Five built-in tools

Fixed before play, not after

Worth opening when play stops feeling like entertainment and starts feeling like a bill you owe.

A spending ceiling

Caps how much you pay in, so the figure is chosen before play rather than during a losing run. Set it up before your first deposit.

Chasing a loss

Stops you once losses reach a level you chose in advance, which keeps a bad evening from turning into a bad month.

A clock that speaks up

Sends a notice at intervals you choose, so a long session becomes a visible one. Switch it on if clock time disappears while you play.

Need time away?

Locks you out for a break you decide on, with play paused rather than ended. Choose it when you want distance without closing the door.

Closing play entirely

Closes your account to play for good or a long stretch, and is the step after smaller controls. BetStop is separate and covers wagering accounts.

Limits set calmly

The number you choose, saved in the account

Worrying the menu is buried? These four moves take a few minutes inside your own account.

Right account, right person

Open your profile from the top of the screen and check that your name and email match the details you registered.

Not payments, but controls

Inside the profile, look for the responsible gambling area rather than the payments tab; that is where every control sits.

Deposit or loss limit?

Choose the limit that matches your worry, deposit or loss, and set it before you play rather than after a bad night.

Did the limit save?

Confirm the change, then reopen the section to see the figure saved; a limit that is not visible is not active.

Free and confidential

Free help in Australia, outside the casino

Lets you see who answers free of charge, and that nothing you say reaches us.

National Gambling Helpline

Counsellors answer day or night on the phone and by chat, free of charge, for players and for relatives. Nothing you say is passed on to us, and calling is confidential. 1800 858 858 gamblinghelponline.org.au

Gamblers Anonymous Australia

Meetings across Australia where people who gamble, and the families beside them, sit together and talk. Groups meet locally, so the easiest way to find yours is to look them up. gaaustralia.org.au

National Debt Helpline

Free financial counselling for gambling debt sits with them on weekday business hours. Ring them when repayments are already crowding out everything else in the household budget. ndh.org.au

Habits worth catching early

Recognising these patterns early is what keeps a pastime from turning into a problem, because the cost grows quietly. A deposit limit set before play, or a short pause, is the first step, and it is a simple one.

Read through these and notice which ones sound like your own week.

You found gambling on a family device

Who confirms my age? No account opens for anyone under 18, so date of birth is checked at sign-up. Photo ID, proof of address and a card image are verified before the first withdrawal goes out.

Passcode on shared devices. Filtering software on a shared phone or laptop keeps gambling pages away from children. Device settings can be locked with a passcode that younger family members do not know.

How do I broach it? A calm, blame-free talk about money and time usually lands better than an argument. Relatives can ring the National Gambling Helpline at any hour to plan that conversation.

Choose the length your situation needs

Cooling-off period. A cooling-off period is the shortest break and suits a stretch of hours or days once play starts feeling like too much. Open it from the account controls, and access stays shut until the period you chose has passed.

Close me out? Self-exclusion in the account shuts out deposits and play for a long period of your choosing. It is started from your account settings, and once it begins it stays in place, so pick a length you can accept.

Locked out everywhere. BetStop is the Australian Government register run through ACMA, and its shortest break is 3 months, up to lifetime. Applying online takes about 5 minutes and you may name someone supporting you. Businesses covered cannot take your bets. betstop.gov.au

Limits, answered

Check the answers that matter

For the moment you are weighing a limit, a pause or a full stop.

Why does the casino ask for my age before anything else?+

Palazzofortuna Casino opens accounts only for adults aged 18 or over, so a photo ID is checked before your first deposit. This keeps play with the people the law allows. No account is verified without it.

What does a short pause actually change in my account?+

A cooling-off period blocks your play for the length you choose, while your balance and history stay where they are. Once that period ends, the account unlocks on its own and play is possible again. Nothing is removed in the meantime.

Can I change a limit later, and where would I do that?+

Deposit and loss limits can be adjusted later in the profile area of the account, the same place they were set. Changing one takes effect there and then, so the new figure replaces the old one. It is worth setting the amount before a session, not in reaction to a loss.

Can a self-exclusion be cancelled before it runs out?+

No. Once chosen, a self-exclusion stands for the whole period you picked and cannot be lifted early in the account. Treat the period as fixed when you decide, because it is.

How do I shut my account for good rather than pause it?+

Write to [email protected] from your registered email and ask for permanent closure. Support confirms the account is shut and nothing further is possible on it. Each player may hold one account only, so a closed one is not reopened.

Does a self-exclusion here stop me betting at other casinos?+

No. A self-exclusion set on this account covers Palazzofortuna Casino alone. To be blocked across licensed online and phone wagering providers in Australia, you register with BetStop, the national register run by the Australian Government.
