NSW to Reform Casino Tax Rates

Casino tax arrangements will be reformed by the NSW Government to help fund vital services.
The proposed increases are anticipated to commence on 1 July 2023 and include tax rates on what the casinos earn from gaming tables and poker machines. They are forecast to raise an additional $364 million over the next three years.
Treasurer Matt Kean said the changes will support the State’s fiscal sustainability as it continues to invest in communities recovering from the unprecedented impacts of COVID-19, bushfires and floods.
“It’s important that casinos pay their fair share of tax. These reformed tax rates will replace the existing regime under which casinos pay less tax on poker machines than hotels and clubs,” Mr Kean said.
“These changes will ensure that the casinos continue to make an appropriate contribution to the community and support the delivery of vital Government services.”
Mr Kean said casinos provide employment and entertainment for thousands of people across the State and these changes will support their ongoing contribution to the NSW economy.
The updated poker machine rate will bring NSW into line with Victoria, following recent reforms to casino taxation arrangements announced in the 2022-23 Victorian Budget.
The NSW Government, through the Responsible Gambling Fund, is spending $33 million in 2022-23 to support people experiencing gambling harm, educating the community on the risks of gambling and investing in research to better understand gambling behaviour. The 2022-23 NSW Budget committed to allocating an additional $5 million per year to the Responsible Gambling Fund, increasing in line with inflation.

Elantil strengthens marketplace portfolio with RubyPlay partnership

Elantil, the pioneering platform solutions provider that’s steadily redefining relationships between operators and suppliers, has announced it has formed a new partnership with RubyPlay that will further extend the range of casino titles available in its online marketplace.
Celebrated for its game’s immersive themes and innovative bonus features, RubyPlay has been recognised across the industry with several notable awards, including FTN Game of the Year for its Mad Hit® Olympic First slot and Favourite Casino Company at the 2023 B.F.T.H Arena Awards.
Fully licensed and regulated in a number of key iGaming jurisdictions across the globe, RubyPlay has consistently raised the bar in terms of what’s possible from an online video slot by introducing a number of ground-breaking game mechanics such as the ever-popular Immortal Ways®, Giga Match® and Go High®.
With this in mind, the provider is certain to be a hugely popular addition to Elantil’s Marketplace and will now be available to all operators via a simple one-click integration, with Elantil giving operators the freedom to contact RubyPlay directly and form the terms of their own agreements.
As this effectively cuts out the middleman and ensures that no extra costs are ever charged on Elantil’s side, operators are given complete control over the length and conditions of their contract and need only enter their login details in the marketplace to enjoy a speedy, hassle-free set-up.
The new partnership will therefore enable Elanti’s operators to quickly integrate and roll out over 100 thrilling casino titles on their platforms, with this further increasing the choice available via Elantil’s Marketplace while also ensuring that RubyPlay’s content reaches more players worldwide.
John Debono, Chief Technical Officer at Elantil, said: “Since launching Elantil’s Marketplace, we’ve steadily set about building a first-class collection of casino content that’s easily accessible to operators via a simple one-click integration – and the addition of RubyPlay games will certainly strengthen our offering further. Known for their engaging titles and innovative bonus mechanics, we’re sure RubyPlay will prove to be a popular software partner for Elantil’s operators going forward.”
Dr. Eyal Loz, Chief Product Officer at RubyPlay, said: “Much like Elantil, RubyPlay is a company that’s always strived to disrupt the industry through its creative ideas and cutting-edge innovation, so we couldn’t think of a better partner to be teaming up with. Being integrated into Elantil’s Marketplace will ensure that our content is put in front of an even wider audience and we’re really looking forward to supporting their operators.”
