Platinum Play Casino Responsible Gaming

At Platinum Play Casino, we are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable gaming environment for all our players in New Zealand. Responsible gaming means playing for entertainment while maintaining control over your time and spending. This page outlines our commitment to player wellbeing and the tools available to help you gamble responsibly.

Our Commitment to Your Wellbeing

We understand that while most people enjoy casino gaming as a form of entertainment, for some individuals it can become problematic. As a leading online casino serving New Zealand players, we take our responsibility seriously to promote safe gambling practices and provide support when needed.

From the moment you complete your Platinum Play login, we ensure that responsible gaming tools are readily accessible. Our platform is designed with player protection at its core, integrating features that help you maintain control of your gaming activity.

Recognising Problem Gambling

Understanding the warning signs of problem gambling is the first step toward maintaining healthy gaming habits. Consider whether any of these statements apply to you:

  • You spend more time or money gambling than you can afford
  • Gambling interferes with your work, relationships, or daily responsibilities
  • You feel the need to hide your gambling activity from family or friends
  • You chase losses by gambling more to win back money
  • You borrow money or sell possessions to fund your gambling
  • You feel anxious, guilty, or depressed about your gambling
  • You have tried to stop or reduce gambling but found it difficult
  • Gambling affects your mental health or causes relationship problems

If any of these signs resonate with you, it may be time to seek support and consider using the responsible gaming tools available through your Platinum Play Casino login.

Responsible Gaming Tools

We provide comprehensive tools to help you manage your gaming activity effectively. These features are accessible immediately after you log in and can be adjusted at any time.

Deposit Limits

Set daily, weekly, or monthly deposit limits to control how much money you can add to your account. Once a limit is reached, you will not be able to deposit additional funds until the specified time period resets. These limits help ensure you never spend more than you can afford.

Loss Limits

Establish maximum loss thresholds for specific time periods. This tool calculates your net losses (deposits minus withdrawals) and prevents further play once your predetermined limit is reached, protecting you from excessive losses.

Session Time Reminders

Configure alerts that notify you after a specific duration of continuous play. These reminders help you maintain awareness of time spent gaming and encourage regular breaks, promoting a balanced approach to entertainment.

Reality Checks

Receive periodic notifications displaying your current session duration and net wins or losses. This transparency helps you make informed decisions about continuing or concluding your gaming session.

Self-Exclusion

If you feel you need a break from gambling, you can choose to self-exclude from Platinum Play for a period ranging from 24 hours to six months, or permanently. During this time, you will be unable to access your account, and all marketing communications will cease. This option is irreversible for the chosen duration.

Account Closure

For those who wish to permanently close their account, we offer a straightforward closure process. Once processed, your account will be deactivated, and any remaining balance will be returned to you through your preferred withdrawal method.

Tips for Responsible Gaming

Maintaining a healthy relationship with casino gaming requires mindfulness and self-discipline. Consider these practical guidelines:

Set a Budget

Decide in advance how much money you can afford to lose without impacting your essential expenses. Treat this as entertainment spending, similar to a night out or cinema ticket.

Set Time Limits

Establish clear boundaries for how long you will play in a single session. Use alarms or reminders to help you stick to your predetermined time limit.

Never Chase Losses

Accept that losses are part of gaming. Trying to win back lost money by gambling more often leads to larger losses and can quickly spiral out of control.

Keep It Balanced

Ensure gambling does not interfere with other important activities, relationships, or responsibilities. Maintain diverse hobbies and social connections.

Do Not Gamble Under Influence

Avoid gambling when under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or when experiencing emotional distress, as this impairs judgment and decision-making.

Take Regular Breaks

Step away from your screen periodically to maintain perspective and prevent fatigue-induced poor decisions. Use break time to assess whether you are still enjoying yourself.

Underage Gambling Prevention

Platinum Play Casino strictly prohibits anyone under the age of 18 from creating an account or accessing our gaming services. We employ robust age verification procedures during the registration process to ensure compliance with New Zealand gambling regulations.

Parents and guardians are encouraged to use internet filtering software and parental controls to prevent minors from accessing online gambling sites. We recommend discussing the risks associated with gambling with young people to promote awareness and education.

If you become aware that a minor has accessed our platform using your account credentials after your Platinum Play Casino login, please contact our support team immediately so we can take appropriate action.
