Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Aussie Tent Adventures, we promote responsible gaming practices. Gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, similar to going to the movies or attending a concert. It should never be considered as a way to earn money or solve financial problems.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Only wager money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction) to use Stake or any affiliated gambling services. Gambling is not suitable for minors.
If you are under the legal age, please do not participate in gambling activities.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you experience any of the following, you may have a problem with gambling:
- Constantly thinking about gambling or past gambling experiences
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
- Attempting to cut back or stop gambling but being unable to do so
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money lost
- Lying to family, friends, or professionals about the extent of your gambling
- Hiding evidence of gambling or concealing the amount spent
- Jeopardizing relationships, education, or career opportunities due to gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or to relieve anxiety or depression
- Borrowing money or selling possessions to fund gambling
- Experiencing mood swings related to gambling wins and losses
Self-Help Tools & Limit Setting
Stake and responsible gaming providers offer several tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
- Session Limits: Restrict the amount of time you spend gambling in one session
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've wagered
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling platforms
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if needed
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain healthy gambling habits.
