Though many mobile casinos out there are happy to get Australian slots players through the doors, our Aussie readers know that doesn’t always cut it. Having to use the US currency or the Euro, translate that into Australian dollars and then take the heavy currency exchange fees usually leaves players with less winnings than expected.
It’s annoying and unnecessary when so many great casinos, such as Microgaming’s Go Wild and the wonderfully quirky Vera & John mobile casinos take the Aussie currency.
Well, a brand new casino has joined the ranks of what we deem a very decent Australian mobile casino. And it’s none other than Leo Vegas.
So is it only the Australian Dollar they added?
That, and they’ve made a few changes across their casino site. If you read our Leo Vegas casino review you’ll see that they are generally a favourite mobile casino around these parts. The reason being, they treat every player well and have a huge selection of some of our favourite and most popular mobile casino games.
However, nothing makes Aussie players feel at home than a little familiarity. The slot games are not the Americanised ‘slot machines’, but are under the more familiar ‘mobile pokies’ or ‘classic pokies’.
All the text across the casino site has been changed to be easier to read and all the currency for their casino bonuses, promotions and in game winnings uses the Australian dollar.
Aussie’s can now enjoy 200% bonus + 200 free spins
The Leo Vegas welcome bonus is now more appealing for new players. You can get a casino no deposit bonus of 20 free spins on a favourite NetEnt slot Starburst. You can then get 4 reload bonuses giving you a total of AUD$700 in bonus money, plus, once you’ve made you’re first deposit (which can be as little as AU$10) you’ll get an extra 180 free spins on Starburst. Not bad hey?
Sign up, deposit and get your 200 free spins bonus at one of the best Australian mobile casinos online.
Deposit, play, withdraw…
Obviously, if you can deposit using Aussie dollars, you can also play all their 160+ mobile pokies in the same currency. The only downside however, is that as Leo Vegas mobile casino has a Maltese licence, the bank transfer is from a European bank, so there are still, sometimes, small bank fees. You can get around those by using Neteller or Skrill e-wallets.
So no downsides?
The biggest downside we can see is that the customer service is still located back in Europe, so though it’s 24 hours the time difference shouldn’t be a problem, the phone numbers are to UK and Sweden. So, not cheap if you have an emergency and want to call from your cell phone.
Still, the email service is good and the live chat on the online website is excellent. You just have to think twice as to whether the phone emergency is that urgent that it can’t wait till you switch your laptop on.
Equally, this new Australian mobile casino is instant play only – so no download needed – which we know many of our Aussie mobile pokies readers prefer.
Is it worth registering?
That depends on whether you like their casino slots games. Though they do have some of the best Microgaming pokies such as Thunderstruck & Mega Moolah, it’s a small selection at best.
Leo Vegas put’s a huge focus on their very popular NetEnt games, with the likes of Twin Spin and Gonzo’s Quest usually making their popular list. But they are constantly adding new software, with Yggdrasil Gaming recently joining one of 8 mobile casino software providers and two new rumoured to be added in the next few months.
Add an easy to use smartphone and tablet platform that works brilliantly on most iPhones, iPads, and Android phones and tablets, and you have more than one reason to check them out.
