Responsible Gambling

Gambling should be a form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. We take responsible gambling seriously and encourage all players to gamble within their means.

If you or someone you know is struggling with gambling, please reach out for help. There are organisations that provide support:

Key Principles of Responsible Gambling

  1. 1

    Set Limits

    Decide how much money and time you're willing to spend before you start playing. Stick to these limits, no matter what.

  2. 2

    Only Gamble with What You Can Afford to Lose

    Never gamble with money needed for essential expenses like rent, food, or utilities.

  3. 3

    View It as Entertainment, Not Income

    Think of gambling as entertainment with a cost, like going to a movie. Don't expect to make money.

  4. 4

    Take Breaks

    Regular breaks help you maintain perspective and reduce the risk of problematic gambling behaviour.

  5. 5

    Don't Chase Losses

    If you lose money, resist the urge to gamble more to win it back. This usually leads to bigger losses.

  6. 6

    Avoid Gambling When Stressed or Upset

    Gambling as a coping mechanism can lead to problem gambling. Address underlying issues instead.

Signs of Problem Gambling

If several of these sound familiar, it may be time to take a break and seek support.

  • Spending more money or time on gambling than you intended, repeatedly.
  • Chasing losses — betting more to win back what you have lost.
  • Gambling with money meant for bills, rent, or essentials.
  • Lying to family or friends about how much you gamble.
  • Feeling restless or irritable when you try to cut down.
  • Gambling to escape stress, low mood, or anxiety.

Self-Exclusion & Account Controls

Self-Exclusion

Most licensed operators let you self-exclude for a fixed period or permanently. Once set, it cannot be reversed early — that is the point. Region-wide schemes such as GAMSTOP block all participating sites at once.

Account Controls

Before it gets to self-exclusion, use deposit limits, loss limits, session-time reminders, and cool-off periods. Set them when you open an account, not after a bad night.

If Someone You Know Has a Gambling Problem

  • Be Supportive: Approach the conversation with compassion, not judgment. Let them know you care and want to help.

  • Share Resources: Provide information about support services like Gamblers Anonymous and the National Council on Problem Gambling.

  • Set Boundaries: You can be supportive while still setting healthy boundaries about lending money or enabling their gambling.

  • Encourage Professional Help: Suggest they speak with a therapist or counsellor who specialises in gambling addiction.

  • Take Care of Yourself: Supporting someone with a gambling problem can be emotionally draining. Make sure you're also getting support.
