Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Fun, Not Financial
Online pokies should be enjoyed as entertainment only, not as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Playing should always be within your means, with money you can afford to lose.
At Revive Beauty Wanaka, we're committed to promoting responsible gaming practices and supporting the wellbeing of our community.
Age Verification
Online gambling in New Zealand is available only to individuals aged 18 years and over. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of identity at any time.
If you are under 18, please do not access gambling services on this website.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
Problem gambling can develop gradually. If you recognise any of the following signs, it may be time to seek help:
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Chasing losses by gambling more to try to recover money
- Hiding gambling activity from family, friends, or partners
- Using gambling to escape stress, anxiety, or negative emotions
- Borrowing money or going into debt to gamble
- Neglecting work, study, family, or personal responsibilities
- Experiencing mood changes after gambling sessions
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when not gambling
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
If you experience any of these signs, please reach out for support immediately.
Self-Help Tools & Safeguards
Most responsible gambling platforms offer the following tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a daily, weekly, or monthly limit on the amount you can deposit
- Loss Limits: Set a maximum amount you're willing to lose in a session or period
- Reality Checks: Receive regular notifications during play sessions about time and money spent
- Session Time Limits: Automatically log out after a set period of play
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from gambling for a set period
- Account Cooling-Off Period: Take a break from gambling for a defined timeframe
We encourage you to use these tools proactively. They are designed to help you stay in control of your gaming.
