Responsible gambling
Every casino on this site is for adults of 18 and over. Pokies and table games are priced to return less than they take, so the only money that belongs in an account is money you can lose without it changing your week.
The tools that work are the ones set before you play. A deposit cap, a session reminder and a loss limit all sit in the account settings at any licensed casino, and a reduction takes effect straight away while an increase waits out a cooling-off period. Self-exclusion goes further and closes access for a fixed term. Warning signs worth taking seriously: staking more to recover a loss, or keeping the hours quiet from people at home.
Help in New Zealand is free and confidential. Gambling Helpline NZ answers on 0800 654 655, seven days, and the Problem Gambling Foundation of New Zealand runs face-to-face and online counselling. Both also support family members, who often make the first call.
