Slots Palace has been blocked in Australia since 15 February 2024, when ACMA asked Australian internet providers to cut access to it. Two Slots Palace addresses are on ACMA’s published blocked list (slotspalace1.com and slotspalace5.com, checked 16 October 2026). That is why this page is no longer a recommendation: it is a status review covering the block, your options as an existing player and the alternatives we have rechecked.

No sugar-coating this one. Our old Slots Palace review presented it as a Curaçao-licensed pick for Aussies. None of that matters once the regulator has blocked a site, so the rating and links are gone and the page now sticks to dated facts.

The casinos in the box at the top of this page are the alternatives we rechecked in October 2026: each accepts Australians and none is on ACMA’s blocked list. They are offshore sites without an Australian licence, so read their terms before you sign up. If gambling is costing you more than you planned, Gambling Help Online is free and confidential on 1800 858 858, 24/7.

Why ACMA Blocked Slots Palace

Australia does not license online casinos. Under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (IGA), offering online casino games or online pokies to people in Australia is an offence for the operator, and advertising them is banned as well. The Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA) enforces the Act, and one of its main tools is website blocking: it asks Australian internet providers to block sites it has found in breach. ACMA reported 1,822 sites blocked since November 2019, as of 24 September 2026.

Slots Palace was part of the batch ACMA announced on 15 February 2024. The same release also covered SG Casino, which we used to review as well. The block is not new: it dates back to February 2024, and our review should have caught up with it long before now.

A Site That Opens Is Not a Site That Is Allowed

Blocking is carried out by internet providers, not by the casino, so it does not catch every connection. If you see ACMA’s “website blocked” page, the domain is blocked. If you do not, your provider may not have applied the block yet, or you may have reached a mirror that is not on the list. Neither makes the casino legal to offer its games in Australia.

Do not use a VPN to get around a block or a casino’s country rules. Offshore casino terms routinely treat a disguised location as a breach and let the casino keep any winnings and close the account.

Already Have a Slots Palace Account? What to Do

If you signed up before the block and still have money there, focus on getting it out cleanly and on keeping records.

  1. Stop topping up. Every new deposit adds to what you could lose if the account is frozen.
  2. Screenshot everything: balance, active bonuses, pending withdrawals and your transaction history, with the date showing.
  3. Check whether a bonus is running. Withdrawing during wagering normally forfeits the bonus and its winnings, and some casinos block the withdrawal altogether. Ask support in writing to remove it if you just want your cash.
  4. Complete verification once, properly. Expect to send photo ID, proof of address and proof of payment. Send clear copies, keep the originals and note the date.
  5. Mind the withdrawal caps. Our old review recorded limits of from A$1,050 a month at VIP level 1 up to A$30,000 at level 5. Check the current figure in the cashier before you request a large amount, because offshore casinos change these without notice, and a big balance may come out in instalments.
  6. Request the withdrawal in writing through live chat or email, and save every transcript.
  7. Know the dispute route. No Australian regulator, ombudsman or tribunal can order an offshore casino to pay. Our old review named a licence from Curaçao; if the casino still shows a licence in its footer, that regulator’s complaints process is the only formal route left. If you paid by card, ask your bank about its dispute process, but do not expect a chargeback to succeed on gambling losses you authorised.

If chasing a balance is affecting your sleep, money or relationships, call Gambling Help Online on 1800 858 858. BetStop, the national self-exclusion register, covers licensed Australian wagering providers only, so ask Slots Palace support to close your account as well.

Our Old Slots Palace Review, Corrected

Our earlier review made the following points. We list them so returning readers can see what has changed, not as a current description of Slots Palace, and we have not reverified them for this update.

  • Operator: MioMedia
  • Licence: Curaçao
  • Launched: 2020
  • Welcome offer: 100% up to A$750 at 35x deposit plus bonus
  • Withdrawal limits: from A$1,050 a month at VIP level 1 up to A$30,000 at level 5
  • Verdict: Presented it as a Curaçao-licensed pick for Aussies

The licence point is the one that needs correcting. A licence from Curaçao lets a casino operate under that jurisdiction’s rules; it does not allow it to offer online casino games to people in Australia, and ACMA’s block applies whatever licence the casino holds.

How We Check Casinos for Australians Now

A casino now reaches our Australian list only if all of these hold on the day we check:

  1. None of its domains is on ACMA’s published blocked-websites list.
  2. The brand is not named in any of ACMA’s blocking releases.
  3. Its Australian lobby loads from an Australian connection and Australia is not on its restricted-country list.
  4. There is no “confirm you are outside Australia” declaration or similar trap in its pages.

OscarSpin, Nine Casino, Jet4Bet and Goldex passed those checks in October 2026. They are offshore with no Australian licence, so read the full reviews and terms first. Our safer casino guide covers the warning signs, and the Australian reviews hub shows the status of every brand we have rechecked.

Slots Palace FAQ

Has ACMA blocked Slots Palace?

Yes. ACMA named Slots Palace in its media release of 15 February 2024, and 2 of its domains are on the published blocked list (checked 16 October 2026).

Can Australians legally play at Slots Palace?

The IGA offence belongs to the operator, not the player. But you have no Australian regulator to help in a dispute, access can disappear at any time, and the casino’s own terms may let it void winnings if you are in a restricted location.

Can I still get my money out of Slots Palace?

Stop depositing, screenshot your balance, cancel any active bonus, complete verification and request the withdrawal in writing, keeping within the cashier limits. Save every support transcript.

Is Slots Palace licensed?

Our old review gave the licence as Curaçao, with the operator named as MioMedia. We have not rechecked that for this update, and no offshore licence makes online casino games legal to offer in Australia.

What are the alternatives to Slots Palace for Australians?

OscarSpin, Nine Casino, Jet4Bet and Goldex accepted Australians and were not blocked or named by ACMA when we checked in October 2026. All are offshore with no Australian licence, so read their reviews and terms first.
