Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Heroes Home Care, we believe that gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling to make money or recover losses, it may be time to seek support.
Please gamble responsibly and within your means. Set limits on time and money spent, and stick to them.
Age Verification
All users of non-GamStop casinos must be at least 18 years of age or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
If you are under 18, please do not use our services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Ask yourself if you recognise any of the following warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Hiding your gambling activities from friends or family
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Gambling with money intended for essential expenses (rent, bills, food)
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when not gambling
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Neglecting work, family, or social relationships due to gambling
- Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling
If you recognise any of these signs, please seek help immediately.
Self-Help Tools
Most responsible gambling platforms offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a session or over time
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Session Time Limits: Automatically log out after a set period of play
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gambling for a period of time (typically 6 months to 5 years)
Use these tools proactively to keep your gambling safe and enjoyable.
