Responsible Gaming

At Richmond Pokies Casino, we understand that responsible gaming is a crucial aspect of our operations. We are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all players.

Safe and Balanced Gaming Habits

Gaming should be treated as entertainment rather than a way to make money. Set a budget before starting your session, and stick to it. This will help you maintain control over your gaming habits and avoid financial difficulties.

Budget Management

Establish a separate fund specifically for gaming, away from other essential expenses. This way, you can monitor your spending and prevent unnecessary financial strain.

Deposit, Loss, Wager, and Session Limits

We offer various tools to assist with safe betting practices:

• Deposit limits: Set maximum amounts that can be deposited into your account within a specified period.
• Loss limits: Restrict the amount of money you can lose in a session or over a set time frame.
• Wagering limits: Control the maximum bets placed during a gaming session.
• Session reminders: Receive notifications to remind you when it's time for a break, helping prevent excessive gambling.

These limits can be adjusted or removed at any time through your account settings. We also provide access to reality checks and cooling-off periods.

Reality Checks

Take control of your gaming with optional reality checks:

• Time spent: Track how long you've been playing.
• Net results: View the balance between winnings and losses.
• Reminders: Receive notifications to log out or take a break, helping prevent excessive gambling.

Reality checks can be set for every 30, 60, or 120 minutes. Adjust them according to your needs in your account settings.

Cooling-off Periods and Self-exclusion Tools

We offer comprehensive self-help measures:

• Cooling-off periods: Temporarily close your account for 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days.
• Self-exclusion: Block access to the platform for a period of 6 months, 1 year, or permanently.

These tools can be set independently and are designed to help manage gaming habits without removing full access completely. If you need additional assistance or want to adjust your limits, please contact our support team at any time.

Account Verification and Age Restrictions

For players' safety and regulatory compliance:

• Age verification: Validate the age of all new account holders.
• Account security measures: Implement strong authentication methods (e.g., two-factor authentication).

Please be aware that some jurisdictions may have specific requirements for player protection, which we strive to adhere to.

• Fair terms: Ensure promotional offers align with licensing regulations.
