Prohibited online gambling content under the IGA includes services that are often described as 'online casinos' and usually involve using the Internet to play games of chance, or games of mixed chance and skill with real money. Exceptions exist for licensed services that provide online wagering, sports betting and lotteries. The IGA makes it an offence to provide certain gambling services to a customer physically present in Australia via the Internet. Online gambling in Australia is regulated by the Interactive Gambling Act 2001 (the IGA).
