Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At Fair Go Casino, we believe that gambling should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Only spend what you can afford to lose, and remember that the house always has an edge. If you find yourself struggling to control your gambling, help is available.
Age Verification
Fair Go Casino is only available to players aged 18 years and over (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction). We are committed to preventing underage gambling and take age verification seriously. By accessing our site, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in Australia.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Please be aware of these warning signs:
- Spending more money or time gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to win back money
- Hiding gambling activity or lying about the amount gambled
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to cut back
- Using gambling to escape problems, stress, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Gambling with money needed for essentials like rent or bills
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Relationships suffering due to gambling habits
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone you know, support is available.

- Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period without closing your account
