Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Royal Reels Casino, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses by betting more than intended.

If you're visiting through Candelo Village Festival's affiliate links, please remember that the choice to gamble is yours alone. Play responsibly and within your means.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory) to participate in online gambling. In Australia, this is 18 years old in all states and territories.

Gambling is not permitted for anyone under the legal age. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access gambling services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Be aware of the following signs that your gambling may be becoming problematic:

• Chasing Losses: Continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover money you've lost
• Hiding Gambling Activity: Keeping your gambling secret from family, friends, or partners
• Spending More Than Intended: Regularly gambling with more money than you planned
• Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, school, or family commitments due to gambling
• Borrowing Money: Taking loans or using credit to fund gambling activities
• Mood Changes: Becoming irritable or anxious when unable to gamble
• Tolerance: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
• Failed Attempts to Stop: Being unable to reduce or quit gambling despite wanting to
• Relationship Strain: Conflicts with loved ones over gambling habits
• Financial Difficulties: Experiencing money problems as a result of gambling

If you recognise any of these signs in your own behaviour, seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Gambling Controls

Most reputable online casinos offer tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a set period
• Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Time Limits: Set automatic session timeouts to limit your playing time
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing gambling accounts
• Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling

Use these tools proactively to maintain control over your gambling behaviour.
