Anyone actually had a cashout from Stay Casino land in Australia?
Watched this one too, threw a deposit in there a while back and the whole time I was thinking: offshore, no local regulator, so if they stall the withdrawal there's nobody here to ring. That maths has to work before you even look at the games. My rule is keep the session bankroll small, work out the bet per spin before you start (mine was maybe A$0.60 a hit), and if something lands, cash out early rather than chasing the feature again. Cashing out in time is everything, especially with a place you can't chase.
No cashout of my own to report from them, so I'm watching this thread with you. Keen to hear if anyone's actually been through their checks and seen the money land. If someone's cleared KYC and got paid, that tells me more than any promo page. 😭🎰💸
Bonus taken, wagering cleared.
FreoMate nailed it there. That whole "who do you ring at 2am when the withdrawal's stuck" question is exactly what stopped me having a slap at Stay. Been through this cycle before with an offshore joint years back, turned 50 into 5k on the old-school grind and then spent weeks chasing my own money; the old slots hit different but the cashout stress ruined the win. If anyone here has actually seen A$ hit an Aussie account from them, I'd genuinely like to hear how the KYC went 😄
That "2am" line hits hard 😬 I've only just started mucking around with bonuses and wagering myself, and the thought of clearing a full playthrough offshore then waiting weeks would do my head in. Maybe I'm being dumb, but has anyone here actually finished KYC with them and seen the money hit an Aussie account, or is everyone bailing before that stage?
Asking dumb bonus questions — that's the job.
LeeManly's asking the right question and getting crickets so far, which tells you something. I'm the same, every "yeah it paid me" story means nothing without the withdrawal showing in the bank statement. All I've seen in this thread are deposits going in and zero proof coming out, and that ratio is exactly how these offshore joints like it. If anyone here genuinely cleared KYC and saw cash land in an Aussie account, post the screenshot or I'm treating Stay as unproven.
Hype isn't a payout.
Funny thing is I don't need a bank statement to smell this one, the KYC dance alone tells you plenty. Every offshore joint runs the same little routine, you win, suddenly they want utility bills, card photos, a selfie holding your passport like you're auditioning for a remake. I've been through that washing machine more times than I care to admit, and the punters who got paid are the ones who got bored of waiting and stopped asking 😄
So yeah, CairnsKid's got it right, "it paid me" chatter is worth nothing until someone here posts the money actually landing. Me, I keep my slap money for the club pokies down the road. Old habit from the days when the feature meant something, and if the machine's dead you walk two steps and complain to a human face. That's worth more than any offshore promise, trust me.
It's all hit and busted before, folks.
DaveFortune's right, the KYC circus is the standard stall. I'll believe anyone got paid when the money's actually cleared. Crickets so far says plenty to me.
Licence first, deposit after.
Funny thing is the KYC rigmarole Dave mentioned reminds me why I stick to the club pokies when I'm feeling cautious, no paperwork, money's in the pocket on the spot. If they're asking for a selfie with a passport before you've even tried a cashout, imagine the dance when you actually want the funds. I'll sit this one out till someone here posts a cleared bank statement. ah well, we grind on
I remember the old slots first-hand.
Manly_North copped it, my cashout from there took ages n I was sweating the whole KYC dance 😅 but it landed eventually, A$1.2k, huge win ngl 🔥 just don't chuck in more than you're happy to lose offshore.
One cashout landing means sweet nothing to me, banks do it too - first payout comes through fine, then the second time suddenly there's a "security review" and you're chasing support for a fortnight. What I'd want to kno…
@ParraTrue yeah Danny landing one payout got me keen too ngl 😅 but I'd say test it with a small hit first. I cashed like A$200 off Stay a while back, no dramas, went straight to the pokies fund lol. Second time's the real tell though, that's what everyone reckons here... gonna try mine next week and see, ah well 🔥💰

One cashout landing means sweet nothing to me, banks do it too - first payout comes through fine, then the second time suddenly there's a "security review" and you're chasing support for a fortnight. What I'd want to know before another deposit is whether anyone's had the SECOND withdrawal clear from Stay, not the first. If nobody in here can name one, that tells the story already. 🎰
500x one day, zero the next. Classic.

@BetGod that second-cashout "security review" thing is exactly what I'm scared of 😅 I've only done one small withdrawal so far (like A$150, came through fine) and now I'm wondering if I should test a second one before chasing any bonus. Do you size your deposits down after the first payout, or just accept the risk?

BetGod hit it on the head — first payout sailing through then a "security review" the second time round, that's the pattern that stings. I keep bankroll discipline tight on offshore: small deposits, bet a couple a spin, and if I clear the bonus in profit I'm cashing out straight away rather than letting it ride. Anyone here had a second withdrawal from Stay land, or is it once-only?

@John_HighRoller nah I've done three cashouts off Stay now and only the second one got held up, came through after a day or so once they had my docs. Small deposits and quick withdrawals is the way regardless, no argument there 🔥 last session hit big for A$430 on my favourite pokie, withdrawal already in, second time round all good 🤑🎰

@Payline888 three cashouts and only one hold? deadset better run than most offshore spots, respect 🔉 my Stay payout was quick too, docs sorted first thing and money landed same day 💰
The hit is close, I can feel it.
Second cashout anxiety is real 😅 mine landed quick both times off Stay but I only ever pull small amounts anyway. Reckon the docs hold is just them dragging their heels, once you're verified it's smooth sailing. Hit A$43…
@WildWin777 same energy here mate 🔥 docs got sorted quick on my end too and the money was in the account basically same day, no dramas at all. People whinge about the hold but once you're verified it's smooth 🤑 smashed my favourite pokie last night too and cashed out straight after, zero stress. Stay pays, simple as that 💰
Backing my slot to the last spin.

@NumbersHunter good to hear the verification went quick on your end. Worth noting for anyone reading: my own withdrawals from these offshore sites have always hinged on how fast the docs cleared, and the hold itself depends on the volatility of your session too, a couple of big hits on a high-variance pokie seems to trigger extra review more often than small steady wins. Did they ask you for source-of-funds docs at all, or just standard ID and a utility bill?
Volatility > vibes.

@GaryParra same experience here, docs cleared first is the whole game. I sent my ID and a utility bill before I even requested the cashout on Stay and it landed same week, no drama. The killer is punter discipline after, I've watched a decent withdrawal get fed back into high volatility spins waiting for the hold to lift 😭 never again.
Cashing out in time is half the battle.
Test the second one at a low amount before you touch any bonus, that's my read on it. The first payout from an offshore is where they're on best behaviour, you're a fresh punter, KYC is fresh, they want you back. The friction usually shows up on withdrawal number two or three, once there's a deposit history to argue over. I keep my own sheet on payout friction across a few of these places and the pattern holds annoyingly well.
On the bonus question: chase it only after you've cleared a second withdrawal without drama. A wagering requirement drags your EV further into the red anyway, and on high-volatility pokies your spin sample over the requirement is tiny. Variance decides whether you ever see the cashout screen, and then the review decides whether you keep it. Withdraw first, decide after. 📊
RTP is a long-run number.
Second cashout anxiety is real 😅 mine landed quick both times off Stay but I only ever pull small amounts anyway. Reckon the docs hold is just them dragging their heels, once you're verified it's smooth sailing. Hit A$430 last night on my favourite pokie and withdrawal went in same day 🤑

Second cashout was the sus one for me too, held up over docs, then landed fine. Keep the bet per spin flat and cashing out in time is everything 💸

@DeadSpinMerchant same anxiety here 😅 only on my first cashout from Stay, deposited a small amount and wagered the bonus but now I'm second-guessing whether I did the wagering right. Maybe I'm being dumb but does the docs check happen before or after you hit withdraw? Don't want to get stuck like the others 🙏
Learning to clear wagering, go easy 🙏

@NumbersHunter same vibe here mate, stay verified and it's all smooth sailing 🤑 that pokie of mine just keeps paying, nearly forgot to cash out last night ah well
The hit is close, I can feel it.
@Mike_Freo nearly forgot to cash out 😂 mate I've done the opposite, told myself "one more spin" and watched a withdrawal turn into a deposit again. My bank's so busted I get nostalgic reading these success stories 🤣 keep hammering that pokie before it figures out what you're doing lol
One more spin, promise.
@Mike_Win docs check happens before they release the cashout mate, so get them in early 🔥 my fave pokie's been cooking lately too, cashed out quick last night ah well
Backing my slot to the last spin.
@Jackpot888 that "one more spin" trap is what kills the bankroll mate, been there plenty of times 😭 on the cashout side though, my Stay withdrawal cleared without drama once the docs were in, sent them before I even hit the button and the money landed same week. Get the verification sorted early and it's a non-issue 🔥

@BetHunter Yeah docs first is the play 🔥 my Stay cashout landed same week too, was stoked. Discipline part tho... "one more spin" got me last night, ah well 🙃
