Stay in Control

Wild Horse Casino Responsible Gambling

Plain-English tools and support, available from inside every account, that help keep play in the fun bracket.

Tools that sit one click away

All of the controls below live in your account settings. Most take effect the moment you save them.

Deposit limits

Cap how much can land in your account daily, weekly or monthly. Reductions are immediate, increases take 24 hours by design.

Session limits

Set a clock for how long any single session can last. The screen logs you out when the limit hits.

Reality checks

Pop-up reminders at 15, 30 or 60-minute intervals showing time played, net result and a one-click logout.

Cool-off

A short break from one day up to six weeks. Account paused with no marketing emails during the window.

Self-exclusion

Six months, one year or permanent. Cannot be reversed early. Marketing cut off for the full period.

Talk to support

If you would rather have a quiet chat about your account first, support will walk you through the options with no pressure.

Signs worth keeping an eye on

Most people play without ever needing the bigger tools. A few patterns are worth flagging because they often show up before a small problem turns into a bigger one.

Chasing losses

Increasing stakes after a losing session to break even. Almost always makes things worse.

Hiding sessions

Playing when family or partners are not around, or being vague when asked.

Borrowing to play

Using credit cards, loans or money set aside for bills.

Playing past planned limits

Going beyond the time or money you sat down with, then doing it again.

Feeling low after play

Persistent guilt, irritability or anxiety triggered by sessions.

Skipping commitments

Missing work, family events or social plans to play.

Step by step

Setting a self-exclusion

  1. 1

    Open account settings

    Sign in and head to the responsible gambling tab. Every tool sits in one place with a short description next to each one.

  2. 2

    Choose your window

    Pick the length of break. Six months is the minimum for a full self-exclusion. Shorter cool-off options are available.

  3. 3

    Confirm the request

    A short confirmation step prevents accidental clicks. Once submitted the change is final for the full period.

  4. 4

    Account is paused

    Your account is locked, marketing emails stop and any pending bonuses are cancelled. Cash balances can still be withdrawn.

  5. 5

    Optional support

    A short list of independent support services is shown on the confirmation screen.

Independent Australian support

Free and confidential help is available from organisations with no link to the casino industry.

  • Gambling Help Online · 1800 858 858 · 24 hours, free
  • GambleAware · gambleaware.nsw.gov.au · counselling and online tools
  • Gamblers Anonymous Australia · gaaustralia.org.au · peer support meetings

For family and friends

If you are worried about someone close to you, Gambling Help Online runs a dedicated line for family members. Lifeline covers broader wellbeing support 24/7.

Reaching out early tends to make a meaningful difference. Most people who seek help find the first conversation alone takes weight off their shoulders.

Our part of the bargain

A casino has obligations that go beyond putting the tools on the page. Our staff are trained to look for early signs of harm and to step in when patterns shift in a worrying way.

Age verification happens at sign-up and on first withdrawal. Accounts opened by anyone under 18 are closed immediately and deposits returned. Marketing emails carry a one-click unsubscribe and stop completely the moment a self-exclusion is in place.

For independent help, Gambling Help Online on 1800 858 858 is staffed 24 hours a day. The account closure page walks through cool-off, standard closure and self-exclusion in detail.

Good to know

How do you set deposit, loss or session limits?

All of the limit-setting tools sit inside your account in the responsible gambling tab. Deposit, loss and session limits each have their own card and can be configured as daily, weekly or monthly caps. Lowering a limit takes effect immediately the moment you save the change. Raising a limit goes through a built-in 24-hour cooling-off window by design.

What is the difference between cool-off and self-exclusion?

A cool-off is a short pause from one day up to six weeks. Your account is locked for the chosen window, marketing emails stop and the account reopens automatically at the end. Self-exclusion is longer, available in six-month, one-year and permanent durations. It cannot be reversed early under any circumstance, which is the whole point of the tool.
