Responsible Gaming

At 7Signs Casino, gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or manage financial pressure. Responsible gaming means understanding the risks, making informed choices and keeping gambling within limits that suit your circumstances.

Gamble for entertainment

Gambling involves risk, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Casino games are designed for entertainment, and outcomes are determined by chance. Previous results do not change the result of a future game. A win does not mean another win is more likely, and a loss does not mean that a win is due. Keeping this in mind can help you make decisions based on realistic expectations.

Gamble for entertainment Set limits and take control Recognise the warning signs Support for you and others

Only gamble with money you can afford to lose after essential costs have been covered. Gambling should not affect your ability to pay for rent or mortgage payments, food, utilities, transport, education, medical care or other regular commitments. It should also not be funded with money intended for family needs, savings goals or debt repayments.

Practical habits for safer play

Decide how much time and money you are comfortable spending before you start.
Treat your gambling budget as an entertainment cost, not an investment.
Keep a record of deposits, stakes, wins and losses so you understand your overall position.
Take regular breaks and avoid playing for longer than planned.
Do not chase losses by increasing stakes or continuing after your planned session has ended.
Avoid gambling when you are upset, stressed, tired, under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or trying to solve a financial problem.
Do not borrow money, sell possessions or use credit to continue gambling.
Never assume that a strategy, system or betting pattern can guarantee a result in a game based on chance.

There may be times when gambling feels less enjoyable or begins to take more attention than intended. Acting early is often easier than waiting for problems to become serious. You can pause, review your habits and seek support at any time.

Set limits and take control

Planning limits before gambling can help you stay in control. Consider setting a separate entertainment budget and a time limit for each session. Once a limit has been reached, stop playing rather than changing it in the moment. A limit is most useful when it is decided calmly and respected consistently.

Account and session controls

Where available, responsible gaming features may allow you to manage your activity. Depending on the service and your account, these features can include deposit limits, spending limits, loss limits, session reminders, time limits, cooling-off periods or temporary account breaks. The features available, how they operate and when changes take effect may vary. Review the relevant account information before using them.

Choose a limit that reflects your actual budget, rather than an amount you hope to win.
Allow enough time for a limit or restriction to take effect where an activation period applies.
Do not create another account or use another person’s account to get around a restriction.
If you feel unable to stop, consider taking a longer break or requesting self-exclusion.
Review your activity regularly and lower your limits if your circumstances change.

Self-exclusion is a stronger step for people who want to stop gambling for a defined period or longer. A self-exclusion request may restrict access to an account and gambling services for the selected period. Read the terms of the request carefully before confirming it. Self-exclusion is intended to support a decision to stop, but it should be combined with practical steps such as removing saved payment methods, blocking gambling-related access where possible and telling someone you trust.

Responsible gaming tools are not a substitute for professional help. If you are finding it difficult to keep within limits, seek support promptly. Do not delay until gambling has caused financial, relationship, work or health problems.

Recognise the warning signs

Gambling can become difficult to manage gradually. A person may first spend a little more time or money than planned, then find that the behaviour becomes a regular source of stress. Warning signs can affect the person gambling as well as their family, friends and colleagues.

Possible signs of gambling harm

Spending more money or time gambling than you intended.
Trying to win back money that has been lost.
Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when not gambling.
Thinking about gambling during work, study, family time or other important activities.
Hiding gambling activity, losses, deposits or account information from people close to you.
Borrowing money, using credit or missing bills because of gambling.
Selling possessions or taking money from savings to continue playing.
Gambling to escape stress, sadness, loneliness, anger or other difficult feelings.
Arguing with family or friends about gambling.
Neglecting work, study, health, sleep or responsibilities.
Making repeated promises to stop or cut back but being unable to do so.
Feeling guilt, shame or distress after gambling and then returning to play.

One sign does not automatically mean that someone has a gambling disorder, but any concern is worth taking seriously. Consider stopping gambling, recording what has been happening and speaking privately with a qualified support service. A counsellor can help you understand your options without judgement.

If you have lost money

Losses can feel upsetting, but trying to recover them through further gambling can increase the risk of greater loss. Stop the session, avoid making immediate decisions and do not increase your stakes. Review your finances when you are calm. If bills, debts or essential expenses are affected, contact a qualified financial counsellor or a relevant community support service for guidance.

Support for you and others

You do not need to manage gambling concerns alone. Speaking with someone early can make it easier to set boundaries and make a plan. Support may be available through gambling counselling services, mental health professionals, financial counsellors, community organisations and state or territory support services in Australia. Look for an appropriate service through official Australian health or gambling support resources.

When asking for help, you can discuss how often you gamble, how much money or time is involved, what triggers gambling and whether it has affected your relationships, work, health or finances. You do not need to wait until you have a serious problem before seeking advice. Support can be confidential, and many services can explain available options before you decide what to do next.

Supporting someone else

If you are worried about a family member, partner, friend or colleague, choose a calm and private time to talk. Focus on what you have noticed and how it affects you, rather than blaming or shaming the person. You can encourage them to seek professional support, but you cannot control another adult’s gambling behaviour. Protect your own finances and wellbeing by setting clear boundaries and obtaining advice about shared accounts, bills and debts.

Use clear, respectful language and listen without arguing about individual wins or losses.
Avoid giving money to cover gambling losses or debts without independent financial advice.
Do not share your account, payment details or personal identification documents.
Seek support for yourself if another person’s gambling is causing stress, conflict or financial harm.
If there is an immediate risk to someone’s safety, contact emergency services or an appropriate crisis support service in your area.

Protecting young people

Gambling services are intended for adults who meet the applicable legal age requirements. Do not allow anyone under the required age to use your account, view payment details or gamble. Keep passwords, devices and payment methods secure, and use parental or device controls where appropriate. If you suspect that an underage person has accessed an account, stop the activity and report the concern through the available support or account channels.

7Signs Casino supports informed and responsible choices. If gambling is no longer enjoyable, is affecting your finances or relationships, or feels difficult to control, take a break and seek assistance. Choosing to stop is a valid and positive decision.
