Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

Online pokies are designed for entertainment purposes only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always set limits on your time and spending.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to participate in online gambling. If you are under the legal age, please do not use our services. AspiHelp.com is committed to preventing underage gambling.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you recognise any of the following signs, you may have a gambling problem. Please seek help immediately:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding your gambling activities from friends or family
• Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
• Experiencing anxiety or irritability when trying to cut down
• Gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
• Neglecting work, study, or relationships due to gambling
• Lying about the extent of your gambling activities
• Feeling unable to control your gambling
• Gambling larger amounts to achieve the same excitement

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

• Deposit Limits: Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on the amount you can deposit
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose
• Time Limits: Set session time limits to help you manage your gambling time
