Keep gambling enjoyable and under control
Responsible gaming means making informed choices about when, how often and how much you gamble. Before you play, decide what you can comfortably spend and how much time you are willing to use. Treat that amount as the cost of entertainment, in the same way you might budget for a meal, a film or another leisure activity. Once your planned time or spending limit has been reached, stop playing.
Jump to
Only gamble with money that is available for entertainment after essential expenses have been paid. Do not use money set aside for rent, bills, food, education, savings or other important needs. You should also avoid borrowing money, using credit to continue gambling or selling possessions to fund play. Gambling outcomes are uncertain, and there is no reliable strategy that guarantees a win.
Practical habits for safer play
- Set a gambling budget before you begin and do not increase it during a session.
- Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from the screen.
- Keep gambling separate from everyday spending and household finances.
- Avoid gambling when you are upset, stressed, tired or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
- Do not chase losses by increasing your stakes or playing for longer.
- Remember that wins are not guaranteed and losses cannot be recovered by continuing to play.
- Keep gambling private from children and do not allow other people to use your account.
- Review your gambling activity regularly so that you understand how often you play and how much you spend.
A short break can help you make clearer decisions. If you notice that gambling is taking more time, money or attention than you intended, stop and review your choices before playing again. You can also consider using available account controls to reduce access or take a longer break.
It can be useful to keep a personal record of deposits, withdrawals, sessions and the amount of time spent playing. Looking at your activity in this way may give you a more accurate view than relying on memory. If gambling affects your ability to pay regular expenses or meet personal commitments, stop playing and seek independent help.
Tools and account controls
Depending on the features available to your account, safer gambling controls may help you manage your activity. These can include deposit limits, loss limits, wagering or spending limits, session reminders, time-outs and self-exclusion. Controls can work in different ways, so read the relevant information carefully before confirming a setting.
Deposit and spending limits
A deposit limit can restrict the amount added to an account over a selected period. A spending or loss limit may work differently and may not reflect the same amount as deposits. Choose a limit based on your personal budget rather than on the amount you hope to win. If a limit has a waiting or review period before it takes effect, continue to follow your existing budget during that period.
Time-outs and breaks
A time-out is a temporary break from gambling. It can be useful if you feel distracted, are playing more than planned or simply want time away from your account. During a break, avoid looking for alternative ways to gamble and use the time to consider what led you to take the break. Returning to play should only be considered if gambling remains affordable and manageable for you.
Self-exclusion
Self-exclusion is a stronger option for people who want to prevent themselves from gambling for a chosen period or longer. If you choose self-exclusion, follow the instructions provided and do not try to open or use another account. Self-exclusion is a personal protection measure, but it should be combined with practical support where possible. You may also wish to ask a trusted person to help you manage access to money and gambling devices.
Protecting your account
Your account should only be used by you. Keep login information private and do not give another person access to your account or payment methods. If you believe someone else has accessed your account, stop using it and follow the available account security process. Protecting access can also help you maintain control over your gambling activity.
Account controls are not a substitute for personal budgeting or professional help. If you cannot set a limit, keep to one, or stop gambling when you intend to, take that as a reason to stop and seek support.
Recognising signs of gambling harm
Gambling harm can affect finances, relationships, work, study, physical health and emotional wellbeing. It does not always appear suddenly. Small changes can become more serious over time, particularly when gambling is used to escape problems or manage difficult feelings. Recognising a concern early can make it easier to take action.
Possible warning signs
- Spending more time or money gambling than you planned.
- Trying to win back losses by gambling again, often with larger amounts.
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when you try to stop.
- Thinking about gambling throughout the day or finding it hard to concentrate on other activities.
- Hiding gambling, account activity or losses from family, friends or colleagues.
- Borrowing money, missing payments or using essential funds to continue playing.
- Gambling to cope with stress, loneliness, sadness, anger or other difficult emotions.
- Arguing with people close to you because of gambling.
- Missing work, study, family commitments or sleep because of gambling.
- Feeling regret after gambling but returning to play despite that feeling.
- Selling possessions or taking financial risks to fund gambling.
- Feeling unable to stop even after deciding that you want to stop.
Experiencing one or more of these signs does not mean that you have to manage the situation alone. Stop gambling, protect access to your money and speak with someone you trust. A qualified health professional or gambling support organisation can help you understand what is happening and plan practical next steps. You do not need to wait until losses are severe or relationships are seriously affected before asking for help.
If you are worried about someone else
You may notice changes in a family member, partner, friend or colleague before they acknowledge a problem. Approach the conversation calmly and choose a private time. Focus on what you have observed and how you feel rather than making accusations. Avoid giving money to cover gambling losses, and do not take responsibility for controlling another adult's gambling. Encourage the person to use account controls and seek independent support.
Getting help and staying safe
If gambling is causing stress, financial difficulty or relationship problems, consider speaking with an Australian gambling support service, a counsellor, a psychologist, a GP or another qualified health professional. Support may be available for people who gamble as well as for family members and friends affected by someone else's gambling. You do not need to wait until the situation becomes severe before asking for help.
A support professional can help you create a plan that may include stopping gambling, managing money, addressing debt, improving communication and dealing with the emotions connected with gambling. If financial concerns are involved, consider obtaining independent financial counselling. Do not rely on gambling to repay debts or replace income.
A simple action plan
- Stop gambling for now and move away from the device or website.
- Record any urgent bills, debts or financial commitments that need attention.
- Tell a trusted person what is happening and ask for practical support.
- Use available limits, a time-out or self-exclusion tools.
- Remove saved payment methods and reduce easy access to funds where appropriate.
- Contact an Australian gambling support service or qualified health professional.
- Avoid gambling again until you have reviewed the situation and decided on a safe plan.
Underage and vulnerable people
Gambling is not suitable for children or people who are not legally permitted to gamble. Do not share your account, payment details or devices with anyone who may not be eligible to play. Use appropriate device, payment and account security measures to help prevent unauthorised access. Adults should also be mindful of how gambling activity is discussed and displayed around children.
If you feel overwhelmed, unsafe or at risk of harming yourself or another person, seek urgent assistance through local emergency services or a crisis support service. Your immediate safety comes first. Gambling should never be treated as a solution to financial, personal or emotional problems.
Dv77 Casino encourages players to make careful decisions, use available responsible gaming controls and seek help early when gambling no longer feels enjoyable or manageable. Choosing to take a break is a positive step, and asking for support is a sign of good judgement.
