Controls within reach
What you set before play, not after a loss
How much goes in?
A cap on what you pay in keeps each week at a size you decided calmly. Switch it on when you first join, before any deposit leaves your bank.
Net loss cap
This one watches the gap between money in and money back, so a bad run stops at your line. Set it when wins and losses have started to blur.
Time check nudge
A gentle note appears after a stretch of play, telling you how long you have been at the table. Turn it on for long evenings when the clock slips by unnoticed.
Can I pause for a while?
A pause locks the account for a while, so a heated mood cannot reach your balance. Reach for it the moment play stops feeling like a pastime.
The night you decide to stop
A firm closure shuts you out for the period you choose, with no way back in early. Choose it when you want distance rather than a short rest.
Support in the settings
How do you put a limit on your account?
Signed in, then settings
Sign in and open the settings area from your profile menu. Check that you are on your own account, not a shared device.
Three kinds, one choice
Pick between deposit, loss or session time, since each guards a different part of play. Read the short description beside each one before you choose.
A figure you can keep
Key in your figure and pick day, week or month as the stretch it covers. Choose a sum that would still feel comfortable on a quiet week.
Saved and double-checked
Save the change, then return to the settings page to see the limit in place. A quick glance now saves doubt later in the week.
Stopping choices
A night off or a season out
Most players fear a pause is permanent, or that a long stop can be undone the next day.
Room to think it over
Some evening you want the lobby to go quiet, and the time-out switch does that: you choose the stretch in your account settings, and sign-in stays blocked until it runs out. Your balance and history wait for you.
A stop that holds
The morning after a hard week, the longest switch in your own account is self-exclusion: you turn it on inside the casino account, it holds for the stretch you agree to, and it cannot be undone early. Sign-in stays closed until the end.
Is BetStop the right stop?
Once you decide enough is enough, the register behind it is BetStop, run by the Australian Government through ACMA, covering licensed online and phone wagering providers for at least 3 months, up to a lifetime. Applying takes about five minutes, and you can nominate a support person. betstop.gov.au
The night you call
Free, confidential voices across Australia
National Gambling Helpline
Late at night, free and confidential counselling still answers, by phone, chat or email. Self-help tools and a directory of local services are there for players and relatives. 1800 858 858 gamblinghelponline.org.au
Gamblers Anonymous Australia
On a hard afternoon, a peer support meeting can help: groups meet across the country for people who gamble, and the person beside you has lived it. gaaustralia.org.au
National Debt Helpline
When the debts pile up, free financial counselling is there for gambling debt: you work through the numbers with someone trained for exactly this. ndh.org.au
The turning point
From a pastime to a pressure
Honest check-ins are part of how we run this place, not a warning tacked on.
Caught early, a habit is still adjustable, and a deposit limit or a short pause set in your account is the first step. Left alone the same pattern gets heavier. Noticing it early keeps the choice in your hands.
Small things you might notice
If two or three of these feel familiar, that is already information worth acting on.
- Chasing a loss long after midnight
- Hiding deposits from your partner
- Borrowing money to keep playing
- Checking the app before your first coffee
- Feeling flat until the next session
- Promising yourself a limit, then skipping it
- Skipping bills or meals to fund play
Support and safeguards
What you take away from these answers
My brother plays too much; who can our family call for help?
+
The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 takes calls from worried relatives as well as players, around the clock and every day of the year. Counsellors there also offer online chat and email, plus a directory of local services. Peer meetings run by Gamblers Anonymous Australia welcome family members too.
How do I shut my account here permanently?
+
Write to [email protected] from your registered email address and ask the support team to close your account for good. They will confirm once it is done, and no further deposits or play can happen on it. If money worries are part of the reason, the National Debt Helpline offers free financial counselling on 1800 007 007.
Does the self-exclusion I picked have to run its full term?
+
Yes. The period you choose at the start stands for its whole length and cannot be cut short partway through. BetStop works the same way on a national level, where early cancellation is only possible after at least three months, with a statutory declaration that you have seen a counsellor or GP.
Why do I have to prove I am 18 or older?
+
Australian law sets the minimum age for gambling at 18, so every account has to be verified before play. That is why photo ID, proof of address and a payment method screenshot are requested during sign-up. The rule protects younger people, and verification here usually takes around 21 hours.
Can a limit I have set be adjusted afterwards?
+
Yes, it can be changed later in the same section of your account where you first set it. Because a limit only works when it is in place before play, think of it as a slow setting rather than a quick one. Setting it during a calm moment keeps the decision out of a losing streak.
