Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income
At Playamo, we believe online gaming should be fun, exciting, and entertaining. Gambling is never a reliable way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and always view it as entertainment spending—similar to going to the cinema or dining out.
We encourage all players to gamble responsibly and within their means.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your jurisdiction) to use Playamo and participate in online gambling in Australia. We take age verification seriously and comply with all Australian gaming regulations.
If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not attempt to register or gamble on our platform.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in yourself or someone you know, problem gambling may be developing:
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling without success
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other negative emotions
- Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Experiencing mood swings or irritability when unable to gamble
- Feeling anxious or restless when not gambling
- Lying about the amount of time or money spent on gambling
If you experience any of these warning signs, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools at Playamo
Playamo offers a range of tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:
Deposit Limits
Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on the amount of money you can deposit into your account. Once this limit is reached, you cannot deposit additional funds until the period resets.
Loss Limits
Set a limit on the amount of money you're willing to lose over a specified period. When you reach this limit, your account will be temporarily suspended from betting.
Reality Checks
Enable pop-up notifications that remind you how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered. These reminders help you stay aware of your activity.
Self-Exclusion
If you need to take a break from gambling, you can self-exclude from Playamo for a period of your choosing (24 hours to 5 years or longer). During this time, you will not be able to access your account or place bets.
For more information on these tools, contact Playamo's support team or visit your account settings.
