Five controls to know

When You Want a Brake Built In

By the end you will know which control matches the moment you are in.

The top you pick first

A ceiling on what reaches your balance goes on before the session starts, so the amount you decided on earlier is the amount you can commit.

A known cost per night

Instead of counting deposits, this watches what leaves your balance, and it makes sense on the quiet nights when you want a fixed cost.

Time alerts in play

Clock alerts come through while you play, which helps when an evening slides past the point you promised yourself.

Distance before returning

Choose this when you want distance without closing anything: account activity pauses for a set while, and you return when you are sure that's right.

A firm stop, then a fresh start

This closes play at the casino for a stretch and is the firmer step when a pause feels too light for what you need.

Support, step by step

A Five-Minute Limit Setup

We keep it plain and unhurried, so you can set things up at your own pace.

Signed in and settled

Open your profile from the menu after signing in, and glance over the details on file so the rest goes smoothly.

Where do the controls sit?

Look for the responsible gambling heading inside the profile area, where the controls sit together in one place.

Choose before play, not after

Pick deposit limits first if spending is the worry, or loss limits if it's what leaves your balance, and set the figure ahead of playing.

Is the figure saved?

Save the change, then reopen the section to see the figure sitting there, and note that the settings can be tightened later whenever you like.

When Does Play Stop Being Fun?

Noticing these early gives you room to act while you are calm rather than after a hard loss. A limit set now, or a short pause, is the first step and can be undone later.

If a few of these read like your own week, that is worth taking seriously.

Playing longer than you planned, almost every session
Chasing a loss with a bigger deposit
Hiding your play from a partner or flatmate
Spending money set aside for rent or bills
Feeling restless on the days you do not play
Borrowing or selling something to keep playing
Telling yourself you will stop after one more

Keep the Under-18s Out of Every Session

ID checks before payout. By the time you join, our checks confirm you are 18+. Proof of identity, address and payment method is reviewed before the first withdrawal, and an account under 18 is closed.

A calmer shared screen. Before the school laptop goes back on the desk, fit blocking software that hides gambling sites on that device and the shared phone. A filter is not proof, so keep your own login out of reach too.

Talking with someone you love. At the moment a relative admits the losses, blame closes the conversation. Speak about facts and feelings instead, and let the National Gambling Helpline 1800 858 858 advise you as well as them.

Before A Pause, After An Exclusion

Room To Think It Over. A pause is a break you set inside your account for a stretch of hours or days when you want distance without closing anything. Start it in the account settings and play and deposits stop until it ends.

Shut It On Purpose. Longer and firmer, self-exclusion closes your account to play for a period you choose, and you cannot undo it early. Ask support to apply it; your access stays shut for the whole span you picked.

Five Questions, Straight Answers

Limits, Pauses and Help

At F1 Casino, limits sit in your own account, set calmly rather than in the heat of a session.

Does my self-exclusion finish sooner if I change my mind?+

No. Registered self-exclusion runs for the whole period you picked when it was set, and a change of heart does not shorten it. If you are signed up to BetStop, the Australian register, that period is 3 months at minimum and cannot be cut short.

What happens during a short pause, and when can I play again?+

A cooling-off period keeps you out of your account for the stretch you choose, with no bets and no deposits. Play opens again only once that cooling-off period ends. Self-exclusion is the firmer tool and blocks access for longer.

Can I call the helpline about my partner's playing?+

Yes. The National Gambling Helpline on 1800 858 858 takes calls from relatives and friends as well as players, around the clock. Their counsellors can talk through what you have noticed and point you to local services.

Where do I go if my deposit limit needs changing?+

Head to the same section of your account where the limit was first set, and adjust it there. Every limit at F1 Casino is set before play, never after a loss. Remember that limits guard your budget, not your chances of winning.

Why do I have to prove my age before I play?+

Because the minimum age at F1 Casino is 18, and proof of identity forms part of our checks. Your documents are held under 256-bit TLS encryption and reviewed within 5 hours. Age checks keep a game of chance out of the hands of minors.
