Responsible Gambling

For adults, and for fun

All games described on Remont Stiralnyh Mashin are intended solely for adults (18+). We discuss how games work for interest, rather than as a method of earning money. Over time, the house edge means the venue comes out ahead. View any money spent as the price of a night's entertainment, similar to a movie ticket, and expect it to be gone.

Signs it's stopping being fun

  • Using more time or money than you intended
  • Betting more to recover lost funds
  • Borrowing or using money for bills, rent or groceries to gamble
  • Concealing the extent of your gambling from those close to you
  • Feeling flat, irritable or anxious when you aren't gambling
  • Gambling as a way to escape problems or stress

If any of these seem familiar, it's worth pausing and talking to someone.

Limits you can set

  • Choose a budget before beginning, and quit once it's gone
  • Establish a time limit and use a phone alarm
  • Keep cards at home and carry just the cash you've allocated
  • Pause often, and avoid it if you're upset or have been drinking
  • View a loss as the price of the evening instead of chasing it

BetStop, the National Self-Exclusion Register

BetStop is a free service provided by the Australian Government. You can exclude yourself from every licensed Australian wagering provider that operates via phone or online through a single process. You select the duration, which ranges from three months up to a lifetime.

While you're registered, providers:

  • can't create an account for you
  • can't accept your bets
  • can't send you marketing
  • must shut your current accounts and refund any remaining credit

To register, you must be ordinarily resident in Australia and have your identity verified. You'll need your email, a mobile phone, and an Australian driver's licence, Australian passport or Medicare card. It takes around five minutes. You can also name up to five support people, like a friend or family member.

If you want to use a different ID document or need help registering, call BetStop on 1800 238 786.
