Bonuses and cancellation of winnings.

KYC and Identity Verification

    • valid government-issued photo ID (passport, national ID card, driver licence);

  • Password and security: You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your login details. You must:
    • choose a strong and unique password;
    • not disclose your credentials to any third party; and
    • immediately notify the Operator if you suspect unauthorised access to your Account.
    Any actions carried out under your credentials will be deemed to have been performed by you.
  • Use for personal entertainment only: The Account and Services are offered for your personal, non-commercial entertainment. You must not use the Site for professional gambling, hedging, arbitrage, money laundering or any fraudulent or unlawful purposes.

Betting & Gameplay Rules

General Betting Conditions

  • Funding your play: You may place Bets only using funds credited to your Account's real-money balance or Bonus balance as applicable. No credit is provided by the Operator.
  • Minimum and maximum stakes: Each game or betting product available on the Site specifies the minimum and maximum stake per round, line, hand or Bet. You agree to observe the limits displayed in the game interface. The Operator may also impose overall Account-based limits.
  • Types of games: The Site may offer, subject to licensing scope, video slots, table games, live casino, jackpots, instant win games and tournaments. Specific rules for each game are provided by the relevant game provider and accessible within the game help section. In case of discrepancy, the game provider's rules prevail.
  • Time of acceptance: A Bet is deemed accepted once it is recorded on the Operator's servers and confirmed by the system. Screen messages or local device records that conflict with the Operator's records will not bind the Operator.

Cancellation and Modification of Bets

  • No unilateral cancellation: Once a Bet has been accepted and the game round or event has started, you cannot cancel or modify the Bet, except where the game rules specifically allow such actions.
  • Operator corrections: The Operator reserves the right, acting reasonably, to void or adjust Bets in the following non-exhaustive circumstances:
    • obvious errors in odds, paytables or game configuration ("palpable errors");
    • technical malfunction, misconfiguration or interruption affecting the correct outcome or settlement;
    • where the Bet was accepted after the outcome was known or should reasonably have been known; or
    • where you or a third party have attempted to exploit a bug, loophole or vulnerability.
    In such cases, the Operator may declare the Bet void and refund the stake, or adjust the settlement to the fair and correct outcome.

Rules of Conduct and Fair Play

  • Prohibited behaviour: When using the Site, live casino, chat or other communication tools, you must not:
    • threaten, abuse, harass, defame or insult other players, dealers or staff;
    • use racist, sexist, discriminatory, obscene or otherwise offensive language or content;
    • promote illegal activity, including offering to sell or buy accounts, chips or payment instruments; or
    • spam, advertise or solicit other users.
  • Collusion and cheating: You must not:
    • collude with other players or third parties to gain an unfair advantage;
    • use automated software, bots, scripts, AI agents or devices to place Bets or analyse games in real time, unless specifically permitted by the Operator;
    • exploit any software bug, latency, error or loophole to manipulate results or payouts; or
    • engage in chargeback abuse or misuse of payment instruments.
    The Operator may suspend or close Accounts and withhold winnings where it has reasonable grounds to suspect such behaviour, subject to Applicable Law.
  • Live casino rules: In live dealer games, you must follow the instructions of the dealer and respect the published rules. Any disputes about game outcomes will be resolved based on the video records, game logs and decisions of the game provider, which shall be final.

Bonus Terms

Bonus Activation

  • Eligibility: Bonuses and promotions offered on the Site, including via Playfina, are available only to registered Players who meet the specific offer conditions (e.g. minimum deposit, promotional code, geographic eligibility).
  • Claiming Bonuses: To activate a Bonus you may be required to:
    • enter a bonus code during deposit;
    • opt in through the cashier or promotions page; or
    • accept the Bonus in your Account interface.
      • Failure to follow the stated steps may result in the Bonus not being credited.
    • One offer per person: Unless expressly stated otherwise, each Bonus is limited to one per person, family, household address, email address, IP address, device and payment method.

    Wagering Requirements and Timeframes

    • Standard wagering: Each Bonus will specify a wagering requirement (for example, 40x the Bonus amount, or 40x the deposit plus Bonus) and a validity period (for example, 7 - 14 days) within which the requirement must be met. From 2026 onward, the Operator may amend standard wagering levels, and the specific offer terms at the time of claim shall apply.
    • Contribution of games: Not all games contribute equally towards Wagering Requirements. As a general guideline (subject to variation in individual offers):
      • video slots - typically 100% contribution, subject to exclusions;
      • table games, video poker, live casino - typically 0 - 10% contribution or excluded;
      • jackpot games - usually 0% contribution and often prohibited with active Bonuses.
      The exact contribution rules are set out in the relevant bonus terms or game list.
    • Bonus funds and withdrawals: Until Wagering Requirements are fully met:
      • Bonus funds and any associated winnings remain locked and cannot be withdrawn;
      • if you request a withdrawal before fulfilling Wagering Requirements, the Operator may cancel the Bonus and deduct associated winnings, crediting only your remaining real-money balance.

    Prohibited Games and Bonus Abuse

    • Restricted gameplay: When playing with an active Bonus you must not:
      • place single Bets exceeding the maximum allowed bet size stated in the bonus terms (for example, a maximum of AUD equivalent as specified per offer);
      • use low-risk betting strategies (such as betting simultaneously on red and black, or high and low) intended to artificially meet wagering with minimal risk;
      • play excluded games listed in the bonus conditions; or
      • delay game rounds, such as saving free spins or bonus features to play later once wagering has been completed using cash-only deposits.
    • Abuse and fraud: The Operator may, acting reasonably, void Bonuses, cancel winnings, and close or limit Accounts if it has reasonable grounds to believe that:
      • you have opened multiple Accounts to claim the same Bonus;
      • you have engaged in bonus hunting, matched betting or other abusive patterns;
      • you have colluded with others to exploit promotions; or
      • you have otherwise breached these Terms or the specific bonus terms.

    Combining Promotions

    • No automatic stacking: Unless explicitly allowed, Bonuses cannot be combined. Only one active deposit-based Bonus may be in play at any given time.
    • Priority of real funds: In most cases, real-money funds are used before Bonus funds when placing Bets. The precise order of funds usage is described in the bonus mechanics on the Site.
    • Changes and cancellations: The Operator may modify, suspend or withdraw any Bonus or promotion (including for players accessing via Playfina) at its sole discretion, provided that:
      • such changes do not affect Bonuses already accepted, except where required by law or to address fraud or significant error; and
      • players are informed of material changes via the Site or by email where reasonably practicable.

    Payments & Withdrawals

    Deposit Methods and Processing

    • Payment options: Subject to availability in your location and to payment processor constraints, you may fund your Account using:
      • bank cards (e.g. Visa, Mastercard and others where supported);
      • selected e-wallets and online payment services;
      • prepaid vouchers where available; and
      • cryptocurrencies supported by the Site's cashier (such as Bitcoin or others made available from time to time).
      Specific options for Australian residents may be restricted due to local banking and ACMA-related measures.
    • Limits and fees: The Operator may set minimum and maximum deposit amounts per transaction, day, week or month. Information on applicable limits and any fees charged by the Operator is displayed in the cashier. Your bank, card issuer, e-wallet provider or crypto exchange may impose additional fees or exchange rate charges outside the Operator's control.
    • Currency and exchange: Deposits may be accepted in various currencies as specified on the Site. Where currency conversion is required, it will be performed at the rate and with any margin applied by the relevant payment provider at the time of the transaction.

    Withdrawals

    • General conditions: You may request a withdrawal of available funds from your Account, subject to:
      • successful completion of KYC checks;
      • fulfilment of Wagering Requirements for any active Bonuses;
      • absence of reasonable suspicion of fraud, money laundering or other unlawful activity; and
      • compliance with any minimum and maximum withdrawal limits displayed in the cashier.
    • Payment method rules: Where possible, withdrawals will be processed to the same payment method used for deposit. The Operator may, at its discretion and in line with anti-money laundering rules, direct withdrawals to an alternative method in your name.
    • Processing times: The Operator aims to review and process withdrawal requests promptly, generally within a reasonable timeframe (e.g. 0 - 72 hours) after your request and completion of any required checks. Actual receipt times depend on third-party payment providers and are outside the Operator's direct control.
    • Staggered payments: The Operator may pay large withdrawals in instalments, subject to daily, weekly or monthly limits for security, regulatory or risk-management reasons. Details are set out in the cashier or general payout policy.

    Refunds, Chargebacks and Reversals

    • Deposits final: Deposits are considered final once successfully processed and credited. Refunds of deposited amounts will be granted only in exceptional cases at the Operator's sole discretion and may require you to provide additional information.
    • Chargebacks: If you initiate a chargeback, dispute or reversal of a payment:
      • the Operator may immediately suspend or close your Account;
      • your balance, winnings and Bonuses may be frozen pending investigation; and
      • the Operator may take reasonable steps to recover amounts owed, including engaging collection agencies and reporting fraudulent payments to relevant authorities.
    • Refunding Bets and Bonuses: In the event of game malfunctions, palpable errors or voided events, the Operator may:
      • refund the original Bet to your Account;
      • re-credit Bonus funds that were unwittingly used; or
      • adjust your balance to the state it would have been in absent the error.
        • Such adjustments shall constitute full and final settlement of the matter, to the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law.

      Limitation of Liability

      Operator's Obligations

      • Fairness and integrity: The Operator uses game providers and systems that, to the best of its knowledge, employ random number generators and game logic audited or tested under its Curaçao licence framework.

      • Regulatory measures in Australia: The Site operates under a Curaçao licence and is not licensed by Australian authorities. The ACMA may order blocking of domains or IPs associated with unlicensed gambling services.

      Maximum Liability

      • Cap on damages: To the maximum extent permitted by Applicable Law, the Operator's aggregate liability to you for any claim arising out of or in connection with the Site, the Services or these Terms (whether in contract, tort, negligence or otherwise) shall not exceed:
