Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Canberry Arts, we believe that online casino gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Gambling involves risk, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Always gamble within your means and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online casino gaming in Australia is only available to players aged 18 years and over. By accessing our site, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following behaviours in yourself or someone you know, help is available:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Repeatedly trying to cut back or control gambling without success
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount spent
- Gambling to escape problems, stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, study, family, or social responsibilities
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when unable to gamble
- Friends or family expressing concern about your gambling

Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features
Most online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control. These include:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Restrict how long you can play in one session
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing online casinos
- Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your gaming account
We encourage you to use these tools as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
