Responsible Gaming

Yabby Casino supports a balanced approach to gambling. Gambling should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to make money, solve financial problems or manage stress. This page provides practical information to help you make informed decisions, stay in control and seek support if gambling stops being enjoyable.

Gamble for entertainment

Gambling involves risk, and losses can occur. There is no guaranteed strategy, system or outcome that can ensure a win. Games are based on chance or other factors outside your complete control, so you should only gamble with money you can afford to lose. Never treat gambling as an investment or as a reliable source of income.

Contents

Before you play, decide how much time and money you are comfortable spending. Consider this amount the cost of entertainment. Once your budget has been used, stop playing rather than trying to recover losses. Taking a break can help you keep gambling in perspective and make decisions without pressure.

Practical habits for safer gambling

Set a spending limit before you start and keep to it.
Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from the screen.
Keep gambling separate from essential household expenses, rent, bills and savings.
Do not borrow money, use credit intended for other purposes or sell possessions to gamble.
Avoid gambling when you are upset, stressed, tired or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Do not chase losses by increasing bets or continuing to play after your planned session ends.
Keep your gambling private from children and do not allow anyone under 18 to use your account.
Review your activity regularly so that your spending and time remain within your plan.

A win does not mean that another win is due, and a loss does not mean that a win is guaranteed next. Previous results do not predict future results. Be cautious of claims that suggest a game can be beaten or that a particular betting pattern will remove risk.

Recognising when gambling may be a problem

Problem gambling can affect people in different ways. It may develop gradually, and a person may not notice the impact until gambling has affected their finances, relationships, work, study or wellbeing. Recognising early warning signs can make it easier to take action.

Possible warning signs

Spending more time or money gambling than you planned.
Trying to win back money that has already been lost.
Increasing the amount of a bet to achieve the same excitement.
Feeling restless, irritable or uncomfortable when you try to stop.
Thinking about gambling frequently or finding it difficult to focus on other activities.
Hiding gambling activity, losses or account transactions from family or friends.
Borrowing money, missing payments or using money needed for essentials.
Gambling to escape sadness, stress, loneliness, boredom or other difficult feelings.
Arguing with people close to you because of gambling.
Continuing to gamble even though it is causing financial, personal or emotional harm.

One warning sign may be enough to justify a pause and an honest review of your gambling. You do not need to wait for serious financial or personal harm before asking for help. Speaking with someone you trust or a professional support service can provide perspective and practical options.

If you are worried about someone else

If a friend, partner or family member may be experiencing gambling harm, choose a calm time to talk. Explain what you have noticed without blaming or shaming them, and encourage them to seek independent support. Protect shared finances where appropriate, avoid lending money to cover gambling losses and seek advice for yourself as well. You cannot control another person’s gambling, but you can set clear boundaries and look after your own wellbeing.

Tools to help you stay in control

Depending on the account and services available to you, responsible gambling tools may include spending limits, deposit limits, loss limits, session reminders, breaks from gambling or self-exclusion. These tools are designed to support decisions made in advance. They should be used alongside a personal budget and should not be treated as a guarantee that gambling will be risk-free.

Consider using a limit before you play

A limit can help you define the maximum amount or time you are prepared to commit. Set it before gambling, when you are thinking clearly, and do not increase it simply because you have lost or want to continue playing. If a limit is available through your account, check how it works before relying on it, including when it takes effect and whether it applies to particular products or activities.

Take a break or self-exclude

If you want to stop gambling for a period, consider using an available time-out or self-exclusion option. Self-exclusion is a firm decision to prevent or restrict access for a selected period or until further review, subject to the applicable process. Once you request a restriction, do not try to bypass it by opening another account or using another person’s account. If you believe you need a longer-term change, independent gambling support can help you plan the next steps.

Protect your account

Use your own account and keep your login information confidential.
Do not share access with another person or allow anyone else to gamble on your behalf.
Check account activity and payment records regularly.
Contact the site through the available support channel if you notice activity you do not recognise.
Keep devices and payment methods secure, especially if other people can access them.

If you are unable to control your gambling, stop playing and seek help rather than relying only on willpower. Account tools can assist with prevention, but professional and personal support may also be necessary.

Support and further help

Help is available for people affected by gambling, including players, partners, family members and friends. Australian players can contact a recognised gambling support service in their state or territory, or use an Australian online gambling support service. These services can offer confidential information, counselling, financial guidance and assistance with planning a break from gambling. You can seek help even if you are unsure whether your gambling is a problem.

If gambling has created financial pressure, consider speaking with a qualified financial counsellor before taking on new debt or making further deposits. If gambling is affecting your mental health, discuss it with a health professional. If you feel at immediate risk of harming yourself or someone else, contact emergency services or an appropriate crisis support service in your area without delay.

Our approach
