AUSTRALIAN SUPPORT

KEEP YOUR PLAY UNDER CONTROL

SPECTRE007 is designed for entertainment. If gaming starts feeling stressful, financially difficult, or harder to manage, it may be time to step back, set stronger limits, or reach out for support.

Decide Your Limit First

Set a budget and time limit before you begin. Only use money you can afford to lose, and avoid mixing play money with essential expenses.

Pause And Reset

Regular breaks help you stay aware of how long you have been playing and make it easier to stop before things get out of hand.

Do Not Chase Losses

Trying to win back losses quickly can lead to bigger losses. Walking away and cooling off is usually the better choice.

Reach Out Early

You do not have to wait until things become serious. Speaking to support services early can help you regain control faster.

Gambling feels like a way to escape stress, anxiety, or low mood.
You are increasing bets to try to feel the same level of excitement.
You are chasing losses or using borrowed money to keep playing.
You feel the need to hide gambling activity from people close to you.
Play is affecting work, finances, relationships, or daily responsibilities.

Track how much you deposit and how long you play instead of guessing.
Keep gambling money separate from essentials such as bills, food, rent, or savings.
Avoid gambling when you are upset, tired, drinking, or feeling pressured.
Use alarms or reminders so you know when it is time to stop.
Take longer breaks after a big win or a frustrating session.

If you need distance from gambling, contact our 24/7 support team. Depending on what is available, you may be able to request temporary restrictions, account limits, or time away from your account.

If you are worried about someone else’s gambling, Australian support services can still offer guidance, even if you are not the person gambling.
