Gambling should always be regarded as a form of entertainment rather than a way to make money. At Pelican Casino we encourage players to enjoy games responsibly, understand the risks, and make informed decisions about their play.
This page explains our approach to responsible gaming, privacy, cookies, betting rules and terms. It sets out the tools and safeguards we provide and the expectations we have of our customers.
At Pelican Casino we promote safe play and work to reduce gambling-related harm. We provide clear guidance, tools and support options so players can control their activity and seek help if gambling becomes a problem.
Our Commitment to Responsible Gambling
Pelican Casino is committed to fostering an environment that prioritises player wellbeing. We design our services to offer transparency about risks and to prevent excessive play. Our team trains to recognise at-risk behaviour and to respond with appropriate support and interventions.
We make responsible gambling information prominent and easy to find. Our objective is to balance customer enjoyment with practical safeguards that help players make responsible choices.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can be difficult to spot. Common signs include chasing losses, neglecting responsibilities, changes in mood tied to play, and spending more time or money than intended. If you or someone you know shows these signs, it may be time to reassess gaming habits.
Pelican Casino encourages customers and staff to be alert to these indicators and to take prompt action when concerns arise.
Self-Assessment and Limits
We provide options that let players tailor their experience and limit potential harm. Using self-assessment and limits can help maintain control over gambling activity.
- Deposit limits - set daily, weekly or monthly caps on how much you can deposit
- Loss limits - restrict total losses over a specified period
- Reality checks - periodic reminders showing session time and activity
- Cooling-off periods - short breaks from play to pause activity and reflect
- Self-exclusion - long-term account suspension where access is blocked
Responsible Gaming Tools
Pelican Casino offers a range of tools to help customers manage their play. These controls are accessible from your account settings and can be adjusted as required.
- Account limits - set and change deposit or loss limits directly in your profile
- Session reminders - configurable pop-ups that show elapsed session time
- Timeouts - temporary suspensions of account access for short periods
- Permanent self-exclusion - options to close or block accounts long term
- Transaction summaries - clear statements of deposits, wagers and outcomes
Support and Assistance
If gambling becomes difficult to control we encourage players to seek professional help. Independent organisations provide confidential advice and treatment options for people affected by gambling.
For questions about our tools or to request account restrictions you can contact our support team at [email protected]. For external help, consider the following independent resources:
- Gambling Help Online - independent online and telephone support available across Australia
- Australian Government - Gambling Support Services - information on local services and support options
National Gambling Helpline 1800 858 858 is a free and confidential support service for people affected by gambling. These organisations are independent external support services and are not operated by Pelican Casino.
Underage Gambling
Only individuals aged 18 or older may use the website. We take steps to prevent underage gambling, including verification checks and restrictions on account activity where age cannot be confirmed.
Parental Controls
Parents and guardians should use available device and network-level controls to limit minors' access to our site. We encourage families to discuss responsible use of the internet and to monitor gaming activity where appropriate.
Tips for Staying in Control
Practical steps can reduce the risk of harm and keep gaming enjoyable. Consider the following guidance:
- Set a strict budget for entertainment and never gamble money needed for essentials
- Use deposit and loss limits to keep spending within comfortable bounds
- Schedule breaks and avoid extended sessions; use reality checks to stay aware
- Never chase losses; accept outcomes as part of entertainment variance
- Limit access to funds by removing saved payment methods if needed
Changes to This Policy
We may update responsible gaming information and tools over time. Where material changes occur we will notify customers by prominent notice on our site or by direct communication when appropriate.
Players are responsible for reviewing our policies regularly to stay informed about available safeguards and any changes to procedures.
