Responsible Gaming

Responsible Gambling

At Mount Gravatt Bingo, we promote safe and balanced gaming habits for all our players.

Safe and Balanced Gaming Habits

Gaming should be an enjoyable entertainment activity, not a means to make money. To maintain healthy gaming habits, it's essential to:

Set realistic expectations: Understand that winning is not guaranteed.
Manage your time effectively: Don't spend too much time playing games.
Prioritize other activities: Make sure gaming doesn't interfere with work, relationships, or other responsibilities.

Budget and Bankroll Management

To play safely, you should manage your budget accordingly:

Set a spending limit for each gaming session.
Stick to it, even if you're on a winning streak.
Don't chase losses by betting more than you can afford.

Deposit, Loss, Wager, and Session Limits

We offer several responsible gambling tools to help you control your gaming experience:

Deposit Limit: Set the maximum amount you can deposit within a set period (e.g., daily or weekly).
Loss Limit: Automatically stop playing when you reach a predetermined loss threshold.
Wagering Limit: Decide on a specific betting limit for each session.
Session Time: Set a time limit to ensure regular breaks and maintain healthy gaming habits.

Reality Checks and Time Reminders

Stay in control with these built-in features:

Reality Check: Receive reminders about your playing time, deposits, or losses at scheduled intervals (e.g., every hour).
Time Reminders: Get notifications when you reach a predetermined session time limit.
