Fortuneplay Casino is committed to maintaining a secure and controlled online gambling environment for players in Australia. This Responsible Gaming Policy sets out the principles, procedures and tools adopted by the brand to help prevent problem gambling, protect vulnerable persons and ensure compliance with applicable Australian laws and regulations.
Core Principles of Responsible Gaming
Responsible gaming at Fortuneplay Casino is based on the principles of informed choice, player protection, prevention of underage gambling and support for individuals who may be at risk of developing gambling-related harm. The brand aims to ensure that gambling remains a form of entertainment and that players are able to exercise control over their time and expenditure.
Legal Age and Identity Verification
Fortuneplay Casino strictly prohibits access to its products and services by persons under 18 years of age or any higher minimum age that may apply in a particular Australian state or territory. As part of its know-your-customer procedures, the brand may request official identification documents, proof of address and, where required, additional verification to confirm that a player is legally permitted to gamble. Any attempt to create or use an account by a minor will result in immediate closure of the account and, where appropriate, notification to relevant authorities.
Player Account Controls and Limits
To support responsible gambling behaviour, Fortuneplay Casino provides a range of voluntary account controls that allow players to manage and restrict their own activity. These tools are designed to help players maintain control over their spending and time on site, and may be adjusted in accordance with the brand’s internal procedures and applicable Australian regulations.
- Deposit limits: Players may set daily, weekly or monthly deposit limits to control the amount of money they can transfer into their account within a specified period.
- Loss limits: Where available, players may define a maximum acceptable loss over a given timeframe to reduce the risk of excessive gambling.
- Wager limits: Players may set restrictions on the total amount they can wager within a selected period.
- Session limits: Players may limit the duration of individual gaming sessions to avoid prolonged and uncontrolled play.
Requests to decrease existing limits are implemented as soon as reasonably practicable. Requests to increase or remove limits may be subject to a cooling-off period, during which the previous limits remain in force, in order to support safer decision-making.
Self-Exclusion and Cooling-Off Options
Fortuneplay Casino offers self-exclusion and temporary cooling-off mechanisms for players who wish to restrict access to their account. Self-exclusion is a formal agreement between the player and the brand under which the player is prevented from using the gambling services for a specified period or, in some cases, permanently.
- Short-term cooling-off: Players may request a temporary suspension of their account for a defined period, during which access to games and deposits is blocked.
- Long-term self-exclusion: Players may request exclusion for longer periods, during which the account is locked and cannot be reactivated until the exclusion period expires and a structured reactivation process is completed, where allowed by law.
During any exclusion or cooling-off period, Fortuneplay Casino will take reasonable steps to prevent the player from opening new accounts and from receiving marketing communications. However, players are advised that they should also take independent measures, such as installing blocking software or registering with national exclusion registers where available in Australia.
Identification and Management of Problem Gambling
Fortuneplay Casino recognises that a small proportion of players may experience gambling-related difficulties. The brand implements internal procedures aimed at identifying patterns of behaviour that may indicate problem gambling, including unusually high deposit activity, frequent requests to override limits or repeated attempts to reopen self-excluded accounts. Where such indicators are detected, the brand may contact the player to provide information on responsible gaming tools, suggest the use of limits or self-exclusion, or, in serious cases, impose restrictions on the account.
Information, Education and Player Awareness
Fortuneplay Casino provides educational materials on responsible gaming, including information on how gambling works, the random nature of game outcomes, the risks of chasing losses and the importance of setting personal limits. Players are encouraged to regularly assess their gambling behaviour and to seek assistance if they notice signs of loss of control, such as gambling with money needed for essential expenses, borrowing to gamble or neglecting work, study or family obligations due to gambling.
Support and Assistance Services in Australia
Players in Australia who believe they may be experiencing gambling-related harm are strongly encouraged to contact professional support services. The following organisations offer free and confidential help, information and counselling:

Protection of Vulnerable Persons
Fortuneplay Casino advises all players to keep their login details secure and to ensure that minors and other vulnerable persons do not have access to gambling devices or accounts. The brand recommends the use of parental control tools and device-level restrictions to prevent unauthorised use. Advertising and promotional materials are not intentionally targeted at minors or individuals identified as self-excluded or otherwise vulnerable.
Continuous Improvement and Regulatory Compliance
Fortuneplay Casino reviews its responsible gaming framework on a regular basis to align with evolving Australian regulatory requirements, industry best practices and technological developments. The brand may update this Responsible Gaming Policy and related procedures from time to time. Players are encouraged to review the latest version of this policy and to contact customer support for further information regarding the responsible gaming measures available on the platform.
