Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
Online pokies and casino games should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. They are games of chance and should never be considered a way to make money or solve financial problems. The house always has a mathematical advantage, and losses are a real possibility. Please gamble only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory) to use online pokie services. It is illegal for minors to gamble. By accessing this website, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling can become problematic. Please check if you or someone you know exhibits any of these warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative feelings
- Experiencing anxiety or irritability when unable to gamble
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Borrowing money or using savings to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, school, family, or social responsibilities
- Failed attempts to cut down or stop gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties due to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, it's important to seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most reputable online pokie providers offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose within a specified time period
- Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications reminding you how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Time-Out/Break: Temporarily suspend your account for a set period (hours, days, or weeks)
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently or temporarily exclude yourself from gambling services
Use these tools proactively to protect yourself. Set limits before you start playing and stick to them.
