Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Star Casino Online, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While we offer exciting gaming experiences, it's important to approach gambling responsibly and within your means.
Please remember: the odds are always in favour of the house. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gaming is strictly for adults only. In Australia, you must be 18 years of age or older to access and participate in online gaming services.
By using Star Casino Online, you confirm that you are of legal age and meet all eligibility requirements in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Parents and guardians: Please monitor your family's online activity and use parental controls if necessary.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses: Trying to recover money lost by gambling more
- Hiding gambling activity: Concealing the extent of your gambling from friends or family
- Spending more than intended: Regularly gambling longer or wagering more money than planned
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments due to gambling
- Gambling to escape problems: Using gambling as a way to cope with stress, anxiety, or depression
- Unsuccessful attempts to quit: Repeatedly trying and failing to reduce or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling activities
- Physical symptoms: Experiencing anxiety, irritability, or sleep problems related to gambling
- Relationship problems: Arguments with loved ones about your gambling habits
- Financial difficulties: Running out of money, unpaid bills, or mounting debts
If any of these signs apply to you, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Limits
Star Casino Online provides several responsible gaming features to help you stay in control:
Deposit Limits
Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly). Once you've reached your limit, you won't be able to deposit further funds.
Loss Limits
Establish a maximum amount you're prepared to lose. When this limit is reached, your account will be restricted from further wagering.
Reality Checks
Set reminders at regular intervals to check how long you've been gaming and how much you've wagered. These notifications help you maintain awareness and make informed decisions.
Session Time Limits
Define a maximum duration for your gaming sessions. Your account will be temporarily suspended when the time expires.
Self-Exclusion
If you need to take a break from gaming, self-exclusion allows you to voluntarily restrict your account access for a predetermined period (ranging from days to years). During this period, you will not be able to log in or access your account.
To access any of these tools, contact our customer support team or visit your account settings.
