Responsible Gaming
Gaming Should Be Entertainment
At Ads on Wheels, we believe gambling should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only. It is not a way to earn money or solve financial problems. Please gamble responsibly and only with money you can afford to lose.
Age Verification
You must be 18 years of age or older to participate in online gambling in Australia. If you are under 18, please do not access any gambling services. It is illegal for minors to gamble.
All players must verify their age and identity before creating an account or placing bets.

If you experience any of the following, you may have a gambling problem:
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Hiding your gambling activity from family or friends
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Neglecting work, school, or family responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money or using credit to fund gambling
- Feeling anxious or irritable when unable to gamble
- Using gambling to escape problems or negative emotions
- Lying about the extent of your gambling
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Jeopardising relationships, job, or education due to gambling
If you recognise any of these signs in your behaviour, please seek help immediately.
