Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Safe Gaming

At friendsofgtmg.com, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Fair Go Casino and all gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only—never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to gamble, please do so within your means and in control.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your state) to gamble in Australia. By accessing Fair Go Casino, you confirm that you meet this legal requirement. Underage gambling is illegal and harmful. Parents and guardians are encouraged to monitor online activity and discuss the risks of gambling with young people.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Gambling should remain fun and within your control. If you notice any of the following signs, you may be developing a gambling problem:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money you've lost
• Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, bills, groceries)
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about the time and money spent gambling
• Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or sadness
• Difficulty controlling the amount of time or money spent gambling
• Neglecting work, study, family, or social commitments due to gambling
• Borrowing money or going into debt to finance gambling
• Experiencing relationship conflicts related to gambling
• Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
• Feeling irritable or anxious when unable to gamble

If you recognize these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Player Controls

Fair Go Casino provides tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose per session or week
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders during play about how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account and all Fair Go Casino services
• Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account
• Take a Break: Use cooling-off periods to step back from gambling

We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain a safe and enjoyable gaming experience.
