Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Responsible Gaming
At georgetix.com, we are committed to promoting safe and responsible gaming practices. We believe that online pokies should be enjoyed as entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you choose to play, please do so within your means and for enjoyment purposes only.
Age Verification
Online gambling is strictly for adults only. In Australia, you must be at least 18 years of age to participate in online gambling activities. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under 18, please do not proceed.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing losses by gambling more money to recover what you've lost
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape from problems or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
- Lying about the extent of your gambling involvement
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
Self-Help Tools
We provide several tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specified time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the maximum amount you are willing to lose during gaming sessions
- Reality Checks: Receive regular reminders during play to keep track of time and money spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing your account and all gaming services
- Account Closure: Close your account if you need to take a break from gaming
