Operator and Definitions
"The pokies net" and every numbered mirror — including the pokies 172, the pokies 124 and all other addresses — operate under one Curacao licence and one account system. "Real-money balance" means deposited funds in the account. "Bonus balance" means promotional credit carrying a wagering condition. "KYC" means the identity verification process required before withdrawal.
Eligibility
The service is available to players aged 18 or over. Each player is responsible for confirming that online gambling is lawful in their jurisdiction. The pokies net does not hold an Australian gaming licence. AFCA, state gambling regulators and Australian courts do not govern disputes under these terms. BetStop exclusions are honoured where technically feasible.
Registration
One account per player. Accounts sharing a name, address, household, device, IP or payment method may be treated as duplicates and closed with balances forfeited. Registration information must be accurate. Providing false details results in account closure without recourse.
Identity Verification
Required before the first withdrawal at the pokies net:
- Government-issued photo ID
- Selfie holding that ID
- Proof of current address — utility bill or bank statement within three months
Source of funds documentation may be required at higher withdrawal volumes. Once KYC is cleared on a payment method, repeated withdrawals on that method process without re-submission unless a compliance flag is raised.
Deposits
Accepted methods: PayID, Visa, Mastercard, Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT, Litecoin. Minimum amounts are shown in the cashier. All deposits must originate from payment methods in the account holder's name. Third-party deposits are not accepted. Funds used in gameplay are not refundable.
Withdrawals
Minimum: AU$50. Cap: AU$10,000 per transaction. PayID and crypto settle within one hour post-KYC. Card and bank transfer take 3–5 business days. The pokies net charges no fees on deposits or withdrawals.
Withdrawals may be held when:
- KYC documents have not been verified
- A bonus wagering requirement is active and not yet cleared or forfeited
- A compliance or fraud review is underway
To forfeit an active bonus and withdraw the real-money deposit balance, use the forfeit option in the cashier or contact support through the contact page.
Bonus Terms
All promotions at the pokies net carry a wagering requirement. Default is 35× the bonus amount. Pokies contribute 100% toward the rollover. Live dealer and table games contribute at a lower rate specified per promotion. A win cap applies to bonus balances before rollover clears.
Non-sticky structure: the real-money deposit and bonus balance are held separately. The deposit is withdrawable at any time regardless of bonus status. Bonus abuse — including multi-accounting, arbitrage and collusion — results in account closure and forfeiture of all balances. Active promotion terms are displayed in the cashier before acceptance.
Games
All titles are provided by licensed studios and carry independent RNG certification. RTPs are published in the lobby info panel. Bets settled by the game server are final. Technical faults voiding a round result in stake return after investigation. Disconnection outcomes are determined by the game server and stand as settled.
Fair Play
Bots, scripts and automated tools are prohibited. Collusion in live dealer formats is prohibited. Known software errors must be reported — winnings from a known error will be voided. The pokies net monitors accounts for patterns consistent with prohibited behaviour.
Account Closure
Account closure requests are handled through the contact page. Pending cleared balances are paid before closure finalises. Self-exclusion results in permanent account closure that cannot be reversed through a support request. For multi-platform exclusion, register with BetStop — details are on the responsible gambling page.
Complaints
Formal complaints submitted via email receive a written response within two business days. Include the account email, issue description and desired outcome. Unresolved matters escalate through the Curacao licensor dispute process. AFCA jurisdiction does not apply.
Changes to These Terms
The pokies net may update these terms at any time. Players will be notified of material changes via registered email. Continued use of the platform or any numbered mirror after a change notification constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
