Player's checklist: How not to get caught on the bone

1) Check license and site status

Find the license number on the casino website.
Check it with the official register of ACMA, MGA, UKGC or Curacao eGaming.
Check the date of issue of the license and relevance.
Exclude sites that are not in the registry or use fake licenses.

2) Platform reputation analysis

Study feedback on independent resources and forums.
Check the casino rating on aggregator sites.
Pay attention to complaints about non-payment or sudden blocking of accounts.

3) Evaluation of conditions transparency

Familiarize yourself with the rules of bonuses and vagers.
Check the section with the privacy policy and terms of use.
Make sure that there are no hidden fees and restrictions that are not explicitly indicated.

4) Technical safety check

Availability of HTTPS and a valid SSL certificate.
Two-factor authentication (2FA) for login.
Biometric protection in mobile applications.
Support for secure payment systems (PayID, POLi, BPAY, cards with 3D-Secure).

5) Support behavior

Prompt support response by chat or email.
Complete and specific answers to questions, not formulaic phrases.
Availability of localised support for Australian players.

6) Financial reviews

Withdrawal speed and availability of instant transactions.
Identity confirmation only through secure channels.
No sudden demands for additional deposits before withdrawal.

7) Personal precautions

Do not follow dubious links to the casino.
Do not share password and account information.
Authenticate applications in the official Google Play and App Store.

Conclusion:
  • Following this checklist allows an Australian player to identify fraudulent platforms before registration, avoid financial losses and play only on reliable and licensed sites.
