Responsible Gaming

Gambling Should Be Entertainment, Not Income

At Brocante in the Barossa, we believe that online pokies and casino gaming should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. Gambling is never a reliable way to make money or solve financial problems. Please play within your means and only gamble with money you can afford to lose.

Remember: the odds always favour the house. Set a budget before you play, and stick to it.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your Australian state or territory) to access gambling services on this website.

We take age verification seriously. It is illegal for minors to gamble. If you are under 18, please do not register or play.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Do you recognise any of these warning signs in yourself or someone you know?

• Chasing losses by gambling more to win back money you've lost

If you recognise any of these signs, help is available. Please reach out to a support service immediately.

Self-Help Tools & Responsible Gambling Features

Most reputable gambling operators offer tools to help you maintain control:

• Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a day, week, or month
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you are willing to lose
• Reality Checks: Receive reminders during gameplay about how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
• Time-Out/Cool-Off Periods: Take a break from gambling for a set period
• Self-Exclusion: Exclude yourself from gambling sites for a longer period (typically 6 months to indefinitely)

We encourage you to use these tools if you feel your gambling is becoming problematic.
