Understanding Our General Terms

At Winshark, we believe in operating with clarity and transparency. Understanding our general terms is a foundational step for all our players. These terms outline the essential conditions for using our platform, ensuring fair play and security for everyone involved.

Eligibility and Account Management

To register and play with us, you must be at least 18 years of age. We are licensed to offer our services within Australia, and as such, require players to provide a valid Australian residential address. We adhere to a strict one-account-per-player policy. This measure is in place to protect the integrity of our promotions and to prevent misuse of the platform. Attempting to create or operate multiple accounts may lead to the closure of all associated accounts and forfeiture of any funds.

Payment Obligations and Game Availability

When you make a deposit, you are confirming your understanding and agreement to the terms associated with that transaction. Similarly, when you place a bet, you are acknowledging that the outcome is subject to the rules of the specific game and our general terms. Our game library is extensive, featuring a wide variety of pokies and table games from reputable providers. While we strive for continuous availability, games may occasionally be unavailable due to technical maintenance or updates.

Provisions Against Misuse and Fraud

We maintain robust measures to detect and prevent fraudulent activity, including collusion, use of stolen funds, or any other form of dishonest behaviour. Any such activity will be investigated thoroughly, and may result in account suspension, closure, and the reporting of such activities to relevant authorities. We reserve the right to void any winnings and confiscate any funds associated with fraudulent activity.

These general terms provide an overview of key aspects of playing at Winshark. However, they do not cover every detail. Our full General Terms and Conditions are the binding legal document governing your use of our services. We encourage you to read them carefully. Please note that these terms may be updated periodically, and it is your responsibility to stay informed of any changes. The version available on our website at the time of your activity is always the applicable one.

Understanding Our Bonus Terms

We want you to feel confident when engaging with our promotions. While each bonus offer has its own specific terms, a set of global rules applies across all of them. These are designed to ensure fair play for everyone and maintain the integrity of our offers. We encourage you to review these general conditions to understand how our bonuses function.

Wagering Requirements and Game Contributions

Most bonuses, including welcome packages and reload offers, come with wagering requirements. This means you will need to wager the bonus amount, or bonus and deposit amount, a specified number of times before you can withdraw any winnings derived from it. For example, a bonus with 35x wagering on the bonus amount requires you to bet 35 times the bonus value. Different game types contribute differently towards meeting these requirements. Pokies generally contribute 100%, while table games may contribute a smaller percentage or not contribute at all. Always check the specific bonus terms for the exact contribution rates.

Restricted Games and Maximum Bets

To ensure fair play and prevent bonus abuse, certain games may be excluded from bonus wagering, and a maximum bet limit usually applies while you are using bonus funds. Playing restricted games or exceeding the maximum bet amount (which is typically AUD $7.50) while wagering can result in the forfeiture of your bonus and any associated winnings. These restrictions are clearly outlined in each bonus's specific terms.

Bonus Abuse and Consequences

We define bonus abuse as any attempt to exploit our bonus offers for personal gain in a manner not intended by the promotion. This can include, but is not limited to, placing bets that are disproportionately large compared to the bonus amount, using bonus funds to play high-risk games with the sole intention of meeting wagering requirements, or creating multiple accounts to claim the same bonus. Engaging in bonus abuse may lead to the closure of your account and the confiscation of any funds held within it.
