The Pokies 114 — Rules & Terms

Introduction and Our Approach

Welcome to the official Rules page for The Pokies 114. We tested our policies and reviewed real-world account flows to ensure clarity, fairness and regulatory compliance. Our results show that transparency is critical for players: this page sets out the rules that apply when you use The Pokies 114 gaming platform from registration to withdrawal and dispute resolution.

These rules are legally binding between you (the player) and The Pokies 114 (the operator). By creating an account you accept these terms, so please read them in full. If you disagree with any part, do not continue to use the service.

General Terms

We operate under the legal framework we publish and in accordance with applicable gaming regulation. Our company registration details and regulatory status are maintained as part of our compliance program. We reserve the right to modify these Rules when required for customer service reasons, to comply with laws or to reflect regulatory guidance. Changes will be published on our platform.

1. These Rules apply across all devices: mobile, desktop and other internet-enabled devices.
2. By registering an account you agree that you are bound by these Rules and any related policies or notifications we provide.
3. We may update these Rules from time to time; significant changes will be communicated to active players by means we determine appropriate.
4. We are committed to operating according to regulatory standards and expect players to comply with local laws. You must verify that online gambling is legal in your jurisdiction before using our services.

Eligibility and Responsible Play

We tested account acceptance processes and age checks to ensure robust protection. The following eligibility and responsible gambling rules apply:

• Players must be at least the legal gambling age in their country of residence.
• Players must not be from jurisdictions where online gambling is prohibited.
• Accounts must be registered in the real name of the player; false details are grounds for account closure and forfeiture of winnings.
• Players must not be self-excluded from gambling services or otherwise barred from participating.
• We reserve the right to request proof of identity, age and address at any time and to limit access until verification is complete.

Opening Your Account

Our account opening process is straightforward but thorough. During testing we found that providing clear guidance and prompt support significantly reduces delays in verification.

1. When registering you will be asked for accurate personal information including full name, date of birth, email and phone number.
2. We may ask for documentation to confirm identity and address; acceptable documents include government-issued ID, utility bills and bank statements.
3. Account details must be kept up to date. You can update contact details in your profile or by contacting support.
4. We may restrict or suspend accounts if information appears false, incomplete or inconsistent with our verification checks.

Deposits and Payment Methods

Depositing funds is fast and secure. In our tests we measured common deposit methods and typical posting times. Always check the payment method limits displayed in your account.

Withdrawals — Processing, Limits and Conditions

We tested withdrawal scenarios across common methods to verify timelines and compliance checks. Below we set out the rules and typical processing expectations.

1. We do not charge withdrawal fees, but your financial institution may apply fees or foreign exchange charges.
2. Withdrawals may be subject to verification checks, including identity checks, source-of-funds checks and documentation review.
3. If a withdrawal is returned by your payment provider, we will contact you and provide alternative options where possible.
4. Certain payment methods have wagering requirements attached before withdrawals are allowed; these requirements will be displayed when you deposit.

Wagering Requirements, Bonuses and Promotions

Bonuses and promotions enhance play but carry conditions. In our testing we examined common bonus misuse patterns and strengthened rules accordingly to protect both players and the platform.

• Bonuses and promotional offers are subject to specific terms which form part of these Rules.
• Only one account per person is permitted unless we explicitly approve multiple accounts in writing.
• Abuse of bonus offers, including creating duplicate accounts to claim multiple promotions, will lead to cancellation of bonuses and voiding of winnings.
• Certain games may be excluded from bonus play; games that contribute to wagering requirements will be clearly listed in each promotion.
• Using automated devices, bots, collusion or strategies designed solely to exploit bonus conditions is prohibited and will result in forfeiture of winnings.

Game Play, Fairness and Malfunction

We work with independent game providers and auditors to ensure fairness. We also maintain systems to detect irregular play patterns.

1. If a game malfunctions, we reserve the right to void affected bets and, where appropriate, return funds. Exploiting a malfunction is prohibited.
2. We use industry-standard RNGs (random number generators) and audited payout reports. Periodic audits are part of our compliance program.
3. Any wins paid in error due to software or systems failures may be reclaimed by us. We will investigate and communicate clearly with affected players.

Prohibited Conduct

To preserve a safe, fair environment the following conduct is prohibited:

• Collusion, sharing of accounts, or coordinated play to exploit the system.
• Use of unauthorized automated scripts, bots or third-party tools to manipulate gameplay.
• Providing false or misleading documentation during verification.
• Attempting to launder funds through the site or structure deposits to avoid detection.

Breaches, Account Suspension and Termination

We take breaches seriously. When we detect potential breaches we investigate thoroughly. Our enforcement measures are designed to be proportionate and to protect genuine customers.

1. If you breach these Rules we may suspend your account and withhold funds while we investigate.
2. Where we identify clear abuse, fraud or criminal activity we reserve the right to close accounts, confiscate winnings and report to relevant authorities.
3. We will provide a record of decisions and the reasons where reasonably possible, and you may be offered the opportunity to provide documentation or explanations.
4. Any funds held during an investigation will be treated in accordance with our obligations and prevailing law.

Privacy, Data and KYC

We tested data handling practices and our results indicate that timely KYC checks reduce fraud and speed up withdrawals. We collect and process personal data to:

• Verify identity, age and address.
• Prevent fraud, money laundering and other criminal activity.
• Process deposits and withdrawals and communicate about your account.
• Comply with legal and regulatory obligations.

We store data securely and will only retain it for as long as necessary to meet legal, regulatory and business requirements. Your rights regarding personal data are respected and you may contact support for data access requests.

Dispute Resolution and Complaints

We aim to resolve disputes quickly and fairly. Our approach is:

1. Contact our customer support team with details of the dispute and any supporting documentation.
2. We will investigate and provide a response within a reasonable time. Complex cases, particularly those requiring third-party audits, may take longer.
3. If you remain unsatisfied you may escalate the complaint using the escalation routes we publish in our account support centre. We will cooperate with relevant regulatory dispute resolution services where applicable.

Responsible Gambling Tools and Support

We take responsible gambling seriously. We tested the effectiveness of player tools and found the following measures help reduce harm:

• Deposit limits and spend controls that players can set themselves.
• Session reminders and loss limits to help players stay within budgets.
• Self-exclusion and cooling-off periods available on request.
• Signposting to independent help organisations and support services for problem gambling.

How We Test and Enforce These Rules

Our compliance and risk teams continuously monitor platform activity. We run internal tests and audits with game providers and third parties to verify:

• Game fairness and RNG integrity.
• Payment flows and anti-money laundering controls.
• Effectiveness of KYC processes and verification turnaround times.
• Detection of abusive behaviour, collusion or bot usage.

Where we identify weaknesses we implement corrective actions and update player-facing rules to prevent recurrence.

Key Rules at a Glance

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

What happens during identity verification?

We ask for government ID and proof of address documents. During our testing we found average verification times range from a few hours to 72 hours depending on the documents provided and workload. Providing clear, high-quality scans speeds up the process.

Can I use someone else's card to deposit?

No. You must use payment instruments registered in your name unless we have explicitly agreed otherwise in writing. Using third-party cards exposes you to delays, potential chargebacks and account suspension.

Why was my withdrawal delayed or refused?

Common reasons include pending verification, insufficient playthrough of deposited funds, mismatch of payment details or a security review. If a withdrawal is refused we will explain why and how you can resolve the issue.

What counts as bonus abuse?

Bonus abuse includes creating multiple accounts, colluding to meet wagering requirements, using automated strategies to exploit bonuses and using excluded games to meet playthrough conditions. We monitor for patterns that indicate abuse and will void related winnings.

How will I be notified of changes to these Rules?

We will publish updates on our platform and, where appropriate, notify affected players by email or account message. It is your responsibility to review changes when notified.
