Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Aussie Sheds, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. 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 always set strict limits before you play.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is only available to persons aged 18 years and over. If you are under 18, please do not attempt to gamble. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
By accessing RocketPlay Casino through our site, you confirm that you are at least 18 years of age and meet all legal requirements to gamble in your jurisdiction.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Are you experiencing any of the following? This may indicate a gambling problem:
- Constantly thinking about gambling or past gambling experiences
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Repeatedly trying to cut back or stop gambling without success
- Feeling restless or irritable when trying to reduce or quit gambling
- Gambling as a way to escape problems or relieve negative emotions
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Lying to family, friends, or therapists about gambling activities
- Jeopardising relationships, employment, or educational opportunities due to gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Feeling desperate about gambling debts or financial situations caused by gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Options
Most reputable online casinos, including RocketPlay, offer built-in tools to help you gamble responsibly:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're prepared to lose during a gambling session.
- Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-up reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered.
- Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Take a break from gambling for a set period without closing your account permanently.
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gambling for a fixed or indefinite period. Your account will be blocked and you won't receive marketing materials.
We recommend using these tools as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
