Responsible Gambling


Gambling in Australia has grown significantly in Australia in recent years, with the increased accessibility of gambling sites – which has occurred largely through the development of Australian betting apps which make it incredibly easy to punt on the go.

That growth in popularity has meant that the concept of responsible gambling has gained an increasing amount of attention, and virtually all major betting sites in Australia now offer a range of different gambling tools to help their customers ensure they are gambling responsibly.

We will go into more specific detail about these responsible gambling tools later on in this page. For now, however, let’s take a look at some of the broader tools you have to get help if you’re struggling to gamble responsibly.

Where to get help
There are a number of different places where you can get help limiting your gambling, or helping you to ensure that you gamble responsibly. Some of these responsible gambling services are listed in this section.

Different responsible gambling tools
As mentioned earlier on this responsible gambling page, there are a number of different responsible gambling tools offered by bookmakers to help you to keep your gambling in check. Not all bookmakers will offer all of these tools, but typically the larger betting agencies will have some if not all of them available.

The information contained here aims to address the first two of these criteria. As we promote the services of gambling providers on this site, we believe it is important that our customers are made aware of the risks associated with gambling, as well as where they can find further advice and support if needed.

Online gambling should be an entertaining and fun way to spend your time. However, when it stops being fun, it’s time to take a break or consider quitting altogether.

At Bonus Bet Kings, we promote responsible gambling. All the casinos and sports betting sites we partner with offer options to set deposit limits or self-exclude for a certain period or permanently.

Signs of gambling problem

The definition of gambling problem, addiction or disorder varies in different countries and sources. The NHS regognises that being a compulsive gambler can harm your health and relationships, as well as leaving you in serious debt, and they provide treatment and support for people with a gambling addition.

If you are worried that you have a gambling problem the NHS recommends that you ask yourself the following:

  • Do you bet more than you can afford to lose?
  • Do you need to gamble with larger amounts of money to get the same feeling?
  • Have you tried to win back money you have lost (chasing losses)?
  • Have you borrowed money or sold anything to get money to gamble?
  • Have you wondered whether you have a problem with gambling?
  • Has your gambling caused you any health problems, including feelings of stress or anxiety?
  • Have other people criticised your betting or told you that you had a gambling problem (regardless of whether or not you thought it was true)?
  • Has your gambling caused any financial problems for you or your household?
  • Have you ever felt guilty about the way you gamble or what happens when you gamble?
