Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At Coffs Coast Motorsport, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to gamble, please do so responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is strictly for individuals aged 18 years and over. We take age verification seriously and comply with all Australian gambling regulations. By accessing our casino affiliate content, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may be developing a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling with more money to recover what you've lost
- Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, bills, groceries)
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or getting into debt to fund gambling
- Neglecting work, study, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Experiencing financial, legal, or relationship problems caused by gambling
Self-Help Tools
Most online casinos and gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on how much you deposit
- Loss Limits: Set maximum amounts you're willing to lose during a session
- Time Limits: Set reminders to take breaks during gambling sessions
- Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-up notifications showing your time spent and money wagered
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling accounts
- Session Timeouts: Automatically log out after a set period of inactivity
We encourage you to use these tools to maintain control over your gambling activity.
