Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

Online pokies should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While gaming can be fun and exciting, it's important to approach it responsibly and within your means.

Remember: The house always has a mathematical advantage. Only gamble what you can afford to lose.

Age Verification

Online gambling in Australia is only available to players aged 18 years and over (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory). By accessing kpmosaicwords.com, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and meet all local legal requirements to participate in online gaming.

If you are under 18, please do not use our services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Recognise these common warning signs that gambling may be becoming a problem:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding gambling activity or lying about time and money spent
• Gambling with money needed for essentials (rent, food, bills)
• Neglecting work, study, family, or social responsibilities
• Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or depression
• Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
• Feeling a constant urge to gamble with increasing amounts of money
• Relationships suffering due to gambling habits

If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek support immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Player Controls

Many online gaming platforms offer built-in tools to help you stay in control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose over a specific timeframe
• Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Session Limits: Automatically end your gaming session after a set duration
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gaming platforms
• Account Cooling-Off: Take a break from your account for a specified period

We encourage you to use these tools proactively to manage your gaming responsibly.
