Responsible Gaming
Introduction
At rallytours.co.nz, we believe that casino gaming should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. While SpinBet and other online casinos can provide enjoyable gaming experiences, it's important to understand that the house always has a mathematical advantage. Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
In New Zealand, you must be 18 years of age or older to participate in casino gaming and online gambling activities. It is illegal for anyone under 18 to gamble. All operators are required to verify your age before allowing you to create an account and place bets.
If you are under 18, please do not attempt to access gambling websites. If you know a minor who is gambling, please encourage them to speak with a trusted adult or contact support services.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognize any of the following warning signs in yourself or someone you know, it may be time to seek help:
- Chasing Losses: Continuing to gamble in an attempt to recover money you've lost
- Hiding Gambling Activity: Being secretive about the time or money spent gambling
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Prioritizing gambling over work, education, family, or personal commitments
- Increasing Amounts: Needing to gamble with larger amounts to achieve the same excitement
- Failed Attempts to Stop: Repeatedly trying to cut back or quit without success
- Gambling When Distressed: Using gambling to escape problems, anxiety, or depression
- Financial Strain: Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
- Relationship Conflict: Gambling causing arguments with family or friends
- Preoccupation: Constantly thinking about gambling or planning the next session
Self-Help Tools and Safeguards
Most responsible online casinos, including SpinBet, offer tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Establish a limit on the maximum losses you are willing to accept
- Reality Checks: Enable reminders that pop up during your gaming session to remind you of time and money spent
- Time-Out / Cool-Off Periods: Take a temporary break from gambling for a set period
- Self-Exclusion: Permanently close your account if you feel you cannot control your gambling
We strongly encourage you to use these tools proactively. They are designed to help you gamble responsibly and maintain control over your gaming habits.
