Responsible Gambling at Uptown Pokies
At Uptown Pokies, we are committed to promoting responsible gambling practices among our players. We understand that gambling can be a source of entertainment and enjoyment, but it can also lead to problems if not approached responsibly. Our mission is to provide a safe and secure gaming environment, ensuring that our players have the necessary tools and resources to make informed decisions about their gambling activities.
Commitment Statement
Uptown Pokies is dedicated to upholding the highest standards of responsible gaming. We strive to create a gaming environment that is enjoyable and fair for all players. We have implemented a range of measures and features to assist players in controlling their gambling and to prevent any potential gambling-related harm.
Deposit, Loss, and Session Limits
To help players manage their gambling, Uptown Pokies provides options to set personal limits on deposits, losses, and gaming sessions. These limits can be adjusted by players through their account settings, helping to maintain control over their gambling expenditure and duration of play.
Self-Exclusion Options
If at any time a player feels they need a break from gambling, Uptown Pokies offers self-exclusion options. Players can choose to exclude themselves from accessing their accounts for a specified period, ensuring they have the necessary space to assess their gambling behaviours.
Cooling-Off Periods
In addition to self-exclusion, players can also utilise cooling-off periods. This temporary measure allows players to take a brief pause in their gaming activities, preventing access to their account for a few days or weeks, providing time to reassess their gaming habits.
Reality Checks
To keep players informed, Uptown Pokies includes reality check alerts. These alerts notify players about the duration of their gameplay, ensuring they are aware of the time spent on our platform and encouraging breaks to maintain a healthy balance.
Underage Protection
Uptown Pokies implements strict measures to prevent underage gambling. We require all players to verify their age during the registration process, and we actively monitor accounts to ensure compliance with age restrictions. Gambling is strictly restricted to individuals aged 18 years and older.
