ACCOUNT-FUNDED PLAY
What Are Real Money Pokies?
Real money pokies are online slot games used with an account balance that has monetary value. Depending on the account and current offer, that balance may contain deposited cash, eligible cash credit, promotional bonus credit or more than one type of balance.
The active balance matters because cash and promotional credit can follow different rules. A deposit may have its own turnover requirement, while a claimed promotion may add eligible-game, expiry and maximum-withdrawal conditions.
This page focuses on account balances, deposits, turnover, verification and withdrawals. General pokies categories and slot mechanics are covered separately in the SANDS33 online pokies and online slots guides.
Promotion-Based Credit
May include turnover, expiry, eligible-game and withdrawal limits.
Verification May Apply
Account or payment information may need to be confirmed.
BALANCE INFORMATION
Cash Balance vs Bonus Balance
Do not assume every displayed credit follows the same withdrawal rules. Review the balance source before starting a session.
01
CASH VALUE
Cash Balance
A cash balance generally comes from deposited funds or another eligible cash-credit source. It can still be subject to current deposit turnover, account checks and withdrawal requirements.
- Check the source of the balance.
- Confirm whether deposit turnover remains.
- Review the current withdrawal minimum.
- Keep the registered payment details accurate.
02
PROMOTIONAL VALUE
Bonus Balance
A bonus balance comes from a promotion. It may only be used under the offer's displayed conditions and may not follow the same rules as deposited cash.
- Check the required turnover.
- Review eligible games or providers.
- Check the expiry or claim period.
- Review the maximum withdrawal condition.
IMPORTANT
More Than One Balance May Be Displayed
When cash and bonus credit are both present, confirm which balance is being used and which promotion conditions remain active before continuing.

ACCOUNT PROCESS
How to Prepare for Real Money Play
Complete the account, payment and balance checks before using deposited funds or promotional credit.

Check turnover, promotion eligibility, account verification and withdrawal requirements.
WAGERING REQUIREMENTS
How Turnover Affects Real Money Withdrawals
Turnover is the required amount of eligible play that must be completed under a deposit or promotion rule. A balance can be visible in the account while still being unavailable for withdrawal because turnover remains incomplete.
Deposit turnover and bonus turnover are not always the same. A promotion may also limit which games contribute, how much they contribute and the highest amount that can be withdrawn.
Check Current Promotion Conditions

18+ RESPONSIBLE PLAY
Treat Real Money Play as Paid Entertainment
Pokies outcomes are uncertain. Depositing more, increasing a bet or using a bonus does not guarantee a win or successful withdrawal.
Use only disposable entertainment money, decide the session budget in advance and stop when the planned money or time limit is reached. Do not cancel a withdrawal only to chase previous losses.
