Responsible Gambling
At MinesGame.au we believe gambling should always be entertainment — never a source of financial stress. This page provides guidance, tools, and resources to help you gamble responsibly.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more than you can afford to lose
- Chasing losses to try to win back money
- Gambling interfering with work, relationships, or health
- Hiding gambling activities from friends or family
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
Tools for Safer Gambling
Licensed Australian casinos and gambling platforms offer these responsible gambling tools:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit caps.
- Session Limits: Limit how long you can play per session.
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum loss amount per period.
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from a casino for a set period or permanently.
- Reality Checks: Pop-up reminders showing your session time and net win/loss.
