Responsible gambling

Keep gambling within limits

Gambling is not a way to earn income or recover losses. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Set a budget and time limit before playing, take regular breaks and never borrow money to gamble.

Recognise warning signs

Chasing losses, hiding gambling, spending more than planned, neglecting responsibilities or feeling unable to stop are reasons to take a break and seek support. Do not gamble when distressed or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

Use protective tools

Ask the operator about deposit limits, time-outs, account closure and self-exclusion. Availability and effectiveness depend on the operator and jurisdiction. Australia’s BetStop register covers participating Australian licensed online and telephone wagering providers; it should not be assumed to cover every offshore casino.
