Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Wagga Body Art, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming. Online casino gaming should be viewed as entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses with additional wagers.
Age Verification
Online casino gaming through Neosurf is strictly available to individuals aged 18 years and over in Australia, or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction. By accessing and using our services, you confirm that you meet the legal age requirement in your location.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Be aware of these common warning signs that may indicate problem gambling:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Hiding gambling activities or lying about the amount you gamble
- Gambling with money intended for bills, rent, or other essentials
- Gambling for longer periods than intended
- Neglecting family, friends, work, or study due to gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Needing to gamble with increasing amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Unsuccessful attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Experiencing mood swings related to gambling wins and losses
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or others, support is available.
Self-Help Tools and Resources
Many online casinos offer features to help you gamble responsibly:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit over a specific time period
- Loss Limits: Establish a maximum amount you're willing to lose before taking a break
- Reality Checks: Enable notifications to remind you of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling platforms
- Session Time Limits: Set reminders to take breaks from gaming

Use these tools proactively to maintain control over your gaming habits.
