Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
Betting should always be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Like going to the movies or playing sport, it should only cost what you can afford to lose and should never negatively impact your life, relationships, or finances.
If you find yourself betting more than intended or experiencing gambling-related difficulties, support is available.
Age Verification
In Australia, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in gambling activities. We strictly enforce this requirement and do not knowingly accept players under the legal gambling age.
If you are under 18, please do not attempt to register or place bets on our affiliated betting sites.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, problem gambling may be developing:
- Chasing losses by betting more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount wagered
- Betting with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, bills)
- Neglecting work, study, family, or relationships due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Inability to stick to betting limits or stop gambling
- Experiencing blackouts or memory gaps related to gambling sessions
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut down or quit gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
If you recognise any of these signs in your own behaviour, please reach out for help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Features
Most responsible betting operators offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount of losses you're willing to accept within a timeframe
- Bet Limits: Restrict the maximum size of individual bets
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders during gambling sessions about time and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from a betting site for a set period, preventing access to your account
- Account Closure: Permanently close your betting account if you wish to stop gambling entirely
We encourage you to use these features proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
