Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Changemakers Project, we believe that online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling to make money or recover losses, it's time to seek help.

Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Set limits you can afford to lose and stick to them.

Age Verification

In Australia, you must be at least 18 years old to participate in online gambling. If you are under the legal gambling age, you are not permitted to use this site. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to verify your age at any time.

By accessing this website, you confirm that you are 18 years of age or older.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gaming Features

Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you manage your gambling responsibly:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit over a specific period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Restrict the amount of money you're willing to lose during a gaming session
• Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
• Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period without closing your account
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from accessing the casino for a designated period (typically 6 months to several years)
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling

We encourage you to use these tools if you feel your gambling may be getting out of control.
