Responsible Gambling
Gambling can cause harm. A bonus, a free spin promotion or a winning session does not remove the risk of losing money. This website is intended for adults and does not provide gambling counselling.
Independent support in Australia
Gambling Help Online provides free support across Australia, including online counselling and information for people affected by their own gambling or someone else’s. The gambling helpline is 1800 858 858, available 24 hours a day.
When to pause
Reasons to step back include spending money needed for bills, borrowing to gamble, trying to recover losses, hiding gambling from people close to you or finding it difficult to stop. You do not need to wait until these problems become severe to seek support.
Controls and exclusion
Gambling services may provide account limits, cooling-off periods or self-exclusion. Ask the service what its controls cover. BetStop — the National Self-Exclusion Register covers Australian licensed online and telephone wagering providers. It is not a universal exclusion system for overseas online casinos.
Support for family and friends
Gambling Help Online also provides resources for people worried about someone else. Independent support can help you understand available options without needing to manage the situation alone.
