AUslots is an online casino with nearly 1,000 different pokies on tap. The site first launched in 2017 under a license of the Mirage Corporation but is now licensed in Curacao by MyMoon Ltd (#365/JAZ). The operators are registered in Belize City, Belize (Reg #171221).

Live dealer games are provided along with an interesting mix of random number game provider's titles. It's rare to find slots from Ganapati and Fugaso alongside titles from Xplosive, SlotVision, and Thunderkick - but it's a welcome surprise.

The operators have a good reputation across the board, but may not be responsive to complaints on some affiliate boards. A singular complaint on one site was not addressed by representatives or followed up by the player. With that, we can't give it weight except to say that players and operators should pick up every stitch.

We do see that representatives are available on some forums. We find one bonus complaint wherein the player bet on both player and banker hands in baccarat to negate the wagering requirements. They were given their deposit back, which was more than fair.

The site's terms and conditions are easy to find, clearly stated, and strict but ultimately fair. Although the operation is licensed they do not place a clickable link to the Master License holder certificate on the site as required by Curacao regulations. 

Software and Games

No download client is needed or available. All games are played securely in any web browser on any device connected to the internet. Mobile and desktop devices can play the same games. All of the games we tested were delivered in HTML5. Some titles may be delivered in Flash.

After a few seconds of viewing the status "preparing game," all titles downloaded quickly on mobile and desktop. 

The navigable path is well laid out. Game providers can be selected individually or in groups to filter games by the providers. It's a great way to craft your own slots lobby to include only the games you want to play.

Mixing in igTech with Endorphina is a blast! Fazi and Fugaso with a touch of NoLimitCity offers a new experience as well. We do notice an update they need to make, as it appears their website designer is not intimately aware of who's who in game providers. On the webpage you will see IGT's logo - however, in the active casino itself, the games are properly identified as igTech. Simply replacing the logo would avoid any confusion.

The igTech suite itself appears to be old Pragmatic Play games that have been repurposed for the Australian market - same themes and game engines but different titles and images. Betsoft no longer serves the Australian market. Interesting.

Jackpot slots

This section has a phenomenal number of progressive jackpot titles. Look for rarely seen games like Gods vs Titans by Lucky, Book of Spells from Fazi, Neon Reels by iSoftbet, and Mega Power Heroes by Fugaso.

You could win a life-changing amount of money from any progressive jackpot game. However, it's good to keep in mind that you give up part of each bet to feed the jackpots so playing progressive games on a small bankroll might not be your best bet. For instance, Jewel Sea from Fugaso offers mini, midi, and maxi jackpots but the RTP for regular gameplay is an abysmal 90.19%

Table games

This is one of the best assortments of random number generator table games in many markets. Habanero, Fazi, iSoftbet, Betsoft, Fugaso, Tom Horn, Wazdan, and Endorphina present everything from single deck blackjack to stud poker, and VIP roulette. 

Nearly every variant of (house-banked) table poker is on tap as well as blackjack in every shade and ruleset, with and without side bets.

Live dealer games 

Evoplay live gaming offers more than half a dozen tables. Felts include live Baccarat 777,  Texas Hold'em, American Roulette, Lucky 7s BJ, Euro roulette, and Oasis poker in two versions.

Evolution Gaming, the undisputed heavyweight champion of live dealer streams, sticks to the basics here with Lightning baccarat, First Person RNG BJ, RNG roulette, free bet BJ, First Person Mega Ball, Dream Catcher, and RNG Lightning Roulette.

Dedicated live gaming lobby

Look for separate portals to access live dealer games from Evolution, BetGames.tv, and Vivo.

BetGames was launched in 2012 and now has 9 tables which are streamed to as many as 40 different countries. 

They offer creative and fresh takes on traditional dice games, cards, and tables. 

Bonuses and Promotions

Look for an ample welcome bonus along with follow-ups like low wagering requirement cashback offers for playing live games or in the RNG suites. Cashback bonuses only need to be played through 2x and there are basically no limits on them beyond that.

Terms are clearly stated and ultimately fair. However, the word "fair" comes with the caveat "ultimately". That caveat is due to the wide-ranging and strict bonus play term that follows:

"...or while conducting full behavioural analysis, conclude that the player is exploiting, including, but not limited to; game odds, volatility, errors to gain unfair advantage over the bonus system or the Casino is hereby strictly forbidden."

That term means that they could, according to the terms, withhold winnings for anything ranging from changing bets in a Martingale scheme to changing the volatility of slot games by decreasing the number of paylines and increasing your bet per line.

To be fair, we've only seen them deny a payout for even-money betting to clear a bonus, but the representative did mention Martingale in the same breath.

Please sure to check terms for the list of games that are not allowed to be played when using any match bonuses. For the most part, it is a list of the normally excluded high RTP slots with low volatility, but it never hurts to be absolutely sure.

Banking and Customer Service

Not all payment methods are available in every country. In general, Visa, Mastercard, prepaid cards, Neteller, Skrill, ecoPayz, iDebit, Instadebit, Neosurf, and cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, and LiteCoin as well as wire transfers are accepted.

Litecoin has faster confirmations than Bitcoin, and Ethereum can have lower transfer fees. 

Game history and transaction history are available. A comprehensive FAQ should answer most questions. Live chat (24/7) and an online email form are also provided.

Pitfalls

• License not displayed
• 48 hours pending time
• Low weekly/monthly cashout limits ($3,000/$6,000)
• Strict bonus terms

The Final Word

AU Slots is a well put together site with a lot of gambling options. It's always nice to find a site that accepts Australian players and has a good reputation to boot.

The welcome offer, cashback with low wagering, reload plans, special Bitcoin bonuses, weekly specials, and weekly loyalty rewards are all attractive as are the wager-free Free Spins Rewards.

The terms are fair for the average player but might catch you out if you have a 'method' for beating bonuses. 

Banking might be too slow for some people but a 48 hour processing time is not too long for others and is better than some other venues offer.
