Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Lucky Ones, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. It's important to approach casino games with the understanding that the house always has a mathematical advantage, and outcomes are determined by chance.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Set limits you can afford to lose and stick to them.
Age Verification
Lucky Ones is only available to players who are 18 years of age or older (or the legal age for gambling in your Australian state or territory). We are committed to preventing underage gambling and reserve the right to verify your age at any time. If you are under the legal gambling age, you must not access or use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of the following warning signs:
- Chasing losses: Trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
- Hiding gambling activity: Being secretive about how much you gamble or how much money you've spent
- Gambling with money you can't afford to lose: Using rent, bills, or essential funds for gambling
- Neglecting responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments to gamble
- Increased gambling: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to get the same excitement
- Failed attempts to stop: Repeatedly trying and failing to cut back or quit gambling
- Mood changes: Becoming irritable, anxious, or depressed when not gambling
- Borrowing to gamble: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling activities
- Relationship problems: Arguments with family or friends about your gambling
- Lying about gambling: Being dishonest with loved ones about your gambling habits
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Lucky Ones provides several tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit in a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic notifications during play to remind you how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing your account if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic
To access these tools, log into your Lucky Ones account and visit the Responsible Gaming settings. We encourage you to use these features as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
