Who runs HouseCasino
We are an independent affiliate review portal for Australian online casinos. No corporate parent, no paid placements, no PR-led reviews. Just a small editorial team that deposits real money, plays through, withdraws, and writes what happened.
What we do
We review online casinos that accept Australian players. Every casino on the site has been tested over 240+ hours with real money. Our scoring is based on a 47-point checklist covering bonus fairness, payout speed, game variety, mobile experience, customer support, security, and banking options.
We earn affiliate commission when readers sign up via our outbound links. This commission funds the testing and the editorial work — but it does not influence rankings. See the full affiliate disclosure for the details.
Our editorial standards
- Real-money tested. Every review involves three deposits totalling around AU$1,500, four-plus withdrawals, and 240 hours of gameplay across pokies, live dealer, and table games.
- Transparent methodology. Our 47-point checklist is public and applied identically across every casino we review.
- Real pros and cons. If a casino we recommend has a problem (slow weekend support, restrictive withdrawal limit, opaque VIP scheme), we write it down. Hiding negatives erodes trust faster than disclosing them.
- Quarterly re-verification. Bonus terms change. Operators change ownership. Payment-rail performance shifts. We re-test each ranked casino every quarter.
- Responsible-gambling-first. Every page links to BetStop.gov.au and Gambling Help Online. We will never recommend an operator that does not offer deposit limits, loss limits, and self-exclusion.
What we are not
HouseCasino is not a casino. We do not operate gambling services. We do not hold player funds. We do not facilitate deposits or withdrawals. We are a review portal — a media business with an affiliate revenue model.
We are not affiliated with any operator we review. We have no equity in, ownership of, or board representation at any listed casino brand.
