The federal rule applies in Canberra and the ACT
Online casino services cannot be offered to a person physically present in the Australian Capital Territory. A Canberra-targeted landing page or an advertisement mentioning Australian events cannot establish permission. Readers should avoid submitting identity data merely to see whether an offshore registration form proceeds.
- AACT covered federally
- BLocal ads are not approval
- CDo not test eligibility with ID

If the issue involves an advertisement, preserve where and when it appeared; if it involves payment, contact the financial provider quickly because response windows may be limited.
