About our VegasNow guide
We are an independent guide to the VegasNow brand for Australian players, not the casino operator. Here is what that means, how we test, and where our funding comes from.
What VegasNow.net is, and what it isn't
This site is an independent guide to the VegasNow brand, written for Australian players. We are not the operator, we do not hold your money, and we cannot process a deposit, a withdrawal or a bonus. What we do is document the casino in depth, the lobby, the banking methods and how quickly each one really pays, the bonus terms in full, and the licence it runs under, so you can judge whether it suits you.
The task we set ourselves is to keep verifiable fact apart from opinion. When we quote a figure, a minimum deposit, a wagering multiple, a clearance time, it is something we have checked, not copied from a promotion. When we give a view, such as the welcome package offering good value, we say outright that it is a judgement and show the reasoning that sits behind it.
We are also frank about the trade-offs, because an honest guide has no choice. VegasNow holds a Curaçao licence (company 160603), not an Australian one; table and live games weight low toward bonus wagering; and your first withdrawal calls for a one-off identity check. None of that is buried under the positives, you will find it on the licensing and withdrawals pages, stated as plainly as the strengths.
How we test, and where the money comes from
We do not review off a brochure. Our method is to fund a real account and use it: we test each deposit method end to end, time withdrawals per channel rather than repeating a marketing promise, read every bonus term down to the max-bet and game-weighting rules, and check the licence against the official register rather than taking a badge on trust. When the casino alters its terms, we go back and re-check instead of leaving a stale page standing.
On money, we will not pretend the site runs on goodwill. VegasNow.net is funded by affiliate commissions, if you follow a link from here and sign up, we may earn a commission at no cost to you. We disclose that openly, and our editorial policy spells out the rule that follows: commission never changes a score, a warning or a recommendation. The caveats on these pages are here precisely because we will not soften them to win a sign-up.
That is the whole basis for trusting what you read here. We test with our own money, keep the affiliate relationship out in the open, and set the weaknesses next to the strengths so you can weigh them yourself. The content is written for an 18-plus audience and carries responsible-gambling guidance throughout, because gambling is entertainment and not a way to make money. The pages are written by Samuel Thomas.
About this guide
A few questions readers tend to raise about who we are.
Are you VegasNow casino?
No. We are an independent guide to the VegasNow brand. We do not run the casino, hold accounts or process payments, for anything account-related you deal with the operator directly.
How do you earn your revenue?
Through affiliate commissions. If you register via a link here, we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. It never shifts a score, a warning or a recommendation.
How do you put the casino to the test?
We fund a real account and actually use it, testing each deposit method, timing withdrawals by channel, reading every bonus term and checking the licence against the official register. We go back and re-check when terms change.
Do you only put up the good points?
No. We set the trade-offs out plainly, that VegasNow is Curaçao-licensed instead of Australian, that table games weight low toward wagering, and that the first withdrawal calls for verification.
Who produces the content?
