Responsible Gambling at 18Bet Australia

At 18Bet Australia, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices. We want to provide a safe and enjoyable environment for our players, ensuring that gambling remains a fun and exciting form of entertainment. To support this, we offer a range of tools and resources designed to help our players manage their gambling responsibly. Remember: 18Bet is intended for users who are 18 years and older. Gamble responsibly and within your means.

Safer Gambling Tools

We provide a suite of tools to help you manage your gambling activity. These tools are designed to give you control, allowing you to set personal limits and take breaks when needed. Staying in control is essential to ensure your gambling experience remains enjoyable, avoiding any potential pitfalls that can lead to harmful gambling behaviour.

Deposit Limits

Deposit limits allow you to set a maximum amount that you can deposit into your account over a specified period. You can set limits on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. This feature supports you in managing your budget and ensuring that your gambling activities do not impact your financial wellbeing. Adjusting your deposit limits is easy through your account settings, giving you the flexibility to adapt as your financial circumstances change.

Loss Limits

Understanding that losses can sometimes exceed desired limits, 18Bet offers loss limit settings. This allows you to cap the amount of losses you sustain within a chosen timeframe. By setting this limit, you ensure that you do not spend more than you can afford to lose, keeping your gambling experience safe and enjoyable. Constant monitoring of these limits can help you make informed choices about your gambling sessions.

Time Limits

Time flies when you're having fun, but it's important to be mindful of the amount of time spent gambling. You can set time limits on your gaming sessions to help prevent extended play. Once your allocated time is up, you'll receive a notification, prompting you to take a break or log off for the day. This helps maintain a healthy balance between your gaming activities and other daily responsibilities.

Reality Checks

Reality checks are regular reminders that help you keep track of the amount of time you've spent gambling. You can set these reminders to appear at intervals of your choosing, allowing you to make informed decisions about your gameplay, and to keep your experience both fun and balanced. Implementing reality checks encourages ongoing awareness of your gambling habits, assisting in maintaining self-control.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel that gambling is becoming problematic, self-exclusion could be the right step. Our self-exclusion tool allows you to take a break from 18Bet for a predetermined period, ranging from a few days to several months. During self-exclusion, your account will be temporarily suspended, and you will not be able to access any gambling services. This tool is designed to help you regain control and consider your gambling behaviours. Self-exclusion is an empowering choice for addressing and reassessing your gambling priorities.
