Responsible Gambling

At WheresgoldSlots.com.au, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling. Online gambling should always be entertaining – never a source of financial stress or emotional harm. This page provides important information and resources to help you stay in control.

Responsible Gambling Principles

  • Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
  • Set a budget before you play and stick to it.
  • Never chase losses – accept them as the cost of entertainment.
  • Do not gamble when you are upset, stressed, or under the influence of alcohol.
  • Take regular breaks and set time limits for your sessions.
  • Keep gambling in balance with other activities in your life.
  • Never borrow money to gamble.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Watch for these warning signs in yourself or someone you care about:

  • Spending more time and money on gambling than intended.
  • Gambling to escape from problems or negative emotions.
  • Lying to family or friends about gambling habits.
  • Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling.
  • Chasing losses or feeling the need to bet more to get the same excitement.
  • Borrowing money or selling belongings to fund gambling.
  • Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling.

Self-Exclusion Tools

Most licensed Australian online casinos offer self-exclusion tools that allow you to restrict your own access for a set period. Contact your casino's support team to activate self-exclusion. You can also use BetStop (Australia's national self-exclusion register at betstop.gov.au) to exclude yourself from all licensed interactive gambling services in Australia simultaneously.
