Set limits before playing
Decide the maximum time and money available before a session begins. Treat that amount as entertainment spending, not an investment, and never use money needed for rent, food, bills or savings.
Never chase losses
Every game and wager carries risk. Increasing stakes to recover a loss can deepen financial harm. Stop at the planned limit and return only after a genuine break, if at all.
Recognise warning signs
Frequent thoughts about gambling, hiding activity, borrowing money, missing obligations, increasing stakes for excitement or feeling unable to stop are signs to pause and seek support.
Use account controls
Use available deposit, loss, wagering or session limits where offered. Time-outs and self-exclusion create stronger breaks. Choose the restriction that matches the level of concern and do not try to bypass it.
Protect young people
Astromania is strictly 18+. Keep passwords and payment details private, sign out on shared devices and do not leave an active account accessible to children or another person.
Support matters
Speak with someone you trust and contact a qualified gambling-support service if play is causing distress or financial pressure. In an immediate crisis, contact local emergency or crisis support.
A simple self-check
Ask whether gambling is still enjoyable, affordable and easy to stop. If any answer is no, pause play, review account controls and seek help before gambling again.
