Responsible Gaming
Our Commitment to Safe Gaming
At Alpine Honey, we are committed to promoting responsible gaming practices. Online pokies should be enjoyed as a form of entertainment only, never as a way to earn money or solve financial problems. We encourage all players to gamble within their means and to maintain control over their gaming activities.
Age Verification
Online gambling in New Zealand is strictly for individuals aged 18 years and older. By accessing Leo Vegas Online Pokies through alpinehoney.co.nz, you confirm that you are of legal gambling age in your jurisdiction. We take age verification seriously and reserve the right to request proof of age at any time.
Warning Signs of Problem Gambling
If you recognise any of the following signs in your own behaviour, you may be developing a gambling problem:
- Gambling with money you cannot afford to lose
- Chasing losses by gambling more to recover money lost
- Spending more time or money on gambling than intended
- Hiding gambling activities from friends, family, or partners
- Neglecting work, school, or personal responsibilities due to gambling
- Borrowing money to gamble or pay gambling debts
- Feeling anxious, irritable, or depressed when unable to gamble
- Failed attempts to reduce or stop gambling
- Using gambling to escape problems or relieve stress
- Lying about the extent of your gambling activities
Self-Help Tools
Leo Vegas and most responsible online casinos offer tools to help you maintain control:
- Deposit Limits: Set a maximum amount you can deposit within a specific time period (daily, weekly, or monthly)
- Loss Limits: Restrict the amount of money you can lose during a gaming session
- Reality Checks: Receive periodic reminders of how long you've been playing and how much you've spent
- Self-Exclusion: Temporarily or permanently exclude yourself from accessing your gaming account
- Time-Out: Take a break from gambling for a set period without closing your account
We strongly encourage you to use these tools proactively as part of your responsible gaming strategy.
