Responsible Gambling
At Casino Adelaide, we are committed to providing a safe, fair, and enjoyable gaming environment for all our patrons. We believe that gambling should always remain a form of entertainment, and we take our responsibility to support the wellbeing of our customers seriously.
Our Commitment
Casino Adelaide operates in full compliance with the Casino Act 1997 (SA) and adheres to the guidelines set by the Consumer and Business Services (CBS) of South Australia. Our Responsible Gambling program is regularly reviewed and updated to reflect current best practices and regulatory requirements.
Recognising Problem Gambling
Gambling becomes a problem when it negatively affects your finances, relationships, work, or mental health. Ask yourself the following questions:
- Do you spend more money on gambling than you can afford?
- Do you gamble to escape stress, anxiety, or personal problems?
- Have you lied to family or friends about your gambling habits?
- Do you feel restless or irritable when trying to cut back on gambling?
- Have you borrowed money or sold possessions to fund gambling?
- Do you chase losses by continuing to gamble after losing?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, we encourage you to seek support.
Self-Exclusion Program
Casino Adelaide offers a voluntary Self-Exclusion Program that allows individuals to ban themselves from the casino premises for a nominated period. Self-exclusion can be arranged for a minimum period of 12 months and can be extended indefinitely.

Pre-Commitment and Spending Limits
We encourage all patrons to set personal spending limits before they begin playing. Casino Adelaide supports pre-commitment tools that allow you to:
- Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit and loss limits
- Receive alerts when approaching your nominated limit
- Take a cooling-off break from gaming at any time
Speak to a member of our Responsible Gambling team at the gaming floor for assistance setting up these tools.
