Intensity Casino Responsible Gaming
At Intensity Casino, gambling should always be viewed as entertainment, not as a way to make money or solve financial problems. Games are based on chance, and outcomes cannot be guaranteed or controlled. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose and never treat gambling as a source of income.
Responsible gambling means making informed choices, setting personal boundaries and taking action when gambling stops feeling enjoyable. The information below is designed to help players in Australia maintain control while using Intensity Casino.
Our Responsible Gambling Approach
Intensity Casino is committed to supporting a safer and more balanced approach to online gambling. We encourage players to understand the risks, make decisions before they play and use available controls whenever they are helpful.
Our responsible gambling approach includes providing information about gambling behaviour, making account controls available and encouraging early action if play becomes difficult to manage. No tool can remove every risk, so personal awareness and honest self-monitoring remain important.
Gambling should take place only for leisure. Chasing losses, borrowing money to gamble or increasing stakes in response to frustration can create serious difficulties. If gambling begins to affect your finances, relationships, work, study or wellbeing, consider stopping and seeking support.
When Gambling Becomes a Concern
Problem gambling can develop gradually, and warning signs may not always be obvious at first. A player may begin spending more time or money than intended, feeling anxious about gambling or hiding gambling activity from family and friends.
Potential signs that gambling may be becoming harmful include:
- Gambling with money needed for rent, bills, food or other essentials.
- Trying to recover losses by placing larger or more frequent bets.
- Feeling restless, irritable or preoccupied when not gambling.
- Borrowing money, selling belongings or using credit to continue playing.
- Missing work, study, family commitments or social activities because of gambling.
- Keeping gambling secret or giving misleading explanations about time or money spent.
- Continuing to gamble despite stress, conflict, financial problems or low mood.
One warning sign does not define a person, but it can be a useful reason to pause and review your behaviour. Acting early is generally easier than waiting until problems become more serious.
Reviewing Your Habits and Boundaries
Self-assessment can help you understand whether gambling remains recreational. Ask yourself how often you gamble, how much you spend, whether you can stop when planned and how you feel before and after playing. Honest answers can highlight patterns that deserve attention.
Set limits before you begin and use the controls available through your account. Depending on the feature and account settings, consider:
- Deposit limits to restrict the amount added to your account over a selected period.
- Loss limits to help define the maximum amount you are prepared to lose.
- Reality checks that remind you how long you have been playing and prompt a review of your session.
- Cooling-off periods that provide a temporary break from gambling when you need distance.
- Self-exclusion for a longer interruption when you want to stop gambling for a defined period or more permanently.
Limits work best when they are realistic and established before emotions influence your decisions. Do not increase a limit simply because you have lost money or want to continue playing. A limit is a protective boundary, not a target to reach.
Controls Available on the Website
Intensity Casino provides responsible gambling features intended to help players manage access and spending. Use these settings proactively rather than waiting for gambling to become uncomfortable. The available tools include:
- Deposit controls that allow you to set boundaries on funds added to your casino account.
- Session or reality-check reminders to help you keep track of playing time.
- Cooling-off options that support a planned short-term break from gambling.
- Self-exclusion options for players who need a more substantial interruption to their access.
- Account and activity information that can assist you in reviewing your gambling patterns.
Feature availability, processing times and the way a control operates may depend on the account setting or product involved. Read the instructions shown when selecting a tool and contact Intensity Casino if you need help understanding a control. Responsible gambling tools should not be bypassed by opening additional accounts or using another person’s account.
Finding Help and Guidance
If gambling becomes difficult to control, stop playing and seek professional help. Speaking with a qualified counsellor or support service can provide practical guidance without judgement. You do not need to wait for a financial crisis or another serious consequence before asking for assistance.
For account-related questions or help locating responsible gambling settings, contact Intensity Casino at [email protected].
Independent external services are also available. They are not partners of Intensity Casino and are not operated by Intensity Casino:
- Gambling Help Online provides information, counselling and support for people affected by gambling.
- Australian Government - Gambling Support Services provides information about support options and services.
The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 is a free and confidential support service for people affected by gambling. Friends and family members can also seek assistance if another person’s gambling is causing concern.
Keeping Gambling Away From Minors
Only individuals aged 18 or older may use the Intensity Casino website. Underage gambling is not permitted. Age restrictions are important because children and teenagers may be less able to understand gambling risks, manage money responsibly or recognise developing harm.
Adults must not allow anyone under 18 to access their account, payment methods or gambling devices. Keep account credentials private and log out after using a shared device. Intensity Casino may apply age and identity checks where appropriate, and an account may be restricted if required information cannot be verified.
If you believe a minor has accessed an account or used the website, stop the activity and contact Intensity Casino promptly so the matter can be reviewed.
Using Parental Safety Measures
Parents and guardians should take practical steps to prevent children from reaching gambling websites. Website-level controls may not be sufficient on their own, particularly where a household shares devices, browsers or internet connections.
- Use parental control settings on computers, tablets, mobile phones and home networks.
- Keep payment cards, digital wallets and account passwords out of children’s reach.
- Enable device passwords, screen locks and separate user profiles where available.
- Discuss online safety and explain that gambling is an adult activity involving financial risk.
- Monitor downloads, browser history and unfamiliar applications in an age-appropriate way.
- Do not share an Intensity Casino account or permit a child to watch or participate in gambling activity.
Adults remain responsible for protecting their own login details. If another person can access your device or account, update your password and strengthen the security settings without delay.
Simple Ways to Stay in Control
Small habits can make it easier to keep gambling within safe personal boundaries. Before starting a session, decide what you can afford and how long you intend to play. During the session, pay attention to your feelings and stop if the activity is no longer enjoyable.
- Set a spending and time plan before gambling, then follow it.
- Use only disposable funds and never gamble with money needed for essential expenses.
- Keep gambling separate from credit, loans, household bills and emergency savings.
- Take regular breaks and avoid long sessions when tired, upset or under the influence of alcohol or other substances.
- Never chase losses or increase stakes to try to recover money.
- Do not gamble to escape stress, loneliness, boredom or personal problems.
- Keep a record of deposits, withdrawals and time spent so your activity remains visible.
- Balance gambling with work, family, social activities, exercise and other interests.
- Talk to someone you trust if you feel secretive, anxious or unable to stop.
- Use cooling-off or self-exclusion tools as soon as you feel that a break would help.
Keeping This Policy Current
Intensity Casino may review and update this responsible gambling policy to reflect changes to website features, support information, player needs or applicable requirements. The latest version published on the website will apply from the date it is made available.
Players should review this page from time to time and consider whether their own limits and gambling habits remain appropriate. Updates to this policy do not replace the need to make careful personal decisions or seek independent assistance when gambling causes concern.
