Responsible Gaming

Gambling at Amunra is intended for entertainment purposes only and should never be considered a source of income or financial solution. It is essential for players to approach online pokies with a mindset of enjoyment and fun while remaining aware of their gambling habits.

Self-Control Tools

Amunra provides various responsible gambling tools to help players maintain control over their gambling activities. These tools include:

Deposit Limits: Players can set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount they deposit into their accounts. This helps manage spending and encourages responsible gambling.
Loss Limits: Players can designate a maximum amount they are willing to lose within a specific time frame. Once this limit is reached, they cannot continue gambling until the time period resets.
Wagering Limits: Players can set restrictions on the amount they can wager within a defined period, ensuring they do not exceed their budget.
Session Time Limits: Players can establish limits on how long they can play at one time. This prevents excessive gambling and encourages regular breaks.
Cooling-off Periods: If players need a temporary break from gambling, they can activate a cooling-off period, during which their account will be temporarily suspended.
Self-Exclusion Options: Players who feel they need a more extended break can choose to self-exclude themselves from Amunra for a predetermined period. During this time, they will not have access to their accounts or be able to place any bets.

Self-Assessment

To help players identify early signs of problematic gambling behavior, Amunra encourages self-reflection through the following questions:

Do you often gamble more than you intended?
Have you ever felt the need to gamble to escape from personal issues or stress?
Do you frequently chase losses by continuing to gamble in hopes of winning back lost money?
Have you experienced feelings of guilt or regret after gambling?
Are you often secretive about your gambling activities?
Has gambling affected your relationships with family or friends?
Do you find yourself prioritizing gambling over other essential responsibilities?
Have you noticed an increase in the time you spend gambling?

If players answer “yes” to any of these questions, it may indicate early signs of problematic gambling behavior, and they are encouraged to seek help.

Protection of Minors

Amunra takes the protection of minors seriously and implements several safeguards to prevent underage access to its platform. These measures include:

Age Verification: Amunra requires all players to verify their age during the registration process. This helps ensure that only individuals of legal gambling age can open an account.
KYC Checks: Know Your Customer (KYC) procedures are in place to verify the identity of players. This includes confirming the age and identity of all users, further safeguarding against underage gambling.
