Responsible Gambling
At ChickenRoad.com.au we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gambling. Gambling should be an enjoyable leisure activity – not a source of financial hardship or emotional distress. This page provides guidance for Australian players and links to support organisations.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. Common warning signs include:
- Spending more money or time gambling than you intended.
- Chasing losses – betting more to recover previous losses.
- Hiding gambling activity from family or friends.
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling.
- Neglecting work, study, family or personal responsibilities.
- Feeling anxious, irritable or depressed when not gambling.
If you recognise any of these patterns in yourself or someone you know, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most licensed online casinos available to Australian players offer responsible gambling tools, including:
- Deposit limits – Set daily, weekly or monthly caps on how much you can deposit.
- Loss limits – Restrict how much you can lose in a given period.
- Session time limits – Get notified or logged out after a set play duration.
- Reality checks – Periodic pop-ups showing how long you have been playing.
- Self-exclusion – Voluntarily block yourself from a casino for a set period or permanently.
- Cool-off periods – Take a short break from gambling without full self-exclusion.
