Five tools, all yours

Decide your caps while you are calm

It removes the worry that a casino keeps no ceiling on what you spend or how long you stay.

From open wallet to fixed ceiling

A deposit cap fixes how much can enter your account in a chosen period. Switch it on before your first spin, while your budget is still a calm decision.

Your worst night, pre-agreed

This one caps what you can lose over a set stretch, so a rough session cannot quietly grow. Set it in advance, when you are thinking clearly rather than after a bad run.

Clock check at your interval

A reminder pops up after an interval you pick and tells you how long you have been playing. Turn it on if time tends to disappear once the reels start.

A firm stop at the door

Self-exclusion blocks your account for a period you choose, so you cannot log in or deposit. Choose it when you want a firm stop rather than a gentle reminder.

Your session in plain figures

A reality check interrupts play at set intervals and shows your session figures. Enable it if you want a plain tally of time and spend without hunting for the numbers yourself.

How-to

The evening you decide to cap your spending

After these four moves a deposit or loss ceiling is live on your account and visible whenever you log in.

From logged in to controls

Sign in with your email address and open the settings area of your account. Look for the section listing limits and controls before you touch anything else.

While the session is still ahead

Pick deposit or loss, whichever matches what you want to hold back. Check the wording so you are adjusting the right ceiling for your spending.

Daily, weekly or monthly?

Enter the figure and choose whether it applies per day, week or month. Read it back once to make sure the period matches what you meant.

Is the cap showing?

Save the change and refresh the page to see the ceiling shown on your account. If it does not appear, contact support and ask them to confirm it.

When You Want To Talk

Free, Confidential People Who Listen

You will know which free services answer in this country, and who each one is for.

National Gambling Helpline

Ringers reach trained counsellors who are there at any hour of any day, at no cost to you, with chat and email counselling alongside self-help tools and a directory of nearby services for players and relatives. 1800 858 858 gamblinghelponline.org.au

Gamblers Anonymous Australia

Peer meetings let people who gamble, and those living with them, sit with others in the same position across the country, and the group welcomes first-timers who simply turn up and listen. gaaustralia.org.au

National Debt Helpline

When gambling debt sits on top of the worry, financial counsellors give free, confidential guidance on what you owe and on the first practical steps, on weekday business hours rather than around the clock. ndh.org.au

Decide whether you need a pause or a stop

A brief time-out. Consider a short pause when you want breathing room rather than a full stop, as this closes play for a while without ending your membership. You switch it on yourself in the account and the site stays shut until the chosen stretch has passed. Two or three sentences on the account effect: your balance and history remain untouched.

A long, unbreakable stop. Choose account self-exclusion when the break needs to be long and firm: access to casino games closes and is not reopened early for any reason. You start it inside the account, and it applies to this site only, so other operators are not covered by it. Before you confirm, check the length carefully, since you cannot take it back.

The national BetStop listing. Every Australian state and territory is covered by BetStop, the national register run by the Australian Government through ACMA, and a listing there keeps licensed wagering providers from taking your bets. The shortest period is three months and it reaches up to a lifetime. You sign up yourself on their site in a few minutes, and you may name a support person. betstop.gov.au

When someone under 18 shares your home

Proof before the first payout. Signing up means confirming you are 18 or older, and identity documents are checked before the first withdrawal. Anyone younger cannot hold an account.

Can a filter block gambling sites? Filtering software installed on the shared laptop or handset stops gambling pages from loading at all. Do this yourself rather than relying on a promise.

Call the National Gambling Helpline. Start a calm conversation about what you have noticed, without accusations or a lecture. The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 advises relatives as well as players.

When the fun drains out of it

Catching these cues early keeps a small habit from growing into a costly one, because a limit set before play or a pause taken now is far easier than one set in the middle of a bad evening. Gambling stays entertainment with a price; it is not a way to earn.

Read these over calmly and notice any that sound like your own week.

Spending more than you planned, again
Chasing a loss with another deposit
Keeping your play from people close to you
Thinking about the next session at work
Borrowing money to keep playing
Feeling restless when the account is closed
Playing longer than you meant to

Plain answers

Limits, pauses and the national register

Worth reading the moment you wonder whether a step you take here reaches further than one account.

If I self-exclude with Baloobet Casino, does it cover other casinos?+

No. A self-exclusion you set here closes your Baloobet Casino account and nothing else. Covering licensed providers across the country is the job of BetStop, the national register run by the Australian Government, which you join separately.

Can I get advice if it is my husband or son who gambles?+

Yes. The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 takes calls from worried relatives as well as from players, around the clock. Its counsellors offer chat and email support and can point you to services near you.

Can I set a deposit limit on my phone instead of a laptop?+

You can. The settings live in the same account section of the mobile version, so a limit can be chosen wherever you happen to be. Choose it before a session, not after a loss.

How do I shut my account down for good?+

Write to [email protected] from your registered email address and ask for permanent closure. Support confirms the request, and one account per player is the rule here anyway.

Can I undo a self-exclusion before the period ends?+

No. Once you have chosen a self-exclusion period, it runs to the end of that period and is not lifted early. Decide on the length as if nothing will change your mind.
