Responsible Gambling
Gambling should be a paid-for form of entertainment, never a way to make money or fix a money problem. This page sets out practical steps and where to get help in Australia.
Know your limits
- Decide a deposit budget before you start and keep to it.
- Set a time limit for each session and take regular breaks.
- Never chase losses and never gamble with money needed for bills, rent or food.
- Avoid gambling when upset, stressed or after drinking.
Warning signs
It may be time to step back if you notice any of these:
- You spend more time or money than you planned.
- You hide your gambling from family or friends.
- You borrow money to gamble or to cover losses.
- You feel irritable, anxious or guilty when you are not playing.

Tools to use
Ask the operator about deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, time-outs and self-exclusion before you play. If you use more than one gambling site, set limits on each one. Software that blocks gambling sites on your devices can add another layer of protection.
Age restriction
You must be 18 or over. Keep your account details private and make sure children cannot reach gambling accounts or apps on shared devices.
