Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At foodtechaus.com, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online pokies and casino games should be enjoyed purely as entertainment. They are games of chance with no guaranteed way to earn money. Never gamble with money you cannot afford to lose, and always view gambling as a form of entertainment with associated costs, not as a source of income.
Age Verification
You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your state or territory) to access and use PayPal pokies and casino services on this website. We take age verification seriously and comply with all Australian gambling regulations. If you are under the legal age, please do not proceed.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Gambling can become problematic. If you recognise any of these warning signs, please seek help:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Lying to family, friends, or others about gambling activities
- Neglecting work, study, or personal relationships due to gambling
- Using gambling to escape negative emotions or stress
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Experiencing anxiety, depression, or irritability when unable to gamble
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Hiding gambling activities or concealing the extent of involvement
Self-Help Tools & Controls
Most reputable online gaming platforms offer responsible gaming tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to deposit per day, week, or month
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you're willing to lose during a gaming session
- Session Time Limits: Set automatic reminders or time-outs to take breaks
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic pop-up notifications of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from gaming sites for a set period (weeks, months, or years)
- Account Closure: Permanently close your account if you wish to stop gambling entirely
We encourage you to use these tools proactively to maintain responsible gambling habits.
