Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gambling

At Hallam Pokies Casino, we prioritize the well-being and safety of our players. We strive to create an environment that promotes balanced gaming habits and encourages responsible gambling practices.

Safe and Balanced Gaming Habits

Gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment rather than a source of income. Set realistic expectations about winning and losing, and never chase losses or get over-excited about wins.

Budgeting for Your Fun

To maintain control, decide on your bankroll before playing and stick to it. Allocate a specific amount for gaming and avoid dipping into essential funds. Remember that even if you have set aside money specifically for gaming, there's no guarantee of winning.

Deposit Limits: Control Over Spending

Deposit limits allow you to set daily or weekly spending limits in advance. This feature gives you control over your spendings and ensures you do not exceed the amount you can afford. To apply deposit limits:

1. Log into your account.
2. Click on 'My Account.'
3. Select 'Deposit Limits.'

Loss Limits: Capping Your Losses

Loss limits enable you to set maximum losses for each session or period of play. This feature helps prevent excessive spending, allowing you to enjoy gaming without risking more than planned.

Setting Up Loss Limits:

1. Log into your account.
2. Navigate to 'My Account.'
3. Select 'Loss Limits.'

1. Log in to your account.
2. Go to "My Account."

Reality Checks and Time Reminders

   • Log into your account.
   • Go to "My Account."
   • Choose 'Time Alerts.'

Cooling-Off Periods and Self-Exclusion

Cooling-off periods give you a temporary break from gaming, allowing you to reassess and manage your habits. If needed, self-exclusion completely blocks access to the platform for up to 6 months or permanently.

Apply For Self-Exclusion:

1. Go into "My Account."
2. Click 'Self Exclusion.'

Age Restrictions

Hallam Pokies Casino adheres to age restrictions for all players. Ensure that you meet our minimum age requirement of 18 years, as specified in the terms and conditions.

1. Reach out to independent support services like the Victorian Responsible Gambling Foundation or the National Association for Gambling Studies.
2. Use online resources provided by organizations dedicated to addressing problem gambling behaviors.

Account Verification and Protection of Vulnerable Players

We protect vulnerable players through various measures, including but not limited to age restrictions and account verification processes during sign-up.
