Responsible Gaming

Responsible gaming at oz-win.casino means making thoughtful, informed choices about gambling for entertainment. Our guiding principle is to support players in maintaining a healthy balance between enjoyment and control, while raising awareness of the risks associated with gambling. ozwins is committed to delivering a safe gaming environment and proactive customer support, dedicated to assisting those who encounter challenges with their play behaviour.

Risk Awareness

OBSERVE: AU regulations and Curaçao licensing require proactive educational content regarding gambling harm. Recognition of problematic behaviour is an essential compliance and consumer safety element.
EXPAND: ozwins, operating under Antillephone N.V. (Curaçao license 8048/JAZ2020-013, valid until 2025), is obligated to inform users about the signs of gambling addiction, providing self-assessment and direct pathways to support.
REFLECT: The following addresses identification of risk behaviour in line with industry and jurisdictional standards.

Common Signs of Problematic Gambling

  • Frequent or escalating bets: Playing more frequently, increasing stakes to recoup losses, or chasing wins/losses.
  • Preoccupation with gambling: Thinking about oz-win.casino games or gambling activities outside actual play sessions.
  • Difficulty sticking to limits: Repeatedly exceeding budget or time limits set for gaming sessions.
  • Neglecting responsibilities: Skipping work, school, or family obligations to gamble online.
  • Financial worries: Borrowing money, selling assets, or using savings intended for other purposes to fund gambling.

Self-Assessment: Gambling Behaviour Check

If you are concerned about your gambling, consider the following questions:

  • Do you gamble beyond your set financial or time limits?
  • Have you tried to stop gambling but found yourself unable?
  • Are relationships, work, or studies being affected by your gambling?
  • Do you feel anxious, restless, or irritable when not gambling?
  • Have you ever lied to friends or family about your gambling activity?

If you answered "yes" to any of the above, you are encouraged to use the support tools and resources listed below or contact customer support for confidential assistance.

Limits & Tools

OBSERVE: AU best practices require layered responsible gaming controls, including voluntary limit setting. Curaçao licensees must enable self-imposed controls over deposits, losses, and time spent.
EXPAND: ozwins integrates tools for player-driven management, covering deposit and session limits, as well as temporary account suspension ("Time-Out").
REFLECT: Instructions follow to ensure accessible risk mitigation procedures.

How to Set Deposit Limits

  1. Login to your oz-win.casino personal account.
  2. Navigate to "Responsible Gaming" or "Limits" in the account settings menu.
  3. Select the limit type:
    • Daily Limit: Restricts the total deposit amount per 24-hour period
    • Weekly Limit: Restricts deposits for a rolling 7-day period
    • Monthly Limit: Restricts deposits for a 30-day period
  4. Enter the desired maximum deposit amount for the selected period (numeric values only, in AUD).
  5. Confirm your new limit. Limits will apply immediately, and cannot be raised for at least 7 days (industry cooling-off standard for AU).

Session Timers & Time-Out (Taking a Break)

  • Set session timers via "Session Management" in your personal account. This allows you to monitor time spent and receive notifications when reaching your preset session duration.
  • Enable a Time-Out by selecting "Take a Break" in the Responsible Gaming settings. You may choose a pause duration between 24 and 72 hours; your account will be locked for gaming and deposits for the selected period.

Note: ozwins enforces these settings in accordance with regulatory requirements. Any attempt to bypass these protections before expiry will not be permitted.

Self-Exclusion

OBSERVE: AU standards and Curaçao license mandate that players can exclude themselves temporarily or permanently from gambling activities. Operators must provide clear procedures and ensure all forms of gambling are inaccessible during exclusion.
EXPAND: ozwins enables detailed self-exclusion through direct user controls, escalation to customer support, and firm enforcement throughout the platform.
REFLECT: The stepwise process below offers full coverage of legal and procedural self-exclusion rights and obligations.

  4. Confirm your decision: Submission of the self-exclusion request requires active confirmation (re-entry of password or two-factor code).
  5. Support contact: For assistance or if you are unable to access the account's self-exclusion tool, immediately contact ozwins Responsible Gaming Support via our official website contact form at oz-win.casino.

Refund policy: Any remaining account balances at the time of permanent exclusion can be withdrawn by request to support, in accordance with the operator's policies and AU legal obligations. Access to the account will be limited solely to facilitate withdrawal.
