Responsible Gambling
At Casino Richard, we are committed to providing a safe, fair, and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players in Australia. We believe that gambling should always be a form of entertainment, never a way to make money or escape personal problems. Our Responsible Gambling policy is designed to help you stay in control and enjoy your experience responsibly.
Our Commitment
Casino Richard operates in full compliance with Australian gambling regulations and is dedicated to promoting responsible gambling practices. We continuously review and update our policies to ensure they reflect the latest standards and guidelines set by Australian regulatory authorities as of June 2026.
Know the Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can affect anyone. It is important to recognise the warning signs early. You may have a gambling problem if you:
- Spend more money on gambling than you can afford to lose
- Borrow money or sell possessions to fund gambling
- Feel anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Chase losses by continuing to gamble to win back money
- Neglect work, family, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Lie to friends or family about how much time or money you spend gambling
- Use gambling as a way to cope with stress, depression, or other emotional issues
- Feel unable to stop or reduce your gambling despite wanting to
Tools to Help You Stay in Control
Casino Richard provides a range of tools to help you manage your gambling activity. You can access these tools at any time through your account settings or by contacting our support team.
Deposit Limits
Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you add to your account. Once a limit is set, it takes effect immediately. Increasing a limit requires a 7-day cooling-off period.
Session Time Limits
Set a maximum duration for your gaming sessions. Once your session limit is reached, you will be automatically logged out of your account.
Loss Limits
Define the maximum amount you are willing to lose within a set period. This helps prevent chasing losses and keeps your spending within a budget you are comfortable with.
Reality Checks
Enable regular on-screen reminders that show how long you have been playing and how much you have spent during your current session.
Self-Exclusion
If you feel that you need a break from gambling, you can self-exclude from Casino Richard for a period of your choice — from 30 days up to a permanent exclusion. During the self-exclusion period, you will not be able to access your account or receive any promotional communications from us.
To activate self-exclusion, please contact our support team at [email protected] or use the self-exclusion option in your account settings.
Account Cooling-Off Period
If you need a short break, you can request a temporary account suspension for 24 hours, 48 hours, or 7 days without permanently closing your account.
Protecting Minors
Casino Richard strictly prohibits gambling by anyone under the age of 18. We verify the age and identity of all players during the registration process. If you share a device with minors, we strongly recommend using parental control software to prevent underage access to gambling websites.
Recommended parental control tools available in Australia:
National Self-Exclusion Register
Australia operates a national self-exclusion register for online wagering services. We encourage all players who feel they need additional support to register with BetStop — the National Self-Exclusion Register. Once registered, you will be excluded from all licensed Australian online wagering services.
