Golden Riviera, which was established in 2001, aims to show players the finer things in life. It wants to do so by offering more than 600 games, all with great bonuses and massive jackpots. Rather than spend thousands of dollars on a flight to Las Vegas, you can take Vegas on your journeys with you, and it’s all thanks to Golden Riviera.

Software
Golden Riviera uses a desktop program to do all of its gaming. Once you sign up, just download the program to get started. The program only works on Windows platforms, but if you’re gaming on a Mac, don’t lose hope – there’s a lite version of the site. The lite version of the site operates inside the browser and doesn’t require a download. There’s around 300 games available on the lite version. Even though there are fewer games, you still have a great chance to win the progressive jackpot, which usually sits at several million dollars.

If your primary Internet connection is through a mobile device, that’s not a problem. Golden Riviera offers apps for both iOS and Android devices, so you’ll be able to game on everything from your iPod and iPhone to your Samsung Galaxy smartphone and Google Nexus tablet.

Bonuses
At Golden Riviera, new players have the potential to earn up to AU$1,400 for free by making several deposits thanks to their three-tier deposit bonus offer. Here’s how it works:

• First deposit – Golden Riviera will match by 100%, up to AU$150
• Second deposit – Golden Riviera will match by up to 25%, up to AU$500
• Third deposit – Golden Riviera will match by 50%, up to AU$750

Golden Riviera also values its customers and wants to reward them with their Reward Lounge program. The Reward Lounge has four tiers – Green, Silver, Gold, and Platinum. The concept is fairly simple: the more you wager, the more C-Bucks you earn. These C-Bucks can then be turned into bonuses, spins, or free credits. Here’s a look at the levels of Golden Riviera’s rewards program.

As we mentioned earlier, Golden Riviera prides itself on having more than 600 games available for Australian gamers to play. These games include:

• Baccarat
• Blackjack
• Craps
• Pokies
• Roulette
• Video Poker

Each game has multiple variations or themes. Their selection of pokies is astounding – there’s several hundred available. These include 3 and 5-Reel Pokies, Pub Pokies, and Progressive Jackpots. The Progressive Jackpot usually holds several million dollars, which is more than enough to completely change anyone’s life.

Deposit and Withdrawal Methods
Golden Riviera has several deposit methods for its Australian gamers. These methods include the traditional credit and debit card, Click2Pay, ClickandBuy, Direct Bank Transfer, Skrill, and UseMyBank. If you don’t see your preferred method listed, contact Golden Riviera and see if it’s supported.

Of the methods supported, each has a unique wait time when it comes to withdrawing your funds. For credit and debit cards, there’s a 4 to 7 day hold, while a Direct Bank Transfer takes anywhere from 1-5 days. If you’re using a third party, the wait could be a bit shorter. For example, Click2Pay takes 3-5 days, while ClickandBuy, Skrill, and UseMyBank all take 2-3 days.

At Golden Riviera, all deposits must be in excess of AU$50, and you must provide proof of identity. This means that you’ll have to provide a copy of your ID, a utility bill, and copies of the front and back of any credit cards registered with Golden Riviera. Failure to provide proper documentation could resort in your account being locked out and all winnings voided.
