Responsible Gambling Policy
Wombet is committed to providing a safe and responsible environment for all our users. We believe that gambling should always be a fun and recreational activity, conducted within the user's means.
Age Verification (18+)
Access to Wombet is strictly prohibited for anyone under the age of 18. We employ rigorous age verification processes to ensure that all players meet the legal age requirement in Australia.
Principles of Safer Play
To maintain a healthy relationship with gaming, we recommend:
Setting a budget before you start and sticking to it.
Never gambling with money required for essentials like rent or bills.
Avoiding gambling when feeling stressed or upset.
Not viewing gambling as a way to generate income or clear debt.
Self-Management Tools
We provide a variety of tools to help you stay in control of your activity:
Deposit and Loss Limits
You can set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you deposit or lose. Once these limits are reached, you will not be able to increase them until the cooling-off period expires.
Session and Time Reminders
Set notifications to track how long you have been playing. These reminders help you maintain a balance between gaming and other daily responsibilities.
Time-Out and Self-Exclusion
If you need a short break, you can initiate a "Time-Out." For more serious concerns, our self-exclusion tool allows you to close your account for a set duration, during which you will not receive any marketing materials.
Identifying Warning Signs
Common signs of problematic behavior include spending more time or money than intended, lying about gambling habits, or neglecting personal and professional responsibilities. Early recognition is key to preventing long-term issues.
Protection of Minors
We encourage users to keep their login details private. If you share your device with children, consider using parental control software to block access to gaming platforms.
Seeking Professional Support
If you feel your gambling is no longer fun or is becoming a burden, we encourage you to seek support from independent professional organizations. Numerous services provide free, confidential advice and counseling in Australia.
Monitoring and Training
Our staff is trained to identify and assist players who may be showing signs of gambling-related harm. We constantly review our procedures to ensure a high standard of player protection.
