Responsible Gambling at Kingmaker Casino

Our Approach to Responsible Gambling

At Kingmaker Casino we build every part of the account around one idea: you decide how much time and money goes into play, and we make that decision easy to keep. Gambling should fit around your life in Australia, not the other way round. Wins are never guaranteed, and every game result is random, whether it is a pokie spin, a hand of live blackjack or a Fortune Wheel turn.

Our approach rests on four commitments:

• Entertainment first. We present our games and rewards as leisure spending. Set a budget you would be comfortable spending on a night out and treat it as gone once it is played.
• Player safety. Our support team is trained to respond to requests for limits, breaks and exclusions. This includes requests made through live chat at any hour.
• Age restrictions. Our casino is for adults aged 18 and over only, and we verify identity before withdrawals are paid.
• Account controls. You can ask us to restrict deposits, pause your account or close it. Once a restriction is applied, we honour it across the casino and the rest of the account.

Bonuses also carry rules designed to keep play measured. These include a maximum bet of €100 while a casino bonus is active and a 10-day wagering window. Our promo code and bonus terms explain these in full. If an offer encourages you to deposit more than you planned, skip it. Turning down a bonus costs you nothing.

Kingmaker Casino Self Exclusion

Self-exclusion is the strongest step available at our casino. It is a formal request to block your own access to real-money play for a set period. Unlike a quick break, it is designed for players who feel gambling is no longer under control and want a firm barrier rather than willpower alone.

How to request it

You can request a kingmaker casino self exclusion through our 24/7 live chat or by writing to support@kingmaker.com from the email address registered on your account. Say clearly that you want to self-exclude and how long you want the exclusion to last. Our team confirms which periods can be applied to your account at the time of the request.

What happens to the account

• You cannot make deposits, place bets or open real-money games while the exclusion runs.
• We stop sending promotional emails and offers for our bonuses, reloads and cashback.
• Any active bonus is cancelled. Under our bonus rules, cancelling a bonus forfeits the bonus balance.
• Real-money funds left in your balance can still be withdrawn to a verified method. Processing takes up to 3 business days, and your payment provider may add its own delays. Our withdrawal guide covers the steps.
• Opening a second account to get around an exclusion is not allowed. We close duplicate accounts when we find them.

Duration and options

We treat an exclusion as binding for the full period you choose, so choose a length that gives you real breathing room. If you are unsure, a longer period is usually the safer choice. When the period ends, the account is not reopened automatically. You need to contact support, and we may ask a few questions before restoring access.

How to Self Exclude from Kingmaker Casino

1. Contact support Open live chat from any page of the casino, or email support@kingmaker.com from your registered address. If you are logged in, the agent can see your account straight away.
2. Request exclusion Use the words "self-exclusion" so your message is not treated as a routine closure or a short break. You do not have to explain your reasons.
3. Select the duration Choose from the periods our team offers. Write the end date down so you know exactly when the block expires.
4. Confirm the request The agent repeats the details back to you: account, period and what is restricted. Reply to confirm, and withdraw any real-money balance you want first if you have not already done so.
5. Account restrictions are applied Deposits, gameplay and marketing are switched off. You receive confirmation, and from then on the account stays locked until the period ends.

Tip: after confirming, consider deleting saved logins on your devices. You can also use device-level blocking software as an extra layer, particularly on a shared family computer or tablet.

Temporary Account Breaks

Not every pause needs to be a long exclusion. Sometimes you simply want a few days or weeks off, perhaps after a heavy weekend or during a busy period at work. A temporary break covers that.

Cooling-off period

A cooling-off period is a short, fixed pause that you request through support. During it you cannot deposit or play. The idea is to put distance between an impulse and the next session, so the decision to return is made calmly.

Temporary closure

A temporary closure locks the account without a set restart date until you ask us to reopen it. It suits players who want a break but are not sure how long they need.

Difference from full self-exclusion

Both breaks are lighter tools. They are meant for players who are in control but want a pause, and reopening is simpler once the agreed period has passed. Self-exclusion is built for situations where control has slipped. It runs for the full chosen term and is not shortened on request. If you take repeated breaks and keep coming back sooner than you intended, that is a signal to consider self-exclusion instead.

Closing a Kingmaker Casino Account

Players often use "closing" to mean three different things. The difference matters, because each option changes what you can do later.

Before closing, withdraw any real-money balance and check that pending withdrawals have completed. If you close for gambling-related reasons, tell our agent. A closure requested for those reasons should be handled as self-exclusion, which gives you stronger protection than a standard closure. Details on how we store account records after closure are in our privacy policy.

Underage Gambling

Our casino is strictly for adults. Anyone under 18 cannot register, deposit or play for real money, and our terms and conditions make 18+ a condition of every account and every bonus.

• Minimum legal age: 18 years. Where local law sets a higher age, that higher age applies.
• Account verification: we request identity documents as part of KYC checks, and always before a withdrawal is approved. Accounts found to belong to minors are closed, and stakes may be voided.
• Prevention: keep phones and laptops locked with a PIN or biometrics. Never leave the casino logged in on a shared device, and use parental control software on household computers.

If you believe a minor is using one of our accounts, contact support and we will investigate.

Signs Gambling May Be Becoming a Problem

Problems tend to build gradually. These patterns are well-recognised warning signs. If one or more feels familiar, it is a good moment to set a limit or take a break:

• Chasing losses: depositing again to win back what you just lost, or raising stakes after a losing run.
• Spending beyond budget: using money meant for rent, bills or groceries, or borrowing to keep playing.
• Hiding gambling: keeping deposits or time spent on play from a partner, family or friends.
• Effects on work and relationships: missing shifts, losing sleep, arguments at home or losing interest in things you used to enjoy.
• Playing to escape: turning to the pokies to cope with stress, boredom or low mood.

Getting Help

You do not need to wait until things feel serious. Reaching out early makes every step easier.

Protecting Your Account

Your limits and exclusions only work if the account stays yours. A few habits keep it secure:

• No account sharing: one person, one account. Do not lend your login to anyone, and do not play on someone else's profile.
• Strong password: use a long, unique password that you do not use for email or banking, and change it if you suspect anyone else knows it.
• 2FA: if two-step verification is available in your profile security settings, switch it on so a code is needed on top of your password.
• Payment details: only deposit with cards, e-wallets or crypto wallets in your own name. Never share card numbers, wallet seed phrases or one-time codes, including with anyone claiming to be from our team.
