Does Casiny Casino actually take AUD or do you cop a conversion fee?
Bit of a rookie here so go easy on me 😅 I slapped my first Casiny deposit in last arvo too and only after hitting submit did I wonder if I'd just copped some sneaky conversion fee on top. The balance showed up in what looked like aussie dollars but honestly maybe I'm being dumb, I couldn't tell if it actually settled in AUD or got converted behind the scenes.
Anyone here know if they process in AUD proper for us, or does the card company whack you a forex charge every time? Would rather find out now than after another slap 🙏
New here, soaking it up.
Reel77 mate, welcome to the club of checking AFTER hitting submit, we've all been there 😄 can't tell you off the top of my head whether Casiny bills in AUD proper or skins it through USD and slaps a conversion on ya, so keep an eye on your bank statement, that's where the sneaky fee shows itself. Been caught like that before on offshore joints, few dollars here and there adds up quicker than a dead machine at the RSL eating your fifties.
It's all hit and busted before, folks.
Same boat here 😅 if it does run through USD, does the fee hit on the deposit itself or when you cash out later? 🤔
The fee usually bites on the deposit side first, mate, your bank or card issuer converts whatever currency the casino bills in and slaps their margin on top, so check your statement a couple of days after the slap. Then if they settle withdrawals in something other than AUD you can cop it again coming back. Turned 50 into 5k once and still lost a chunk to conversion, so I always check before the second deposit these days. Ah well, we grind on 😉
I remember the old slots first-hand.
My bank charged me a forex fee on an overseas deposit once, didn't show for days 😬 might be worth a tiny test deposit first before another slap?
Tiny test deposit? Nick, that's like betting 2 a spin to clear a bonus, technically wise but who's got the patience 😅 Reel77, just ring your bank and ask what they bill a foreign merchant at, that answers it in five minutes. Found out the hard way once the statement shows the damage days later, cheeky little hit 💸
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.
