Responsible Gambling

Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to make money. This page gives practical steps to keep it that way. You must be 18 or older to gamble.

Set your limits first

• Decide how much you can afford to lose before you deposit.
• Set a time limit and take regular breaks.
• Never chase losses or gamble with money needed for bills, rent or food.
• Avoid gambling when upset, stressed or under the influence of alcohol.

Warning signs

• Spending more time or money than you planned.
• Hiding gambling from family or friends.
• Borrowing money to play.
• Feeling anxious or irritable when you are not playing.

Where to get help

Free, confidential support is available. In Australia, Gambling Help Online offers counselling and chat. You can also visit BeGambleAware or Gambling Therapy.

Tools at the casino

Ask the operator's support team about deposit limits, time-outs and self-exclusion. Using them is a sign of control, not weakness.

Protect minors

Keep devices and accounts away from anyone under 18, and consider filtering software at home.
