This Is Vegas Casino Responsible Gaming
Gambling at This Is Vegas Casino should always be viewed as entertainment, not as a way to make money. Games are based on chance, and there is no guaranteed outcome or reliable method for turning gambling into income. Only play with money you can comfortably afford to lose.
Responsible gambling means making informed choices, setting personal boundaries and recognising when a break or additional support may be appropriate. The information below explains the safeguards available to players and the steps you can take to keep gambling enjoyable and within control.
Our Safer Gambling Commitment
This Is Vegas Casino is committed to promoting a safe, balanced and informed approach to online gambling. We encourage players to understand the risks, use the available account controls and treat every wager as an optional entertainment expense.
Gambling should never interfere with essential costs, relationships, employment, education or personal wellbeing. A win is never certain, and losses should not be chased by increasing stakes or continuing to play for longer than planned. Responsible gambling is a shared responsibility, and we provide information and practical tools to help players make considered decisions.
If gambling stops feeling recreational or begins to cause concern, taking immediate action is important. This may include setting stricter limits, taking a temporary break or contacting a qualified support service.
Identifying Gambling Concerns
Problem gambling can develop gradually, and the signs may not always be obvious at first. A player may be experiencing difficulty if gambling occupies a large amount of their thoughts, takes priority over everyday responsibilities or creates financial or emotional pressure.
- Spending more time or money gambling than originally intended.
- Trying to recover losses by placing further bets.
- Borrowing money, selling possessions or using funds intended for essential expenses.
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when unable to gamble.
- Hiding gambling activity or being dishonest about deposits, losses or time spent playing.
- Missing work, study, family commitments or social activities because of gambling.
- Continuing to gamble despite financial, relationship or emotional problems.
One sign does not automatically mean that a person has a gambling disorder, but repeated concerns should not be ignored. Speaking with an independent professional can provide clarity and practical assistance without judgement.
Reviewing Your Limits
Before playing, consider how much money and time you can set aside without affecting your normal obligations. Limits work best when they are decided in advance and respected even when a session is going well or losses have occurred.
- Deposit limits: Set a maximum amount that can be deposited during a chosen period, such as a day, week or month.
- Loss limits: Decide the maximum amount you are prepared to lose and stop playing when that amount has been reached.
- Reality checks: Use reminders to review how long you have been playing and how much activity has taken place.
- Cooling-off periods: Take a temporary break from gambling when you need time away from your account or want to reassess your habits.
- Self-exclusion: Request a longer-term restriction that prevents access to gambling for a selected period when ordinary limits are not enough.
Set limits before depositing whenever possible. If you find that you regularly change or remove limits to continue gambling, this may indicate that a longer break or professional support would be beneficial.
Tools for Safer Play
This Is Vegas Casino provides responsible gambling features designed to help players monitor and manage their activity. These tools are intended to support personal decisions and should be used before concerns become difficult to manage.
- Account deposit controls to help you set a maximum deposit amount for a selected time period.
- Loss management options to help you define an amount you are willing to lose during a specified period.
- Reality check reminders that prompt you to review your playing time and account activity.
- Cooling-off options that allow you to step away from gambling for a temporary period.
- Self-exclusion arrangements for players who need to prevent access to gambling for a longer or defined period.
- Account and transaction information to help you review deposits, withdrawals and gambling activity.
These features should not be regarded as a guarantee against gambling-related harm. If you cannot maintain the limits you set, stop gambling and seek assistance. Restrictions may affect access to your account and should be selected carefully.
Finding Help and Guidance
If gambling is becoming difficult to control, seek professional help as soon as possible. A qualified counsellor or support service can help you understand what is happening, develop a plan and address related financial or emotional pressures. Asking for help is a responsible step, not a failure.
For account-related responsible gambling questions, contact This Is Vegas Casino at [email protected]. Our support team can explain the available account controls and the process for requesting a break or self-exclusion. We cannot replace independent medical, financial or counselling advice.
Independent external support is also available through the following organisations. They are not partners of This Is Vegas Casino and are not operated by or on behalf of the casino:
- Gambling Help Online provides information, counselling and support for people affected by gambling.
- Australian Government - Gambling Support Services provides information about available support options.
The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 is a free and confidential support service for people affected by gambling. Consider contacting the service if you are worried about your own gambling or the gambling of someone close to you.
Keeping Gambling Away From Minors
Only individuals aged 18 or older may use the This Is Vegas Casino website. Underage gambling is not permitted. We may require age or identity information to verify that an account holder meets the minimum age requirement.
Adults must not allow children or other underage individuals to access their account, payment methods or gambling devices. Account credentials should be kept private, and any suspected unauthorised or underage use should be reported promptly.
Gambling is an adult activity involving financial risk. Parents and guardians should discuss the risks with young people and take reasonable steps to prevent access to gambling websites and payment services.
Using Parental Restrictions
Parents and guardians can use device, browser and network controls to reduce the risk of underage access. Available settings may include age restrictions, website blocking, password protection and app or payment controls.
- Keep account passwords, payment details and verification codes confidential.
- Use separate adult user profiles on shared computers, tablets and phones.
- Enable parental controls on household devices and review them regularly.
- Install reputable filtering or blocking software where appropriate.
- Keep gambling applications and websites away from devices used by children.
- Check account activity and payment notifications for anything unexpected.
No technical control is completely effective on its own. Combining device safeguards with supervision, clear family rules and open communication provides a stronger approach to preventing underage gambling.
Practical Ways to Stay Balanced
- Decide your spending and time limits before starting a session.
- Use only money left after essential bills, savings and everyday commitments have been covered.
- Never borrow money or use credit to gamble.
- Do not chase losses by increasing stakes or extending your session.
- Take regular breaks and avoid playing when tired, upset, stressed or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.
- Keep gambling separate from financial planning and never treat expected winnings as income.
- Track deposits, withdrawals, losses and the time spent playing.
- Balance gambling with work, family, social activities, exercise and other interests.
- Talk to someone you trust if gambling begins to cause worry or secrecy.
- Use cooling-off or self-exclusion options immediately if you are struggling to stop.
A short break can help you reassess your reasons for playing and whether gambling still fits comfortably within your life. The aim is not to maximise play, but to maintain control and protect your wider wellbeing.
Keeping This Policy Current
This Is Vegas Casino may review and update this Responsible Gaming policy to reflect changes to website features, internal procedures, player needs or relevant guidance. Any revised version will be made available through the website, and players should review the policy periodically.
Updates may clarify how limits, cooling-off periods, self-exclusion requests or support processes operate. The latest published version will apply from the date stated on the website. If you have questions about the policy or need help using a responsible gambling feature, contact the casino through the available support channel before continuing to play.
