Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
Pokies and online gaming should only be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical advantage, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gaming in Australia is only available to individuals aged 18 years and over. If you are under the legal age, you must not access or use any gambling services on this website. We take age restrictions seriously and verify all players' identities.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Hiding your gambling activities from family or friends
- Gambling with money meant for bills, rent, or essential expenses
- Feeling the need to gamble with increasing amounts to get the same excitement
- Being unable to cut back or stop gambling despite wanting to
- Experiencing anxiety, irritability, or restlessness when trying to reduce gambling
- Lying about the extent of your gambling habits
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay off gambling debts
- Neglecting relationships, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features
Most reputable gaming providers offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose in a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders of how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
- Time Limits: Set a timer to remind you when your gaming session should end
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gaming services
- Account Cooling-Off Period: Take a break from gambling for a set period before re-accessing your account
We encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
