Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At FairGo Casino Australia, we believe that online gaming should only ever be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Like any form of entertainment, it carries risks and should only be enjoyed responsibly by adults who can afford to lose what they wager.
We are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and providing our players with the tools and support they need to maintain control over their gaming activity.
Age Verification
In Australia, you must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal age in your state) to access and use FairGo Casino. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time. If you are under the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction, please do not register or attempt to gamble.

Problem gambling can affect anyone. Please review the following warning signs and seek help if you recognise any of them in your own behaviour:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Spending more time and money on gambling than intended
- Neglecting family, work, or other responsibilities due to gambling
- Hiding gambling activity or lying to family and friends about the extent of your gambling
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Using gambling as an escape from problems or negative emotions
- Failed attempts to cut back or stop gambling
- Gambling affecting your mental health, relationships, or finances
If any of these warning signs apply to you, please reach out for support immediately.
