Responsible Gambling
Last updated:
Gambling should remain an optional form of entertainment. It should never be treated as income, a solution to financial pressure or a way to recover previous losses.
1. Gambling should remain entertainment
Every casino game involves chance and the operator has a long-term statistical advantage. A stake should be viewed as the cost of entertainment, not as an investment.
There is no betting system that guarantees a win. Stop when gambling is no longer enjoyable.
2. Set limits before playing
Decide in advance how much money and time you can afford to spend. Use deposit, loss, wager and session limits where they are available.
Never gamble with money required for rent, food, bills, debt payments, education or other essential needs. Do not borrow money to gamble.
3. Avoid chasing losses
Trying to immediately win back lost money often leads to larger losses and riskier decisions. Accept the result of a session and take a break rather than increasing stakes.
Do not gamble when upset, under pressure, intoxicated or unable to make clear decisions.
4. Recognise warning signs
Warning signs can include spending more than planned, hiding gambling activity, neglecting work or relationships, borrowing money, feeling anxious about losses or being unable to stop.
Experiencing one or more warning signs is a reason to pause and seek confidential support.
5. Use player-protection tools
Licensed gambling operators may offer reality checks, cooling-off periods, deposit limits and self-exclusion. These tools should be activated before a situation becomes urgent.
Self-exclusion is designed to block access for a chosen period. Do not try to bypass an exclusion by creating another account.
6. Protect minors and vulnerable people
Gambling services are for adults who meet the legal age requirement. Keep account credentials and payment methods secure, and do not allow another person to use your account.
Parents and guardians should consider device-level blocking tools and discuss gambling risks openly with young people.
7. Get support
If gambling is affecting your finances, health or relationships, contact a qualified local support organisation or healthcare professional. In an immediate mental-health crisis, contact your local emergency service.
Support is also appropriate for family members and friends affected by someone else’s gambling.
