Responsible Gaming at Grand Eagle Casino
At Grand Eagle Casino, we believe that gambling should always be an enjoyable and entertaining experience. We are fully committed to promoting responsible gaming practices for all players in New Zealand. Our goal is to provide a safe, fair, and transparent environment where you can play with confidence, knowing that your wellbeing is our top priority.
Our Commitment to Safe Gambling in New Zealand
Grand Eagle Casino takes responsible gambling seriously. We comply with New Zealand regulations and international best-practice standards to ensure that every player has access to the tools and support they need to stay in control. Whether you are a casual player or a regular visitor, we encourage you to set clear boundaries and make informed decisions about your gambling habits.
Tools to Help You Stay in Control
We offer a comprehensive range of responsible gaming tools designed to put you in control of your gambling experience:
- Deposit Limits: Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to manage how much you spend. Limits can be reduced instantly but increases require a cooling-off period.
- Session Time Limits: Define how long you wish to play in a single session. When your limit is reached, you will be prompted to take a break.
- Loss Limits: Cap the amount you can lose over a defined period, helping you avoid chasing losses.
- Reality Checks: Receive regular pop-up notifications reminding you how long you have been playing and how much you have wagered.
- Self-Exclusion: If you feel you need a break, you can self-exclude for a period of your choice — from days to permanently. During this time, you will be unable to access your account.
- Cool-Off Period: Take a short break of 24 hours, 7 days, or 30 days without fully closing your account.
Recognising Problem Gambling
It is important to recognise the warning signs of problem gambling early. You may need support if you are gambling more than you can afford, borrowing money to gamble, neglecting responsibilities, or feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling. If any of these signs sound familiar, please reach out for help immediately.
