Responsible Gambling
Gambling should always be entertaining — not a source of financial or emotional stress. We are committed to promoting safe gambling practices for all Australian users.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more than you can afford on gambling
- Lying to friends or family about gambling activities
- Chasing losses — gambling more to try to win back money lost
- Neglecting work, family, or social responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling
