Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Wentworth Point Community, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself viewing gambling as income or a solution to financial difficulties, please seek help immediately.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting our players in maintaining a healthy relationship with online gaming.
Age Verification
Online gaming in Australia is only for individuals aged 18 years and over. By accessing Fair Go Casino Australia through this site, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction.
We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not participate in gaming activities.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognize any of the following signs in your gaming behaviour? If so, it may be time to seek support:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activities from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Neglecting work, study, or personal relationships due to gaming
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent gaming
- Experiencing anxiety or depression related to gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gaming activities
- Unable to set limits on time or money spent gaming
- Gaming to escape problems or difficult emotions
If you identify with any of these signs, please reach out to a support service immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most reputable online gaming platforms offer tools to help you maintain control. Consider using:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to deposit within a specified timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you are comfortable losing in a given period
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or session cut-offs to prevent extended gaming sessions
- Reality Checks: Enable pop-up reminders during gameplay to help you track time and spending
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gaming platforms when you need a break
If your chosen platform does not offer these tools, we encourage you to seek alternative providers or contact support for assistance.
