Terms and Conditions
These terms and conditions govern your use of Online Casinos Australia at thetonik.com.au. By browsing or using this site, you agree to the terms set out below. Please read them carefully before relying on any information published here.
Who We Are and What This Site Does
Online Casinos Australia is an independent comparison and review website operated at thetonik.com.au. We research, review and compare offshore online casinos available to adult players in Australia. Our content covers casino bonuses, online pokies, table games, live dealer rooms, payment methods, withdrawals and mobile compatibility.
We do not operate a casino, accept wagers, process payments on behalf of any casino, or act as an agent for any player. Nothing on this site constitutes a gaming service.
Editorial Independence and Commercial Relationships
Some of the casinos featured on thetonik.com.au have a commercial relationship with us. Where a player follows a link from this site and registers or deposits at a casino, we may receive a commission from that operator. This is how independent comparison sites of this kind are funded.
Commercial relationships do not determine which casinos appear on this site or how they are ranked. Our editorial ratings are based on the criteria described on our best online casinos page, and no operator can pay for a higher position. We aim to present an honest and balanced assessment of every casino we cover, including its limitations.
Where we use the word "recommended," it reflects our editorial assessment at the time of publication — not a guarantee of any outcome for the reader.
Accuracy and Currency of Information
We make reasonable efforts to keep the information on this site accurate and current. Casino bonuses, terms, payment options, game libraries and licences change frequently, and there may be a delay between a change occurring and our content reflecting it.
- Always verify current bonus terms directly with the casino before depositing.
- Check that the casino accepts players from your state or territory — availability can vary across Australia.
- Confirm payment method availability and any fees with the operator at the time of sign-up.
- Licence and regulatory details should be verified through the issuing authority, not solely through our summaries.
We do not warrant that information on this site is complete, accurate or up to date at any given moment. We accept no liability for decisions made in reliance on content published here.
Who May Use This Site
This site is intended for adults aged 18 and over who are located in Australia. By using thetonik.com.au, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and that online gambling is lawful in your jurisdiction.
It is your responsibility to determine whether accessing offshore online casino sites is permitted under the laws that apply to you. Online Casinos Australia does not provide legal advice. The casinos listed on this site are operated offshore and are not licensed by an Australian state or territory gambling authority. Australian federal law, specifically the Interactive Gambling Act 2001, restricts certain forms of online gambling services being offered to Australian residents, but does not make it an offence for an individual to play at an offshore site. You should satisfy yourself as to the legal position before proceeding.
We strongly encourage all readers to gamble responsibly. If gambling is affecting you or someone you know, free and confidential support is available through the National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 and at Gambling Help Online (gamblinghelponline.org.au). You can also read more on our responsible gambling page.
No Guarantee of Outcomes
Nothing published on this site implies or guarantees that a player will win money, receive a bonus, or have a particular experience at any casino. Casino games involve chance. Bonuses are subject to terms set by the operator, including wagering requirements, game restrictions, expiry dates and maximum cashout limits. These conditions are set by the casino, not by us, and can change at any time.
Editorial ratings reflect our assessment of the casino as a product — they are not predictions of how a session will go for any individual player.
Third-Party Sites and Links
This site contains links to third-party websites, including the casino operators we review. Once you leave thetonik.com.au, you are subject to the terms, privacy policy and conditions of the site you have visited. We have no control over third-party content and accept no responsibility for it.
The casinos listed on this site set their own terms for registration, bonuses, wagering, payments and account closure. Any dispute you have with a casino operator is between you and that operator. We can provide information but cannot intervene in player disputes.
Intellectual Property
All original content on thetonik.com.au — including written reviews, comparison tables, editorial ratings and site design — is the property of Online Casinos Australia and may not be reproduced, distributed or republished without written permission. Casino names, logos and trademarks referenced on this site belong to their respective owners and are used for identification purposes only. Their appearance does not imply endorsement of this site by those operators.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, Online Casinos Australia and its operators exclude all liability for any loss or damage arising from your use of this site or reliance on its content. This includes, but is not limited to, financial loss, loss of data and any indirect or consequential loss. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under Australian Consumer Law.
Privacy
We collect limited data about how visitors use this site in order to improve our content and measure performance. We do not sell personal data to third parties. For details on what we collect, how we store it and your rights, please contact us at [email protected].
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms and conditions at any time. The current version is always published at this URL. Continued use of the site after any update constitutes acceptance of the revised terms. The page header above shows the date this version was last reviewed.
