Terms of Use for an Australian Gambling Information Site
Last updated: 8 October 2026
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the website operated at acritud.com (the "Site"), published by Australia Betting Info. By accessing, browsing or otherwise using the Site, you accept these Terms in full. If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, you must stop using the Site immediately.
1. Nature of the Site
Australia Betting Info is an informational resource dedicated to gambling-related topics, including news, guides, and general information about wagering on sports and racing events. The Site is not a gambling operator and does not provide, operate or facilitate any gambling services. We do not accept bets, hold player funds, process deposits or withdrawals, or offer any games of chance or wagering products of any kind.
Where the Site discusses gambling-related subjects, it does so for informational purposes only. Nothing on the Site constitutes an invitation, inducement or offer to gamble.
2. Legal Position on Online Gambling in Australia
Visitors located in Australia should be aware of the following important legal context:
- Under the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth), the provision of online casino games (including online pokies/slots, roulette, blackjack and online poker) to customers in Australia is prohibited. It is unlawful for such services to be offered to Australian residents.
- Licensed operators in Australia are limited to wagering on sports and racing, and only where they hold an appropriate licence from a relevant Australian regulator, such as the Northern Territory Racing Commission, or a state-based authority including the Victorian Gambling and Casino Control Commission, Liquor & Gaming NSW, the Office of Liquor and Gaming Regulation (Queensland), Consumer and Business Services (South Australia), the Tasmanian Liquor and Gaming Commission, the ACT Gambling and Racing Commission, or the Department of Racing, Gaming and Liquor (Western Australia).
- Offshore online casinos are not legal or licensed options for Australian players. The Site does not present them as such.
- Under Australian law, certain payment methods are prohibited for online wagering: credit cards and cryptocurrency cannot be used to fund online gambling accounts. Where the Site discusses deposit options for licensed Australian wagering operators, the only lawful routes are debit cards, bank transfer, PayID/Osko and BPAY.
- Online in-play (live) sports betting is banned in Australia except where placed by telephone or within licensed retail wagering venues.
- Synthetic lotteries (betting on the outcome of lottery draws) are not a lawful online service in Australia.
We do not publish advertisements for, or links to, prohibited or unlicensed interactive gambling services, and we do not knowingly assist any person to access such services.
3. Age Restriction
You must be 18 years of age or older to use this Site. In some Australian jurisdictions, a higher age may apply to certain licensed gambling activities; you are responsible for knowing and complying with the age requirements that apply to you. If you are under the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, you must not use the Site.
4. Responsible Gambling
Gambling can be addictive and may cause harm. If gambling is affecting your wellbeing, finances or relationships, help is available. Australian residents may register with BetStop, the National Self-Exclusion Register, which requires all licensed wagering operators to close their accounts and cease all marketing to registered individuals. We support responsible gambling initiatives and encourage anyone experiencing gambling-related harm to seek assistance from appropriate support services.
5. User Responsibility
Your use of the Site and any decisions you make based on its content are entirely your own responsibility. You acknowledge that:
- All content on the Site is provided for general information only and does not constitute legal, financial or professional advice.
- You are solely responsible for ensuring that your use of any gambling service complies with all laws applicable to you, including the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 and any state or territory legislation.
- We do not accept liability for any loss or damage arising from decisions you make in connection with information published on the Site.
6. Affiliate Disclosure
The Site may contain links to third-party websites, including links to licensed wagering operators. Some of these links are affiliate links, which means Australia Betting Info may receive a commission or other form of compensation if you click on the link and subsequently open an account or transact with that third party. This never affects the content we publish, the rankings we produce or the price you pay, and it does not make us a party to any wagering transaction. We only ever reference or link to services that are lawful in the relevant market; for Australian visitors this means licensed Australian sports and race wagering operators, never online casinos.
7. Intellectual Property
All content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos and layout — is the property of Australia Betting Info or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws. You may not reproduce, republish or redistribute Site content without prior written permission, except for brief quotations with attribution and a link back to the Site.
8. External Links
We are not responsible for the content, accuracy, availability or practices of any third-party websites accessible from the Site. Links are provided for convenience only, and visiting a linked website is at your own risk. Inclusion of a link does not imply endorsement of everything published on the destination website.
9. Prohibited Use
You agree not to use the Site in any way that breaches applicable law, including using the Site to promote, advertise or facilitate prohibited or unlicensed interactive gambling services to persons in Australia, or to send marketing materials to persons registered with BetStop.
10. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Australia, with particular reference to the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (Cth) and the regulatory framework administered by the Australian Communications and Media Authority (ACMA), the Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) and the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC).
11. Changes to These Terms
