Fair Go comp points explained in one line: every real-money bet earns loyalty points, and those points can be swapped for free spins through Fair eXchange. It is the one Fair Go reward that does not need a coupon code, a minimum deposit or a Monday. You simply play, and the balance ticks up in the background.

This guide covers how points accumulate, what Fair eXchange does with them, how the game of the month doubles your earning rate, how points tie into the Koala loyalty program and VIP tiers, and the honest limits of the whole system. It will not make you money, but it will stop you leaving value on the table.

How comp points are earned

Comp points are a loyalty currency. Fair Go credits them against your real-money wagering: the more you bet, the more points you hold. Fair Go does not publish a fixed points-per-dollar rate on its site, so we will not quote one. The cashier or loyalty section of your account shows your current balance, and that is the figure to trust.

A few things we can say for certain from the operator's site:

  • Points come from real-money play. Free spins and bonus funds may not earn at the same rate, if at all, so check the bonus terms.
  • The game of the month earns double points. At the time of writing that is Horseman's Prize on code GOTM1026, which also bundles a 150% match plus 50 free spins for deposits of $45 or more.
  • Points are separate from your cash balance and cannot be withdrawn directly. They are converted into something else first.

Fair eXchange: turning points into free spins

Fair eXchange is the redemption shop. You take your accumulated comp points and exchange them for free spins on Fair Go pokies. Fair Go does not list a fixed conversion rate publicly, so the number of spins per batch of points is something to check inside the Fair eXchange section when you are ready to redeem.

Why spins rather than cash? Because spins keep you in the lobby, which suits the casino, and because spins can be given on specific games the operator wants to showcase. For you, the practical value is simple: free spins earned from play you were already doing. Any winnings from those spins are subject to whatever terms Fair eXchange attaches, which may include wagering, so read the small print before you assume the proceeds are withdrawable. Our free spins page covers how spin winnings are usually treated.

Comp points and the Koala loyalty program

Comp points are part of the broader Koala loyalty and VIP structure. Fair Go's site lists the following benefits for its VIP tiers:

BenefitStandard accountVIP tiers
Cashback on busted deposits25% instant, 30% on weekendsUp to 40%
Withdrawal limits$2,500 per transfer; weekly and monthly caps applyHigher limits
ProcessingWithin 2 business daysPriority processing
Support24/7 live chatDedicated host
OffersPublic codes and Koala's DiaryExclusive offers, VIP Thursday inbox bonuses

Fair Go does not publish the exact point thresholds for each tier, so treat VIP status as something that comes with sustained play rather than a target you can plan to hit on a budget. The VIP page has the full list of what the program advertises.

Double points: the game of the month

Once a month Fair Go picks a featured pokie and attaches a code that doubles comp point earnings on it. At the time of writing the game is Horseman's Prize and the code is GOTM1026, which also delivers a 150% match and 50 free spins on a $45 minimum deposit. If you were going to play that game anyway, redeeming the code is pure upside on the points side. If you were not, do not change your play just to collect points: the value of the points is a fraction of the house edge on the extra wagering.

The game changes monthly, and so does the code, so confirm the current one in the Fair Go promotions page or your casino inbox. The promotions page on this site tracks what is live.

Fair Go X magazine and other points-adjacent perks

Fair Go publishes a quarterly magazine called Fair Go X that carries exclusive bonuses for readers. It is not strictly a comp points feature, but it sits in the same loyalty ecosystem: the longer you play, the more of these side channels you tend to see. VIP Thursday delivers VIP bonuses to the casino inbox every Thursday. Fair Draw runs weekly from Friday to Thursday with random bonuses between $50 and $500 for depositing players. None of these require points, but all of them reward the same thing points do, which is regular play. Our Fair Go X explainer goes into the magazine in detail.

An honest assessment of comp point value

Comp points are a rebate, and like every casino rebate they return a small slice of what the house edge takes. At Fair Go's stated average pokie RTP of approximately 97%, every $100 you wager costs around $3 in expectation. The free spins you get back from Fair eXchange will be worth less than that. Points are therefore not a reason to play more. They are a reason to make sure that, when you do play, you are collecting what is owed.

Three sensible rules:

  • Redeem points periodically rather than hoarding them, in case the exchange rate or terms change.
  • Check whether a bonus you are considering earns points at the normal rate. If not, factor that in.
  • Never increase bet size to reach a points milestone. The extra wagering costs more than the reward.

For the broader picture on bonuses and their true cost, see wagering requirements explained and the comp points page.

Responsible gambling

Loyalty schemes are built to reward the people who play most, which makes them a quiet nudge towards playing more than you planned. If you notice yourself playing to earn points, or to protect a VIP tier, that is the scheme working on you rather than for you. Set your budget by what you can afford, not by what the program rewards. Gambling Help Online is on 1800 858 858, free and available 24/7.

Frequently asked questions

By wagering real money. Fair Go credits loyalty points against your bets, and the game of the month earns double points via its monthly code (GOTM1026 on Horseman's Prize at the time of writing). The site does not publish a fixed points-per-dollar rate, so check your balance in the loyalty section of your account.

Fair eXchange is Fair Go's redemption feature where comp points are swapped for free spins. The conversion rate is shown inside the feature rather than on the public site. Winnings from exchanged spins may carry terms such as wagering, so read what is attached before assuming the proceeds are withdrawable.

No. Comp points are converted into free spins through Fair eXchange, not paid out directly. Any winnings from those spins become part of your balance subject to the applicable terms. If you want cash value from your play, the cashback on busted deposits is the more direct route.

Fair Go does not state an expiry on its site at the time of writing, but loyalty terms can change. Our advice is to redeem points regularly rather than letting them accumulate for months, so a change in rules or rates does not catch you with a large unredeemed balance.

VIP status in the Koala loyalty program comes with sustained real-money play; Fair Go does not publish the exact thresholds. VIPs get cashback up to 40% on busted deposits, higher withdrawal limits, priority processing, a dedicated host and exclusive offers, including VIP Thursday bonuses sent to the casino inbox.

No. They return a small fraction of the house edge on your wagering, so playing more to earn them costs more than they give back. The sensible approach is to play within your budget, redeem the points you naturally earn, and use double-points months only if you were already going to play that game.
