Gamble for entertainment

Gambling can be enjoyable when it is approached as a leisure activity and kept within clear personal boundaries. It also involves risk, and there is no guaranteed way to predict results or recover money that has been lost. Every bet is a decision involving chance, and previous wins or losses do not change the likelihood of a future outcome.

Gamble for entertainment Tools to help you stay in control Recognising when gambling may be causing harm Getting support

Before you play, decide how much time and money you are comfortable spending. Think of this amount as the cost of entertainment, similar to spending on a meal, event or other recreational activity. Only use money that is available after essential expenses have been paid. Never use money set aside for rent, bills, debts, savings or other important commitments.

Do not gamble when you are upset, under the influence of alcohol or other substances, or trying to cope with stress. Strong emotions can affect judgement and may make it harder to follow limits. Taking a break, changing activities or speaking with someone you trust can help you make a considered decision.

Good habits to consider

Set a spending limit before you start and do not increase it during a session.
Set a time limit and leave the site when that time has ended.
Keep gambling separate from everyday spending and essential household money.
Take regular breaks and make time for other interests, relationships and responsibilities.
Keep track of deposits, bets and losses instead of relying on memory.
Treat winnings as winnings, rather than as money that must be played again.
Avoid chasing losses by increasing bets or playing for longer.
Never borrow money, use credit for gambling or sell possessions to continue playing.

Tools to help you stay in control

Responsible gambling tools can help you make decisions before gambling becomes difficult to manage. The most useful approach is to set boundaries in advance, when you are calm and able to consider your circumstances. Depending on the features available to you, this may include deposit controls, spending limits, session reminders, reality checks, cooling-off periods or account breaks.

Set a personal limit

Choose a limit that fits your budget and personal circumstances. A limit should be realistic and should not depend on winning. Once you reach it, stop gambling. Do not change the limit simply because you have lost money or because you believe a win is due. If you find that you regularly want to raise your limit, this may be a sign that gambling is no longer staying within your intended boundaries.

Use time reminders and breaks

Online gambling can make it easy to lose track of time. Use reminders or planned breaks to check how long you have been playing and how much you have spent. A short break can help you reassess whether you still want to continue. If you do not feel able to stop when you intended to, choose a longer break or close your account until you feel ready to make a clear decision.

Take a cooling-off period or self-exclude

A cooling-off period can provide a short break from gambling, while self-exclusion is a stronger step for people who want to prevent access for a longer period. If you ask to close or restrict your account, follow the relevant process provided through the website. You should not create another account or use someone else’s account during a break or self-exclusion period. If you believe you need ongoing support, consider discussing available options with a qualified gambling support service.

Account controls are not a replacement for personal support, financial advice or professional assistance. If you are concerned about your gambling, use more than one protective measure and tell someone you trust what is happening.

Recognising when gambling may be causing harm

Gambling harm can develop gradually. It may affect finances, work, study, health, relationships and emotional wellbeing. You do not need to wait for a serious crisis before asking for help. Early support can make it easier to understand what is happening and choose practical next steps.

Consider taking a break and seeking support if any of the following apply to you:

You spend more money or time gambling than you planned.
You gamble to escape problems, boredom, sadness, anxiety or other difficult feelings.
You keep thinking about gambling when you are working, studying or spending time with others.
You chase losses or increase your bets to try to recover money.
You hide gambling, losses or transactions from family, friends or other people.
You borrow money, miss bills or use money intended for essential expenses.
You feel restless, irritable or distressed when you try to stop.
You have tried to cut back or stop but have not been able to do so.
Gambling is affecting your relationships, work, study, sleep or general health.
You feel shame, hopelessness or that gambling is the only way to solve financial problems.

One warning sign does not provide a diagnosis, but it is a reason to pause and review your gambling. Several warning signs may indicate that additional support would be useful. Be honest with yourself about the effect gambling is having, and avoid judging yourself for asking for help.

Protect your account and finances

Keep your account details private and use secure passwords. Do not allow another person to gamble through your account, and do not gamble through another person’s account. Review your banking activity and consider separating gambling funds from money used for everyday needs. If gambling has caused financial stress, speak with a financial counsellor before taking out a loan or making further deposits.

Getting support

You are not expected to manage gambling concerns alone. A trusted family member, friend, doctor, counsellor, psychologist or financial counsellor may be able to help you make a plan. Support can include identifying triggers, setting boundaries, managing debt, improving communication and finding healthier ways to deal with stress.

Australian players can also seek assistance from a recognised gambling support service, including Gambling Help Online or a local service in their state or territory. These services can provide confidential information, counselling and guidance for people who gamble, as well as family members and friends affected by someone else’s gambling. Availability and eligibility may vary, so check the relevant service information for current support options.

If you are supporting someone else, avoid covering up losses, lending money for gambling or taking responsibility for their decisions. Explain your concerns calmly, set clear boundaries and encourage them to seek professional help. You can also seek support for yourself, because gambling harm can affect the wider household.

If you need immediate help

If gambling is connected with thoughts of self-harm, suicide, violence or immediate danger, stop gambling and seek urgent assistance through the appropriate emergency or crisis support service in Australia. If you are in immediate danger, contact emergency services. Your safety comes first.

For questions about available responsible gambling features or account restrictions, use the customer support options made available on the Marvel Casino website. Support staff may explain the applicable process, but they cannot remove the risks associated with gambling or make decisions about your finances for you.

Our responsible gaming approach

Marvel Casino aims to present responsible gaming information clearly and encourage players to make informed choices. We encourage you to use available limits and breaks, keep your account secure and seek help early if gambling is affecting your life. Responsible gambling is a shared responsibility: the tools available through a gambling site can assist, but the safest approach is to recognise your own limits and act when those limits are reached.
