Responsible Gaming
Responsible gaming is a fundamental principle at wantedwin. We are committed to fostering a safe, entertaining and transparent environment on wantedwinn.com, where players consciously engage with gambling as a form of recreation. Our goal is to empower players with clear information, practical self-protection tools, and continuous support to maintain control over their gaming activities. If you ever require assistance, want guidance on setting limits, or need access to support services, wantedwin's dedicated team is here to help at every stage.
Risk Awareness
OBSERVE: Under Australian regulations and industry standards, it is mandatory to inform players of the risks associated with gambling, help them identify early signs of harm, and provide self-assessment guidance.
EXPAND: Recognizing these signs and acting proactively helps prevent gambling-related harm and promotes player safety.
REFLECT: wantedwin provides the following checklist and guidance for player awareness:
Recognizing Signs of Problem Gambling
- Preoccupation with Gambling: Frequently thinking about betting or planning your next session, even outside active play.
- Increasing Stakes: Regular escalation of bet sizes or playing longer than intended to chase losses.
- Neglecting Responsibilities: Missing work, school, or social commitments due to gambling.
- Borrowing or Selling Assets: Seeking funds from others or selling possessions to gamble.
- Gambling as Emotional Coping: Using betting to escape from life's stresses or negative emotions.
Self-Assessment Test
Consider the following questions as a private self-check. If you answer 'yes' to several, you may be at risk:
- Do you ever lose track of time while playing?
- Have you lied to friends or family about your gambling activity?
- Do you feel irritable or anxious when not gambling?
- Are you using gambling to recover previous losses?
- Has gambling negatively impacted your finances, work, or relationships?

Limits & Tools
OBSERVE: Australian compliance frameworks require all licensed operators, including those serving AU clients from international jurisdictions (wantedwinn.com, Curaçao-licensed), to provide clear player-driven limit options and self-management tools.
EXPAND: wantedwin enables you to take direct control of your activity through configurable responsible gaming features.
REFLECT: Please follow these instructions to set and manage your limits:
Setting Deposit Limits (Daily, Weekly, Monthly)
- Accessing Limit Settings: Log in to your account at wantedwinn.com and navigate to your profile settings. Select the "Responsible Gaming" section.
- Entering Limits: Choose whether to set a daily, weekly, or monthly deposit cap. Input your desired monetary amount (in AUD) for each timeframe. You cannot deposit over this figure during the selected period.
- Confirmation: Submit your changes and confirm them via an automated e-mail for security. Limit increases may require a 24-hour cooling-off period; decreases take effect immediately.
Session Time and 'Time-Out' Breaks
- Session Timer: From your "Responsible Gaming" profile page, set a maximum session duration (e.g., 1 or 2 hours). The system will automatically remind or log you out upon reaching your set duration.
- Time-Out: You may activate a "Time-Out" (short-term break) for 24, 48, or 72 hours. During this period, your account will be inaccessible, and any playing or deposit activity is blocked. To activate, select "Time-Out" and confirm the chosen period. Automatic account reactivation occurs afterwards.
Regional Compliance Note: wantedwin applies these player protection tools in line with Australian Gambling Research Centre (AGRC) and the National Consumer Protection Framework recommendations, even while operating under its Curaçao license.
