Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Fair Go Casino, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It should never be viewed as a way to earn money, pay bills, or solve financial problems. We are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling practices for all our players in Australia.
Age Verification
Fair Go Casino is strictly for players aged 18 years and over (or the legal gambling age in your state/territory). We conduct rigorous age verification checks during registration and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal age, please do not attempt to create an account or place bets.

If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, it may indicate a gambling problem:

- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the time and money spent gambling
- Unable to reduce or stop gambling despite repeated attempts
- Neglecting work, school, family, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling activities
- Experiencing anxiety, depression, or mood swings related to gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Spending more time and money on gambling than originally intended
- Friends or family expressing concern about your gambling habits
Self-Help Tools
Fair Go Casino provides a range of tools to help you maintain control over your gambling:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a limit on the amount you are willing to lose during a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders during play about the time and money you've spent
- Time-Out: Take a voluntary break from gambling for a set period (from a few hours to several weeks)
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account
