Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Royal Reels, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment, not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself viewing gaming as income or relying on it financially, it's time to seek help.

We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting our Australian players with the resources they need to maintain control.

Age Verification

Royal Reels is only available to players aged 18 years and over or the legal age for gambling in your Australian state or territory. We conduct strict age verification checks during account registration and may request proof of identity at any time.

If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not attempt to create an account. If you are aware of underage gambling, please report it to us immediately.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do you recognize any of these signs in yourself or someone you know? Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be honest with yourself:

• Spending more time and money on gaming than intended
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding your gaming activity or lying about how much you spend
• Neglecting family, friends, work, or other responsibilities due to gaming
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gaming
• Using gaming to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to finance gaming
• Unable to stick to a budget or set limits
• Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, food, utilities)
• Friends or family expressing concern about your gaming habits

If you've checked any of these boxes, please reach out for support today.

Self-Help Tools & Controls

Royal Reels offers several responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a daily, weekly, or monthly period. Once set, you cannot increase the limit until the period expires.
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a specified timeframe. Your account will be restricted once this limit is reached.
• Session Reminders: Receive notifications after a set period of gaming to remind you of time spent.
• Reality Checks: Pop-up messages that display your session duration and amount wagered at regular intervals.
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently close your account if you need a break from gaming. During self-exclusion, you cannot access your account or place bets.
• Account Cooling Off: Take a mandatory break from your account for a set period (minimum 24 hours to 6 weeks).

Access these tools anytime through your Royal Reels account settings. These controls are free and confidential.
