Responsible Gaming

Our Commitment to Safe Gaming

At Colon Say Stud, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should always be enjoyed as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble responsibly and within their means.

Age Verification

Players must be 18 years of age or older to use our services. This is a legal requirement in Australia. 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 attempt to access gambling services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

It's important to recognise when gambling may be becoming a problem. Please review the following warning signs:

• Constantly thinking about gambling, even when not actively playing
• Needing to gamble with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same excitement
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Hiding your gambling activities from family, friends, or partners
• Experiencing anxiety or irritability when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Neglecting work, education, family, or other important responsibilities due to gambling
• Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
• Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
• Lying about the amount of time or money spent gambling
• Experiencing financial difficulties as a result of gambling

If you recognise any of these warning signs in your own behaviour, please seek help immediately.

Self-Help Tools

We provide several tools to help you maintain control of your gambling:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit in a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly).
• Loss Limits: Establish a maximum loss limit to prevent exceeding your budget.
• Reality Checks: Enable periodic reminders during play sessions to help you stay aware of time and money spent.
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account if you feel you need a break from gambling.
• Cooling-Off Period: Request a temporary suspension of your account to give yourself time to reflect.

For assistance in setting up any of these tools, please contact our customer support team.
