Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Little Living, we believe gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While online casino games can be fun and exciting, it's important to understand the risks and play responsibly.
Remember: the house always has an edge. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is strictly regulated. You must be 18 years of age or older to participate in online gaming activities. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Parents and guardians: If you're concerned about a young person's gaming habits, support and resources are available.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be alert to these warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or essentials
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount gambled
- Spending increasing amounts of time and money on gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Neglecting family, work, or personal responsibilities
- Borrowing money to fund gambling
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape stress, depression, or anxiety
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, help is available.
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you stay in control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount of losses you're willing to accept
- Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Session Time Limits: Automatically log out after a set period of play
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently block your account from accessing gambling sites
Use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
