Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At Bellview Park, we believe that gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We're committed to promoting safe and responsible gaming practices for all our players.
If you're going to play pokies online, please do so responsibly and within your means.
Age Verification
Online gaming is strictly for players aged 18 years and over in Australia. By accessing our site, you confirm that you are of legal age to gamble in your jurisdiction.
We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you notice any of these signs in yourself or someone else, it may indicate a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses — trying to win back money you've lost by gambling more
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Neglecting work, study, family, or other important responsibilities
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money to fund gambling activities
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
- Experiencing relationship conflicts due to gambling
- Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools
We provide several tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose before stopping play
- Reality Checks: Receive pop-up reminders during your gaming session about time and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from your account to take a break from gaming
Contact our support team at support@bellviewpark.com.au to activate any of these tools.
