Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Cakes in a Jar, we believe that online gaming should be an enjoyable form of entertainment only. Gambling should never be viewed as a way to earn money, supplement your income, or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
Online gambling in Australia is only available to persons aged 18 years and over (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction). By accessing our site, you confirm that you meet these age requirements and comply with all applicable laws in your location.
If you are under the legal gambling age, please do not use this service.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Do you recognise any of these warning signs in your gambling behaviour? If so, please seek help immediately:
- Chasing losses by gambling with more money to recover what you've lost
- Hiding your gambling habits from family, friends, or partners
- Gambling with money intended for essentials (rent, bills, food)
- Spending more time and money on gambling than you intended
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or restless when trying to reduce gambling
- Lying about the amount of money spent on gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Neglecting work, study, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, depression, or other problems
- Gambling larger amounts to achieve the same level of excitement
