Fair Go opened its doors in 2017 with one idea: give Australian players a straightforward online casino that treats them squarely. We built the brand around pokies, plain bonus codes and payouts that actually arrive, and more than three million players have signed up since. This page lays out who operates us, how we are licensed and who writes the guides you read here. We want you to know exactly who you are dealing with before you deposit a cent. You must be 18 or over to play with us, and we ask everyone to gamble within their means.
Where Fair Go Started
The name says it. "A fair go" is shorthand here for giving everyone a square deal, and that is the standard we set ourselves back in 2017 when the casino launched for the Australian market.
From the start the focus was narrow on purpose. Rather than chase every market on the planet, we built around the things Aussie players actually ask for: a deep pokies library, welcome offers you can read without a law degree, and a support team that picks up at three in the morning. That focus is why more than three million players have made an account with us over the years, and why a lot of them stick around.
We are not pretending to be the biggest casino in the world. What we aim to be is the one that does the basics properly for players Down Under, year in and year out.
Who Operates and Licenses Fair Go
Fair Go is operated by Deckmedia N.V., a company registered at Heelsumstraat 51, E-Commerce Park, Willemstad, Curacao. Deckmedia holds the gaming licence under which this casino runs, and it also handles payment processing.
Let us be straight about the licence, because it matters. We are licensed in Curacao. That is an offshore jurisdiction, not an Australian one. Australia does not issue licences to online casinos like ours, so no operator in this space holds a local Australian gambling licence, and we are not going to claim otherwise. A Curacao licence sets the rules we operate under offshore; it is not the same thing as Australian regulatory oversight, and you should weigh that up before you play.
We do not publish a licence number on the site, so you will not find one quoted here either. If anyone shows you a Fair Go "Australian licence number," treat it as a red flag.
- Operator: Deckmedia N.V., based in Willemstad, Curacao.
- Licence: Curacao — offshore, not an Australian licence.
- Australia does not licence online casinos, so no site in this market holds a local one.
The Pokies and the Software Behind Them
Our library runs on a single, long-standing studio. It started life as RealTime Gaming, better known as RTG, and now operates under the SpinLogic Gaming name after a rebrand. Same engine room, new badge on the door.
Across that platform we offer roughly 280 pokies, plus a handful of table games, video poker and specialty titles. We quote that number honestly rather than inflating it: this is a curated RTG-style catalogue, not a 5,000-game aggregator, and the trade-off is that the maths and the feature mechanics are consistent across the lot. Players who like that house style tend to stay. One title you will only find with us is Kev's Bush Bonanza, a 50-payline pokie with a Fortune Link feature and a 50,000x top award.
Because everything sits on one provider, instant play in the browser works the same on desktop and mobile, with no app download required.
What You Get as a Fair Go Player
Four things sum up the offer: pokies, bonus codes, fast crypto payouts and round-the-clock support.
New players can claim a welcome package worth up to A$1,000 across the first five deposits, plus 100 free spins, by entering a bonus code at the cashier. We lean on plain codes rather than buried small print, and the full wagering terms sit on the bonus page so you can check them before opting in. On payments, we run cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Neosurf, CashtoCode, eZeeWallet and bank transfer alongside several cryptocurrencies, and crypto withdrawals are processed instantly once a request clears approval. Our support team is on live chat 24/7, every day of the year.
- Welcome package: up to A$1,000 over five deposits, plus 100 free spins, via bonus code.
- Crypto cashouts are processed instantly after approval; card payouts take a little longer.
- Support is on live chat 24/7.
Our Commitment to Safer Gambling
Gambling is meant to be entertainment, not a way to make money or dig out of a hole. We say that plainly because it is the single most important thing on this page.
Inside your account you can set deposit limits, take a cooling-off period, switch on session-time reminders or self-exclude entirely. We would rather you used those tools early than waited until things got out of hand. You must be 18 or over to hold an account, and we verify identity to keep underage and fraudulent play out.
If gambling stops being fun, free and confidential help is available in Australia. Call Gambling Help Online on 1800 858 858, or Lifeline on 13 11 14 if you need to talk to someone now. You can also block yourself from licensed Australian operators through BetStop, the national self-exclusion register.
- In-account tools: deposit limits, cooling-off, session reminders, self-exclusion.
- Gambling Help Online — 1800 858 858; Lifeline — 13 11 14.
- BetStop is Australia's national self-exclusion register; you must be 18+ to play.
Who Writes the Guides You Read Here
The pages on this site are not anonymous filler. They are written and maintained by people who know the subject, and we put a name to that work.
Our lead writer is Mason Turner, a pokies and RTP analyst with nine years in the field. Mason is known for digging into the maths behind a game rather than the headline jackpot: volatility profiles, payout benchmarking and what a return-to-player figure really means for your session. When a guide here talks about high-RTP pokies or realistic win expectations, that is the analysis underneath it. Our method is consistent across every page: we describe how the casino actually works, we cite the specifics from our own platform, and we flag the trade-offs instead of glossing over them.
We review and update these guides as our games, bonuses and payment methods change, so what you read reflects how Fair Go runs today rather than how it ran years ago.
