Responsible Gaming
Gambling Should Be Entertainment
At Rocket Play, we believe gambling should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While online casino games can be fun and exciting, it's important to approach them responsibly and within your means.
Set a budget you can afford to lose, play for enjoyment only, and never gamble with money needed for essentials like rent, bills, or food.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is restricted to individuals aged 18 years and over (or the legal age in your state or territory, whichever is higher). It is your responsibility to ensure you meet the legal age requirements in your jurisdiction before playing.
By accessing Rocket Play, you confirm that you are of legal gambling age and comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. Be aware of these warning signs:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
- Gambling with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
- Lying to family, friends, or others about gambling activities or losses
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, depression, or other emotional problems
- Neglecting work, school, family, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Failed attempts to reduce or control gambling
- Jeopardizing relationships, education, career, or financial stability
- Continuing to gamble despite negative consequences
If you recognise any of these signs in yourself or someone else, seeking help is the right step.
