Responsible Gaming

Gaming Should Be Entertainment

At Sphynx Devon, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. NRL betting should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. If you find yourself gambling beyond your means, help is available.

Age Verification

You must be at least 18 years of age (or the legal gambling age in your Australian state or territory) to use our services. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.

If you are under the legal age, please do not register or place bets on our platform.

Warning Signs of Problem Gambling

If you experience any of the following, you may have a gambling problem:

• Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money you've lost
• Hiding your gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
• Gambling with money needed for essentials like rent, bills, or food
• Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
• Gambling for longer periods than intended
• Unsuccessful attempts to cut back or stop gambling
• Neglecting work, school, or relationships due to gambling
• Borrowing money or going into debt to fund gambling
• Lying to others about the extent of your gambling
• Using gambling as an escape from stress, anxiety, or depression

Self-Help Tools & Controls

We provide tools to help you maintain control of your gaming:

• Deposit Limits: Set maximum amounts you can deposit within a specific timeframe (daily, weekly, or monthly)
• Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose during a session or period
• Reality Checks: Receive notifications reminding you how long you've been gambling and how much you've spent
• Session Limits: Set time limits for your gaming sessions
• Self-Exclusion: Voluntarily exclude yourself from your account for a period you choose
