Who Are Online Pokies Australia?
OnlinePokies.com.au was established by a group of Aussies who love two things – having a flutter on the Melbourne Cup, and throwing the occasional pineapple into the pokies. What started as a fun side project to keep a running tab of all the awesome online pokies and casino slots that were constantly being released soon turned into something much bigger than ourselves as we realised that whilst there were plenty of fellow Aussies like us who loved the occasional punt there was also a darker side as we discovered the true extent of the issues relating to gambling and the far reaching social impact this was having on the entire country.
Ok this was way too depressing to think about and although I was tempted to go back to my happy ignorance and my occassional $50 flutter I decided that there must be a happy medium between having a fun play on the pokies with your mates and losing your mortgage chasing a Big Red Kangaroo or some Pyramids.
As a result OnlinePokies.com.au was born and in that time we have helped over 100,000 people find the online pokies they wanted or the gambling support they needed.
Bullshit Free Since 2003
Ok so this website hasn’t actually been operating since then but hey it rhymes and I’m using my poetic license so bite me.
For the most part Australians do not have a problem with gambling – well technically the addicts don’t have a ‘problem’ with it either but the sad fact is that many Aussies are negatively impacted by pokies, whether it be through their own bad habits or through the habits and addiction of close family and friends. As such we here at Online Pokies Australia do not want to be directly associated with perpetuating this growing socio-economic problem and as such have made sure as to provide you with the most up to date and relevant information relating to gambling, addiction, impacts on society and of course the latest and most relevant support and help services that are always available to anyone affected by gambling addiction. Just one look at the chart below says it all – and considering Singapore is full of Aussies and expat’s anyway it kinda doesn’t count. Therefore we are officially twice as bad as the rest of the world!! Yeah exactly.
Please see our Gambling Help Resources Page for a detailed list of products and services (all free and confidential) that can help you take a positive step in the right direction.
Why OnlinePokies.com.au?
Many websites out there will force you to pay to play pokie games at home or at the very least will ask you to sign up with your credit card details knowing full well that you cannot actually play any of the free casino games until you have made an initial deposit. Of course they fail to mention this prior to you signing up. Here at OnlinePokies.com.au we don’t want your money. We don’t want your email address, we just want you to enjoy yourself! – No really… because for us it about sharing the love for free online pokies and sharing what we’ve found with the world.
And hey, if you decide at some point in the future to play online pokies for real money then at that time we here at Online Pokies Australia will get a small cut for referring you. So everyone wins!
