Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Melody Amplifier, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Gambling should always be viewed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Only gamble with money you can afford to lose, and never chase losses or use gambling as an escape from personal difficulties.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years old (or the legal gambling age in your jurisdiction in Australia) to use our services. We take age verification seriously and may request proof of age at any time. If you're under the legal age, please do not access gambling services.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

Please review the following checklist. If you identify with any of these behaviours, you may be developing a gambling problem:

• Gambling with increasing amounts of money to achieve the same level of excitement
• Feeling restless or irritable when trying to reduce or stop gambling
• Repeatedly trying and failing to control your gambling
• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
• Hiding gambling activities or lying about the extent of your gambling
• Neglecting work, education, family, or relationships due to gambling
• Relying on others to pay for gambling debts or living expenses
• Gambling to escape problems, anxiety, depression, or other negative emotions
• Experiencing financial difficulties directly caused by gambling
• Continuing to gamble despite knowing it's causing harm

Self-Help Tools & Safer Gambling Features

Our platform provides several tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:

• Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly limits on the amount you can deposit
• Loss Limits: Restrict the amount you can lose within a specified time period
• Session Reminders: Receive reality checks and time notifications during gaming sessions
• Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing your account
• Account Closure: Request permanent closure of your account if needed

We encourage all players to use these tools as part of their responsible gaming strategy.
