Numbered sites: why RocketPlay's address changes, and how to tell the operator's from a copy

Why there is a number

The Interactive Gambling Act 2001 prohibits offering online casino games to people in Australia. ACMA, the federal regulator, asks internet providers to block sites that breach it, and publishes the list of blocked domains. rocketplay.com is on that list, along with further RocketPlay names. Each time an address is blocked, the operator moves its Australian version to a new one, and the simplest way to do that is to add or change a number. That is the whole mechanism. rocketplay32 is not a version number or a server; it is the address that was not yet on the list when we checked.

What happens to old numbers

Two things, and you cannot tell which from the name. Some old addresses stay in the operator’s hands and redirect to the current one; that is what we saw with lower numbers we tried. Others lapse, and a lapsed domain with the brand in its name is exactly what a copy-maker registers. A third group was never the operator’s at all: names with the brand spelled slightly wrong, or with a country attached, built to catch searches like the ones that bring people to this page. Some of those carry their own registration forms and cashiers.

The four checks

1. The footer names the licence and gives a number. The operator’s footer on other addresses names a Curaçao licence with a number. On the Australian address we opened on 29 September 2026, the footer showed trust seals and an eCOGRA link but not that line, which is why this check is not the only one.
2. The licence seal opens the regulator’s validator, and the validator lists the address you are on. A copy can paste the seal image; it cannot make the regulator’s page list its domain.
3. The address is the one our button opens, not one from a pop-up, an SMS or a message. We check the address on every update and record the date at the top of the page.
4. The cashier shows card deposits from $25 with a $6,000 cap, the figures on our board from the operator’s payments page. A copy rarely bothers to match limits.

A page that passes all four is the operator’s. A page that fails one is not proven to be a copy, but it is not a place to enter a card number until the failed check is explained.

What we do and do not publish

We do not publish a list of mirrors or a table of which numbers are “working today”. Lists like that age within weeks and end up carrying copies. What we publish is one address, behind the button, with the date we checked it, and the four checks so you can do the same on any address that reaches you. If the operator moves, the button moves with the next update of this site; if you find it pointing somewhere that fails a check, the contact page is the way to tell us.

After the address: the rest of the first deposit

Once the address passes, the order is the one on the sign-up page: register, deposit from $25 by card, upload verification documents that day, wager the deposit once. The withdrawals page has the lanes and limits for money out. And the is it legit page is where the licence, the ACMA list and the law are explained in full.
