Responsible Gaming
Gambling should remain entertainment
Casino games are based on chance, and every result is independent. There is no guaranteed strategy for winning, and previous results do not make a future result more or less likely. A win cannot be expected simply because you have been playing for a long time, and a loss cannot be recovered by continuing to gamble. Treat every wager as entertainment spending that may not be returned.
Before you play, consider whether gambling fits comfortably within your budget and your other responsibilities. Only use money that you can afford to lose after essential costs have been paid. Do not use money set aside for rent, bills, food, education, medical care or other important needs. Gambling with borrowed money, credit intended for essential expenses or money belonging to someone else can increase financial and personal harm.
Helpful habits
- Set a spending limit before you start and do not increase it during a session.
- Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from the screen.
- Keep gambling separate from everyday spending and household finances.
- Avoid gambling when you are upset, stressed, tired, affected by alcohol or affected by other substances.
- Do not chase losses or treat gambling as a way to earn income.
- Remember that breaks, wins and losses do not change the odds of future games.
- Keep your account details private and never allow another person to gamble through your account.
Recognising signs of concern
Gambling can become difficult to control gradually. A single sign does not necessarily mean that someone has a gambling problem, but repeated changes in behaviour or mood should be taken seriously. You may wish to review your gambling if you are spending more time or money than planned, feeling unable to stop, or thinking about gambling throughout the day.
Possible warning signs
- Gambling with more money than you intended to spend.
- Increasing your stakes to achieve the same excitement.
- Trying to win back money after a loss.
- Borrowing money, selling belongings or missing payments to continue gambling.
- Hiding gambling activity, losses or account information from people close to you.
- Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when trying to reduce or stop gambling.
- Missing work, study, sleep, family activities or other commitments because of gambling.
- Arguing with family or friends about gambling or its financial effects.
- Feeling guilt, shame, stress or low mood after gambling.
- Using gambling to escape personal problems or difficult emotions.
If any of these signs sound familiar, consider stopping play and speaking with someone you trust. You do not need to wait until a serious problem has developed before asking for help. Support is available for people who gamble, as well as family members, friends and others affected by gambling.
Account controls and taking a break
Tools that help you manage play may be available through your Avantgarde Casino account or by contacting the relevant support team. Depending on the service and your circumstances, these may include deposit limits, wagering or spending limits, session reminders, activity information, cooling-off periods and account closure or self-exclusion options. Availability and operation can vary, so review the information shown in your account and the applicable terms before using a control.
A limit is most useful when it is chosen before gambling begins. Choose an amount and time period that reflects your budget, and avoid changing the setting simply because you are losing or want to continue playing. If you set a break, account restriction or self-exclusion, do not attempt to avoid it by opening another account or using another person's account. Tell people close to you about your decision if their support may help.
If you want to stop
- Stop gambling and move away from the website or app.
- Use the available account closure, break or self-exclusion option, or ask the support team about the options available to you.
- Remove saved payment details where appropriate and review access to funds used for gambling.
- Tell a trusted person what is happening and ask them to help you maintain your decision.
- Contact an independent gambling support service or a qualified health professional for confidential assistance.
Account controls are not a substitute for professional support. If you are concerned about gambling, financial stress or your mental health, seek help as early as possible. If you feel at immediate risk of harming yourself or another person, contact emergency services in Australia or attend the nearest emergency department.
Support and safer play information
Australian players can access independent information and support through recognised gambling-help services, state and territory services, community organisations, financial counsellors and health professionals. These services can provide advice about reducing or stopping gambling, managing urges, dealing with financial impacts and supporting family members. You can search for an appropriate service in your state or territory or speak with your doctor about available referrals.
Financial difficulty can make gambling concerns feel overwhelming. A qualified financial counsellor may be able to help you understand bills, debts, budgeting and communication with providers. Avoid relying on gambling to repay debts, and be cautious of anyone promising guaranteed winnings or a quick way to recover losses.
Our approach
Avantgarde Casino provides responsible gaming information to help players make informed choices. Players are expected to comply with applicable age, identity and account requirements and to use the service only where lawful. We may take steps under our procedures and applicable requirements where activity raises responsible gaming, account safety or legal concerns. We cannot promise that any tool will prevent gambling-related harm, so personal awareness and early support remain important.
Please read the applicable account terms and any responsible gaming information available on the website before playing. If you have questions about limits, breaks, self-exclusion or closing your account, contact the available customer support channel through the website. Do not continue gambling while waiting for assistance if you are worried about your behaviour or spending.
Responsible gaming also involves protecting your account and making sure that gambling remains a personal choice. Do not share passwords, payment access or account credentials. If another person is pressuring you to gamble, using your account or asking you to conceal activity, stop and seek assistance. Parents, partners, friends and other trusted people may be able to help you recognise changes in behaviour and support a decision to take a break.
It can be useful to review your gambling from time to time, even if you currently feel in control. Check how much time and money you have spent, whether gambling has affected other priorities and whether you are following the limits you set. If your behaviour has changed or your limits are becoming difficult to maintain, pause gambling and seek independent advice. Asking for support early is a practical step and does not require you to prove that you have a serious problem.
