Responsible Gambling Australia
Limits, Support, Self-Exclusion & Wellbeing Resources
Responsible Gambling & Player Wellbeing
Gambling involves financial risk and should be treated as paid entertainment, not as a way to earn income, repay debt, or solve financial problems. Responsible gambling means understanding the risks, setting limits before participating, and recognising when it is time to stop.
If gambling is affecting your finances, health, work, or relationships, free and confidential support is available in Australia.
Platform Guides & Resources
Responsible Gambling Principles
- Set a fixed entertainment budget before starting
- Set a session time limit and take regular breaks
- Understand game rules and odds
- Avoid borrowed money or gambling while impaired
- Recognise that losses are a normal part of play
Not a Source of Income
Casino games feature a mathematical advantage for the operator. Never rely on gambling to pay bills, cover rent, repay loans, or recover previous losses. If essential expenses are at risk, stop immediately.
Spending & Time Limits
Decide the maximum amount you can afford to lose without touching housing, food, utility, or medical funds. Establish strict time limits, especially on mobile devices, to prevent extended play sessions.
Avoiding Chasing Losses
Chasing losses involves increasing wagers to recover lost funds, which often accelerates financial harm. Warning signs include raising bets after losing, canceling withdrawals, or borrowing money to play.
