Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Ripper Casino, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Like any form of entertainment, it should only be enjoyed with money you can afford to lose.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and providing our Australian players with the tools and information they need to gamble safely and enjoyably.
Age Verification
In Australia, you must be at least 18 years old to gamble online. We take age verification seriously and verify all player accounts during registration. If you are under the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, you are not permitted to use our services.
Parents and guardians: If you are concerned about a young person's gambling, please contact the support organisations listed below.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you or someone you know experiences any of the following, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding or being dishonest about the amount of time or money spent gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when not gambling
- Unable to stick to gambling limits or stop when you want to
- Neglecting family, work, or social commitments due to gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or gambling to pay debts
- Increasing the amount wagered to achieve the same level of excitement
- Lying to friends or family about gambling habits
- Using gambling as a way to escape problems or negative emotions
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or others, please seek help immediately.
