Virtual Bucks & Balance

Learn how virtual coins work and what happens to your balance.

Aussie Bucks uses virtual bucks (or virtual coins) purely for on-site fun. They are a playful way to track your in-game activity, but they:

  • Have no monetary value and cannot be purchased, sold, or exchanged.
  • Cannot be withdrawn, transferred, or redeemed for any cash, prizes, goods, or services.
  • Are topped up daily (for example, 5,000 virtual bucks every 24 hours) in your browser.
  • Are stored locally using browser storage such as localStorage, not in a financial account.

If your browser storage is cleared or you switch devices, your visible balance and progress may reset, as Aussie Bucks does not operate real-money accounts.

Browser Storage & Privacy

How your progress and preferences are saved safely on your device.

Aussie Bucks uses browser storage tools such as localStorage and essential cookies to provide a smooth, consistent experience without creating payment accounts.

We may store locally:

  • Your 18+ age confirmation.
  • Your cookie and privacy preferences.
  • Your local virtual bucks balance and in-game progress markers.
  • Simple game settings like sound, display, or recently played titles.

You can clear this data any time in your browser settings. Doing so may reset your visible balance and progress, but it does not affect any financial records, because Aussie Bucks does not handle real-money payments.

For full details, see the Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.
