Responsible Play

Pokies should be entertainment, not a way to make money or solve money problems. This page sets out simple habits that keep play under control.

Know the rules

You must be 18 or over. Methmeth is listed for Australian players only, and all other countries are restricted. Never gamble on credit you cannot repay or with money meant for bills, rent or food.

Set limits before you start

• Choose a deposit budget you can afford to lose and keep to it.
• Set a session time and take a break when it ends.
• Decide in advance when you will stop if you win.
• Never chase losses with a larger deposit.

Understand bonuses

Bonuses carry wagering requirements. The supplied welcome package lists 35x wagering, which means bonus funds must be turned over many times before withdrawal. A bonus is never a reason to deposit more than planned.

Warning signs

• Spending more time or money than you meant to.
• Hiding gambling from family or friends.
• Feeling anxious, irritable or low when you are not playing.
• Borrowing money to gamble.
