Responsible Gambling

Gambling should be entertainment, not a way to earn money. Decide your limits before you start and stick to them.

Simple rules

• Set a deposit and time limit before you play.
• Only use money you can afford to lose.
• Never chase losses or gamble to solve money problems.
• Take regular breaks and avoid playing when tired or upset.
• You must be 18 or older.

Warning signs

Spending more than planned, hiding gambling from family, borrowing to play or feeling irritable when you stop are all signs to pause and seek support.

Where to get help

Independent services include Gambling Help Online in Australia, BeGambleAware and Gambling Therapy, all linked in the footer. Australians can also look at BetStop, the national self-exclusion register for licensed wagering services.

Know the rules

An offshore licence does not authorise gambling services in Australia. Check the law that applies to you before you register.
