18+ ONLY
Responsible Gaming
Play for entertainment only. Under 18s cannot participate.
Set your boundaries first
Decide your time and spending limits before you play — when you are calm, not after a loss.
Know the warning signs
Gambling harm can affect money, relationships, work, sleep and wellbeing. Take action early if any of these feel familiar.
Take a break or make a change
Supportive services commonly use cooling-off periods, voluntary exclusion, self-exclusion, reality checks, activity statements and marketing opt-out. Ask NT77 Support about the account options available to you.
- Pause before you play. Do not gamble when distressed, tired, intoxicated or under pressure.
- Request a break, account restriction, spending limit, deposit limit, loss limit or marketing opt-out through Support.
- If gambling is causing harm, use independent help or self-exclusion rather than trying to manage it alone.
About self-exclusion and voluntary exclusion
Self-exclusion is a formal request to stop access for a chosen period. A shorter voluntary break or suspension may suit some people, but self-exclusion is the stronger option when gambling harm is a concern. The exact coverage and duration depend on the provider or venue.
For family and friends
Gambling harm affects more than the person gambling. A trusted person can encourage support, help with practical boundaries and contact an independent service for advice. Some venues also offer third-party exclusion processes.
Independent Australian support
These organisations are independent from NT77. They can explain support, counselling and exclusion options in confidence.
