Terms and Conditions
These terms and conditions govern your use of elongate.cc (referred to throughout as "this site", "we" or "us"). By visiting or using this site, you agree to the terms set out below. Please read them carefully before relying on any content published here.
What This Site Is and What It Is Not
Online Casinos Australia is an independent comparison and review website. We research, rank and compare online casino operators that accept players from Australia. Our editorial content — including ratings, reviews, bonus summaries and payment guides — is produced for information purposes only.
We are not a casino operator, gambling service, financial adviser or legal authority. We do not facilitate wagering, hold player funds or process transactions of any kind. Nothing on this site constitutes a guarantee of winnings, a recommendation to gamble, or advice tailored to your personal financial situation.
Commercial Relationships and Editorial Independence
This site earns revenue through affiliate partnerships. When you follow a link to an operator and sign up or make a deposit, we may receive a commission from that operator. This is how the site is funded and allows us to keep our content free to readers.
Commercial relationships do not determine editorial rankings or ratings. Our positions are assigned through an independent research and review process. Operators cannot purchase a higher ranking. That said, the operators featured on this site are those with whom we have or may develop affiliate arrangements — we do not cover every operator available to Australian players.
For more on how we assess and rank casinos, visit our top picks for real money play page, where our evaluation criteria are explained in full.
Accuracy and Currency of Information
We make reasonable efforts to keep all content accurate and current. However, casino offers, bonus terms, payment methods, licensing details and game libraries change frequently — sometimes without notice. Any bonus, promotion or offer described on this site should be verified directly with the operator before you act on it.
Content on this site reflects research conducted up to the fact-check date shown on each page. We accept no liability for decisions made on the basis of information that has since changed.
Who May Use This Site
This site is intended for adults aged 18 years or older who are located in Australia. By using this site, you confirm that you meet the minimum age requirement and that online gambling is lawful in your jurisdiction.
It is your responsibility to ensure that accessing and using information about online casino gambling is permitted under the laws that apply to you. We make no representation that any operator featured here is licensed or authorised in every location from which they may be accessed.
If you are under 18, or if gambling is restricted or prohibited where you live, please leave this site.
The Casinos We Cover
All online casino operators reviewed on this site are offshore operators — that is, they are licensed and regulated in jurisdictions outside Australia. They are not licensed under Australian law, and the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth) is relevant context for Australian players. We summarise the legal landscape as accurately as we can, but we are not a legal service, and this does not constitute legal advice.
When assessing operators, we review their stated licensing jurisdiction, the terms attached to their bonuses, and the payment methods they make available to Australian players. We look at factors including withdrawal processing times, game ranges and responsible-gambling tools. Our ratings represent our editorial view at the time of research and are not customer review scores.
Bonus and Offer Terms
Bonus offers displayed on this site — including welcome bonuses, free spins and reload promotions — are subject to terms set entirely by the relevant casino operator. These commonly include:
- Wagering requirements (often expressed as a multiple of the bonus or deposit amount)
- Maximum cashout limits on winnings derived from bonus funds
- Game contribution rates — pokies typically count at 100%, while table games may count at a lower rate or not at all
- Expiry dates on both the bonus and any free spins awarded
- Minimum deposit thresholds to qualify
- Eligibility restrictions based on country of residence or payment method used
Always read the full bonus terms on the operator's own site before depositing. Material conditions are placed beside offers on our pages where they have been supplied to us, but we cannot guarantee they reflect the most current version of an operator's terms.
Responsible Gambling
Gambling carries real financial risk. It should be treated as entertainment, not as a source of income. We strongly encourage all visitors to set limits, gamble within their means and seek help if gambling stops being enjoyable.
Australian support services include:
- Gambling Help Online — 1800 858 858 (free, 24/7)
- Lifeline — 13 11 14
Our responsible gambling page has further information on tools, limits and support options available to Australian players.
