Responsible Gambling

What Responsible Gambling Tools Does BetBetBet Offer?

We offer a number of user-friendly tools to help our Customers maintain control of their gambling including:

Deposit Limits;
Take-A-Break (Temporary Self-Exclusion);
Permanent Self-Exclusion; and
Account Closure / De-Activation.

How Do I Set a Deposit Limit?

A Deposit Limit can help you control the amount you spend on gambling and ensure that the punt doesn't become a problem for you. Research shows that gambling problems are reduced when punters decide in advance how much money they are willing to spend.

At BetBetBet, we offer a Deposit Limit facility that allows you to limit the amount you can deposit into your account on a daily, weekly, fortnightly or monthly basis. You can access the Deposit Limit facility via the My Account section on any of our wagering channels. Alternatively, you can contact your friendly BetBetBet support staff via Live Chat or by sending us an email to [email protected] and we can apply your Deposit Limit for you.

A request to set a Deposit Limit is effective only after the Customer has completed the online or other form (and received confirmation that the form has been successfully submitted), or otherwise after the Customer has been advised by BetBetBet in writing that the Customer's desired Deposit Limit has been successfully applied.

If a Customer withdraws their request to set or modify their Deposit Limit before it has been successfully applied, the request to so set or modify the Deposit Limit will not be applied.

Where a Customer has set a Deposit Limit, they must not establish, or transact using, another BetBetBet Customer Account or do any other act intended to circumvent their earlier set Deposit Limit.

A Customer may request a change to their Deposit Limit at any time.

If a Customer requests that their Deposit Limit be decreased, the modified Deposit Limit will be applied, and come into effect, immediately.

If a Customer requests that their Deposit Limit be increased, the increased Deposit Limit will take effect no earlier than seven (7) days after the successful submission of their Deposit Limit Change Request. If the Customer does not advise BetBetBet within seven (7) days that they wish to revoke their request to increase their Deposit Limit, the increased Deposit Limit will be applied as per the request.

How Do I Close My BetBetBet Account?

You are able to close your BetBetBet Customer Account at any time via the Responsible Gambling tab in the My Account section on any of our wagering channels. Alternatively, you can contact your friendly BetBetBet support staff by one of the following methods and we can process your request for you:

Live Chat while logged into the BetBetBet platform;
Email at [email protected]; and/or
Phone / SMS on 0418 994 497.

You will be logged out and prevented from logging in immediately upon your submission of a Deactivate Account request.

Deactivated Customer Accounts are able to be re-opened in the future. If you wish to reactivate a deactivated BetBetBet Customer Account, please Contact our friendly BetBetBet support staff.

Please note, that a request to deactivate a BetBetBet Customer Account is not the same as, and does not have the same effect as, a request to temporarily or permanently self-exclude. Deactivated Customer Accounts are able to be re-opened upon request. If you are seeking to deactivate your BetBetBet Customer Account in order to prevent you gambling, or to manage the amount of time or money you are spending on gambling, you should consider submitting a 'Take A Break' request or setting a Deposit Limit.

How Do I Self-Exclude?

BetBetBet provides its Customers with the option to either 'Take A Break' from betting with BetBetBet or to permanently exclude themselves from the BetBetBet platform. You can submit a 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request via the My Account section on any of our wagering channels. Alternatively, you can contact your friendly BetBetBet support staff via Live Chat or by sending us an email to [email protected] and we can process your request for you.

A 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request is effective only after the Customer has completed the online or other form (and received confirmation that the form has been successfully submitted), or otherwise after the Customer has been advised by BetBetBet in writing that the Customer's desired 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request has been processed and that the requested account restrictions have been applied.

If a Customer withdraws their 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request before it has been processed and the requested account restrictions applied, the requested account restrictions will not be applied.

Once a 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request has been processed, the Customer will be immediately logged out of the BetBetBet platform and prevented from logging in until the expiry of the self-exclusion period. The Customer will also stop receiving communications from BetBetBet.

Where a Customer has excluded themselves (either temporarily or permanently), they must not establish, or transact using, another BetBetBet Customer Account or do any other act intended to circumvent their self-exclusion.

Where a Customer has excluded themselves (either temporarily or permanently), their self-exclusion cannot be revoked unless the Customer completes and provides BetBetBet with a 'Self-Exclusion Revocation Form' wherein they declare that:

They wish to revoke their self-exclusion and resume wagering via their BetBetBet Customer Account;
They are aware of the Responsible Gambling Tools available on the BetBetBet platform;
They are cognizant of the risks of gambling and gambling beyond their means, accept those risks, are of sound mind and in control of their actions, and that they do not have a gambling problem; and
They are aware of the gambling support services available to them.

Upon the expiry of a temporary self-exclusion period, the Customer's access to the BetBetBet platform will be automatically restored, and the Customer can resume betting with BetBetBet. If, at this point, the Customer wishes to extend their period of temporary self-exclusion or to permanently self-exclude, they must a submit new 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request via the My Account section on any of our wagering channels, via Live Chat or by sending us an email to [email protected].

A request to deactivate a BetBetBet Customer Account is not the same as, and does not have the same effect as, a request to temporarily or permanently self-exclude.

Please note that a 'Take A Break' or permanent self-exclusion request submitted via the BetBetBet platform (via My Account, Live Chat or Email) is only effective with BetBetBet. Excluding yourself from the BetBetBet platform will not affect your ability to access the websites of other wagering providers. If you have decided to self-exclude from the BetBetBet platform, we strongly encourage you to also self-exclude from any other wagering provider with whom you have an account. If a Customer wishes to exclude themselves from betting with other wagering operators, they must arrange this directly with those operators. BetBetBet will not do this on behalf of the Customer.
