Casinos in Australia: 2026 guide
None of the operators listed below holds a licence of this country — all of them work under foreign licences.
Regulation
In Australia online casinos with games such as slots and roulette are banned by the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA): offering them to residents is illegal. Online sports and race betting, however, is permitted and licensed at the state and territory level. Despite the ban, many Australians play on offshore sites, which the regulator ACMA tries to block. Land-based casinos are legal and operate in major cities — Crown in Melbourne and Sydney, The Star and others; slot machines ('pokies') are extremely widespread in clubs and pubs. The currency is the Australian dollar; cards, bank transfers and e-wallets are used. Recreational players' winnings are untaxed. Players should understand the illegal status of online casinos and the risks of offshore platforms.
