Responsible Gambling
We are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling. While level up pokies and online casino games are a fun form of entertainment for most players, we recognise that gambling can become a problem for some people.
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
Online gambling, including pokies, should always be treated as a form of entertainment — not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Set a budget before you play, and never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose. Always play within your means.
Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these warning signs that gambling may be becoming problematic:
- Spending more money or time gambling than you intended
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
- Chasing losses by continuing to gamble to win back money
- Lying to friends or family about gambling habits
- Neglecting work, relationships, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
Tools for Safer Play
Reputable casinos like LevelUp Casino offer a range of responsible gambling tools to help players stay in control:
- Deposit Limits – Set daily, weekly, or monthly caps on how much you deposit
- Loss Limits – Restrict the maximum amount you can lose in a session
- Session Time Limits – Receive reminders when you have been playing for a set duration
- Cool-Off Periods – Take a short break from gambling for a defined period
- Self-Exclusion – Voluntarily exclude yourself from the casino for an extended period
- Reality Checks – On-screen alerts showing how long you have been playing
