Reviewed byShelly Schiff

In short: EmuCasino is an Aussie-themed online casino launched in 2012 that now serves New Zealand and other international markets with pokies from many studios and Evolution live tables. Its website names no operating company or licence number, and Australia’s ACMA has ordered it blocked since November 2019, so Australians cannot legally play there.


EmuCasino launched in 2012 and built its name as an Aussie-themed casino with a big pokies library from well-known studios. Despite the emu mascot and the Australian slang, it stopped accepting players from Australia at the start of 2020, and its terms still list Australia as a restricted country. Today it serves New Zealand and other international markets.

It offers more than 30 game providers, live casino tables from Evolution, a mix of card, e-wallet and crypto payments. Its weak point is transparency: the site does not clearly name its operating company or licence.

Games

emucasino
EmuCasino’s FAQ lists more than 30 software providers, including Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, NetEnt, Playtech and Evolution. Its own pages quote different totals, from over 1,000 games to over 2,800 pokies, so the exact count is unclear. Either way, the library is large.

You can browse games by theme or by category: Pokies (Australian for video slots), Jackpots, Blackjack, Roulette, Video Poker, Live Casino and Other Games.

Pokies make up most of the lobby, with titles from the big studios alongside smaller ones such as Booming Games and Wazdan. NetEnt games are not available to players in the US, the UK or Canada.

Blackjack and Roulette are available as RNG games as well as live tables. Check each game’s rules, because the number of decks and the zeros on the wheel affect the house edge.

Video Poker covers the standard paytable games. Check whether a game is played against a paytable (video poker) or against a dealer (casino poker), because the strategy is different.

Live Casino tables are supplied by Evolution and include live blackjack, roulette, baccarat and game shows.

Supported Devices and Platforms

EmuCasino runs in mobile and desktop browsers, and no download is needed. There is no app in the official app stores. The mobile site uses the same account and balance as the desktop version.

Banking Methods

EmuCasino accepts Visa, Mastercard, Skrill, Neteller, ecoPayz, UPayCard, Paysafecard, Flexepin, Neosurf and instant banking for deposits. Crypto deposits are also available in Bitcoin, USDT, USDC and DAI, and the terms also mention Ethereum, Litecoin and Bitcoin Cash. According to the FAQ, withdrawals use most of the same methods, plus bank transfer.

Withdrawal times listed in the FAQ:

Under its terms, you can withdraw up to €15,000 per 30 days. Your first withdrawal each month is free, and later ones within 30 days can be charged up to 3.9%. Progressive jackpot wins over $50,000 can take up to 30 working days to pay. You must complete identity verification within 72 hours of registering, so have your documents ready.

Customer Support

EmuCasino offers 24/7 live chat and email support through its help centre. It says emails are usually answered within 4–6 hours, and if no chat agent is available your request is passed to email. The FAQ covers most account, bonus and banking questions.

Responsible Gambling

You can set deposit, bet and loss limits from your account and self-exclude for up to 30 days, or longer by contacting support. A 3-day cooling-off period applies before a self-excluded account can be reopened. The responsible gambling page links to Gamblers Anonymous and Gambling Therapy.

Licensing and Availability

EmuCasino does not name its operating company or a licence number on its website, and its terms and conditions (version 5.1) say only that the site is governed by the law of Anjouan. Third-party casino listings name the operator as Qinrara Management Ltd. with Anjouan licence ALSI-202502009-FI1, but we could not confirm this on a public Anjouan register. In November 2019 the Australian Communications and Media Authority ordered internet providers to block EmuCasino for offering online casino games to Australians, and its domains remain on the ACMA’s list of blocked gambling websites.

EmuCasino does not accept players from Australia, France, the Netherlands and its territories, the United Kingdom, Spain or Cyprus, and its terms say other countries may also be restricted. In 2019 the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) asked internet providers to block EmuCasino because it offered online casino games to Australians, which is prohibited under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001.

Our Verdict

EmuCasino has one of the bigger and better-stocked game lobbies among its peers and solid e-wallet and crypto withdrawals, but its unclear licensing is a real drawback. If you are in an eligible country and comfortable with an offshore casino, it is a reasonable option; if you want regulator-backed protection, look elsewhere.

    Ridiculous site, terribly laid out, confusing and irritating to navigate.. crapola 'no deposit offers' which barely ever win you more than a few cents. Save yourself the anuerysm and avoid registering here

    Let me start off with customer. Service is awful. They are not helpful whatsoever. And the type of games will limit the bet amount per spend to only a very small amount. Which means you can't really get much from it because your bet percent is so low. The games that they offer are kind of weird and just overall very much. Just dislike this casino and how was not very appealing to me.

    I would love to love this casino, but since all the benefits are for New Zealanders, I feel like since they don’t love me equally at least, I shall repay the favor with this review.

    Liked that depositing by crypto is easy and the deposits are processed instantly. Also minimum deposit is $10, not $20 like in most of the rest.

    Problem is that the interface at Emu is a tad glitchy. Sometimes you get 500 Server Error or the page just won't load, and have to try multiple times.

    It’s a pretty fun little casino, my only issue more freebies! Since I don’t really know all that much about paying with crypto. But overall I enjoy the variety of different slots

    Casino accepted me and the address I chose, spent a bunch of time playing my free bonus. Came back at a later date and I was locked out of my account. Very hard to get a hold of anyone to tell me what happened... Finally was told my location v wasn't allowed.. which makes no sense because they initially said it was

    It is was not the worst casino, but definitely falls far from the best. The terms and conditions are a little strange compared to pretty much any US-play casino. It's nice to see a maximum of $100 for a NDB, though.

    They have all the games I love to play but the bonuses always confuse me as there is a lot going on with the website. It feels like quite an old interface and the verification process takes soooooooooo long.

    Solid casino but if you're looking for a no KYC casino, this is definitely not one of them! I read lots of reviews saying that they were but I was required to input all of my information when opening an account. Great game selection though and I love their platform!

    When I first attempted to sign up at EMU Casino awhile back they said I was not allowed due to my jurisdiction or country restriction. Did that change recently? I am excited to play though, the games look pretty fun! I can't wait to try it out now!

      I think the same as you. I like their variety of games and they are excellent but the page itself and its system as it works is a little slow and does not give much confidence to the players

    Made a small deposit to check it out. Was offered bdb freespins after a BTC deposit. Never received them. Couldn't catch a break playing so money went fast. Didn't spend much time here. Might give it another whirl when money not so tight.

    Have played here for two years now. Have made several deposits and no issues. Customer service is always friendly and eager to assist. I also enjoy Emu Casino because I receive great bonuses and promotions. Seems like I am always getting an email from them. Solid, decent casino with many games and options. You won’t be disappointed!

    I used the welcome free spins but didn't win enough to continue to play other games. I'm not a fan of all the complicated rules, and for sure don't want to pay a fee to withdraw any winnings. If they want a fee, they should take it from players' deposits. It seems greedy in my opinion.

    Really like the game selection however unable to play a slew of slots due to error messages prohibiting game play. Customer support is the absolute worst. Live chat with an actual agent vs a bot is non existent, in my experience. I submitted a withdrawal request for $1000 in winnings and have yet to receive any form of notice of acknowledgement. I will update post to let y'all know if cashout was successful.

    After looking over this site and the promos it offeres it seems to me that this casino caters to customers in New Zeland or Canada!!! Strange right? why just Canada why not the USA too? Well, who knows there are so many online casinos these days that not betting on this site sits fine with me.

    I'm still new to this one so my review will require adjustment I'm sure but as of right now it is a good Casino. They offer some free spins to wet your appetite, then they tighten uppretty hard but nothing good is free right!! Good luck

    This casino definitely focuses on customer satisfaction if you deposit with them which is unique. Most casinos offer incentives to get you to invest. So their strategy is great because you can level up with time and they have a great rewards system. They seem good for a new casino / would keep my eye out to see where they are in 6 months.

    I do like emu casino a lot so far. I like the platform. They have a few good bonus that I saw so far. The games load very quickly. Seems like they update the site often. The cash out on the bonuses are very low but thats the only negative I see so far.

    The mobile version is not playable at all. Casino or slots won't fit to screensize. Everything is cramped on just one page. Its just messy and everything is way to small. I had to switch to desktop mode so I could zoom in. I tried on 2 phones with different screens and different browsers.

    I made a withdrawal here twice! One for my deposit and the other after wagering free spins requirements. They could increase the limit of the cashout on the free spins, capped at $20 last i checked. The promotions that are going on at the moment are these wheels that give points and other rewards on a daily basis. The wheel of fortune is much better compared to that bar themed wheel.

    I spent a long time waiting for my withdrawal from Emu, about 2 years ago the site was alot better, now it seems to be having a number of issues from support not understanding simple questions regarding payments, issues with most providers if you live in Ireland, the withdrawal took 4 working days from thursday through tuesday. i would avoid EmuCasino and play somewhere more reputable and safe.

    This used to be one of my go-to casinos. They simply stopped paying out about 2 months ago. I am not complaining about cold cards, but I went from a decent return over 6 months on the same games to a net loss. I know the house always wins but I have not taken a score for weeks!

    This casino is to be avoided at all costs. This casino is clearly using tactics. I have heard from numerous other players that this casino is using insane stalling procedures. People have reached out to me since they saw my posts and I have at least 5 other players telling me they are being messed with. Some stating 10 days and still not verified. This is not a good casino and I highly highly suggest you dont go anywhere near it and it should be totally blacklisted from what I experienced and the things I have heard. My rating is now 0/10

    I earlier gave this casino a 3.7 rating with kind words. It looks like after they get a good rating they read it and think they already got a good compliment so then they can go and act unethical.

    I won $1280 from $100 deposit and submitted my withdraw. I have played here a bit the last few weeks. Well the next week was ridiculous. They had my withdraw pending an entire week. Support would close my chat when I would ask whats going on. Emails all ignored. Finance ignoring me. Support giving me copy and pasted messaged when I would first ask about my money and then just instantly would close chat.

    It made me feel VERY uncomfortable. If I ever won 20k here I would be a nervous wreck as I dont think they would pay.

    Find a better casino guys unless you want to be stressed out whether you will be paid or not. I have been paid my cashout. My first cashout was in about a day. My second cashout...3 days....My third cashout over a week. They hope the player reverses it or frustrated them enough where they just forget it.

    This is a borderline rogue casino in my opinion and will only pay players a few times before they totally rob them

    I have been here and used the site a few times. Just deposited through Ecopayz. They advised that it was rejected. Money was taken out and confirmation was sent. However the allocated bonus was credited.

    Its with finance now. Let's see. I'll give this a 2 for now. Let's see how they resolve this.

    Not one of the best pokies casinos in australia, but they all have heavy legislation to adhere to so they are mostly trustworthy. They are all mostly well run and trusted. I trust this casino but there are better ones to play in Australia IMHO.

    I actually got those 12 spins for signing up ... But was not very happy to see that you needed to wager the winnings on the same slot .... Couldnt chose another slot; and that was sad! Due to that I lost it fast ... Dont know anything bout withdraws for now ... maybe later ;)
