Responsible Gaming

At Cashed Casino, we want gambling to remain an enjoyable form of entertainment. Gambling should never be treated as a way to make money, solve financial problems or recover losses. This page explains practical ways to stay in control, recognise when gambling may be causing harm and find appropriate support in Australia.

Cashed Casino operates under licences issued by the Curaçao Gaming Control Board and the Philippine Amusement and Gaming Corporation (PAGCOR), with TLS/SSL encryption securing all financial transactions.

Gamble for entertainment

Gambling involves risk, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Casino games are designed for entertainment, not as an alternative source of income. Outcomes are determined by chance, and previous results do not influence future results. A win does not mean that another win is more likely, while a loss does not make a win due.

Before you play, decide how much time and money you are comfortable spending. Treat that amount as an entertainment expense, similar to the cost of another leisure activity. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and do not use money needed for rent, bills, food, savings, debt repayments or other important commitments.

Set a spending limit before you start and do not increase it during a session.
Set a time limit and take regular breaks away from gambling.
Keep gambling separate from essential household finances.
Avoid gambling when you are upset, stressed, tired or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Never borrow money, use credit intended for essentials or sell possessions to fund gambling.
Do not chase losses by increasing bets or continuing for longer than planned.
Remember that gambling is optional and that taking a break is always acceptable.

It can help to keep a personal record of deposits, withdrawals, time spent playing and overall spending. Reviewing this information can make your gambling habits clearer and help you decide whether your limits remain appropriate. You may also choose to tell someone you trust about your limits so they can support you in keeping to them.

Tools and account controls

Account tools may be available to help you manage your gambling. Depending on the service and your account, these may include deposit, loss, wagering or session limits, reality checks, activity statements, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion options. Available tools, settings and processing arrangements can vary. Please review the information shown in your account and contact the relevant support team if you need help understanding a control.

Limits and cooling-off periods

A limit can help you decide in advance how much you are willing to spend or how long you are willing to play. Choose limits that reflect your personal budget rather than setting them based on a recent win or loss. Once a limit is in place, do not try to work around it by opening another account, using another payment method or asking another person to gamble on your behalf.

A cooling-off period is a temporary break from gambling. It can be useful if you feel distracted by gambling, have exceeded your intended budget or simply want time away from your account. During a break, avoid creating another account or using another gambling service to continue playing.

Self-exclusion

If you are concerned that you cannot control your gambling, self-exclusion may be appropriate. Self-exclusion is a formal request to prevent or restrict access to an account or gambling service for a selected period or, where available, longer. It should be used together with practical steps such as removing saved payment methods, blocking gambling websites and applications, and asking a trusted person for support.

Self-exclusion is not intended to be bypassed. Do not open another account, provide access to someone else’s account or ask another person to place bets for you. If you wish to discuss account restrictions or available options, use the support channel provided on the website. No service can remove the risks associated with gambling, so consider seeking independent advice as well.

Recognising signs of gambling harm

Gambling harm can affect anyone, including people who have gambled without problems in the past. The issue is not necessarily the amount of money involved. Gambling may become harmful when it affects your finances, relationships, work, study, health or general wellbeing.

Spending more time or money gambling than you intended.
Trying to win back money after a loss or feeling unable to stop during a session.
Increasing the amount you gamble to achieve the same excitement.
Hiding gambling activity, losses or transactions from family, friends or colleagues.
Borrowing money, missing payments or experiencing financial stress because of gambling.
Feeling restless, irritable or anxious when you try to reduce or stop gambling.
Neglecting work, study, relationships, sleep, health or other responsibilities.
Gambling to escape sadness, stress, loneliness or other difficult feelings.
Returning to gambling after deciding to take a break.
Feeling guilt, shame, hopelessness or distress connected with gambling.

If any of these signs sound familiar, take them seriously. Stop gambling, apply a break or self-exclusion where available, and speak with someone you trust. You do not need to wait for a crisis before asking for help. An independent gambling support service, financial counsellor, health professional or trusted person can help you understand your options without judgement.

If gambling has contributed to thoughts of self-harm, suicide or immediate danger, stop gambling and seek urgent assistance through local emergency services or a crisis support service in Australia. If possible, stay with someone you trust and tell them clearly that you need help.

Protecting young people and others

Gambling services are for adults who meet the applicable legal age and other eligibility requirements. Young people must not access or use a gambling account. Keep your login details, payment methods and devices secure, and do not allow another person to use your account. You are responsible for taking reasonable steps to prevent unauthorised access.

Use strong, unique account credentials and do not share passwords or verification information. Log out when using a shared device, keep software updated and review account activity for anything you do not recognise. If you believe another person has accessed your account, contact the website’s support team promptly and change your credentials.

Gambling should not be used as a way to manage emotional distress or financial difficulty. If you are gambling because you feel under pressure, speak with a qualified support provider about the underlying issue. Financial counselling may help with budgeting, debts and repayment planning, while health professionals can assist with anxiety, depression, stress or other concerns.

Responsible gambling is a shared responsibility. Cashed Casino provides general information and may offer account controls, but we cannot assess your personal circumstances or guarantee that gambling will remain risk-free. Please make decisions based on your own situation, follow applicable Australian laws and seek independent advice whenever you are unsure.

If you are concerned about your gambling, do not wait until losses become larger or relationships become affected. Take a break today, review your account controls and contact a trusted person or an appropriate support service. Asking for help is a practical and positive step towards regaining control.
