Terms and Conditions

These terms and conditions explain how abodycandle.com operates, what our content is intended for, and what you agree to by using this site. Please read them carefully before relying on any review, ranking or bonus information published here.

Who This Site Is For

Online Casinos is an independent information resource for adults in Australia who are researching online casinos, pokies, bonuses and payment options before deciding where to play. Nothing on this site is an invitation to gamble, and using this site does not create any account, deposit or wagering obligation. You must be at least 18 years old, or the legal age in your jurisdiction if higher, to use this site or to sign up with any casino operator we mention.

What This Site Does — and Doesn't Do

We research, compare and rank offshore online casino operators that accept Australian players, based on publicly available information about their licensing, bonus terms, game libraries, payment methods and mobile compatibility. Our reviews are editorial opinion formed from that research — they are not financial, legal or gambling advice, and they are not a guarantee of any operator's conduct, payout speed or ongoing terms.

• We do not operate any casino, accept deposits, or process withdrawals ourselves.
• We do not guarantee that any bonus, offer or promotion listed on this site is still available, or that it will be honoured exactly as described, by the time you visit an operator's site.
• We do not test operators by depositing, wagering or withdrawing funds; our assessments are based on published terms, licensing details and publicly available information.
• Odds, RTP percentages, wagering requirements and bonus terms change at the operator's discretion. Always confirm current terms directly with the casino before signing up.

Offshore Operators and Your Own Responsibility

The casinos reviewed and ranked on this site are offshore operators that accept Australian players but are not licensed in Australia. Before registering with any operator, it's your responsibility to check its current licensing jurisdiction, read its own terms and conditions in full, and satisfy yourself that it's appropriate for your circumstances. We link out to operators for convenience, but we do not control their sites, their terms, or how they handle your account once you register.

Commercial Relationships and How Rankings Work

abodycandle.com may earn a commission when readers click through to, or sign up with, an operator featured on this site. This does not cost you anything extra, and it does not determine our rankings or ratings — commission arrangements never buy a higher position, a better editorial score, or more favourable coverage. Our evaluation criteria cover licensing information, bonus terms and wagering conditions, the range of pokies, table and live-dealer games on offer, Australian-friendly payment methods, withdrawal limits and processing times, and mobile compatibility.

Accuracy and Updates

We update pages when we identify a change to an operator's offer, licensing status or terms, but bonus values, expiry dates, wagering requirements and payment conditions are set by the operators themselves and can change without notice. Where a page states a specific bonus amount, currency or condition, treat it as accurate as of the date shown, and confirm it directly with the operator before you rely on it. Figures on this site are shown in the currency each operator promotes, which may not always be AUD.

Your Use of This Site

You may browse and use the information on abodycandle.com for personal, non-commercial research. You may not copy, republish or redistribute our content without permission, and you may not use the site in a way that disrupts its operation or misrepresents our reviews as your own.

Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, abodycandle.com is not liable for any loss arising from your use of this site, your decision to register with, deposit at, or wager with any operator listed here, or from inaccuracies in third-party information we've reported in good faith. Gambling carries financial risk, and any decision to play at an offshore casino is made at your own discretion and expense.

Responsible Gambling

If you choose to gamble, only do so with money you can afford to lose, and be aware of the tools available to manage your play, including deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. If you'd like guidance on setting limits or where to find support, see our Responsible Gambling page. If you're specifically comparing bonus offers before you sign up anywhere, our page on no deposit bonus offers for Australian players covers how those promotions typically work and what to check in the fine print.

Changes to These Terms

We may update these terms from time to time to reflect changes to how the site operates or to legal requirements. The version published here is the one currently in effect, and continued use of the site after an update means you accept the revised terms.
