Responsible Gaming

Gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money or solve financial problems. WD-40 Casino supports a balanced approach and encourages every player to understand their limits, make informed choices and seek help if gambling starts to cause concern.

Gamble responsibly

Responsible gaming means staying in control of how you play, how much you spend and how much time you spend gambling. It also means understanding that casino games are based on chance. Results cannot be predicted or guaranteed, and previous outcomes do not affect future results. A win is never certain, and no strategy can remove the normal risks associated with gambling.

Gamble responsibly Plan your play before you start Recognise signs of concern Support, breaks and account restrictions

WD-40 Casino is intended for adults who choose to gamble for entertainment. Gambling should be treated as a leisure activity, similar to other paid entertainment, and not as a source of income. Do not gamble with money needed for rent, bills, food, education, travel or other essential expenses. You should also avoid using borrowed money, credit intended for necessities or money that belongs to someone else.

Before you play, consider whether gambling fits comfortably within your budget and your personal circumstances. Decide in advance how much time and money you are prepared to spend, and stick to those decisions. A budget should be an amount you can afford to lose without affecting your daily life. If you reach that amount, stop playing rather than trying to recover losses.

Set a personal spending limit before starting a session.
Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from the screen.
Keep gambling separate from essential household spending.
Never chase losses by increasing stakes or playing for longer.
Do not gamble when upset, tired, intoxicated or under pressure.
Remember that an entertaining session can end with a loss.

Gambling while affected by alcohol or other substances can make it harder to make careful decisions. Strong emotions, financial stress and tiredness can have a similar effect. If you are not in a clear and settled state of mind, consider taking a break and returning only when you feel able to make decisions comfortably.

Plan your play before you start

Set limits that suit you

A simple plan can help you keep gambling within safe boundaries. Decide how much you can afford to spend over a chosen period and how long each session will last. Include all gambling activity in your plan, rather than considering each deposit or game in isolation. If you use more than one gambling service, consider your total spending across all services.

Use any responsible gaming controls available through your account or device. These may include deposit limits, spending limits, loss limits, session reminders, time-outs or account closure options. The exact controls, settings and waiting periods may depend on the service and applicable requirements. Read the information shown when selecting a tool so you understand how it works before confirming your choice.

Keep records and take breaks

It can be useful to review your account activity and payment history regularly. Looking at deposits, withdrawals, play time and results may help you understand your habits more clearly. If the amount of time or money you spend is higher than planned, treat that as a reason to pause and reassess your gambling.

Breaks are an important part of safer play. Move away from the game, do something unrelated and avoid returning simply because you feel you need to win. A break should provide space to make a fresh decision, not serve as a short delay before continuing automatically. If you find it difficult to stop when a limit is reached, consider using a longer time-out or account restriction.

Protect your account

Your account should only be used by you. Keep login details private, use appropriate security settings and do not allow another person to gamble through your account. If someone else has access to your account, your spending limits and personal decisions may no longer protect you. Contact the available support channel through the website if you believe your account security has been affected or if you need help applying a safer gaming measure.

Only gamble when you are legally permitted to do so in the place where you are located. You are responsible for checking the rules that apply to you and for providing accurate information where required. If you are under the legal gambling age, do not create an account or attempt to play.

Recognise signs of concern

Gambling can become difficult to manage gradually. You may not notice a problem immediately, particularly if your gambling changes during a period of stress or personal difficulty. Paying attention to your feelings, behaviour and spending can help you act early. There is no need to wait until gambling has caused serious harm before taking a break or asking for support.

Spending more time or money gambling than you intended.
Continuing to gamble after reaching a personal limit.
Trying to win back money that has already been lost.
Feeling restless, anxious or irritable when you cannot gamble.
Hiding gambling activity, deposits or losses from family and friends.
Borrowing money, selling belongings or using essential funds to gamble.
Missing work, study, appointments or social activities because of gambling.
Finding it difficult to concentrate on anything other than gambling.
Gambling to escape sadness, stress, loneliness or other problems.
Feeling regret after playing but continuing to repeat the same pattern.

One sign does not automatically mean that you have a gambling problem, but several signs or any serious concern should be treated carefully. Stop gambling and speak with someone you trust. A partner, family member, friend, doctor or qualified counsellor can provide perspective and practical support. You can also contact an independent gambling support service in Australia for confidential guidance.

If gambling is affecting your finances, consider taking immediate practical steps. Pause gambling, remove saved payment methods where possible, review upcoming bills and ask a trusted person to help you manage money for a period. Do not take out loans or use further credit to cover gambling losses. Independent financial counselling may also help you understand your options.

If you feel overwhelmed, unsafe or at risk of harming yourself or another person, seek urgent help through the appropriate emergency or crisis service in your location. Gambling-related stress can feel intense, but support is available and asking for help is a positive step.

Support, breaks and account restrictions

If you want to reduce or stop gambling, take action as soon as possible. Use the responsible gaming settings available in your account, request a time-out or ask for account closure where those options are provided. You may also wish to use device settings, payment controls or independent blocking tools to create additional distance from gambling websites and applications.

An account restriction is most effective when combined with a personal plan. Tell a trusted person what you are doing, avoid gambling through other accounts and remove easy access to gambling funds. If you close or restrict an account, do not create another account to continue playing. If you have questions about the effect of a restriction, review the relevant account information or contact support through the website before making a request.

People close to a gambler can also be affected. If a family member or friend is concerned about your gambling, listen to what they are saying and consider taking a break. If you are worried about somebody else, offer support without lending money or taking responsibility for their gambling. Encourage them to speak with an independent professional and protect your own financial and emotional wellbeing.

Independent help in Australia

Independent gambling support services in Australia can provide information, counselling, financial guidance and assistance with making a change. Services such as Gambling Help Online may be able to explain available support options, including help for people affected by another person’s gambling. You do not need to identify as having a gambling disorder before contacting a support service.

WD-40 Casino provides general responsible gaming information, but it is not a substitute for professional advice. If you are concerned about your gambling, seek independent support as early as possible. This page should be read together with the website terms and any responsible gaming information presented during account use. Keeping gambling within safe limits is a personal responsibility, and choosing to stop is always an acceptable decision.
