- Deposit limits may apply depending on the method and jurisdiction.
- We may require documentary evidence for certain transactions to comply with AML checks.
- Only use payment methods registered in your name unless otherwise approved by Support.

Wagering Requirements and Bonus Conditions
Promotions and bonuses are offered to enhance play but come with specific conditions. We regularly audited promotional terms and our results show that adherence to these conditions prevents disputes and ensures fairness for all players.
- Each bonus has explicit terms indicating eligible games, contribution rates and wagering requirements.
- Bonuses earned or given may be subject to wagering (play-through) before a withdrawal is allowed.
- Promotional offers are valid only on the games or game types specified in the offer.
- Using strategies to unfairly meet wagering requirements when a bonus is active is prohibited; we reserve the right to void winnings if abuse is detected.
- Only one account may use a given credit/debit card. Multiple accounts sharing the same card may be restricted and winnings cancelled.
Examples of Bonus Scenarios
- If you deposit via PayID and receive a deposit bonus, you must play through the deposited amount at least 1x before requesting a withdrawal (unless different terms apply to the bonus).
- If you deposit with a Credit Card and a bonus is awarded, you must play through the deposited amount at least 3x before making a withdrawal request.
- Some free spins or promotional credits may only be valid on selected slot titles; playing games excluded from the offer may lead to forfeiture of winnings associated with that bonus.
Prohibited Conduct
To protect the integrity of gameplay and other users, the following conduct is prohibited and may result in account suspension, cancellation of bets and forfeiture of funds.
- Collusion, coordinated wagering, or any attempt to manipulate game outcomes.
- Use of automated bots, scripts or programmed devices to place wagers or influence gameplay.
- Using multiple accounts to exploit bonuses or promotions unless explicitly authorised by us.
- Attempting chargebacks or reversing transactions without contacting our support team first.
- Providing false information during registration or verification.
Game Malfunctions and Errors
Occasionally software or communication errors may affect gameplay. Our technical team continuously monitors platform stability. Based on our testing and incident reviews, the following procedures apply:
- If a game malfunction is detected we may void affected rounds or bets and restore balances where appropriate.
- Players should not attempt to take advantage of known system errors; exploiting such errors may lead to account suspension and legal action.
- If funds or gameplay are lost due to a malfunction we will investigate with third-party suppliers and, at our discretion, determine whether funds are returned.
Account Suspension, Closures and Appeals
We may suspend or close accounts where there is suspicion of rule breaches, AML concerns, fraud, or a violation of local law. In such cases:
- We may withhold funds while we conduct a full investigation.
- We will notify you of the action and the reason where disclosure does not conflict with an active investigation or legal process.
- If you want to appeal a decision, contact Support with any relevant documentation; we aim to respond within a reasonable timeframe after receipt of the appeal.
Responsible Gambling and Self-Exclusion
The Pokies 114 is committed to promoting responsible play. We provide tools and support options to manage betting activity. Our testing of responsible gambling flows shows that timely interventions reduce harm and improve player outcomes.
- Players can set deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders and other controls (where available) via their account or by contacting Support.
- Self-exclusion requests will be honoured and may result in permanent account closure depending on jurisdiction and internal policy.
- If you feel your gambling is becoming a problem, seek professional help and make use of self-exclusion and limit tools immediately.
Security, Privacy and Data Handling
We treat personal data and financial details with high standards of security. Our privacy and data handling practices comply with applicable law and are designed to protect your information. We may use your data for verification, anti-fraud checks, regulatory reporting and to provide customer support.

AML, Fraud Prevention and Chargebacks
We operate robust AML and fraud detection systems. From our operational experience, delays or temporary holds on transactions may occur while we validate information to comply with legal obligations.
- We may request transaction records, proof of source of funds and identity documents.
