Responsible Gaming Tools at Playcroco

Every account at Playcroco is 18 and over, no exceptions. If you're playing on a shared device or a family computer, log out fully when you're done and never save your password somewhere a minor could find it. Age verification checks may be requested at withdrawal stage as part of standard account security.

Deposit and Loss Limits

You can set a daily, weekly or monthly deposit limit directly from your account settings. Once you hit the cap, the cashier won't let you add more funds until the period resets. This is deliberately inconvenient to override quickly. If you want to lower a limit, it applies straight away. If you want to raise it, we build in a cooling-off period before the higher limit takes effect, so a bad night doesn't turn into a bigger one.

Loss limits work alongside deposit limits but track a different number: the total you're actually down over a set period, not just what you've put in. For players who deposit via PayID or POLi and like to top up often, a loss limit is usually the more honest guardrail because it reflects what you're really spending, not just transaction count.

Reality Checks

Time can disappear fast in a live dealer room or on a session of linked pokies. Reality checks are pop-up reminders you can schedule, every 30, 60 or 90 minutes, that show session length and net result so far. They don't stop play. They just interrupt it long enough for you to make a conscious choice about whether to keep going or log off. We'd rather you closed the tab after a reality check than kept going out of habit.

Self-Exclusion

If you need a clean break, self-exclusion locks your account for a period you choose, from a short cooling-off window through to a longer or indefinite block. During self-exclusion you won't receive marketing emails, SMS promos or reload bonus offers from Playcroco, and the account cannot be reopened early just because you change your mind two days in. That delay is intentional. Reach out to our support team to start the process, or use the self-exclusion option in account settings if it's available to you directly.

Warning Signs Worth Noticing

• Chasing losses by increasing bet size or deposit frequency to try to get back to even
• Borrowing money, using bill money or dipping into savings to keep playing
• Lying to family or partners about how much time or money is going into pokies or table games
• Feeling irritable, anxious or unable to relax when not playing
• Skipping sleep, work or social plans because a session felt more important
• Using play as an escape from stress rather than as one leisure option among others

None of these on their own mean there's a serious problem, but a few together are worth a pause. Setting a loss limit that night, or calling Gambling Help Online for a confidential chat, costs nothing and takes a few minutes.

Budgeting Around AUD Banking

Because deposits through PayID, POLi, Visa, Mastercard, Neosurf or crypto can clear almost instantly, it's easy to top up again straight after a loss without much friction. Treat your deposit limit as the real budget, not a suggestion, and consider setting it lower than you think you need at first. You can always adjust down instantly if a session isn't going the way you hoped.
