Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Star Casino Online, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and within your means.

If you find yourself struggling with your gaming habits, help and support are available.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory under Australian law) to access and use Star Casino Online. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.

If you are under the legal age, please do not attempt to access our services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Please be aware of these warning signs that may indicate a problem with gambling:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or colleagues
• Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
• Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
• Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
• Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
• Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
• Lying about the extent of your gambling
• Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
• Unable to reduce or stop gambling despite trying

If you recognise any of these signs in your own behaviour, it's important to seek help immediately.
