Emu Casino Review

Some Aussie charm

This Australian casino experience was launched in 2012, making it a relative newcomer to the online gambling scene. That said, Emu Casino has rarely put a foot wrong in its short and impressive stint at the top end of the casino entertainment market.

The website is the flagship brand of Emu Group Ltd, a very professional outfit in both appearance and ambition. The company is registered in Malta and also holds a license under the Government of Curacao, meaning that you can be sure that everything is in order when it comes to regulations and legalities.

The website is also independently evaluated by the highly regarded regulatory body, eCOGRA. This basically means that the website is audited on a monthly basis to check that all of its games are compliant with the necessary standards regarding fairness. You can see the monthly reports for yourself if you want the extra reassurance that you won't be taken for a ride by this online casino.

There is a very responsive live chat service and a full range of useful FAQs and support measures in place to ensure that any problems you might have are resolved with haste.
