Responsible Gaming

At thedreamingstories.com.au, we believe that gambling should be enjoyable entertainment. We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting players who may be experiencing difficulties. This page provides essential information about gambling responsibly and resources available to help.

What is Responsible Gaming?

Responsible gaming means gambling in a way that is fun, controlled, and within your means. It involves understanding the risks, setting limits, and recognising when gambling may become problematic. Responsible gaming is about making informed decisions and maintaining control over your gambling activities at all times.

Gambling should never be viewed as a source of income or a way to solve financial problems. It is purely a form of entertainment, and you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

It is important to recognise the warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem. If you experience any of the following, please seek help immediately:

Self-Exclusion Tools

Many Australian online casinos offer self-exclusion tools that allow you to restrict your access to gambling. Self-exclusion is a voluntary measure that prevents you from accessing your account for a specified period. This can range from days to years and gives you time to regain control.

If you choose to self-exclude, you will not be able to log in, place bets, or access promotional offers during the exclusion period. We encourage you to speak with casino customer support to activate self-exclusion on your account.

Deposit Limits

Deposit limits are an effective tool for managing your gambling expenditure. Most reputable Australian casinos allow you to set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits on your account. Once you reach your limit, you will be unable to deposit further funds until the period resets.

Setting a deposit limit before you start playing is a sensible approach to responsible gambling. Choose a limit that is comfortable for your budget and stick to it.
