Responsible Gaming

Gamble for entertainment, not income

Online casino games are games of chance. The outcome of each game is unpredictable, and past results do not influence future results. There is no guaranteed strategy, system or method that can ensure a profit. You should only gamble with money you can afford to lose and treat any winnings as an uncertain result rather than a reliable source of income.

Before you play, consider whether gambling fits comfortably within your budget and lifestyle. Never use money set aside for rent, mortgage repayments, bills, food, education, healthcare or other essential expenses. You should also avoid gambling with borrowed money, credit that you cannot repay or funds intended for someone else.

Responsible gambling means making a deliberate choice to play, understanding the risks and being able to stop. It also means accepting that losses are part of gambling. Trying to recover losses by increasing your stakes or playing for longer can lead to further losses and may make it harder to remain in control.

Helpful habits

• Set a gambling budget before you begin and do not exceed it.
• Decide how long you will play and take regular breaks.
• Keep gambling separate from everyday spending and essential bills.
• Avoid gambling when you are upset, tired, stressed or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
• Do not chase losses or increase stakes to try to change an outcome.
• Keep your gambling private from children and do not allow others to use your account.
• Review your gambling activity regularly and act if your habits change.

Set limits and stay in control

Limits can help you make decisions before you start playing. Depending on the features available through your account, you may be able to set controls for deposits, spending, session time or other gambling activity. A limit is most effective when it is realistic, considered in advance and treated as a firm boundary.

Take time to review any available account controls and choose settings that reflect your personal budget. If a limit is reached, do not attempt to work around it by opening another account, using another payment method or asking someone else to gamble on your behalf. These actions can increase risk and undermine the purpose of responsible gaming tools.

A temporary break can be useful if you feel distracted by gambling, are spending more time or money than planned, or simply want time away from gaming. If you need a longer break, ask about the self-exclusion options available through the service. Self-exclusion is a formal decision to stop access to gambling for a selected period or until further action is taken, subject to the applicable process and terms.

Review your choices

1. Choose an amount you can afford to lose without affecting your normal commitments.
2. Set a time limit before opening a game.
3. Use account tools to apply deposit, spending or activity limits where available.
4. Stop playing when your planned time or budget has been reached.
5. Take a break and review your activity if gambling no longer feels enjoyable or controlled.

Account tools are intended to support your decisions, but they are not a substitute for professional advice. If you are finding it difficult to apply limits or stop gambling, consider taking a break and seeking independent support as soon as possible.

Recognise signs of gambling harm

Gambling harm can affect finances, relationships, work, study, physical health and emotional wellbeing. It may develop gradually, and you may not always notice the change yourself. Paying attention to your behaviour can help you take action early.

• Spending more time or money gambling than you intended.
• Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when you try to stop or reduce gambling.
• Thinking about gambling frequently during work, study, family time or other activities.
• Chasing losses or gambling with money needed for everyday expenses.
• Borrowing money, selling possessions or hiding gambling activity from others.
• Missing work, study, appointments or social commitments because of gambling.
• Arguing with family or friends about gambling or its financial effects.
• Gambling to escape stress, sadness, loneliness, boredom or other difficult feelings.
• Feeling guilt, shame, regret or hopelessness after gambling.
• Trying unsuccessfully to cut back, stop or control your gambling.

One sign does not automatically mean that someone has a gambling problem, but several signs should be taken seriously. You do not need to wait for a crisis before asking for help. Speaking with a trusted person or a qualified support service can provide perspective and practical assistance.

If gambling is causing concern

Stop playing and consider using the account restriction, break or self-exclusion options available to you. Review your finances, avoid access to additional gambling funds and tell someone you trust what is happening. Independent gambling support services in Australia can offer confidential information, counselling and guidance. You can also speak with a general practitioner or another qualified health professional about the effect gambling is having on your wellbeing.

If you feel unsafe, are in immediate danger or are thinking about harming yourself, seek urgent help through local emergency services or a crisis support service. Gambling concerns can be treated, and asking for help is a positive step.

Protect young people and vulnerable people

Gambling services are intended for adults who meet the applicable legal age and account requirements. Minors must not access, use or attempt to use an online gambling account. Do not share your login details, payment information or verification documents with anyone, including friends or family members.

Use appropriate device, browser and payment security to reduce the risk of unauthorised access. Keep passwords private, sign out when using a shared device and consider parental controls or device restrictions where appropriate. If you believe another person has accessed your account, stop using it and follow the available account security process.

Extra care may be appropriate for people experiencing financial pressure, mental health difficulties, substance use, relationship problems or other circumstances that can affect decision-making. Gambling should never be used as a solution to these issues. Encourage anyone who may be at risk to seek independent advice and support.
