Responsible Gaming

Eth Casino is committed to supporting safer gambling. Gambling should be an entertainment activity, not a way to make money, solve financial problems or cope with stress. Set limits before you play, understand the risks and only gamble with money and time you can afford to lose.

Eth Casino operates under a licence issued by the Anjouan Offshore Finance Authority (AOFA), reference number ALSI-202505005-FI1, and employs responsible gaming options to support player protection.

Gamble for entertainment

Gambling involves risk, and there is no guaranteed way to win. Every bet can result in a loss, including bets placed on games that appear familiar or predictable. Past results, winning streaks and near misses do not change the outcome of a future game. Random results cannot be controlled by a strategy, pattern or betting system.

Before using Eth Casino, decide how much money and time you are comfortable spending. Treat this amount as an entertainment cost rather than an investment. Once your planned budget or session time has been reached, stop playing. Do not increase your spending to recover losses, and do not use money intended for rent, bills, food, education, savings or other essential expenses.

Only gamble with money you can afford to lose.
Set a spending limit and time limit before you begin.
Keep gambling separate from household and essential finances.
Take regular breaks and avoid playing when tired, upset or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
Do not borrow money, sell belongings or use credit to gamble.
Never chase losses by increasing your stakes or playing for longer.
Remember that gambling is not a reliable way to earn income.

It can also help to keep a record of deposits, withdrawals, bets and time spent playing. A clear record may make your gambling habits easier to understand and can help you identify when your activity is increasing. Consider discussing your plans with someone you trust, particularly if you find it difficult to follow your own limits.

Account controls and taking a break

Eth Casino may provide account tools designed to help you manage your gambling. Depending on the service and the options available to you, these may include deposit limits, wagering or loss controls, session reminders, account activity information, cooling-off periods and self-exclusion. These tools are intended to support informed decisions, but they do not remove the risks of gambling or guarantee that you will stay within a chosen budget.

Use account controls before you start playing, rather than waiting until you feel you are losing control. Choose limits that are realistic for your circumstances and review them carefully before confirming any change. Some limits or restrictions may take effect immediately, while others may be subject to a delay or other conditions. The applicable information will be shown during the relevant account process.

Cooling-off and self-exclusion

A cooling-off period is a temporary break from gambling. Self-exclusion is a stronger restriction intended to prevent access for a selected period or until a specified process has been completed. If you decide to take a break or self-exclude, do not attempt to create another account, use another person’s account or ask someone else to place bets for you. These actions can undermine the purpose of the restriction and may breach the applicable terms.

If you want to stop gambling, contact the available support channel through your account or the website and clearly state that you want assistance with a break or self-exclusion. Do not continue gambling while waiting for help. You can also ask your bank or payment provider whether gambling-related transaction controls are available. Consider removing saved payment details, limiting access to funds and telling a trusted person about your decision.

Decide whether you need a short break, a longer break or self-exclusion.
Use the relevant account control or request assistance through the available support process.
Avoid opening another account or gambling elsewhere during the restriction.
Tell someone you trust and ask them to help you maintain the break.
Seek professional support if gambling has affected your wellbeing, relationships or finances.

Recognising gambling harm

Gambling harm can develop gradually, and people may not notice changes in their behaviour at first. The following signs may indicate that gambling is becoming difficult to control. One sign alone does not provide a diagnosis, but several signs should be taken seriously.

Spending more money or time gambling than you intended.
Thinking about gambling frequently or feeling restless when you cannot play.
Chasing losses or believing that a win is needed to put things right.
Increasing bets or deposits to achieve the same excitement.
Hiding or minimising gambling from family, friends or colleagues.
Borrowing money, missing payments or using essential funds to gamble.
Feeling anxious, guilty, irritable, depressed or distressed because of gambling.
Gambling to escape problems, loneliness or difficult emotions.
Arguing with people close to you because of gambling.
Neglecting work, study, health, sleep or other responsibilities.
Trying to stop or cut back but being unable to do so.
Returning to gambling after deciding to take a break.

If any of these signs feel familiar, stop gambling and seek support. Financial losses are not recovered by continuing to play, and further gambling can increase the problem. A trusted friend, family member, health professional or gambling support service can help you make a plan. You do not need to wait for a crisis or reach a particular level of debt before asking for help.

Protecting other people

Keep your account, password and payment methods secure. Do not allow another person to use your account, and do not use someone else’s account. If you are concerned that another person in your household is gambling harmfully, approach the conversation calmly and focus on the effect of the behaviour rather than blame. Encourage them to use account restrictions and obtain independent support.

Support in Australia and our approach

Support is available in Australia for people affected by gambling, as well as for family members and friends. Gambling support services can provide confidential information, counselling, financial guidance and practical help with planning a break. You can search for an appropriate Australian service online or contact a qualified health professional. If gambling has created immediate financial, emotional or safety concerns, seek urgent assistance through the appropriate emergency or crisis service.

If you feel at risk of harming yourself or another person, stop gambling, move away from the gambling environment and contact emergency support in your area immediately. Your safety is more important than any gambling account, bet or financial loss.

Eth Casino aims to provide information that helps customers make informed choices and access safer gambling tools. We may monitor account activity for signs of risky or unusual behaviour and may contact customers where appropriate. We may also apply restrictions, request information or take other action where required by applicable law, our procedures or the protection of a customer.

Our responsible gaming information does not replace independent financial, legal, medical or counselling advice. Gambling products and account features can change, and the availability of a particular tool may depend on the service, account status or applicable requirements. Read the relevant terms and on-screen information carefully before using an account control.

A simple personal checklist

Have I set a budget that does not affect my essential expenses?
Can I afford to lose this amount without borrowing or using credit?
Have I decided when I will stop playing today?
Am I gambling because I want entertainment, rather than to escape or recover losses?
Would I be comfortable telling someone I trust about my gambling?
If I am worried, have I taken a break and asked for support?

Responsible gambling is an ongoing choice. Review your habits regularly, use the controls available to you and act early if gambling stops feeling enjoyable or manageable. If you would like to discuss a break, self-exclusion or another safer gambling concern, use the support options available through Eth Casino rather than continuing to play.
